Right wing parties 47%, left wing parties 47%. Interesting. Also, with those numbers, First Past The Post will never give a fair or democratic result.

As Brexit negotiator, you made a holy show of yourself, Frost. Genuinely astounding that you now think you can pontificate about post-Brexit arrangements, as if you haven’t left behind you a stinking shitshow that has weakened and diminished our country for at least a generation.

This country is going down the pan. Quickly. If we don't rejoin the EU at this pace the UK will be poorer than Poland by 2040. Sod trying to make the far right happy, I want our leaders to do what's best for the country. Otherwise many of us will retire to poverty.

Juries can acquit people who are prosecuted under bad or illiberal laws. For example peaceful protestors prosecuted under draconian "anti-terrorism" laws. That power provides a crucial defence against an overly-authoritarian State. Removing that power weakens our civil liberties.

We strongly oppose the introduction of the international student levy. It suggests a lack of understanding of the financial pressure on higher education. It is estimated that a
single cohort of international students provides up to £37 billion net contribution to the UK already
