LABOUR PARTY SET TO BE DESTROYED AFTER BEING FORCED INTO GENERAL ELECTION BY OTHER PARTIES

Britain is finally going to the polls to resolve the Brexit mess with a general election to be held in December. The date will be either the 9th or the 12th of December.

Even though the Labour Party finally agreed to this election, make no mistake about it, Labour definitely does not want it. This is because it is the political party that is in the most awkward position in a political landscape that has been deeply polarised by the issue of Brexit. 

While the Conservatives have moved increasingly to the Brexit side in order to stop Nigel Farage's Brexit Party destroying them, and now have a big lead in the polls, the Lib Dems and the SNP have positioned themselves as "Hard Remainer" parties. 

This has left Labour somewhere in the middle, and in the process deeply divided. 

While Labour's Metropolitan elites are "Hard Remainers," much of the party's grass roots, Northern, working-class vote is sympathetic to Brexit, and many Labour MPs come from heavily Brexit supporting areas. 

This means that the Tories, the SNP, and the Lib Dems all expect to reap the rewards of an electorate deeply polarised on this issue, while Labour looks set to suffer from his confused and dishonest posturings on the issue of Brexit.

The likely result is that the SNP and the Lib Dems will make big gains at Labour's expense, while overall the Conservatives will win a landslide, except in Scotland where the SNP will win most of the seats and make renewed calls for independence based on this.
