        Too bad Labour has aligned itself with the Tories on Brexit. I can't vote Labour at the next election because I'm a Remainer. #dumbbritain

        The Tories would have a mandate to continue only if at least 50% of the country voted for them or Labour. i.e. pro Brexit.

        LibDems didn't get that remain fightback vote they've been expecting, Labours swing not as bad as anticipated. We only have 2 options #JC4PM

        But Labour are pro Brexit. Brexit is still the number one issue whatever anyone says. I'm unable to vote Labour for the first time in a GE.

        Labour are calling for economy to be centre of negotiations as opposed to immigration from Tories.

        Brexit is already having a direct negative impact on the economy. The two are inseparable. Growth is 0.3% - that's close to recession.

        So vote against the Tories hard Brexit rather than contributing to their mandate

        I think now's the time to launch that coup the PLP was so keen on last year.

        Polling so low they'd probably get a bump from changing the leader.

        Tory's lead halved in the polls since election called - share of the vote yesterday was Cons 38%, Lab 27% . Not great but not doomed . Yet.
