She was goosed yesterday either she flip flopped(people seem to hate that) when balaclava man said he was going to show up or she stuck to her guns(people seem to hate that). The event itself was pretty shit and served very little purpose in terms of policy. All those parties are basically Labour with a vested interest thrown in except UKIP who are right wing Tories. 6 on to 1 doesn't give people a balanced debate.

A long debate May Vs Balackava man with them both doing their homework and a decent interviewer would have been far more worthwhile. We will see next week if her plan has worked. I personally don't take staunch corbyn supporters views into account but other normal folk seem to agree with me that she has had a poor election.

I don't take staunch tory supporters views in to account either, but unlike you I quite like people who are little out of the ordinary.

Hasn't he denouced IRA violence though, along with other groups in the NI trouble? I don't think many will vote against him for his alleged republican links.

No, not really, it suggest it was £2.60 and now it's £1.70 (which is competitive compared to the pikey boozer next door where it's £1.25), but it's gonna go back to £2.60 which is more than double 'The Travellers Arms' which is now looking rather attractive despite the sticky carpets.

This is a fun analogy.

Does it have a pool table ?
 
As an ex Soldier who served in bandit country, talks always needed to take place with the republicans, unless that is you wanted to exterminate them like the Nazis.
 
Good to see she's upped her game this morning.

She will give them a new rail link, only problem is that the train tickets, will be £200 to London

I think its being generous to describe Corbyn as marmite and maybe not unfair to suggest he is roundly disliked/untrusted, I'm traditionally Labour but I can't stand the man, I've not yet decided if I'll vote as I generally always have, in fact if I'll vote at all. That all said, there are definite cracks appearing in the Tory machine, what should really have been a landlside seems to be imploding around them. I still expect they will win and retain a proper majority but anything less than an increase in their seats must be viewed as a failure on May's part, and despite her making it clear early doors she didn't plan to appear on any TV debates the fact she has not looks like a massive own goal now.

For my part, hopefully we will be seeing two new leaders of the main parties come July and while I don't give a f--- who runs the nasty lot, I pray we see someone more in tune with the WIDER electorate running Labour.

A no vote is a vote for May. It's one or the other and the Tories will take some stopping. The media have been out to do a hatchet job on Corbyn for a couple of years but he's still there. May gets a simple question and turns into David Brent. Think about what interested investors are pushing the hatchet job and who stands to gain. I don't see Corbyn as the messiah (and at times he's been a very naughty boy) but he's a far better option for the vast vast majority of workers in the UK
