General Election June 8th

Love that the media and people are already setting up the only subject in this GE is our exit of a trading partnership.

Leaving the EU is a big deal, but we were here before we were in it and we will survive leaving it, spending the next 7 weeks making this the only way you choose your vote will let the tories get their landslide, and do nothig to improve our negoting power bar the old bag not being scared of her own backbenchers revolting against her.

There are so many key domestic issues that need to be dealt with in the coming years - but there is no escaping the fact that the 'main event' is Brexit - and how that goes will set the scene for the best way all the other key issues can be managed.

So, perversely for some, it is best to support May to ensure that she is positioned to get the best from the negotiations and then the rest can be afforded - without a good Brexit outcome any promises made about all the other key issues have no credibility.

The only cowards are the 100 MPs who abstained today and the 13 who voted NO to an election including the biggest wank stain to sit in the chamber Dennis Skinner
Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck

Why.is skinner a wank stain, because he called he out on what this is about 30 tories possibly being kicked out of parliament for fraud and getting prosecuted, she's a coward, she has hid from any major issue she fucked up in her time as home secretary and shifted blame, same as now, running scared of the the party being in the shit from criminal courts and her backbenchers rejecting her exit recomendations.

Hopefully, the debate will get on to some real issues like the underfunding of Social Care.

A reduction in foreign aid could help to support social care that also supports the NHS.

But we have to continue with the foreign aid policy to allow these countries to support our armaments trade (& then use these arms against out troops in years to come).
It's what "superpowers" do.

Wee Jimmy Krankie.

Does anyone have thoughts either way on TV debates?

Mixed. Good for democracy on the face of it, but televised debating skills are a poor proxy for competence in government.

Wasn't it the TV debates that propelled Nick Clegg to political super-stardom?

I agree, Tony Blair would walk it. Yankified shite.

This thread makes the match day forum seem nice and friendly, with not a bad word said about any of our players.

Despite your silver-tongued efforts to keep it amicable...

Oops sorry

That's okay.





Just don't let it happen again, capiche?
