The say this election was all about Brexit but was it really about immigration and ethnicity?

Nah it's Brexit.

If people were that motivated by immigration then surely Labour would have been obliterated in 2010 after Blair allowed about 8 million people in.

Some of us also do not like the Party being hijacked by self-interested groups not conducive to UK Plc; we do not like the Party focused too firmly on buying the votes from a certain minority group.

wrong hole- nice tosee someone saying what most people think ..spot on

no it was about Brexit. nobody ever doubted many working class labout voters were at best zenophobes - Brexit gave then a chance to articulate their prejudices. now they'll have to live with the results because they will be the ones that suffer

and 5 years from now they'll still be blaming non-whites for their woes

waycist, zenafobe, bigot, etc,,,,

It's like the EU referendum all over again,  the losers just not taking it well at all

blame anyone but ourselves (labour)   until we get the voters to change their attitude (lansman)   what a vicious lot are mmummysmentum - lansman himself is a spiv

Only partly to blame Brexit, many of the people I talked with hated the IRA supporting leadership,understandable when so many working class voters served in the military or had sons and relatives over the last 50 years there. Plenty didn't like the idea that Jews felt so unwelcome that they feared staying in a country we are proud of for tolerance. We could see through the shiftiness and evasiveness of the leadership response. Older voters recalled the three day week and non stop strikes of the 70's,it was a no brainer to switch votes. Labour's job now is to root out the Marxist cancer that destroyed the party last week.

lol  the patriot bollocks again

utter sh1te , all playing the spiv ruling agenda , how thick must you be

cannon fodder how thick is that

I hope you aren't on the listening committee that Labour will be forming anx, likely to be in opposition for two decades

I did not switch my vote, but a lot did

I preferred that society even though strikes were a bit of a nuisance

When Thatcher came in I thought she was evil, crushed the working man

What is Marxist about the Labour party?
