A couple of hours in and I’m already bored ****less, six weeks of media parasites repeating themselves in various formats and accents. I’d be grateful if someone could alert me when any party makes a concrete policy commitment which will make life better for the most disadvantaged in the country. Not a promise or a pledge, but a genuine detailed policy commitment. I might just vote for whoever manages this. Or I might not bother, I’ll have to get a postal vote.
I thought all the Resourceful gps brain surgeons and health workers were already coming in from France without bothering about Visa's
Surely you will want to smash Chris Mason’s face in at some stage? He is the Fotherington Thomas of political media.
There are lots of **** jobs around, but hanging around and talking about the pond life that is our political class all day every day has to be up there with cleaning out septic tanks by tongue. The lack of self awareness of Mason, Keunssberg, Peston et al, who all seem to think that they are both interesting and important mystifies me. Still, their hour has arrived. Again.
I think Andrew Marr is pretty good (he's on LBC now) - the equivalent of Gary Neville to carry on the sporting analogy. Kuennsberg is more like a Dion Dublin.
He’s no different to the rest. Has a symbiotic relationship with people who need the publicity which he gives them, and by talking about them he gets his face on telly. Bravo. Just saw Krishnan Guru-Murthy trying to give a Lib Dem MP a hard time. He looked fat. But really butch, a man of the people, standing up to the face of power solo!
Luckily I am living under a rather illiberal autocracy Takes the misery out of listening to opposition parties with hollow promises responding to clueless incumbents promising change
Lol. What a croc of ****. Firstly they're not mine. I'm not a member of any political party. Labour should get at least two terms, maybe three. Nothing will change.
Just looked at Stan's election poll. Utterly bewildering that there are five people on here who would still vote Tory after the car crash of the last fourteen years. Three for Reform (we know why that would be) and one for Green, which I respect. I can't understand those that will refuse to vote at all, though.
Yet another example of you being "utterly bewildered" by other peoples' world view. Do tell, why would it be that three people have said Reform (as apparently, "we all know why")? Why can't you understand that some will not vote?
Haven't decided who I'll vote for yet, if anyone. I have ruled out Tory, Labour, Lib Dems, Greens and Reform if that helps youngun.
My old dear doesn't vote but to be fair to her, she doesn't moan about things that effect her. Think she's too old at 70 to be arsed. She's got her house, mortgage paid etc.
