    Just seeing something about Labour party MPs leaving. After seeing what has gone on with brexit can anyone of any age remember this country having such a broken political system? I'm not just talking about the clueless Conservative party, i'm talking too about that joke called the Labour party. We are left with one party who are not fit to be in office and one party who should never be allowed any where near that office.

    What a complete and utter shambles.

    Has it ever been any different?
    Labour were a shambles under Kinnock, Thatcher managed to hide the divisions due to the large majority, Labour under Blair was the same

    The 7 that have broken free will have no future in politics now, forgotten in weeks, while they are spot on re Corbyn they are out of step with the majority that voted leave...

    They always end up back in politics, you would have to commit mass murder to the benefits of being a gravy train sponger. None of them leave, they always end up with a cushy number in a related field.

    Didn’t they form the SDP who then eventually merged with the Liberals?

    Politicians of all shapes and colours are behind the times in the 21st century;

    See Honda are shutting in 2022 and going back to Japan, just like Nissan are developing their x-trail in Japan not the north east.
    Why?
    Its all brexit doom and gloom.
    No it isn't, Japan the sneaky buggas have negotiated a zero tarriff with the EU, so why stay here when you can build from your home base.
    So no problem with the UK doing a zero tarriff deal with the EU soon then?
    Stop laughing.

    Chuka Umunna made comments about the electorate that voted leave, well he's a disgrace trying to water down everything that Labour has put forward, which in itself is a mystery to most people.
    Chuka Umunna is a joke along with Lord Adonis a pair of snakes together, if this brexit doesnt happen I hope Farage does as hes threatend and forms a "Brexit" party, that would be a challenge to the remainers in the major parties, their votes would be split between the three major parties where most leavers would vote for the brexit party.
