Neither major party leader in the UK has captured the mood of the public which is 'Forget Brexit and get on with making the UK on equal par with France and Germany rather than a small anti-immigration backwater with high levels of unemployment! Add to that the main European trading partner of all fascist countries (I include the current USA) and you wouldn't be far wrong! As The Observer writes today: 'The lack of political leadership from the government has been matched on the opposition benches. Labour continues to fudge its position to, it feels, its own political advantage. But its failure to adopt a firm stance over membership of the single market and customs union is letting the government off the hook. At some point, the Labour leadership must consider how the party weighs its short-term electoral interests against the long-term interests of its core voters: official forecasts shared with MPs last week leave no doubt that it is Labour’s strongholds that will be among the parts of the country worst hit. As the leadership vacuum deepens, the media debate continues to grow more acrimonious, couched in the toxic language of traitors, enemies of the people and secret plots to thwart democracy. We have never felt further from the common ground that must be established to bridge the margin between those who voted for Remain and Leave. No one seems up to the task, least of all the Prime Minister, May, who increases the risk of a popular backlash against any final deal every additional day she pretends to the country that Britain can have it all in order to hold her warring party together. It is irresponsible in the extreme.'
