    Well quite, I am curious as to how the vehement anti-Brexit people will go, and there is quite a lot of them.

    Is it impossible that they see the whole thing as a Tory made mess and vote accordingly.

    I wouldn't be surprised.

    However will UKIP voters still vote UKIP? they had 12% of seats last time.

    There are a lot of fed up labour supporters too so I don't know where they will vote.

    Not as simple as that though. There's people for and against brexit in both camps. IMO tt's far more likely a pro-brexit labour voter would switch to the tories than a anti-brexit tory voter moving to Corbyn's labour or the lib dems.

    Given Corbyn's abysmal performance during the referendum and since (doesn't even mention Brexit in his statement just now ffs) no one anti-Brexit would vote for that joker

    You also have to appreciate that an awful lot of Labour supporters want Corbyn gone at any cost and may see voting tactically (or not at all) as a means to that end.

    As to Brexit, it doesn't split on Party lines. Labour's traditional base is pro-Brexit, while many of the LibDems' traditional heartlands in the southwest are pro-Brexit and won't respond well to an anti-Brexit message and thus will probably stay Tory. The LibDems may pick up seats in urban areas, but that is most likely to be at the expense of Labour rather than the tories. Meanwhile, the tories have the most disciplined and homogenous party and voter base, meaning they should romp home.

    There's also 4 million UKIP voters likely to vote Tory this time around.

    Well few if any of them will vote for a Corbyn-led Labour party - despite many being traditional Labour voters.

    The fact is that, whatever else happens, Labour is almightily fùcked.

    I cannot pretend to understand politics. I simply see every one of them as being liars and treat them all with equal disdain.

    It's why I've never voted.
