I don’t have an issue with the coverage they get; in fact, I’d rather they (and others) got more coverage, because I hold the media responsible for oversimplifying our politics and driving a two-party story, all because it makes their job easier. They’ve been disproportionately fucked since the coalition (seriously, how are the LibDems still getting flak for it while the Tories don’t) but I don’t think it unrealistic to see them holding a decent number of seats again in future.
As for the revoke article 50 policy, I have no problem with it at all.
I’m not sure what you want me to say at this point. I understand why people might have some quarrel with them, but the extent of it, the vigour behind it, still seems totally disproportionate to me.Funkstain wrote:That’s all fine, but your comment was that you didn’t understand the bile they get.
