General Election - December 12th, 2019

What's Tory policy going to do for intelligent children with thick unengaged parents? I assume you have no interest in such kids but what's Tory policy? Give your answer with reference to the concept of meritocracy.

Yes sir, I'll be onto it as soon as I've had my tea sir.

Because you're absolutely obsessed with tax policies to do with the rich?

That's right. Tax the top 5% a bit more - despicable. Take 30quid a week off the disabled - we have to tighten our belts.

surely you mean dinner, sir.

And you think the same about the Tory’s manifesto then? How do you know that regarding the LibDems? They’ve never had a majority to enact a manifesto and have never been in power without being anything more than the junior partner. If you thing manifestos are nonsense then you must think people considering the Brexit Party at this point, without anything, are lunatics.

Absolutely, you don't need to read it to know the raw capitalist agenda BoJo is fronting up and the same goes for union controlled Labour promises of utopian bliss. It's just all very bleak, sorry naught for your comfort or mine. As for the LibDems, they were supposed to be about free trade and open markets but instead want to tie us to a protectionist cartel seeking federal control of the whole continent. The irony is that's the best current outcome we can hope for I think. Even so it's vanishingly remote and the likely election result will have JRM and his fellow ERG speculators dancing in the streets - welcome to Singapore on Thames and Irwell.

If it’s a view it cannot be an inconvenient truth.

My word - you do get slippery in your need to distract

Was:

"...yep my bad - that was just me being a bit silly and twisting the words of others to try and make a cheap point...."

too hard to admit to?

Living as I do, under an iniquitous, hopelessly outdated and presently ineffectual electoral system - and living as I do, in a seat where Labour garner about 85% of the vote, thus rendering any vote contrary to that to be a complete waste of fucking time - and given the state of the three main parties, and the ****, wanker and crypto-fascist (respectively) that lead them, I’ve resolved to vote for the Green Party, who will probably get more votes than the Libdems in my seat, in any event - and the vote I have cast in this poll reflects that.

Not sure who the other. Bluemooner who voted the same way was. Possibly @hilts ?

Not clicked on it yet but I’m 90% green, 10% no vote.

Is this your view or an inconvenient truth?

Get over yourself. No one gives a shit who you vote for but he Tories as a party will be judged (by some) on how they have treated the poor, disabled and most vulnerable. Here's a clue - it's not going well.

And so should you and perhaps learn to read posts better before spouting....

I am not one of those that have selected the Tories as the party that I will be voting for.

But thank you for so completely proving my point.

So even though I am not planning to vote Conservative - I still get abuse from those that are intolerant of anyone that is 'not had-left enough'

As I said - well done for proving me to be correct

Nah - he's good northern stock;-)

When i look at the poll at the top of the page it becomes clear to me why you no longer hear about the Monster Raving Loony Party,

There are already so many jokers to choose from.
