Current Affairs The General Election

[hallamblue]

Dianne Abbot doesn't help Labour's cause, not many of their front bench do. John McDonnell is the one who has come out of their leadership with the most credit.

Yes it's Dianne Abbot not wearing the correct shoes that will lose the election...

yep, meanwhile one time threat to home security Priti Patel is the Home Secretary.

Polls are looking depressing. If the Tories get a majority my faith in humanity will be lost.

 

[DanEFC92]

Love how this has been ignored.

She's a massive reason Labour will lose this election.

Cause its proper irrelevant?

 

[Jebus_lives]

It's the fact she would be Home Secretary. It's a massive blot on Corbyn's competency to hold office that she's anywhere near his top team, nevermind a core member of it.

Yes and Priti Patel who falls somewhere to the right of Facist in terms of her political views is the alternative.

'Priti Patel wants to bring back hanging, abolish the human Rights act, threatened food shortages in Ireland, doesn't approve of same sex marriage, lobbies on behalf of alcohol and tobacco in the commons and was sacked for holding secret meetings with a dodgy Facist Government..but she's got lovely shoes'

Correct. But that’s no reason to not vote for them, they are made up of a complete rag tag bunch but that only strengthens the Tory position of non voters.

I’m voting Labour for many reasons.

I’ve been living in London for 5 years now and in all honesty the quality of life here is worse than Wirral/Liverpool, in some cases significantly. The amount of poverty I see on a daily basis is staggering, particularly seeing as this is supposed to be one of the richest countries/cities in the world. Within those 5 years it’s got progressively worse.

I’m not 100% convinced that Corbyn is the right person to lead the country but I am convinced he is a man who has the nation’s best interest at heart and genuinely cares about people who are disadvantaged. Boris Johnson and the Conservatives however, do not.

Spot on.

 

[Nymzee]

I’m literally at a point now where I’m matching with chatbots on Tinder telling me who to vote for. Crafty bastards.

Why, what's she done recently? They've pretty much hidden her away, like the Tories have done with Rees-Mogg

 

[davek]

Polls all over the show over recent years, couldn't pick their nose some of them.

Their weaponised mate. YouGov especially is: owned by two Tory donors and its methodology is suspect. They;re always outliers predicting (trying to stimulate) a Tory lead.

 

[larrygobfiend]

The way things have gone, I wouldn't be surprised if the vote count is rigged.

Ah, "whataboutery" - of course.

A daily mail article on Diane abbot?

Don’t mind if I don’t.

Corbyn is a brexiteer through and through, anyone who knows his history knows that, he has never been a fan of being governed by the EU.

He's been pushed into offering a 2nd Ref by Starma and the rest of the front bench remainers, had Corbyn not alienated 5m Labour leave voters he'd have a hell of a chance of being PM.

They're playing the long game, believing that of they get rid of Corbyn over this Brexit election they can secure a "centre" right comeback in the LP.

No chance.
