LIB DEM OWN GOAL

The Lib Dems, remember them?  Just over five years ago they were in government.  Now they have 11 MPs.  They are currently choosing their fifth leader in five years and a snazzy Twitter account was set up to follow the contest.  The competitors, if anyone cares, are Sir Ed Davey and that one with the black spectacles who looks like a headmistress.  On Thursday the Twitter account in question published a poll asking whether people would vote to rejoin the European Union.

It didn't go well for them.

While it's never pleasant to kick someone while they're down, in the case of remoaners who just can't accept defeat more than four years on - fair game.  Former Brexit Party MEP Martin Daubney led the pile on...

It's clear that the Lib Dems will not be moving on any time soon and will quite possibly disappear from the House of Commons altogether at the next election.
