So it seems the Liberal Democrats are fully %100 pro-EU now. They've announced that it's their policy to essentially cancel Brexit, and at their party conference they were openly applauding Guy Verhofstadt as he espoused his dreams of an EU superstate.
Personally I think it's good that they're starting to take an honest position. Obviously they're still not quite honest enough to say "yes, we want an EU army". Though to be fair I think many of the people in and around the Lib Dems simply haven't really thought about it all that much.
I disagree with these pro-EU enthusiasts of course, but they are entitled to their opinion and deserve to see it represented as an option at the polls. It's going to make it hard for the "remain alliance" at any upcoming election though. As it now means the Lib Dems and the Labour Party are taking visibly different stances. So a potential non-aggression pact will be a difficult sell to their members and voters. Meaning it's probably all the more likely that we won't be seeing a GE too soon.
