Remind us, how many people voted for Gordon Brown to be Prime Minister?
Democratic, hey?
When Brown took over, he pursued a broadly similiar manifesto and policies, whereas the Tory manifesto was in tatters even before this vote- whoever takes over will be plotting a new course. There’ll be very little continuity. And more importantly, he certainly wasn’t taking charge of negotiating our way out of the EU- and though we’ve voted to exit, nobody’s had any chance to vote on what that should look like.
The basic point is absolutely true but the situation is very different.
Joining the tories to try and mess with them and the democractic process is exactly as contemptible as when people wanted to do it to Labour- why would you want to sink to that level? The tittering arseholes who thought that was a good idea will still beat you with experience, and along the way you’ll have given up any moral stance you could have taken, and only learned more about how to be a ****.
