General Election 4th July ...

Kind of disagree with this, I want to be told why I should vote for a party, not why I shouldn't vote for the other party. I feel like this 'well at least we're better than them' thinking has landed the country in the mess it is in now.

 

I'm not a fan of Sunak and the Tories but Starmer doesn't give me much hope either

 

I would like to see a plan that, just once, the party proposing it would stick to.
At my age, I'm afraid I am just too jaded by unfulfilled promises and corrupt self serving politicians of whatever colour to believe those elected will strive to improve things for the masses.
I don't know about the song "Things can only get better", my thoughts go to The Who, "Won’t Get Fooled Again", more appropriate to the way I feel.
Ignore me, I'm just a grumpy old git!

 

I would kill for a 3rd party to join the fight, maybe the lib dems or greens. It would be so much better for our democracy. Only issue is I can't stand the lib dem leader and let's face it they don't stand a chance. Labour currently is the only hope of reversing at least some of the **** show we have had

Every view is welcome and appreciated marra... you got me humming The Who "Won't get fooled again " (in case you were referring to an earlier version )

 

Sam and Dave Cameron ? ,

 

If Labour focus on the positive improvements they can make to public services, the public will show the Tories exactly what they think of the last 14 years.

 

Anyone but Sunak.

 

Same time as Scots break up for summer. Means nowt just wanted to say it.

 

I’ve always been Tory. But since Cameron left it’s been an absolute **** show.

Labour will get in and will probably somehow do worse whilst absolutely skinting the country as they always do.

This outcome of this election will be impossible to celebrate no matter which robbing set of politicians take the podium.

 

What an utter steaming pile of ****e. It's impossible for anyone to skint the country more than this lot have.

 

I think I'm the resident black sheep of the board as I'm 100% voting Conservative and nobody will change my mind.
Do I think they've done great? No. But they have had to deal with a massive few things in the last 4 years.
I just don't trust Labour.
My hard hat is on!

 

That would take some doing.

 

The tories have been faced with brexit and Covid, 2 money draining events. Labour would probably still have us in lockdown now.

I’m not saying the tories have done a good job because they haven’t.

But the alternatives are just as bad, potentially worse.

 

I have no love for Labour but this simply isn't true and for certain no one has skinted the country more than this lot!

 

Its easy enough with the right people in charge

 

Brilliant that you can see into the future mate.

 

It’s easy, just look at the past

 

Brexit was always going to be bad but the tories have made it catastrophic so can't use that in your argument and let's face it with covid, every other country had the same issues yet we have come off worse than most. 60 billion lost on dodgy ppe contracts to tory donors probably doomed that for us
