Current Affairs 2017 General Election

Interesting.

I've always voted Labour, but I honestly don't have any faith in Corbyn. I'm certainly not voting Tory and the other parties are a wasted vote.

Might be a "spoil the ballot paper" year for me

My form might be rusty

If one of the major parties had any sense they'd make the entire election about the opportunity to reverse Brexit, and romp home.....

Lib Dems will do that but won't have enough support.

As I previously mentioned, this is exactly what the Conservative party will be banking on. Many may not switch towards the Conservative party.

Some will of course, but by abstaining or diluting labours vote to other parties then they'll most probably gain a strangle hold over Westminster.

The Labour party HQ and the hierarchy, who are mainly non-Corbyn, will go into meltdown especially as they'll expect a good old hiding.

And add to that the Conservatives have already done a lot of the groundwork behind the scenes with analysts already being appointed.

The Lib Dems will certainly do that, but they could offer free blow jobs and they still wouldn't win

I've come to distrust all politicians of all parties. I'll vote Labour, but I dislike them all.

Yeah as it's not like she told Gordon Brown that he had no mandate when he took the office like....

I'm not interested what she said. She was wrong. Whilst many/most people vote with the leader of the party in mind, we are not the USA. We do not vote for the PM.

 

[The Cowboy]

She is unelected and could have clung on another 3 years unopposed

She was elected an MP, and elected leader, and therefore PM, by Tory MPs.

The Liberals will. And will flop because support for Brexit is soaring.

Anybody else think May scrubs up decent?
Probably a right goer

Well who would want one off Farron or Clegg?

If you are a Labour supporter, the best vote you can make with this one is for the Tories.

I know that sounds off, but honestly, the heavier Labour lose this with the hopeless one in charge, the better the chance Labour can u-turn into a viable opposition for the next one.

 

[Groucho]

If Labour and Lib Dems have anything about them they'd form an anti Brexit co-alition.

I vote Paul Robinson from Neighbours anyway.

No mate.

I'm going to play the ref here and call for a well earned ban.

Lib Dems can't do it as they're still toxic to many voters after Clegg. Modest gains off Labour at most.

Labour can't do it because... well... Corbyn.

So nobody can. May can't lose it. It's weird to have an election or vote that you know immediately the result of, beyond any doubt.

Labour's polling has been between 25 and 33% since he is in charge because of the internal opposition, because of the media's ceaseless attacks on him, because they had no clear policies and because in essence it doesn't matter.

This election announcement takes all of those away - the opposition has to stfu now, the media is legally obliged to provide some balance, Labour policies will be clear for all to see and people will have to choose between voting for her and five years of a Tory government that is willing to do this during the most important negotiations this country has faced in living memory, or voting for someone else.
