Am I seeing this right or is the conservative party about to die out?
They’re definitely having issues since they’re still trying to play both sides of the Brexit card. Labour is having similar issues as well. I think some of the Lib Dems’ and Brexit’s strength is because they were seen as the big winners in last week’s EU elections and they have clear stances re: Brexit.
The Brexiteers and the Lib Dems are sure to make some impressive gains, largely because these parties really have nowhere else to go but up. But I do not think the Conservatives will quite go the way of the Indian National Congress and be reduced to irrelevance. I think Labour will have the edge going into the next election, which is a real pity
