What's the chances of Boris losing his seat? 5000 majority and a keen, local Labour Party candidate.
What happens if he does lose? Other than widespread flooding as people piss themselves laughing?
SD.
I would be happier than you could imagine if that happened, unfortunately I suspect he'll be safe. What happens if he does lose? Other than widespread flooding as people piss themselves laughing?
SD.
There may possibly be something of an inversion in this GE, with Tories gaining ground in the north and losing ground in the south.
Aneurin Bevan's line holds truer now than ever: "How can wealth persuade poverty to use its political freedom to keep wealth in power? Here lies the whole art of Conservative politics in the twentieth century."
Twenty first century: more of the same.

I suppose BV in the end the people without wealth must both hope and believe their best route to future wealth lies with the Conservatives.

Sure, some folks a getting a small slice of the pie, Labour believe in cutting up the pie differently. Conservatives believe in making the pie bigger.

It certainly does for the Labour party, with their million pound homes, second homes and private education galore while promising to use the 5%, the billionaires to take private sector jobs into the public sector for people in new council houses.Breadvan72 said:

As others have said, BV, the politicians across the floor are from the same stock. We've got a stoker's grandson and a bus-driver's son amongst the Tory MPs and we've got a third generation establishment member as a Labour MP, as a few examples. The boundaries of 'wealth' are blurred between the parties. Aneurin Bevan's line holds truer now than ever: "How can wealth persuade poverty to use its political freedom to keep wealth in power?

After these three years BV, have you realised that, as well as financial wealth, Self-determination was also a motivating factor, something that's not based on money?
I am neither wealthy nor retired. I do not know why RNN thinks that I am either.
The always literal minded rightists are failing to see what Bevan was talking about. He was talking about the Tory appeal to people who are routinely harmed by Tory policies. Voting against self interest is a big factor in all elections.
As for self determination, the UK has always had and still has that. Brexiter myths on that subject remain mythical no matter how often they are repeated.

Well, PH denies that Brexit is all about Xenophobia. Oooops, pity that Johnson does not agree with you! He is now out in the open as the Populist thug that he always has been. Go for the basest instincts of the base. It will probably work.
Poor BV, you need some help Fella. You are writing nonsense, worryingly for you it's becoming the norm and not the exception.

Ah, Breadvan72, your posts usually stand out above the shrill rantings of Momentum crazies. I fear you have become one of them. Populist thug? I mean, really? Thug? Perhaps you should stay away from the booze for a while.don'tbesilly said:

Pathetic. No arguments, just weak insults. Listen to the latest Johnson blurb on migrants and tell me that is not thug politics.TheRealNoNeedy said:

Erm you might have got that wrong .......Excuse me while I laugh at you
There’s a very clear reason why many people in that line of work practice in Cayman and the BVI.
BV’s underlying message is right - Corbyn is a nutter which means, thankfully for Boris, this election will be fought on very lowbrow terms namely “we’re not him” and appealing to base instincts around ingrained prejudices.

Perhaps you could think about dragging yourself out of it, you're becoming a laughing stock.
