Holy fucking crap.

LibDems zero to hero.

Brexit Party increases lead in national poll as Tories struggle

No..hes just a fucking spin doctored cunt with his sweaters and holding cups of tea.

He was a good orator though..I'll give him that..in fact he was pretty much the same as Farage is now.

That classic start to every reply..'Look'.

It is interesting how he's saying this on the same day that Corbyn is trying to prevent us from getting involved into another potentially illegal war.

I mean surely you all agree with Corbyn on this one, you're all very vocal about Iraq

As for your actual post though; I don't think Corbyn gives a shit anyway, most of the people that benefited under New Labour are hardened Tory voters and very anti Corbyn voters.

 

[Job]

Its all about him isn it.

Lets not forget that Thatcher said that new labours later policies were her greatest achievement.

Not an urban myth.

Margaret Thatcher's greatest achievement: New Labour

 

[Scouse]

Thatcher said her greatest regret is that rich people horde their wealth. That the trickke-down effect doesn't happen.

Considering her entire economic ethos and global economic policy is predicated on it's existence and strength that's an explicit admission that she fucked everything.

She may as just as well have said "I'm a cunt".

 

[Gwadien]

Thatcher made the wealth based on risk and unregulated banks.

Labour took advantage of that to create a fairer society, and it was the golden years.

Then the recession happened and everyone blamed Labour, even though it would have been the same under a Tory Government, but there wouldn't have been the golden years for everyone.

 

[Job]

Yes..well I remember the 70s under labour..and holyfucknuts it was bad.

 

[Hawkwind]

Yep remember the power outages and queuing for bread and basic foods. Not because of shortages but because union drivers were leaving it to rot in their lorries. Army fire engines and ambulances on the roads.

Kenneth Clarke: ‘If there’s no other way you’ve got to bring the government down’

[Embattle]

Probably better to ask who watched it first

 

[caLLous]

I was trying to show the results instead of asking the question but that's not how it works.

 

[Wij]

Saw some of it. Raab was the biggest prick on the night from what I saw.

 

[Job]

Boris, by not turning up on the snowflake channel.

Opinion: Rory Stewart puts the other TV debate Tory challengers in the bin

 

[caLLous]

Raab being out can only be a good thing but it's worrying that I just heard Johnson being described as "the darling of the Tory party".

 

[Yoni]

Is it me or is Stewart the only one that makes sense (happy to see he is through to the next round)

 

[DaGaffer]

Stewart is there to give the illusion of a contest; Boris Johnson is the next British prime minister and this existence is a simulation because real life can't be this fucking absurd.

 

[Yoni]

Unless this is a silly joke of course Boris is the next PM.... crazy as it is. However I would prefer Stewart...

No one thought Trump would get through his first 100 days... I wonder how Boris will perform...

What does parliament need to do to call an election- I’m not up on this..

 

[Gwadien]

This whole process is like a reality TV show, it's fucking ridiculous.

Whilst the fate of the UK hangs in limbo.

Have a majority.

Considering they all hated May with a passion but refused to get rid of her, I highly doubt this would happen in a billion years, although it is completely in the best interests of the country.

The second un elected PM in a row

 

[Job]

A lot of people like him across the political spectrum.
Which is weird, I like him because hes a personality, but I would be amazed if he wasnt utterly useless at actually running the country.

 

[caLLous]

He's not "a personality" - he's a disgusting, duplicitous piece of shit. No wonder you like him.

 

[Embattle]

I didn't watch it as it was always going to be pointless, although even though I didn't watch it I suspect I could get away with calling them twats any way.

Not after she was elected in at the last GE... (with a minority albeit)

If only he was brown.. eh.

Opinion: Rory Stewart is out. The Tories have killed off the truth teller so that the lies might live
