How could anyone think that that social care policy, or the drop free school meals policy, would go down well with people.

I know at least four people in the last few days who have switched due to the school meals policy. God help us all if Corbyn gets in.
Labour are still going to be missing 40-odd seats in Scotland that, before 2015, would have been guaranteed. It's very hard to see where Corbyn could possibly pick up enough seats in England to get a majority, even if the Tories come out of this with a single digit exit poll lead.

Re: June 8th General Election

Well as long as your judging her on the important things gary, she's in a tough position in one way as brexit is going to mean very little time or resources for the normal parliamentary stuff so she's not promising to change the country in a single term unlike some of her opponents. Nothing has happened to make me change my vote it will still be conservative.

I don't like it, she has a habit of passing the buck to underlings when things go wrong to. I also don't like how secretive she is, makes me mistrust her

Weak or wobbly or the fool of the opposition take your pick as its not a very appealing pick but its what is sadly in front of us ladies and gentlemen.

Re: June 8th General Election

Seems rather typical of some of Labour's campaigners. He invited them in to talk but they just wanted to abuse him.

Re: June 8th General Election

Well, campaigning is suspended due to the Manchester mass-murder. However, once it starts again, security is going to be on everyone's minds. It may remain unspoken, but it will be there. I suspect I know which party will be seen to be more trustworthy as a result.

The attacker may have been seeking to celebrate the anniversary of Lee Rigby's murder, rather than to influence the general election, but influence it he has, I'm certain.

Re: June 8th General Election

It will certainly highlight the fact that the Corbynistas are historically terrorist sympathisers. I wonder how they'll handle that?

Gift to the Torys though.

Re: June 8th General Election

Social media is filling up with the conspiracy theorists already "the bombing in Manchester was carried out to help the Tories".

Some people need strait jackets and padded rooms....
