Current Affairs 2017 General Election

[Kurt.]

Did the best I could. This bed sheet over my head doesn't help with typing.

I was actually being serious. This is a national election... not an England only one.

Fair dos, I've added them in.

I'm not voting for either of them like haha

And what is that as a percentage of its total funding and income......

Less than we will be getting next year, and the years after. It's 30% of our budget.

Are you really supporting funding cuts to education? Quite shocked.

Not surprisingly, BBC R4 doesn't let the truth get in the way of its editing and agenda.

@Bruce Wayne This is in no way a criticism of you... BUT as it's a general election i.e. the whole of the UK is going to vote, shouldn't the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and Sinn Fein be included in the poll?

Plaid Cymru is an option on the poll and they get far fewer votes than Northern Ireland's two main parties. In fact, Plaid Cymru received fewer votes in Wales than Ukip did at the last general election, so you may want to include Nuttall's party as well.

Was anyone watching BBC News just then? Just before they cut away to the Scottish Leaders debate the caption at the bottom of the screen read something like "Conservatives emerge as pro-union force in Scotland".

Loved this. There is nothing better than a Sky News hack with egg of their face.

That last sentence is as good a reason as I can think of to have this sub-forum on here.

It's a wonderfully simple statement, but full of pathos that is missing from the current political agenda

@Bruce Wayne I notice Martin bell is missing from your poll, getting tired of your bias

Just be glad I couldn't figure out how to rig the votes

Conservative Central HQ panicking - oh so predictably - and trying to smear Corbyn via Twitter with "wouldn't condemn IRA" bull, even though he actually did.

Expect much more of this desperate stuff over the next 18 days...

Bruce didnt you push hard for a ban on all political discussion?

 

[orchard]

-and R4. I think this was supposed to be the vanguard of an offensive that got lost behind its own lines and they're desperate to make it work.
