General Election 2019 – Could Brexit Party Cause An Upset In Beverley & Holderness

When the current PM Boris Johnson took over the top job he promised to deliver Brexit by 31 October. He failed.

While he tries to blame everyone else other than himself for not delivering Brexit it is his own party who have been central to kicking the can down the road.

All of this could see loyal Conservative voters switch alliances. Those wanting out will naturally drift towards the Brexit Party, they are the only group 100pc committed to leaving the EU.

Others who want to remain in Europe also have a clear choice. That choice in the Liberal Democrats.

Both Labour and the Conservatives are split when it comes to Brexit within their own ranks.

All of this will have an impact on the national picture. While locally it will also have a huge impact on the result.
