General Election - December 12th, 2019

[Ban-jani]

It's bizarre that she's so passionate about stopping Brexit yet her position will almost certainly guarantee it happens.

Maybe it’s possible to have two passions in politics?

It's the only way that tactic would work, but it's shithousery of previously unimaginable proportions if that's the way they go.

The other side will do the same. No need to split a vote.

Of course it is. But the ONLY thing she talks about is stopping Brexit. If she really wants to stop it, she needs to think more tactically and set herself up for the longer term.

How is it the same as the LibDems in anyway shape or form? Terrible point that George. The LibDems have had manifestos every year and have policies in place if they were elected. They also have them listed on their website. Can you name a single Brexit Party policy other than No Deal?

No, and neither can the LibDems except Revoke. They are policy free tiny bunch of misfits, everyready to hang their insignificant number of hats on whatever looks likely to get them a few more self serving seats. If the public are foolish enough to believe them again on anything else they'll get their just reward - remember tuition fees? Now they have decided the referendum didn't happen at all despite voting for it. If you ever have the misfortune to live in a council area controlled by them you will fully understand the policy vacuum that lies behind that meaningless label. I'll be wasting my vote on them of course - revoke is the only decent solution to this mess now.

Were any of the MP's standing down 'because of the abuse they have recieved' in seats where they a) expected to win, or b) represented the views of those that elected them last time? Just curious.

You think people who will vote Brexit party are fascists? Thank you for suitably demonstrating my point.

Well I had no idea what your "not your strong point" comment even meant, but no I don't think everyone who will vote for Farage's company is a fascist, but they will be voting for a leader who's happy in the company of fascists and racists.

This chart tells a story, doesn't it. The general impression you get is that there is some mass exodus of MPs - disgruntled with the how politics is going, intimidation, whatever. Seems in fact it's fewer than most previous years!

Happy to amplify. Based on your posting output on this thread you come across as someone who is largely incapable of viewing things from the perspective of others who do not share your viewpoint. That would suggest, based on my perception, that it isn’t your “strong point”.

I wouldn't stick around long enough to have to endure it if the Labour Party get an overall majority,

You would not be alone in that - Labour of past years would be fine - but 'this' Labour......

I have made some plans - even if only at the 'given thought to' level so far about living permanently in Cyprus if that were to happen
