I disagree. I think they’re the loudest voters and most vocal about who they’re voting for out there

Fair enough. Basing it solely on the information I’ve gathered from trusting colleagues/friends - quite a few people who I wouldn’t have thought there being any chance of voting for reform, and who haven’t made any suggestion of doing that tomorrow before talking with me, are supposedly doing so.

Reform will probably get quite a lot of disillusioned Tory voters. But they'll be spread out so it won't translate to seats (most polls say 4 max). This will probably benefit Lib Dems and Labour.

 

It could be such a weird election that Labour could win by the biggest landslide since 1832. Yet (depending on turnout) receive less votes in total than Corbyn's Labour did.

Is he stupid? 

 

 

Boats weren't as much of an issue 14 years ago

 

Just reinforces the point that they've also done nothing for that amount of time too...

A shower of shite for 14 years. They’ve never been a serious party.
 

Rather than policy, Johnson, Truss and Sunak have engaged in divisive culture wars and fantasy politics - not to make the UK better, but to pander to their egos and simply perpetuate a grasp on power for its own sake. 

 

Yes I’m biased, because I believe Labour offer adults for the job. It’s not going to be plain sailing, nothing is going to dramatically improve instantly, but what the party will bring is healing and a sense of togetherness that hasn’t existed since Cameron decided to fvck us over with a pointless and disastrous referendum. 
 

Vote for who you want - we will be a government for all of us, not just the wealthy and privileged. 
 

Merry Election Eve, ya filthy animals.

We have a new constituency partner and the Lib Dems having been very heavy in their advertising trying to get the seat against a usually strong Tory stronghold .

If the latter lost badly probably be a sign of things to come for them.

You can bump gullis because he will certainly lose his seat so it doesn't count as a portillo moment

3 Party Lee looks set to keep his though so it's swings and roundabouts!

I've an alternative game:

 

Which ex manager who could legally stand for parliament would you place in which party?

 

· Labour – Pearson (because the absolute GOAT)

· Lib Dems – Craig Shakespeare (cuddly but never winning anything alone)

· Tory – Peter Taylor (no reasons required)

· Reform – Rodgers (a self-interested cvnt who lies all the time)

· Greens – Rob Kelly (nice but utterly pointless)

· SNP - Craig Levein (couldn’t be Jock for sectarian reasons)

· Shit independent – Dean Smith (there to make up the numbers)

it seems to me that reform, bizarrely , is the new green protest vote from yesteryears..

Sad seeing mates go down the Reform Party route because they think Farage is some top bloke and are hooked by his false patriotism.

Saw this and thought yeah I know a few like that -

 

Half the country seem to take delight in liking the despicable - purely on the basis it will trouble “the other side”.

A weird way of defining oneself: by how infuriating you come off to others.

Safe in the knowledge that Farage is not going to win, and if he is one of a few Reform MPs in Parliament he can make some noise I guess.

American is it now?  I thought it was supposed to be Russian?
