Is there a rule that manifestos, NHS sell off (?) documentation and other stuff have to be issued in paper? Watching the news tonight there must have been a few trees handed out. Can’t people just look them up on the internet?

not everyone has the internet. unless Labour wins of course.

YouGov MRP Poll released tonight .... they successfully predicted a hung parliament last time and that swing seats Kensington and Chelsea and Canterbury would be won by the Labour party.

Interesting to see if they have called it right this time.

thats more ambitious than Electoral Calculus which has been running very high majority. Labour has broken through 30% for last round of polls, gaining some Momentum (pun intended).

Here's a thought.
Unless you decide not to vote, we will all be voting for someone who is totally unfit to be Prime Minister.
And when that happens, look at the front bench of those parties.
Whatever happens, this is what we are going to get.
What a friggin mess we have got ourselves into.

It's because thick people are allowed to vote.

All done and dusted.


If it is cold, and rainy we might as well all stay in, keep warm and not vote.

Mr Cummings has been warning people not do that. Do as you are told.

Yes, you're right - if Sky looks more even-handed in its Brexit coverage than the BBC does then things really have come to a pretty pass.

(In fairness to Murdoch, he does publish one of the more balanced of UK newspapers.)

Murdoch doesn't own Sky now anyway.

Ahhh Sky, that Murdoch owned news platform that all of a sudden appeals to you as it apparently doesn’t report stuff that you don’t like the sound of!

Sky is owned by Comcast now. Murdoch is off the scene. Brian Roberts (CEO) is a democrat.

Hard to think of an individual that has done more to damage the fabric of Britain in the past 30 years. The ultimate gaslighter

Nice that I can have Sky and not feel dirty now.
