[Politics] Our next prime minister BBC 1

[Weststander]

I wouldn't class myself as an animal lover - never been a great one for pets or anything like that.

But I abhor cruelty to animals and Fox-hunting is barbaric. How anybody can even consider that it should be legal is beyond me.

And it really annoys me when people who support it come up with one of two defences:
1. "It's the politics of envy". Oh no it isn't. If I wanted to charge around the countryside on a horse wearing silly clothes in pursuit of a fox I could probably order my finances quite easily to let me do so. But the idea repulses me.

2. "They don't understand the countryside". If that is a call for us to descend to the level of an animal which might kill just for the sake of it, I'm flabbergasted. Barbaric is an inadequate word.

I’ve heard the you don’t understand countryside baloney too.

A load of arrogant posh people, with their rural working class henchmen, gaining much joy from seeing hounds tear apart a fox. Whilst they’re are it, assaulting hunt monitors, because the police aren’t around. Huntsmen are all scum of the the earth.

By the same reasoning, badger baiting should be legalised, to deal with TB passed on from badgers to cattle.

I think I've come to the conclusion that I'd rather have the cock-juggling thundercunt and narcissistic idiot boris johnson as PM than Jeremy Hunt.

Which I hope comes across as the damning indictment of Hunt that it is meant to be.

Me too, it will just be so much more fun.
I have given up, he will make a total mockery and balls up as Prime Minister but it's going to be such a laugh watching it.
The man is a complete bell end but Hunt is a nasty assassin, and both won't deliver any of what they have promised.

I hate any animal hunting with a vengeance. It just shows how weak minded some people are when they think killing a defenceless animal is sport. They should hang their heads in shame

What about a politician thinking that bringing back the slaughter of defenceless animals will get him into No 10 and the people it was aimed at to vote for him.
So, these people who probably have enough money, let's give them some more and while we are at it lets allow them to rip a foxes head off for fun.
.........Tally Ho!

Won't get my vote. Just because probably his sponsors like it I don't

Johnson will be miles ahead in the ballot, the only question is how long till it goes tits up or does he even get to be PM if he doesn't command a majority ?

Neither of them are after your vote - yet. They're only trying to get the votes of the 160k party members, most of whom are extreme right-wingers. We may well get them talking about capital punishment or national service in the next few days but this won't happen either. This entire ' hustings' period is only to impress their electorate. It has nothing to do with reality.

And the NSc 2019 prize for the most extreme generalisation without any evidence whatsoever to back it up goes to you . . early to dish out the prize, but no one could ever beat this.

 

[Surf's Up]

It's difficult to understand why there seems to be so much love towards Boris Eton, Bullingdon, Picaninny Watermelon, Serial Adulterer, Letterbox, Cake, Bumboys, Haircut, No Detail, Rampant Breeder, "Inconclusive" Cocaine eventer, Wall-Spaffer, **** Business, Get off my ****ing Laptop, Serial Liar, Bumbling Posh **** Joker Johnson. Obviously the Brexit-crazed old white men and their suburban Stepford Wives in the Tory Tribe love him but NSCers........oh, hang on................

I’m not a Corbynista, but the one thing I’d love that sort of government to do is to completely crush activities like fox hunting, (the false) hounds following a scent, etc .... and make the biased/indifferent rural police enforce those laws.

To piss off those arrogant types would be a huge bonus.

Maybe you are both mistaken ? Maybe Portslade seagull is amongst the 160k members ?

 

[Ernest]

Who would have thought the Tories would even mess their own vote up

Never voted Conservative in my life, but with the present incumbent in charge of labour that might change

On that we agree.

There are alternatives to voting Tory if you are fed up, like many, with Corbyn's labour.

My god, what a pair of chumps C’Hunt & Bojo the Clown are!

The country will never get lower than having the clown as PM. We are facing the most embarrassing, crippling and disastrous PM ever.

At least if what you say is true, Corbyn will never be PM.
