[Politics] The General Election Thread

[Two Professors]

As Richard Osman correctly points out. The Tory party won’t sell the NHS off in one go. It’ll be bit by bit. They’ve always been open about it. If we let the Tory’s win again, one day you’ll walk into A&E and there’ll be a priority waiting room.

Another Pointless comment.Happy birthday Richard,but try supporting a better club now you're older,and wiser.

Probably the magic money variety .... they've finally found a more credible answer to how they will fund everything

Not posting the IFS link today regarding them being equally scathing of the Tory spending plans as they are Labour? I thought the IFS was your new favourite website?

DUP released its manifesto today. Not that anybody outside of Ulster gives a shit about these medieval bog-swellers. Pretty sure that Boris's organ grinder would have called for an election partially to stop these vile historical throwbacks having any hold over the Tory minority government.

I assume the DUP manifesto is just a list of things which they believe to be the work of Satan?

I for one am very much looking forward to Johnson challenging Labour's announcement of the tree planting plans on the election climate change debate later on C4............oh.

I can save you the time, 11 New National Parks and 3 Billion trees.

....they are going to reconnect with Northern Leave voters with a second referendum Remain/ vs the leave that was on offer at the time of the referendum

There, corrected it for you.

Boris Johnson will simply duck the public until the election. He knows his supporters are gullible enough to vote Tory whatever he does, so why do anything! just has to sit on his hands and watch the Tory’s hold onto power. Which they will do with ease.

Yep. It's basically the same tactic Cameron used in 2015 and it worked (and May tried in 2017 when it didn't).

The less interviews he does before the postal vote deadline the better for him.

5 minutes watching House of Games will give you an indication of how much gravitas should be applied to that tweet.

Yeah, no offence but from what I’ve seen of his social media output and what I’ve seen of your output, I’ll pay more attention to him. Not that you don’t have your plus points, intelligence and insight just aren’t on that list

Great. Can we have more about wives, mums and carpets?

I would say he has more gravitas than any party leader bar Lucas

..Alternatively it also works out as everyone in the country planting just 2 trees per person, per year, for the next 2 decades...

So a typical family of 4 has to plant 160 trees in their garden over the next 20 years. Really??

 

[Chicken Run]

Don't YOU?

NO, No I don’t!

I do hope she's going to don her gardening gloves and help Jezza plant all of these trees.

What about Nibble, does he despair of them?
