With Boris Johnson poised to win a majority in Thursday’s #GeneralElection2019, Remainers could be about to lose their 3 1/2 year fight to stop Brexit bloom.bg/348iGmm

3 problems currently plaguing the remain side
1⃣ The Liberal Democrat’s controversial Brexit policy
2⃣ Feuds within the People’s Vote campaign
3⃣ Labour’s ambiguity bloom.bg/348iGmm
