United We Stand

Lexit and Yellow Tories – Slurs and Vitriol in the election campaign.

This brings me to the inspiration for these pages. The remain side of the campaign are currently tearing at each other, throwing insults, attacking people not policies. And this is going to cause issues if we can’t all see things from each other’s viewpoints. As I have throughout this, I’m going to try and put it the way that I see it as someone not tied to any party, but with a desperate yearning to get rid of this whole Brexit clusterfuck.

Some of these claims and insults have been around for a long time. Some of them died down and then rose again with the campaign. And some of them seem to be relatively new/very specifically linked to this campaign:

Jeremy Corbyn, Labour and Antisemitism
Lexit (Labour Exit)
Yellow Tories
Why doesn’t X party just stand aside? (1) – General argument about multi-party elections
Why doesn’t X party just stand aside? (2) – Lib Dem specific response
Only Jeremy and Boris have a chance to be PM – Response regarding the ITV debate
Only Tories/Labour can form a government and the Lib Dems have refused a coalition
You’re just another Corbynite…
But the Voting Website says…
Austerity & Tuition Fees
