Why those opposed to the Tories should hope that June 23rd fails to resolve the blue team’s #EURef schism

It’s in non-CON interests for the Tory battles to go on and on
A party at war is pretty sight if you are not a supporter. The way this first Monday of the official referendum campaign has gone isn’t doing the Tories any favours and it is going to go on and on.
It is an extraordinary spectacle. A Conservative Chancellor sets out projections of what BREXIT could cost and we see a huge effort from fellow Tories to both discredit the figures and the man itself.
Anyone who comes out with anything that’s vaguely supportive of REMAIN has to reckon on coming under a pile of aggressive abuse from LEAVE backers. Those wanting out are more than ready to play the ball as well as the man.
If the Scottish IndyRef on 2014 is anything to go by this will get louder and stronger the closer we get to the day.
I’m sure that Cameron and his team regard the next eight weeks of party in-fighting is a small price to pay to resolving an issue that has so divided the party since the summer of 1992. The worry must be that battles will l continue after the vote.
Cameron really needs a 10%+ victory.
