Current Affairs The General Election

[john jako]

Thought GOT was full of alright lads and girls tbh, last night a lot showed true colours which won’t be forgotten.

I’ve made some brilliant mates here and their character has been true from here to in whatever boozer I’ve met them them.

Sad I won’t be able to say that for some others.

Apart from your dislike of crackers and butter your sound.

You’ll never be forgiven for that. Or your sucking up to Danny for mod status!!!!!!

Operation not understanding democracy or majority is well underway on social media.

Funny thing is , in a few days everyone who knew nothing about politics before will forget it ever happened.

 

[Furey1878]

Can we all just vote in whatever way keeps the Conservatives out in the next election, please?

I'm more anti-Tory than I am pro-Labour

i.e. if you don't agree with my political views then you're a bad nazi.

Do you mind me asking whereabouts are you?

Ceredigion is my constituency.

Think a fair few people myself included realise that the truth is pretty depressing so it's far better to just forget politics and instead go and discuss and hope that maybe just maybe one of these transfer windows we've won actually reflects on the pitch.

Love Island, Facebook and get Brexit done.

I did. There were no tax increases for anyone under 80k. Over if you are aware of them, can you enlighten me?

Can't be doing with all the gloating, smug, 'I told ya so' comments like that.

In 2024 it will 50 years since labour won an election with anyone other than Blair.

Let that sink in.

i said before, that relatively-speaking the UK is overall not a bad place to live:

- strong economy
- strong own culture
- high tolerance of other cultures and peoples
- high education rates
- plenty state benefits for less fortunate
- fair degree of individual freedom

Not bad considering how "evil" and "nasty" many on here consider the dominant political power to be.

Ok thats it? That wasn't a tax increase either, it was an equalising of the unequal tax break. Have you got the example of a tax increase?

I was surprised they did so well. I didn't a single Conservative leaflet through the post even, and I didn't see a single Tory poster during the entire campaign. I suspect a lot of Conservative voters are English people who've moved into the county - I believe something like 30% of Ceredigion's population was born outside Wales.

Btw I'm not 100% sure, but I think the Tories came second here in 1983.

I’m not sure, I’m now based in Deeside and we’re about the only seat in north Wales that didn’t go Tory. Sad state of affairs this
