It's not going to save them from the food riots. Just wait till the power goes off - then they'll be slinking back to Tory HQ for hot cocoa and a fresh Daily Mail.

What do we want?

Pragmatic, evidence-based policy!

When do we want It?

After an appropriate period of research, and a pilot!

All the more fun to watch when they cave in to the conservatives. It's what centrists do. Always.

Reminds me of this classic "Hom Sap" strip.

I remember they had this pinned to the wall of the Liverpool Lib Dems office in the 1990s.

You may laugh, Jim. But what would you do if the evidence suggested pragmatic policy that didn't fit your ideologically centrist position, eh?

Given that the Labour Party under St. Corbyn are facilitating BREXIT so that they can one day implement their futuristic policy of nationalising the railways, the Independent Group are now the real Opposition...
