Labour were in power. Labour overspend. Labour left a note saying all the monies have gone. These are simple things that all feed into each other and Labour didn't bother defending themselves against it properly. It would take a far more convoluted and implausible chain of reasoning to place the blame for Brexit at Labour's door.Diluted Dante wrote:I'm not so sure on that.

Yeah it's not like one day things will be fine and then suddenly Brexit happens and the country collapses. But the Tories won't be coming back for another election for 5 years. They will oversee the whole thing.n0face wrote:Brexit is going to go on for so long everybody will get a chance to take a share of the blame.
