General Election - 4th July 2024

[Blue Maverick]

Have Labour said theyll sit down with the train unions etc to sort all that shit out? They need to get a grip of HMRC I’m still owed around £20k on my pension the tories stole and it’s been dragged out because of that. Only 4 weeks to go and Roland Rat amd his twats will be history

YouGov poll due at 17.00 today, should hopefully be a belter broken down in every constituency.

Is there a potential problem with those who don't usually bother voting? Lazy Tory voters might get off their arses on July 4th if they think they might lose and voters of other parties might stay at home confident of a victory even if they don't vote.

Yeah point taken but I think on the whole the people interviewed certainly on TV who are apathic will remain so.

Could also work the other way if people realise that for example a Labour vote in a 'safe' Tory seat would actually matter.

Today’s debate so far seems to be National Security vs Needing your birth certificate to go to a public toilet.

A lot of Labour's communication seems to be stressing that nothing is guaranteed, and often sounds quite desperate to avoid complacency.

What you're describing is just one possible effect. There's equally likely to be people who assume the Tories will lose, and who won't want to bother voting for the loser. Others who want to vote for the winners.

It's also likely, that while the Tories will spend more money, and be able to post out more letters, they won't have anything like the number of volunteers knocking on doors as Labour and the Lib Dems.

On election day, if you live in a Lab/Lib Dem target and you've at any time given an indication that you might vote for them, then someone is almost certain to knock on your door. You'll be told how important it is to get to the polling station and offered help to get there if you need it. The Tories don't have anything like the same physical presence.

But you can swan up in a dinghy and disappear into the night.

Guess that’s why the incumbent government aren’t debating national security then.

The same public toilets that no longer exist because of a decade and a half of funding cuts to public services?

hahahaha please please please please please do it Nigel.

Takes more votes off the Conservatives and I'll piss my sides laughing when he's told to fuck off once again...

Mind you his announcement is probably to say he's got a new podcast out, or a book or some sort of GoFundMe to buy an air rifle to shoot at dinghys. It'll be some grift or other.

Or he’ll say he’s standing and fail to submit the relevant paperwork in time and miss the cut off.

The only downside is the **** will never be off the telly for a month.

It baffles me how this fraudster still has an audience.

Are there really thousands of people there that thick as to listen to a word he says. Lots of Facebook-dwelling FOCs I suppose.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

The worst thing he could say is that Reform aren’t standing anymore, but I think they’ve not had the influence he thought he’d have yet, so his ego might not be ready to admit defeat.
