The movement nick named "purple momentum" has been gathering pace in recent days, hoping to change the face of the tory party to a more hardlined eurosceptic one.
It seems in the UK, our two main party's are tearing themselves apart, brexit has been a devisive issue in both party's but its uncovered massive schism's between internal ideologys with progressive labour MP's finding better allies on the brexit issue with the tory free market capitalists then there unionist roots, and vice versa for the nationalist elements of the tory party and the unionists.
Only time will tell how chuck's new Labour 2.0 will turn out, what the effect of losing 7 MP's will be to labour's ability to pose opposition, and also what the fallout will be of the tory plot to shed remainers.
Not to mention the growing specter of a far more right leaning ukip waiting like a hawk in the wings.
Looks like its gonna be an interesting time in downing Street in the next few months.
