Off Topic The Politics Thread

Oh, hang on mate, this is not such an original idea, Labour and the Tories have already tried this, maybe the Lib Dems will get their chance to be elected and do nothing also

 

.

 

vote for nothing

 

i wonder if the ge turnout will be greater than the brexit turnout
what was the referendum turnout again

 

A handy guide for the many on here who will be keen to stop May winning......

It'll be nowhere near. There's complete apathy from most people.

 

I was going to write that but couldn't be bothered

 

Don't think Corbyn will be around after this one.

 

Too soon to get rid now but he'll surely walk after the disaster it looks like it'll be. Then just 5-10 years of Maysollini to ride out before Umunna.

 

May on the wireless saying 'best possible deal' endlessly, and offering nothing on immigration other than 'sustainable'. A Remainer who repeatedly said that there would be no election until 2020. Yet another opportunist with no substance.

5000 people joined the Lib Dems just yesterday.

After a long and torturous process I turned down a job in Munich a few weeks ago. This very plausible scenario makes me doubt my own wisdom. Make that sanity.

 

I wasn't very impressed with it as a city to be honest but love Berlin. What do you do if you don't mind me asking? I'm still considering Dubai once West Windsor property prices make selling the new gaff plausible.

 

I sell drugs (medicines) work on the market access negotiations side. Agree totally on Berlin, Munich a little twee and antiseptic. But it would have been fine, just the job ultimately wasn't quite right. In Barcelona now for work and have tacked on a couple of days to look around. Highly recommended. Only ever been to the airport in Dubai, have zero interest in it.

 

I'd definitely do the Nou Camp tour if you haven't already. Fantastic for food and drink too if you avoid the obviously touristy main square.

 

It would be the best thing for labour, in the long term, to get trounced.

It would be better for the UKIP agenda not to stand than to weaken the Tory position in any way.

I'll probably end up voting Lib Dem (despite Stroller's link saying that I should vote Labour).

 

With absolutely no offence intended to Dubai - it is a plastic Hell hole full of plastics.
Everything is 20% above Scandinavian prices, whatever you earn - you will spend.
You will not be a happy chappy Watford. Many, and I repeat many, many better options for relocation.
I would state that South Oxhey is preferable to Dubai!!

 

At PMQs today, Mrs May continued the usual practice of ignoring the question being asked and instead making a statement that generally fell into the category of "Labour did this, that or the other" - as if that excused the Conservatives performance. Yvette Cooper, not someone I've had much time for, absolutely speared Mrs May in pointing out her recent u-turns and questioning how we could trust her in the future. Guess what? Mrs May didn't answer the question...

What waste of time this media-driven sideshow is.

 

they are not substantially Remain down here, 50/50 I'd say and we voted leave here in East Devon and Dorset. Cornwall voted 140,000 remain 180,000 leave. Only Exeter, South Hams and the Isles of Scilly voted Remain

 

Ate tapas at a covered market stall yesterday, outstanding quality and value. On a good and wine tour this evening, Nou Camp is busy.

 

Was that the area that voted Leave then started asking questions about whether it would retain its EU grants?

 

Apparently it is our money in the first place; and seeing as most of it is generated in London I'm looking forward to it all being spent in London on vital things like HS2 and Crossrail 2. I'm sure the tax receipts on pasties and scrumpy can be spent down there.
