Sly Posted 18 July 2021 Share Posted 18 July 2021 I think Nick Clark would have stood a chance at getting a “Liberal Democrats” over the line in the current state of Government, Starmer, like Corbyn before him does have that charismatic appeal to pull in the swing voters. Boris comes across as that bumbling uncle you’re slightly embarrassed to be related to. Starmer comes across as a bit robotic, boring and sits at home with a scrapbook collection and spending time trainspotting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just goes on about the Tories being ahead and "Keith" being a loser. I'm not sure he actually knows why he's a Tory, just that he is and they're winning so he can be smug about it. Weird. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming he is a Tory - and posting evidence would suggest so - does anyone actually care why? Because from my perspective this thread is already filling up with people who see such a thing as immoral on principle and not in need of further information.

Everyone knows that the 'FoxesTalk Polling Company" were set up many years ago and still run by hard left Labour people. I say to the management here: YOU GUVners of this place are trying to influence the general public rather than reflecting the actual mood. That's why Sir Kierthtan Starmuch is finally 20 points ahead as Tone Bliar said they should be. Right, I'll wait for Survation. Your stout support, which seemingly sits on a par with yours of LCFC, is frankly embarrassing. It's fine to vote differently to me even if I disagree. What I won't understand is this weird breed of party supporters. Really strange behaviour. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All major parties are founded on consistent groups with core values, coupled with disagreements and negotiations within the party over policies at a specific time. In fact a big part of Labour’s problem right now is that they don’t seem to know or be able to articulate what their core values are any more.

Kopic Posted 18 July 2021 Share Posted 18 July 2021 My family are all tories, I'm not sure why considering my parents (very hard up, working class) background, but I've never felt the same or voted the same. However, i'm not sure how I would vote. Obviously not tories but something about Labour really turns me off. And as a younger bloke who nearly got ****ed over by the lib dem lies about uni fees (I don't care if this has been explained away, I haven't bothered to check, nor do I care, it is how I will genuinely always continue think of them despite whatever their future policies may be, and sadly, thats politics), i really don't know where I would go. I live in a very safe con seat so probably just vote some random independent to boost their morale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your cunning word ploy. Risks copyright action from DJ Jazzy Jeff, though. Perhaps if Geoff branched out into a punk DJ set incorporating spitting and obnoxiousness, then the El-Hadji DJeff moniker might work. p.s. Have you just honoured me with your 15,000th post? To celebrate, perhaps you could post footage of yourself in Freddie Mercury guise singing "We are the champions"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Lako42 Posted 19 July 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2021 Any working person (or human with any compassion) voting Conservative after this term is not right in the head. The Tories actually hate you, they hate their new poor voters and they are laughing at you. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know photos were taken but the last time I got garbed up was pre-2000, so no camera phone stuff exists. Thank goodness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Thefox81 Posted 19 July 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2021 Always voted Tory. Never again whilst that bumbling idiot is in charge or involved.

Popular Post Carl the Llama Posted 19 July 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 19 July 2021 I used to be a staunch proponent of the importance of voting but I'm really not sure there's any point anymore. The population are too far gone and their critical faculties removed. It no longer matters what a politician says and does, the public will be told through the omnipresent media machine that it beats the alternative and enough will believe it to maintain the status quo. As has been touched on in this thread they don't know why they support the party, but they're thoroughly sure that they must. Pitiful state we've got ourselves into. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
