Current Affairs The General Election

[Billysgingham.]

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.

That's the truth brother.

All the worst horror stories are like this.

I'm feeling depressed over the result but at the back of my mind it was coming

Corbyn is a brilliant human being but he was too much of an easy target for the media and the tories, he should have let someone with less baggage, possibly younger and more appealing take the reigns.

Dianna Abbot was a figure of ridicule too, another that should have been replaced,

I didn't think Brexit would have been such a major factor, but I'm assuming most people want to it done and labour would have taken months.

I find it all very hard to take, more people care about Brexit than the NHS, schools and the homeless epidemic.

Mental isn't it.

But what she said makes sense.

Unfortunately.

It did sadly. I've heard similar from people round me about Corbyn. The man has his problems and despite those I like him but he's been attacked and smeared by the MSM for years. You can stay positive and bat away from it as much as you want but it sticks and he's been demonised.

Labour had little chance in this election with Brexit looming. People want the only thing they have ever won in their lives carried out no matter how much it's going to harm them in the future. It's the election of emotion rather than critical thinking.

BRX have denied the Tories 2 seats so far.
The opposition parties have Nigel Farage to thank for denying the Conservatives a landslide.

What did I do mate?

Come on mate @Moomin said he was going to rattle yer mar, don't let him get away with that he is making you a laughing stock.

I still can’t get my head around working class people voting for the Tories, Brexit or no Brexit.

Do they think once Brexit is out of the way Johnson is going to be lashing money at their public services? Bellends.

That's my hope - that the deluded Corbyn activists realise that they did the Tories more favours than the most ardent Tory campaigner could ever have done.

My fear is there is simply too many ideologists that have infiltrated the Labour rank and file to enable an electoral recovery. The electoral system also doesn't allow for a splinter party to do well, as seen by Change UK (albeit that was botched totally by some very egotistical and talentless MPs.)

I think a more realistic situation is that perhaps Momentum allow Keir Starmer to get in as leader as he's played a cute political game by being on the surface on side with Corbyn's nonsense but has retained an aura of being someone who is intelligent and has common sense. That's possible, but we could easily see the useless Thornberry or Long-Bailey in instead.

U r a tory.
