    [News] Alastair Campbell expelled.

    I'm very sceptical of polling these days, especially when the demographic of leave voters tend to be less politically active generally and they are still disproportionately done using the internet - but I take your point, although I believe other polls have also suggested it remains neck and...

    When I was doing my degree modules in International Law, it was basically the introductory topic to introduce undergraduates to the concept, hardly rocket science. Arguments it was legal: - Vaguely worded UNSC resolution - can't remember exactly but something like "authorises reasonable force"...

    Apart from supporting EU membership/a second referendum, how can you possibly vote Green on the basis of your support for Alastair Campbell? Have you cross referenced his views with their manifesto?
