You thinking that has cheered me up no end!

Bookmarked. I'll quote you on it on the 13th and we can both rejoice in your cheeriness then.

You're mistaking @The perfect fumble and I as posters who actually give a sh1t about you either now or on the 13th.

I think Labour will get trounced and Boris will get a majority of circa 50.

The Tories are heading in the wrong direction I’m pretty confident My hung parliament prediction will be correct. You may have to let the pool boy go I’m afraid.

Don't say that I have kids to feed!

Don’t fret it’s chippy if you work harder and the kids wash his 3 beemers you can scrummage through his bins for leftovers, remember Saturday is couples night so plenty of the buffet goes to waste.

He does let the hounds loose at midnight so make sure you have cleared the moat.

Over the Gardner’s dead body, no one gets the third beema

Allo! Allo!

And the one yesterday had the Conservatives leading by 14%.. Interesting because Sauvation got it spot on in the run up to the 2017 election.
Average lead still 10%

Ah well never mind eh Len.

You read it?

Got half way through the 2nd line...

Did I give up too soon? Is it worth going back to?

If this lot of Tories get 40% plus I’m seriously going to go full on Guy Fawkes.

The caring voice of the Labour party :-)

I'm not even worth spending someone else's money on.

 

[mcfc1632]

To be honest, I am so disillusioned with politics at the moment that I might consider breaking the habit of a lifetime and vote @Labour IF they had a more centrist approach and crucially a new front bench...

It would be nice also to be told that we'll all pay more tax to improve services instead of the BS being peddled about the top 5%

So would a lot of people, but...……...

It will not be a more centrist leader.

Action was taken at the conference to ensure that there will be hard-left, preferably female, joint deputy that will then be a candidate - so it will be RLB or someone of similar persuasions

That was when I started to think that perhaps the hard-left had realised that they will lose the next election - because of their actions to secure control over the selection of the next leader

Or sell one of my fleet of BMWs.

Good grief no.

See above.

If two breakdown you will feel foolish, close down the west wing of chippy towers

Let's hope not, I want both parties to struggle and change leaders. And some common sense to enter parliament.

This is what I want.

It is incredibly hard to call. A lot of polls suggesting a comfortable Tory win but I think they have run an awful campaign. Johnson is so clearly unfit to be PM, the more you look at his record the more dishonest he is and his core message is so limited. It is basically Brexit + a bit of spending, he has been terrible when debating. May was equally awful. But those that want brexit want it done done and they have a clear choice. Farage has engineered a total capitulation and that will help Tories (expect a Farage nighthood in the new year).

On the flip side labour are equally awful but they have been for years and at least they are inching toward remain.

It will come down to the numbers of voters willing to shift allegiance to something else which will be predominantly brexit people backing tories v's remainers tactical voting and new younger votes voting for anything but tory. I would think tories getting between 310 and 350 seats is where it will land. The only certainty is the end of Corbyn.

Gotcha!

 

[Ban-jani]

It was you struggling yesterday trying to grasp how a hung Parliament de-radicalises Labour? Yes, it was, despite Len and I trying our best, you couldn't grasp it.

Well, I understand now, there's no malice in you, you're just relentlessly dim, you can't grasp this either.

I do perfectly understand that but that wasn’t the point either of you made, again you’re trying to move the debate because you’ve lost it.

Len was saying Labour’s tenure is much more temporary than Brexit and that’s why I should back Labour.

Whilst I agree with him on Brexit I think given Labour’s radical approach will inflict long term changes to our system too.

That was the debate.

You can call me dim all you want but I’m not dim enough to fall for your constant attempts to change the subject.

Now, are you going to explain to me why the real problem with Labour antisemitism is because British Jews support Israel?

I know you're only jesting mate, but you highlight a supreme irony.

On the one hand, we have the lefty idiots on this thread, most if not all of whom are motivated by their snouts in the trough, wanting more and more freebies at zero cost to themselves.

And then there's me, not remotely rich, but very concerned about havoc a Labour victory would bring, and I'm portrayed as a rich twat with his snout in the trough, when the opposite is true. That cretin Ken Dum has not stopped going on about the 3 beemers, despite the fact I just own one, an 11 year old 3-series. I'd describe him as a dickhead, but it would be insulting to dickheads.

I expect them to get 40%+, they always do. The key question is where.
