Gonzo's Erection Thread

Firstly FFS

Now the serious bit

The most marginalised, desperate and yes vulnerable people in society will suffer, even more than they do already

For example, I volunteer at a supported living place for people with disabilities and other issues and the carers are already stretched, on pretty low wage, really long shifts but doing a brilliant job but they are tired and at their limit, you can just tell

Then there's the resources available for the people who use and need the centre, they make the most of what they have but it's already stretched again and you wonder about the future for places like this

It's not that people in these situations aren't society's last thought, it's that they're not any thought for many many people, unless they happen to have a relative who is suffering from some sort of disability issue

Then there's the rampant rough sleeping you see in a lot of major northern cities, was in Manchester recently and it's got really really bad there

 

****ing morons, that's why.

 

Yeah. There's Jeremy Corbyn. Labour will never get anywhere with him in charge. He should step down for good of the party.

 

He won't, though.

 

Yup.

He and his remaining cronies (given anyone decent left him totally) are unelectable.

 

No he wont he will ride it down in flames then claim betryal and dare anyone to removr him.

At this point 100 seats left might be no longer impossible

 

In my Ward in Shrewsbury the choice was Conservative, same bloke for the past 25 years, or the Greens, some muppet in sandals. For the county election it was those two plus a Lib Dem. Labour never bothered to put up a candidate.

 

Nice.

 

The Green Party have got a serious image problem

Apart from Lucas and Bartley who manage to look professional and capable and probably are, their candidates don't help themselves by looking as you say, dishevelled. One who was standing around here recently was like - and I'm just saying this objectively because appearance is a big part of the political game, especially around elections - obese, sweaty looking, scruffy like he'd just dragged himself out of bed. This was in his official leaflets remember. I'd vote Green but not for somebody who looks like they can't actually look after themselves, nevermind an entire constituency, and ultimately the country's political system as a councillor or MP

Finally a viable 2nd party to challenge the SNP in Scotland.

I see Abbott has struck again. She was being interviewed about Labours performance in the local elections and the interviewer asked her

" How many seats do you think Labour have lost to date"
Abbott "About 50"
Interviewer " At the moment it is 125"
Abbott " I checked before we came on air and it was 100"

Then why say 50 you plonker, why not say "before we came on air it was 100"

For Corbyn to stick with her she must have been one hell of a shag!

 

The Rubbish Party! Corbyn was planning on using that name to rebrand Labour.

 

That is truly amazing.

She basically admitted a barefaced lie to camera.

Wow.

 

to be fair its not like anyone took her seriously anyway.

 

It's not a barefaced lie it is an alternate fact.

 

Alterative facts are fine once you brazen them out.

Admitting you knew closer to the final number and saying half it is brazen

 

How is a politician telling a barefaced lie to camera amazing?
