Interesting polling from YouGov this morning on how prominent political figures are perceived to view Brexit.

If she betrays Brexit people won't believe she's done so as a Leaver.
Edit: I see @TOPPING got there first.
And these are Mrs May's "allies"?
Comedy gold
Arlene is quite right - this plan would place NI in a desperate position, unable potentially to freely trade with GB. Looks like May is taking orders from Robbins again. That always ends well.
What happened to ‘it is up to the EU to come back with proposals’? That was a decent approach. Planning the next set of concessions when yet again the EU have not moved at all is crazy.
Mark Reckless is on the lowest rung.
He’s lower than a snake’s bollocks.
Brexit means he loses his job, which is one of the few upsides of Brexit.
FPT, the 48/42 split against Kavanaugh pretty much mirrors the split in generic polling. Democrats overwhelmingly oppose him, Republicans overwhelmingly support him.
I expect this makes it a bit more likely that Democrats win the House, and a bit harder for Red State Democrats to retain their seats in the Senate.
If anyone wants to know how different the public view politics then this is pretty high. I think most people on this board would peg May as a pragmatic remainer, and also Cameron and Blair as more ardent remainer.
Vince Cable is interesting, and I’m not sure it is necessarily a Libdem issue, insofar as I’m not sure how many people know who he is and which party he is in. Those who know probably figure for most of the positive negative answers.
Corbyn is also interesting because again on here most would probably peg Corbyn as a principled leaver from his voting record, so his fence sitting has probably led to the responses. Only problem is he can’t fence sit indefinitely, and there is probably an upside for SNP and Libdems, if he votes through a deal, and the Tories if he doesn’t.
Lord Farage!!!!!!! Their Lordship's would have an attack of the vapours.
It'll be made a crimson line instead.
We should take back control from these bigots.
Why should we suffer because of 10 DUP MPs.
Did we lose a war?
Arthur Ashkin, Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland win Nobel physics prize
American, Frenchman and Canadian awarded 9m Swedish kronor (£770,000) prize for work on advances in laser physics
Ashkin wins half of the prize for his development of “optical tweezers” which have allowed tiny organisms to be handled with light beams. Mourou and Strickland share a quarter of the prize each “for their method of generating high-intensity, ultra-short optical pulses,” the Nobel committee said.

It will now pay at least $15 per hour, up from $7.25 previously.

Layla Moran will run and I think she will win - she was impressive at our Conference but then every partisan thinks all their speakers are excellent. Some would say there have already been five speeches at the Conservative Conference worthy of Cicero (the Roman not the former contributor on here).
As I'm diametrically opposed to the main plank of LD policy, I'm currently fairly semi-detached in my support but then I look over at the Conservative and Labour parties and see a lot of virtue in political non-alignment but you can't vote Non-Aligned at an election and I always vote.
The LD Party has to accept we will be leaving the EU and should be agitating for a deal as close to BINO as possible in that regard so staying in the CU as a minimum. Hoping somehow the whole thing can be stopped/reversed is simply a fool's errand.
You're arguing against all devolution. The point of devolution is difference in domestic law.
Customs and single market type affairs are foreign matters because they involve international trade and transport of goods, services, and people.
This is not a complicated point.
[I do think abortion should be legal in Northern Ireland but imposing it from Westminster makes a mockery of devolution].
Hang on a sec, I thought it was the EU that wanted to treat us as a third-party country with no special relationship.
The notion of a skills-based immigration policy is the only viable option and hopefully we can move to a system where we treat all applicants the same irrespective of their country of origin.
I'm not averse to students and others coming here, learning here and taking those skills back to their countries - it may disadvantage us marginally but it's for the greater good and we should not oppose the promulgation of good practice and viable and valuable skills.
Nor should we be annoyed if someone comes along and does it better than us and teaches us for learning is ever a dialogue.
It just announced it will now pay at least £10.50 per hour in London, and £9.50 across the rest of the UK.
As in America, the rise will apply to all full-time, part-time, temporary (including those hired by agencies), and seasonal employees from the start of November.
You asked for details of the trusted traveller scheme
But you chose to ignore @Sandpit ‘s post explaining them
Suggest you read that
You should stand for LD leader Stodge.
Because of devolution.
Liberals believe in devolution and localism.
If Boris had won the leadership he'd have kept George in the Cabinet... He wouldn't have sacked him and sent him out the back door.
Lib Dems have failed to differentiate themselves from Labour - they are always attacking the Conservatives not Labour.

Still, it's good that your certainty about the 'technical solution' is based on rather wispy stuff.
Although there are more LD/Con ‘marginals’ than LD/Lab ones. So Labour votes are often the ones to squeeze.
