Another new Brexit thread

Primate of All England? Or just Little Ehgland?

A **** monkey.

given that the removal of the whip put them in negative territory "a fair amount" isn't enough.

Not by itself. You'd think they might lose half a dozen in London, ten in Scotland, maybe half a dozen of the 21, plus the DUP. So they need about 30-35 new wins.

To stand still, which isn’t enough.

Sack the lot of them
Absolutely disgraceful

there are many in there representing your views - if you don’t like it, vote them out. We live in a parliamentary democracy - it is a credit to many MPs who are putting their necks on the line to fight for what they believe.

meanwhile, we have the same repeated shite of ‘sack the lot of them’ which is one, not feasible and secondly a complete waste of a post which exposes ignorance of the highest degree - I’m sure someone will post soon enough they think the ‘whole lot of em are c*nts’ which is really helpful to this debate.

when this **** doesn't know his job then clearly enough time, however much that is, is required to scrutinise things because if they don't know what they are doing the chance for an accidental cock up is surely larger?

Oh piece of piss then..................Mayday will run the campaign and its in the bag.........

But someone assured us earlier that it would be a landslide? He seemed so certain too...

 

[aguero93:20]

Many of them won't stand though, so the Conservatives will quite likely get a fair amount back.

They need all of them back, without losing any seats in London, plus 10 MPs from somewhere to replace the DUP, plus however many marginal seats the Lib Dems and BXP cost them in England and Wales, plus the 10 out of 13 seats they'll probably lose in Scotland. That's if this Sinn Fein/SDLP pact in Northern Ireland doesn't come to anything because if it does, there's another 7 seats to deal with on the opposition benches.

Then they need enough of a buffer to deal with any dissenters.

Yep, not really worth bothering.

 

[bluethrunthru]

Shit scared of losing her job.................can't they see that which ever way they vote the BP will make such inroads they are toast anyway? Same for Stringer, Nandy and the like - any that aren't standing down are done for anyway

It will represent a landslide in one sense, as there will be a huge level of churn of seats, at unprecedented levels imo, but the net position will be roughly the same imo. Johnson might get a very small majority, but most likely it will be a hung parliament again.

I see both Labour and the Tories losing seats from their current numbers tbh. SNP, Lib Dems and BXP all gaining.

I thought much the same, net change won't be much. A purge of notable names and some odd results here and there.
I shall watch from my 80% Labour constituency.

 

[west didsblue]

Correct. Hillingdon, Uxbridge, Ruislip, ickenham - all places where folk would quite literally vote for a monkey in a blue suit.

That was Rayleigh and Wickford.

Can’t see the BXP getting more than a small handful but they’ll be useful for helping Labour in northern constituencies and Lib Dems in Southern ones by attracting the gammon vote away from the Tories.

Bercow speaks to the EU and he is a traitor.........................the fucking state of a frustrated Leave mob

Yeah they'll end up with 3 or 4 seats, but they could get that with the same vote share as the SNP who could have as many as 55.

I always find it incredible how the Tories have so thoroughly fucked themselves in Leeds, Birmingham, Liverpool and London when they at one stage had a decent presence in each. Although the Liverpool presence was more down to sectarianism than anything else tbf.

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

We have to stop agreeing with each other.

labour and remain have spectacularly got the mood wrong in Labour leave areas.

If the Brexit party can't win a by election in Peterborough I struggle to see them winning in the labour heartlands. Never underestimate the labour ground campaign (and the dodgy postal voting).

Judging by the polls though the Tories should get a majority especially with the Lib dems taking votes off Labour. They also got more seats last election despite May being leader and their only notable manifesto pledge being fox hunting.

Would love to see mps in places like Oldham their get comeuppance though.
