But these are french fisherman protesting at lack of access to UK waters so how has the UK government lied to them?

The whole thing about fishing was we would control our waters.

Tories win Hartlepool by election by turning a 3000 labour majority into a 7000 tory one.


It is making me laugh on twitter though that quite a few corbynites are claiming starmer should go & using the fact corbyn won Hartlepool as a reason why he should go. Let’s just ignore the tens of seats corbyn lost

There is a serious point though that too many have an attitude of “thick northern racists” and then wonder why they dont win their votes.

Ive seen a few prominent remainers/labour MPs on social media today asking do Hartlepool voters not care about decency or honesty etc or dont they know what htey are voting for etc.

It’s that kind of patrionising attitude that loses votes and labour need to snap out of it in order to win again.

Agreed. It's what lost the Brexit vote, or part of it.
Implying that everyone who was thinking of voting to Leave was a thick racist is not a good way of winning the argument.
