General Election - December 12th, 2019

Corbyn should learn from him.

You say very little in a campaign other than what has been agreed with the campaign manager. You ram home the sound bites, constantly and you do nothing that can damage you or the campaign.

Pretty dire for our future is someone who shouts loudest but says the least can sway the nation to back them.

 

[abu13]

Fuck me, Johnson is a lying ****, how can he say the gap between rich and poor is smaller and that child poverty has reduced.

 

[urban genie]

Another fucking lie over child poverty, he may want to watch dispatches this monday

Pretty dire for our future is someone who shouts loudest but says the least can sway the nation to back them.

Sometimes the issue is saying too much.

Corbyn for instance has yet again opened his mouth and damaged both himself, the party and the campaign by saying not all terrorists would serve a full sentence.

Who the fuck has advised him to come out with that right now?

Its basic stuff.

Marr: If you don't mind I'd like to ask you a question?

AF Neil: You still haven't answered my question Mr Johnson! We will not move on until you give me a straight answer.




Now why is Boris hiding from him again?

 

[BlueAnorak]

I’d be staggered if Johnson lost his seat.

Everything is possible, but the lack of much of a Lib Dem vote to siphon votes off and a marxist Labour candidate make defections unlikely.

 

[abu13]

I really shouldnt allow myself to get stressed like this on a Sunday morning. Lie after lie, how can anyone trust a single word he says.

 

[blueinsa]

Marr: If you don't mind I'd like to ask you a question?

AF Neil: You still haven't answered my question Mr Johnson! We will not move on until you give me a straight answer.




Now why is Boris hiding from him again?

Because his advisers and campaign managers are doing their jobs correctly is the truth.

He doesnt have to go on and potentially damage himself.

Sadly have to agree. Corbyn is right in one respect to avoid knee jerk responses in favour of a more measured approach but it isn’t what the voting public want to hear or have the concentration span for

Boris dictating the interview.

 

[abu13]

What a waste of time that was, no wonder he wants to avoid Neil.

Extraordinary
"Jeremy Corbyn has told Sky News that convicted terrorists should "not necessarily" serve their full prison sentences automatically after Boris Johnson said violent offenders "must serve every day of their sentence, with no exceptions". The leaders' comments come in the wake of the London Bridge terror attack, which left two civilians dead.
The attacker, 28-year-old Usman Khan, was a convicted terrorist who was wearing an electronic tag after being released halfway through a 16-year prison sentence for plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange. Speaking to Sky's Sophy Ridge, the Labour leader said there were lessons to be learned from the incident and there should be a "full investigation" into the circumstances around the attacker's prison sentence and subsequent release."

Nowt wrong with that.

 

[BlueAnorak]

Never answers just repeats his campaigning, a fucking disgrace using this terror attack as a campaigning tool rather than discuss what are the causes what can be done to prevent it happening agian

To be fair, Yevette Cooper started that particular ball rolling yesterday.

 

[blueinsa]

Nowt wrong with that.

Right now, at this moment in time he couldn't be more fucking wrong to come out with it.

He is a dick and his advisers and campaign managers even more so for letting him spout it.

They wouldn't win a high school head pupil race never mind a GE.

 

[BlueAnorak]

You might as well be one of the fruit loops over there!

QAnon not on your favourites, then...?

So you're not prepared to review the evidence so you change tac by dissing the messenger.
Guido was the only source I could quickly find where all the evidence was available in one place. It certainly wasn't available at the Canary - another web side I browse on occasion. Does that make me a Momentum member?

 

[mcfc1632]

Corbyn has opened his mouth and put another 10 Tories into seats I see.

Not like him to go against public opinion and suggest not all terrorists should serve a full sentance.

Those poor terrorists....

What's he said this time - guessing soft on sentencing?

Not watching the programmes today

Doubtless I will get flack for saying this, but genuinely this is what I think:

Were we not i the middle of a GE campaign, Corbyn would be questioning the wrongful "execution" of the terrorist by British police and calling for a "full investigation" etc etc. A few shallow words of regret followed by monologues of criticism of the government, the police and anyone else he can think of.

It's in his DNA. He's only holding his tongue because a GE is on and his "slip" about letting prisoners out early is absolutely what he thinks. Not 3 weeks ago he was saying Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi should have been arrested. He said the death of Osama Bin Laden was "a tragedy".

I think he's an absolute wanker.

 

[George Hannah]

Nowt wrong with that.

Except that he says it in the immediate aftermath of an act by a terrorist which would not have been possible if he had served his full term. Shadow AG Chakribati when asked the same question on Marr declined to answer on the grounds it would be inappropriate to discuss the matter so soon.

He was asked about early release and said it would have to be looled at individualy, Sophie Ridge who was interviewing then said "so not necessarly" and he said well no if you put it that way.

He then went on to talk about how the probabtion service needs to be looked at and why such a person was allowed out on early release in the first place and allowed to attend this confrence outside his electronic tag boundry and unsupervised.

He also supported the police using shoot to kill, which is a new for him.

And incidentally, it is pretty obvious Marr is a Labour voter. Friendly relaxed chat with Chakribati, compared to him trying to tear strips of Johnson and talking over him when Johnson is trying to answer a question.
