    She splits opinion but worse than Oliver Dowden? Not sure about that mind.

    I can't believe how **** they are at this. There'll be a professional campaign team costing a fortune running this and it just looks like a complete **** show. Doesn't matter what your policies are, if you don't look competent and credible you won't get anywhere.

    Even if you think Labour will be no better, if the Tories get in again, what does that say to them? "You can be as absolutely incompetent and corrupt as you like, and you'll still win". Get these twats out.

    i reckon when someone simply states exactly what they CAN do and what will be difficult to do...without blaming everything on 'the other lot' they will win by a landslide, i feel fairly sure that enough of the UK public have heard and seen more than enough of false promises and straight forward lies that a straight talking party will be more than welcome.

    this current lot have basically taken turns at PM and every one of them have been dire while making sure they are safe, getting a healthier bank account (now and for the future) and helped friends/family/@rselickers to billions of free money...this job HAS to have accountabilty or it will never change.

    There's almost a zero chance the Tories stay in, only lifelong Tories will vote for them now, all so called floating voters or constituencies with even a sliver of Labour votes are going to turn for this election, Labour are definitely going in because they are the only realistic alternative. An interesting data point we can glean from this will be what third parties can do and if they can amount anything significant that they can take into elections in the future.

    If you're someone who thinks both parties are ****, now is the time to have a longer time horizon in terms of politics, Labour are definitely getting in, Tories are definitely getting the boot, I will give Labour a fair shake but there's little doubt in my mind that they do not hold the answers to our problems.

    All I have wanted Starmer to do for the last year. He cant lose, even if he fluffs a line or two. He just needs to give us a plan that is realistic and that he can stick to. The latter part, in Starmers case, is where the doubt is.

    I get so frustrated with modern politics. The Opposition aren't just allowed to do the job of scrutinising the Government anymore, they are constantly judged as a government in waiting. We've finally reached the point where Labour will publish their manifesto for government, let's judge them on that.

    She's actually one of very very few politicians I actually like.
    Working class anarl.
    That's why the silver spoon tory arseholes despise her.
    They only want corrupt Oxford Cambridge tossers.


    Just as an aside. That Boris bastard used to beat up working class oiks with his high society mates when at Oxbridge.
    I'd like to beat the fat prick to a pulp just like his dickhead father does to women.
    I'd never get sick of punching them :emoticon-0148-yes: <laugh>

    People who say 'arguably this' or 'arguably that' usually don't have anything to back it up ...

    ... it's just their opinion dressed up as something deeper.

    It would still surprise me if Bromsgrove (where I live now) were to go to Labour, but Sedgefield (where I'm from) went Tory, which I equally would never have thought would happen, do there's hope.

    That's not correct.
