Define better?

Being surrounded by Brexit Party supporters doesn't sound like much fun.

It's an interesting point though - I suspect geography probably has more do do with this than we think.

I live by the coast. We have long sandy beaches, clean air, and we're surrounded by forests and mountains. I'm guessing that this probably leaves me with a happy and optimistic disposition.

Where do you live?

Outer Metropolitan area...On the eastern point on top of the Chilterns. Lovely and green, lots of wild life. Yet only 30 miles'ish from Westminster. Well served by rail and air links to the rest of the world. Predominantly occupied by AB category, although C1 is rapidly rising in the area understandably as children grow up and commence their careers. Male vs Female is about 50/50.  And as good as all households are married. Mainly English, and only 9 out of the 329 are from the EU in the area (including myself). Housing 50/50 detached and semi-detached. Likewise 50/50 mortgaged vs owned outright. Only 1 social housing, and only 2 rented properties. A pretty even mixture between employed, self-employed, unemployed and retired. I'm actually in the unemployed category as well as I don't consider myself to be retired, nor am I self-employed. Crime is relatively high unfortunately, mainly burglaries and vehicle theft. Average download speed is 27Mbps.

I hope that answered your question

Luton, then. Sounds lovely.

Way too far from the sea for my liking.

I used to have my boat in Poole, Dorset. Didn't take too long to get there. But granted it would be nice to be able to stroll outside and get some fresh sea air. We do pop over to Aldeborough and Thorpeness regularly. Also very nice.

Can't say that I tend to talk to strangers in the street about politics. I leave that for on AVForums.

Easy choice for me but it ultimately depends on what Boris and Nige come up with prior to the next election.

Not straightforward for me.

Boris has withdrawn the whip from my remain biased MP, so it would seem straightforward to vote for his replacement.  But what if the present incumbant stands, and looks like the best option to keep Labour or Lib Dems out?

And what if it becomes obvious that we are staying in the EU?  Then I might be tempted to abstain or vote TBP, but that could contribute to letting Corbyn in.....

Realistically, any vote for the Brexit Party is a going to help Labour.

I can’t see Boris doing any deals with Nigel.

Tom Watson wants Jezza to fully back remain which seems a great idea to me. You end up with the Leave and Remain choices (Tory vs Labour) in place of a new referendum and you get an election in the same package!

Johnson has slammed Farage today it seems for offering to help him. Said he'll never do a deal with him.

But then Johnson spouts a lot of things!

I do think though it is some weird Brexiter fantasy to bring the two of them together.

Like the Gatekeeper and the Keymaster in Ghostbusters. And I guess that makes Brexit Gozer!

Thankfully the Ghostbusters put paid to that crap.
