Current Affairs The General Election

Kate Hoey is quite spectacularly one of the worst people in politics

If you two want to trade insults, kindly take it to pm eh

No, we won't be able to read them then.

Kate Hoey is “feeling quite positive” about the result.

Christ almighty, what chance do we have with people like that in the party for so many years?

One of the strangest things I’ve heard in a longtime that

I've never felt such despair. Anyone got the number for the Samaritans?

Quick, they're about to be sold off.

Exhibit A of why Labour are losing elections. The people supporting them actually believe these are factors here?

Its amazing how people don't make the link with the decline of the union movement with everything thats happening now.

I remember having an argument years ago with a mate who was banging on about unions holding the country and economy to ransom.
Kept going on about those bloody wharfies.
The wharfies probably got more than their fair share.
But consider what power they held back then, what it represented.
That could stop the imports and exports of goods. They could hit capital where it hurt.
They were flag bearers for the rights of workers everywhere.

While the wharfies took their bit extra.
It now looks inconsequential to to the rape of wealth the elites have taken out of the economy while everyones conditions and security slip away.

There's no more power of the people anymore. Its gone. We get entertained every now and then but nothing chnages unless its in the favour of elites.
Who/what are the people who voted for Brexit going to blame the social problems on next. Whose going to be the next scapegoat now that Brexit is going ahead. Or do we just keep blaming it on the Pakis etc etc.

I suspect that anyone capable of recording themselves making a Pokemon rap and posting it on a football forum, is unlikely to be the nost intimidating of individuals (to most adults I hasten to add).

Here's a thought - maybe someone who can do that and not give a toss about what people think of them can look after themselves, hm?

They're engaged.

In my humble opinion, the Labour Party are responsible for this catastrophe. It all started when they elected the wrong brother as leader.via a diabolical voting system. Since then there has been no strong leadership or identity. They have been completely reactive and lost the trust of the many. Corbyn always was just a stooge.

 

[Ferninho]

Quick, they're about to be sold off.

That'd be funny if it wasn't true. The BBC are loving it. They should remember Johnson wants to kill them off.

 

[Jebus_lives]

I think we can

Ah well then that settles it.

 

[Jebus_lives]

That'd be funny if it wasn't true. The BBC are loving it. They should remember Johnson wants to kill them off.

Only if they hold him to account.

Get that wall built.

We could be like Napoli and get Ancelotti in for front it!

 

[Wat Tyler]

....I imagine a lot of Labour MPs who lose their seats will have very strong messages for Corbynists.

Pray, tell... what will the message be?

 

[Kirkles]

Exit polls, are they on the way out ?

 

[wainy]

This is why you lost.
