Politics General Election 2017

[Scouse]

It's going to be interesting.

I think that's going to be the case tbh. Not that its interesting, but that it'll be a tory landslide.

First past the post is the thing that knocks it into tory landslide. We do need a form of proportional representation. People say that stops things getting done but if a clear majority can't agree then it probably shouldn't get done. (and what happens is that labour get in, shit gets done, cunts get in shit gets repealed and other shit gets done, labour get back in, shit gets repealed, shit that got done gets redone etc. etc.)

For the record - cunts would be good for me. Even less tax, thankyouverymuch. But they're a woeful shower. What would actually be better for me in real terms is that everyone does better. But that's a long term solution and everyone wants societal change NOW or just forget it.

So people are going to vote with their taxes and fuck the poor, as they always do.

Think it may be a little closer than that map though.

Diane Abbot is the stupidest, most odious individual to ever hold any kind of political position in this country in my lifetime. To think that she could hold some kind of actual position of power is just chilling.

I agree. Really do. She's second only to Theresa May in my book. Diane is incompetent and stupid. Theresa's incompetent and malicious (and a paid-up god-botherer to boot).

71.4% Labour, 14.3% Tories, 14.3% Green party.

I suppose it's just as well I'm voting Labour...

I'd suggest looking at UK’s most popular voting guide for elections, political issues, candidates, and poll data instead as it focuses upon how you agree with individual policies you agree with which multiple parties might have in their manifesto
The voteforpolicies.org is a blunt instrument in comparison as you might end up choosing UKIP over Conservatives or Green over Labour if there is no significant difference between the groups of policies and then suddenly it thinks you're a 25% UKIP, 25% Green, 25% Labour 25% Lib when in reality you're going to vote conservative.

There's a chance that in 15 odd years, perhaps more, of being on Freddys and Barrysworld, that could be the most ridiculous sentiment I've read. Which is remarkable considering some of the strange shit posted on here in that time.

I'm not disputing that, I never said she was some sort of saint that has done nothing wrong - what I did say is, i've had to put up with shit from a Tory government and arseholes like Jeremy Cunt, IDS and Theresa May, I'm willing to give someone else a chance, she can't do any worse than what we've already had.

Yup, 5 more years of the poor, elderly and disabled getting royally fucked, 5 more years of the NHS being gutted (assuming its even around after 5 more years), 5 more years of schools getting fucked, 5 more years of the country getting fucked basically

Yet people still vote Tory, it's absolutely shameful how little the country actually cares about the above.

Well, whatever happens in the next 5 years, anyone who voted Tory has absolutely no right to cry about it.

 

[Talivar]

They will cry tho and shout and pretend to care, then just vote Tories again if it directly benefits them.

Exactly.

Front twitter right now:

"Ipsos MORI phone poll has CON lead down 10. Now CON 45% LAB 40%"

 

[Scouse]

Hung parliament would be interesting.

 

[Talivar]

Im an idiot but i would prefer old style of having a parliament consist of 1 from each party

Ironically Labour would technically benefit me greatly in the short term but I didn't vote for them.

Lib Dems, Labour & SNP coalition?

 

[BloodOmen]

Lib Dems, Labour & SNP coalition?

Sturgeon has just come forward and said (again) that she would help Jeremy Corbyn over the line so an SNP/Labour Coalition is possible I guess.

 

[Talivar]

I would allow Greens, Tories and UKIP to have a say aswell to make sure everything is balanced

That isn't democracy, that means nothing happens

 

[Talivar]

Depends on the system created and put in place to ensure all voices are heard, i would even like representatives of Job Sectors as well to provide REAL views on how changes effect them

Unrealistic, wouldn't happen, becomes too bureaucratic.

Although, if parties said 'look, we're gonna employ a bloke from the NHS as our health secretary' it'd go a long way with voters, as opposed to someone who wrote a book about dismantling the NHS.

Tory MP charged in electoral fraud investigation

Tory MP charged in electoral fraud investigation

Came at a good time.

 

[Scouse]

Cowardly PM, who removed the environment post from the cabinet, refuses to condemn trump and instead bends over and takes orange cock deep and long.

For me, the Tories environmental record is all you need to know about not voting for them. They're going to absolutely trash this country after brexit.

 

[BloodOmen]

Came at a good time.

It's why Theresa May called a snap election because if this had happend there would have needed to be another election, the sly cunts knew they were going to get charged so they acted first for damage control.

Mind you, this is going to be good ammo for Labour to use

 

[BloodOmen]

Something to pass the time by... have fun

Are you ready to join Jeremy Corbyn to transform Britain?

 

[Scouse]

Kids can make all the games they like but they need to get out and vote.

Aye, literally no excuse not to vote.. if people that can't get to polling stations can still vote there is just no excuse.

Still 83% Labour.

Theresa May bullshitting her way during BBCQT

"I had the balls to call an election!"

No, you had no choice because one would have been called regardless because of Tory MP's being investigated and charged with electoral fraud, all she did was do it sooner to make herself look good/like she gave a fuck about the country.

Corbyn's doing better with much tougher questions.

I don't understand why Dimbleby allowed so much on nuclear weapons. We all know he doesn't want to push the button. It's not actually that big a deal. - Trident is getting renewed, period, and the likelihood of a nuclear attack if Corbyn actually made it in is miniscule.

 

[BloodOmen]

Aye, I noticed there was nothing but a constant barrage of "You support the IRA!" "You support Hamas!" "You won't use nukes if you need to!"

Why don't these silly cunts understand to achieve peace, sometimes you need to sit down with people that may have done absolutely disgusting things but in the long run, its for the greater good... they think dropping bombs forever actually achieves something. They fail to understand all that does is create more insurgents and/or hatred.

"WOULD YOU PUSH THE NUCLEAR BUTTON AND KILL MILLIONS OF PEOPLE? WOULD YOU?!"

"I can't believe you just wanted to talk to the IRA/Hamas!"

Exactly, these are the stupid cunts that swallowed all the media bollocks about Corbyn, shite like the Daily Mail that thickos just absorb like a spunge.
