Politics 2024/25 General Election Voting Intention (2022)

A step towards rewarding Hamas for their rape and murder expedition on October the 7th.

That idea can get fucked.

I don't disagree. Sadly Palestine would be better off without Israel and Hamas.

A step towards rewarding Hamas for their rape and murder expedition on October the 7th.

That idea can get fucked.

They both should have their "countries"-existing or potential - wiped out from underneath them and a secular government put in it's place in a country with a new name.

Just when you think the prospects of the future couldn't get any worse... whats worse than the Tories in power? The Tories and Reform coalition which Farage has now hinted at.

 

[Raven]

No chance, Reform will get nothing and the Tories will get sub 50 seats.

 

[caLLous]

The Tories wouldn't even be the main opposition if the voting aligns with that Sky poll this morning (it won't).

General election: Labour and Tories confirm income tax squeeze

Both parties say a freeze on tax thresholds will remain for three years if they win the election.

www.bbc.co.uk

No difference in tax policy.

Should people who didn't get furloughed, and then spend their time posting skipping-rope videos on instagram, get a tax cut?

Vile man. No dictator’s boot he won’t lick and people’s deaths he won’t care about in their name. Hope Rochdale sees sense:

He's just the same as Putin's muppet gob pieces on Russian TV, he'll kiss the arse of the most powerful cunt in the room for a few scraps.

[Raven]

They should have released it a week before the election, for, as my niece would put it, maxxy lols

*I realise it was already out there, buried somewhere.

 

[Embattle]

Just a heads up for those who love Farage will have to change their vote to other for the Reform party

Naturally he has picked a hard seat to go for as well, Clacton.

 

[Ormorof]

He doesn't actually want to win though then he might have to actually do something, as an unelected twat he can spend his time sucking Trumps toes and licking arse of his paymasters to the east

 

[Tom]

It's all about shifting the window further right. He and his racist Mosley mates are all backed by big money who just want to keep pushing everything to the right, so they can keep more of their money and keep the poors in their place.

That's why stations like GB News exist. Not to make money, but to push the conversation right. The station won't make money, but its backers and friends will in the long run.

 

[Embattle]

The thing that has been largely true so far is that the right never really gains the kind of support in the UK that has happened in certain other European countries, the majority of the voting population tends to align either side of the centre.

[Ormorof]

We have right wing loons in government with centrist party in Finland, they want Finland to exit the euro (and so the EU), this is a party that has repeatedly been found to be receiving funds tied to our eastern neighbours. But people seem to lap it up, their other election campaign is "keep Finland blue eyed" as if any of that matters

But old racists vote more than young people so we are stuck with them for now

I sincerely hope any Labour government will not embrace the right just to get in power but seeing recent moves I'm sceptical

 

[Scouse]

Calling bullshit on that. The Tories are way more right than most other european parties.

And @Ormorof is right to be worried about Labour. They're about as leftwing as John Major's Tories.

I knew you would, to expect anything else would have been a surprise.

 

[Scouse]

So, no commentary on whether that's correct or not?

The Tories have moved much more right, especially in response to the Farage nationalist arseholes. It's dragged Labour right as well. The UK "centre" is right-wing.

 

[Tom]

What's really fucking annoying is the number of times Farage and his twat friends appear on the news. Especially those Tufton St wankers like Oakeshott, who refuse to say who funds them. They shouldn't be on the TV so much. And why oh why do breakfast programmes still feature what's on the front page of the newspapers? The rags are increasingly irrelevant, stop providing free advertising for them.

The green party did really well in the local elections, way, way better than Reform or any other kippers. But do they get any coverage for this?

 

[Bodhi]

The only way the current Tories look remotely right wing is if you are so far left on the political spectrum you can give Stalin and Mao a reach around.

Oh hi @Scouse !

 

[Scouse]

I think the only way the Tories don't look right wing is if you'd welcome Oswald's Brownshirts with open arms.

Oh hi @Bodhi

 

[Raven]

The everyday Tories, while weak as piss and about as useful, are not particularly right wing, they're just stupid enough to aimlessly toe the party line, so they can trouser 80k and have nice dinners out. Even Cabinet isn't that right wing, they're just in it for the cash, mostly.
However, some strong cogs of the party machine certainly are, as are the likes of Braverman, Truss et al. Proper dangerous people, oddly, the ones who might actually cling on (although Truss is looking wobbly) 20 or so MPs, will most certainly double down, post GE, in a desperate attempt to appease the Reform lot, who will dissolve into nothing, like all the protest parties before them.

 

[Raven]

Tories getting absolutely bodied today. Even the Spectator are turning on them! Johnson has definitely briefed against Sunak.

Things you love to see.

 

[Tom]

I think Starmer did the lawyer thing of letting Sunak lie and lie again. He did similar to Boris Johnson in parliament.

And now the story isn't about this 2 grand tax increase, it's about Sunak lying. The man is a useless politician.

And now the story isn't about this 2 grand tax increase, it's about Sunak lying. The man is a useless politician.

Yeah. And when everyone realises that although Sunak was lying about the source of the 2 grand increase, it'll be too late, and we'll have a 2 grand increase.

Paid for by the middle classes, ofc. Labour won't touch the actually rich.

It was 2 grand over 4 years too which is probably the most misleading part.
