More bad news for Change UK. When they changed their name over on Twitter, they forgot to hold on to their original handle. It was quickly snapped by a Hard Brexiteer, who's already made his mark on the page. As this page is currently the #2 search when you Google "change uk twitter", this is pretty bad stuff.

What silly sausages.

I've signed up to support them and ready to be selected as a candidate in the June election x

Six of the ChUKa's eleven MPs have left the "party". Heidi Allen (the interim leader). Chukka Umuna, Sarah Wollaston, Angela Smith, Luciana Berger and Gavin Shuker have not applied to join the Lib Dems but it is surely only a matter of time.

RIP Change UK, 2019 - 2019.

Wow, I thought NI21 was the shortest lived political party in the UK but ChangeUK looks likely to beat that record!

Change UK insiders pointed to a longstanding split between Chuka Umunna and Chris Leslie, who have differed on strategy and vied to be the party’s dominant force.

Based on the 6-5 split, it appears Leslie won and Umunna lost.

Nigel Farage has officially launched his new political party, the Brexit Party. Despite his rhetoric about getting thousands of defectors from the Tory ranks, I don't think it is going to amount to much.

It was a complete mess from start to finish, and the motives of most were as far as I'm concerned not in any way honourable.

They all just disagreed with who is leader of the Labour Party and threw their collective toys out of the pram.

Looking at the political spectrum of British society, the most antisemitic group consists of those who identify as very right-wing. In this group about 14% hold hard-core antisemitic attitudes and 52% hold at least one attitude, compared again to 3.6% and 30% in the general population. The very left-wing, and, in fact, all political groups located on the left, are no more antisemitic than the general population. This finding may come as a surprise to those who maintain that in today’s political reality, the left is the more serious, or at least, an equally serious source of antisemitism, than the right.

Disagreed with Leader of the Labour Party doing nothing and ignoring vital issues. Not quite the same thing. When it comes to throwing toys (or more specifically votes) out the pram, nobody beats J.Corbyn esq for self-harm. At least they buggered off like so many in the party wanted them to, rather than hang around for 30 years like small annoying leeches until they could spread their sunny disposition and talents for the good of the party and the country, and do a bang up marvellous job all round, as JC preferred to do.

I'm no fan of Corbyn, but any MP with any ounce of integrity, or as has been opined in this thread "honourable intensions", would have resigned their seat and stood for re-election under a new party.

Even Zac Goldsmith did that and he's a complete [expletive].

Not surprising from power-hungry false-faced Soubry. Wouldn't surprise me for this to be her game plan all along. She's clearly been angling for a media career for a long time.

I would like Soubry a lot if she actually ever stood by a jot of what she says, but everything she says and her whole image is optics. Her voting record is the reverse. To me that's even worse than just being honestly self-centered.

As for Luciana Berger, what a disgrace to false flag actual AS because she didn't like her party leader. If I was a Jewish person I would be ashamed of her. The entire Labour antisemitism scandal is largely media spin. She claims to have received abuse from within Labour... because she received abuse anonymously on twitter and online, with zero proof that any of it came from Labour members. She's aligned that with the fact she was deeply unpopular in her constituency and put it as AS too, rather than being anything to do with her being a rich woman parachuted into the constituency who didn't live there, never attended surgeries or supported the local people, yet still received a princely salary for claiming to do so. But no, it must just be because she was Jewish that people were against her.

The hypocrisy of leaving a party which in 2017 had effectively given all of those MPs an even stronger mandate but then refused to put their argument to the people is deafening, ESPECIALLY when you are campaigning for another bloody public vote.
