    I have to say that there is a small part of me that would like to see these turkeys in the worst parts of the country vote for their Christmas but then I remember I’m not that much of a **** and they’d only blame Corbyn and immigrants anyway.

    Don’t worry Watford many of these crap MPs won’t be coming back. However the smooth talking Chukka has managed to leave his strong Labour seat (I wonder why)? And move to an easier seat. Limps seem to be doing this quite a bit. Very democratic?

    Just heard on Sky that a Labour MP up north with a 20k majority is worried about his seat! <laugh>

    On a serious note....
    When does the media need to stop talking about the election? Is it only on the day of voting or before?

    Took her time, my local fire station has a very diverse staff and I'm sure most inner London stations do as well. How she could make such an accusation beggars belief...

    Amber Rudd gone. Extreme Remainer politicians are beginning to realise they need to find another occupation. I could see Anna Soubry as a psychiatric nurse at Broadmoor.

    Is there even such thing as an “extreme Remainer”? It’s kind of any oxymoron.

    I’m not sure how it can be a good thing overall to artificially try and force a full-blown Brextard Parliament.

    An extreme Remainer is someone who supported Remain in the 2016 referendum and has never accepted the result. The Lib Dems are extreme Remainers because they want to revoke Article 50. Rudd really never has accepted the vote. So off she toddles. I see another extreme Remainer is also going. Owen Jones, Labour. Good riddance.

    No one should accept it given the level of foreign meddling and outright unaccountable lies told but I appreciate it would be a waste of time for both of us to cover old ground.

    Yes, let's not revisit that. Hard Remainers are falling away. Brexit will get its chance. The UK will build a new relationship with the EU.

    I agree with you there Watford. The EU should have kept out of our politics.

    In the event of getting a majority which would be an increase of over 300 MPs and thus the biggest political upset in history and a clear mandate that Brexit is more than a bit ****.

    Watford you know the Limps will sell out to anyone to get power.... ask Clegg.
    Famous saying about the the Limps in that their policy changes from one end of the street to the other. It does make me laugh how they were worried about students the other day. Especially after they f@@@ed them over.
    My only fear for Tories is if the Brexit party splits the vote, however I think they will do some deal that we will not be privy too.

    Our system is such that the third party has no real chance of ever governing as anything but a small part of a coalition. The revoke policy would require them to be the biggest party which is almost impossible and if it somehow happened no one could say they didn’t have a mandate for it.

    They sold out to the Tories but I’m not sure what choice they had given our system. All they seemed to get out of it was a load of lost seats and being blamed for the usual Tory messes.
