@PaulKirkby3 Flags are banned on London taxis. All flags, not just England ones. This is to maintain safety for pedestrians and other drivers. It’s a rule that was brought in in 2012, when both the government and mayor were Conservative. Quit the faux outrage.

@Baznut @Andrew_Adonis @g_m_hodgson Just so you understand, I want to stop Brexit more than I want a Lab govt. 75% of Lab voters now support Remain. Labour members 90%+ Remain. 90% Labour MPs are Remainers. The party has voted twice for a second Referendum. Calling it a pro Brexit party is just silly.

@Metienne12 @BloomfieldSJ @MikeSegalov All it does is shift The Overton Window rightwards. Much of the xenophobic language in use today would have been considered offensive only 5 years ago. That's all that making policies to appease extremists has achieved; its legitimised them and effectively made them mainstream.

@ryxnf “Many Remainers” is a very subjective phrase that’s difficult to gauge. I would say certainly not “Most Remainers” though. On the other hand, I put it to you that “Most Leavers” have absolutely no idea, not a single clue why they support Brexit. There’s no parity between the two
