That's naughty. Let the dreamers dream for a while, Starmer really will create an orderly paradise in short order.
See there's the funny thing Turbs.I don't think for a second that he will.
But I don't think you can let such utterly corrupt and bent behaviour go unpunished.
Seems a good old chunk of the electorate agree with that going off todays numbers so far.

Like a few others it's funny how "they're all as bad" seems to have really picked up over the last six months
You bet wrong. And unlike you I didn’t vote conservatives time out Like a few others it's funny how "they're all as bad" seems to have really picked up over the last six months
Went well for you huh? This’ll be your latest mega insight

Liz Truss
Party members getting a vote is a problem, especially when they are in government. Let's not forget that the Labour members gave us Corbyn and then re-elected him a year later. This is the single biggest threat to good governance we have IMO and both parties need to change it.bhstewie said:

They HAVE to be punished. The alternative may prove to be worse in many ways, and probably will be, but to reward the current crowd is simply not something i could, in good conscience, do.
A labour government concerns, me, but its just going to have to be.

Anyone who reads Private Eye will be hoping that Tory Teeside Mayor Ben Houchen loses his position when the results are in later. Predictions ahead of time had it as a tight contest with no obvious winner, but the sooner he is sacked and an investigation is launched into the freeport there the better.
It’s very disappointing to see a crook like Houchen being re-elected, but I doubt too many of those who voted for him will have any idea about the Freeport scandal, as it’s really only been reported in PE and mad left rags like The Graun.Juxtapose this with the reporting on Rayner over an ‘alleged’ failure to pay a small amount of CGT, it’s a scandal in itself. I hope that the people who have managed to embroil themselves in the great Rayner scandal, will make the effort to educate themselves on the character of the Mayor of Teeside.

I didn't vote to punish Labour on any occasion, after either Healey or Byrne, it's more than a bit silly and ultra-tribal. The issue is about UK prosperity and a better quality of life, that's not happened in recent years and for sure it's not a guarantee with Labour by any means.
The herd can rush over a cliff with you and Stewie in hot pursuit, it's not compulsory for everyone to help with such an enterprise.

Punish, ye gods it's playground time. Punishing your face by cutting off your nose, that usually works well. Politicians will carry on being self-serving whoever we elect. They won't suffer, and there's only a few hundred of them anyway, we might and there's tens of millions of us.

Oh god yes every time you and the others defended and excused Johnson and to some degree Truss it was always about "UK prosperity and a better quality of life" wasn't it.I didn't vote to punish Labour on any occasion, after either Healey or Byrne, it's more than a bit silly and ultra-tribal.

It definitely wasn't anything ideological or "a bit silly and ultra-tribal" to do with the colour of the rosette.
Perish the thought.

What do the Eye know that the independent investigation couldn't find?
I’ve a feeling you’re going to tel us all, seeing as you’ve been so active on the Rayner thread, such a crusader. It was a genuine question, I'm a huge proponent for freeports and trade liberalisation in general (I don't want any import taxes on anything) - but it's been investigated, and no evidence of corruption or wrongdoing found, merely lack of transparency of 'value for money' for the shares issued.

Totally unelectable for a generation. They will be fighting over who can be the worst representation of the UK far right, and eventually a more moderate centre right Conversative party will emerge. This will all take a long time to work out.
Not really. Soon Labour will be in and all those currently all excited about things will be in a state of shock. Their policies will all be excuses, blame culture being the over riding factor and the obvious leadership scrap as Starmer fails to deliver. Meanwhile with the Sunak gone, hopefully a clear out and I’d predict a single term in power. Taxes hiked, open door immigration, pandering to Unions….its going to be a standard play in a badly fitting suit

the true Blues on this thread I can only think they are desperately trying to convince themselves, because it looks like most thinking people have made up their minds, and it isn't blue
Because anyone not thinking that Labour are the answer is a ‘true blue’ I can only think they are desperately trying to convince themselves, because it looks like most thinking people have made up their minds, and it isn't blue3/10
Troll harder.
Support for Labour is so strong that there has been little evidence of voters who want the Tories out tactically voting for the Lib Dems when they're in second place. They're going straight to Labour, resulting in some large swings.
Seems as though the majority do believe that Labour is the answer

‘Why did you vote Labour Sir…’
‘My local leisure centre has closed and the roads are really bad, I don’t think the government are listening to me.’
Well. As soon as the magic money tree and wand are employed by Starmer and his cronies I’m sure he’ll have a spangly new leisure centre and all the roads will be like billiard tables.
Probably the same feckless muppet who bought the Brexit lie as well.
Never underestimate the stupidity of the public for cutting off their noses to spite their faces.
