Any Opinions
Richmond Park by election (electing a brexiter) could mean another referendum or the end of this government.
What do you think.

My opinion is that it's not very significant; Richmond is a very wealthy middle-class area that was heavily in favour of remaining in the EU and Goldsmith had made himself fairly unpopular after the Mayoral election, as well as forcing the by-election. I don't think one extra Lib-Dem MP is going to make any difference to this government.

There's no evidence of a major shift of opinion through this one result, but it will be interesting to see how future by-elections go, both in Tory and Labour areas, as we approach the Article 50 thingy.

Hello Chris good to meet you
There is an element of the Titanic and the iceberg in all this all very interesting to a natural by stander.
People are forming their options on misinformation and are not prepared to listen to any opposite view.
How do others see this turning out
