agree but unfortunately this bias press are going to make this a one subject election, leaving the EU, and people will lap it up while the countries real problems will be ignored as the real reasons to change government.

May will keep her campaign focused on brexit. That's her justification for calling the election.

But not her real reason , the impending criminal action against her bent party is, leaving being used is just more bullshit from her mouth

Another one that has fallen for the media's spin?

For those who don't know, Rupert Murdoch has paid 0 tax in the UK since around 1987. The reason? Cos of the lies he prints whether it's about politics, war, immigration etc.

Yet people decide what he lies about and decide what to believe. It really is laughable because as of now, the U.K. Public have an opportunity to change British politics and have a PM that can't be bought, wants to tax the rich properly. No more Google paying 0.2% in tax or Apple paying 0.01% in tax and we might even see a racist Australian who has so much to say about our country paying tax on his 6.7bn fortune.
Of course that's going to really hurt Mr Murdoch and his empire so what better way to get the public onside and spread lies through all his dailies.

Here is an article by the Independent from July last year, and yes that 75% of articles about Corbyn were either lies or "misrepresentation"

Not read the whole thread but has anybody talked about the Surrey sweetheart deal? The closure of NHS hospitals and the privatisation of the NHS? The embarrassing NI u-turn after the last budget? The decrease in mental health care, that our PM laughed about at PMQT. She really does not care about those that need help, I just hope the British public see through her before it's too late.

And those saying Corbyn couldn't lead the country need to have a look at how Norway did under a socialist government.......and you won't find those links under a Murdoch rag either!
There's little doubt that from day one 'the man' has wanted Corbyn out as a bit like City in footie he has/had the potential to bugger up there comfy little position.

However, people are sheep and will believe almost anything if told it's true enough times.

Corbyn though doesn't seem to be able to get his point across on his ideals and certainly doesn't inspire confidence in his party.
 
I think people are reading way too much in to this election.


I personally think it will be quite a boring campaign on all fronts given the short notice and it’s primarily centred around Brexit policy and not policy related to other national issues. During the election campaign in 2015 nobody knew the UK would be leaving the EU and as a result had no Brexit policy in their manifesto. If May avoided the snap election then Brexit would be painful with the EU bureaucrats claiming at every opportunity that May doesn’t have the backing of her country as she hasn’t won an election. (Although she was elected as an MP and was then elected to be leader..). The House of Lords would also make it difficult to pass any Brexit related law as none of it was in the parties’ manifesto. If the tories gain a further majority in the Commons after this election then the law making process for Brexit policy will be a lot smoother on the Lord’s side.

Then what was the point of the 13 years of socialist government we had? They had their chance to deal with tax dodgers and didn't take it.

I usually vote Labour, but won't be influenced by newspaper headlines. I'll listen to what is said by representatives of each party in proper discussions of their policies and decide. Of course we're still waiting to hear what Corbyn would do if he was elected, it's all pretty much unknown at this stage.
