Match Day Thread General Election 8 June

Mine was a guy called Mr Dynamite, and his selling point. Had a bigger and pointier hat than any of the other standing candidates.

I hope that they [...monster raving loony party] stand in the area I'm moving two, but considering that the three top voted parties by a long shot are Tory, UKIP and BNP, hardly doubt it.

 

IMHO... the Tories should announce in their Manifesto the privatisation of the BBC ...after they are privatised the BBC could 'Come Out' and become a fully paid up member of Momentum or even worse the LibDems

 

The Raving Loony Party's greatest achievement in politics was to end the career of Lord Owen. Screaming Lord Sutch beat him into 4th place in a byelection, and immediately offered Owen a coalition. The humiliation was too much even for Owen, and he resigned from politics, and has hardly been heard of since

 

whens the French election?

 

First round of voting 23rd April.
Assuming no candidate wins more than50% of the vote the top two go into a vote on the 7th May.

 

A busy 6 weeks coming up for me now, lucky the football season is coming to an end

First round on Sunday

Run off two weeks later

I hope Fillon makes it through

 

Interesting to note that the Conservative press contains no criticism of Corbyn today. Hardly a whiff in fact

 

Is this connected to the recent retirement of Geoffrey Levy, the Daily Mail writer who made his name with his diatribe about "The Man who Hated Britain", aka the late Ralph Miliband?

 

No.

It is connected to "saving up your ammo"

 

After listening to Tim Farron my fears about Labour being overtaken by the Lib-dems have disappeared. Paul Nutter's Ukip is a busted flush, so I am quietly confident that the Conservative majority will be below 200.

 

Yes, isn't he a lightweight.

 

@Royston new avatar.

 

Has it persuaded you Don ?

 

Shrewd early tactics from Corbyn today, highlighting Southern Rail & Philip Green

 

Won't make a difference. It's like Hamilton scoring in the first minute against Celtic.

 

No. You have to be a mongoloid and/or rich to vote for the Conservatives.

 

I'm not rich

 

I regret to inform you, you are a mongoloid

 

Ahh, like FHB you also assume I will vote Tory
