Two advantages....first, labor is at the weakest point it’s been since the early 1990s. If you found ten guys who voted twenty years ago for labor and asked the same ten today...at best you’d only have five or six willing to vote for them. Second, it sends a clear message across to the EU that May (99-percent chance of winning) has full support of the public for BREXIT.

She might also be thinking that Le Pen may will the French election, and this might be a good occasion to take advantage of numbers.

June 8 is the day for the legislative elections in France that follow the presidential one.

That's interesting, I was just thinking the opposite. That she has caved to the power cravings of all politicians and wants innumerable terms in office so she's giving the masses another chance to reverse course. I didn't think the original vote was exactly a landslide in favor of leaving the EU. Or am I wrong in that? By the way, given your handle, are you related to Hugh Hefner?
