Another Labour member quits, joins Lib Dems, citing Brexit
To add to the flow from both the Conservatives and from many Labour members, comes this letter from a former Labour, now Liberal Democrat, member in Bristol:
Letter @UKLabour MP in Bristol NW.
Very pro EU MP.
Notifying him that I will not renew my Labour party membership.
I joined the Labour due to Brexit but as they are a Brexit backing party I joined the @LibDems
I will vote for any party to stop Brexit.#Brexit

He’s not alone, as this latest sample of messages shows:
I joined as well from Labour.

But then to carry on voting labour is just to perpetuate the situation. I've joined lib dems from being labour voter. It seems to be the only way to eventually change the system. Maybe one day enough of us will waste our votes to constitute a majority.
