    Wasn't it the Tories who forced Brexit through <laugh>

    And didn't we waste money building Nightingale hospitals when we don't have doctors and nurses for the real ones?

    Do you not remember the note left by a Labour MP when they lost the election after they were last in power...There is NO MONEY left.

    Tories waste billions on PPE contracts to their mates which goes in the bin - Covid's fault.

    Sunak makes a **** up by not insuring against interest rate rises and costs the country £11bn - Brexit was always going to be hard.

    Global financial crisis which sent banks worldwide under - Labours fault.

    Not as cut and dry as that but the national debt is approximately £1 trillion higher than it was at the start of this Conservative government and all services have been cut at the same time. The idea that they're fiscally responsible is absolutely laughable.

    When you say “forced it through”, they were acting on what the public voted for. Anything other than “forcing it through” would have gone against a democratic vote.

    To the second point, I’d be interested for you to name 1 country in the world that didn’t make mistakes during Covid.

    What I will say though, is the tories had us being the first country out of lockdown and showed the rest of the world it was fine to come out of your house.

    Mass Immigration is killing the UK, it will get so much worse with a Labour government, Labour opened the floodgates, the Tories couldn’t shut them, Rinse and repeat.

    Yes a tad sarcasm there cos there was plenty and what is failed to be mentioned is it is a common joke passed from governemnt to government. Far worse this time though and much closer to the truth

    Rolando Rat was never voted for by the public and he will get the trap.

    Record immigration under the Tories mate. What Labour did pales in comparison.

    You said 'The tories have been faced with brexit' as if they had no say in it, that's nonsense.

    And wouldn't you say Boris suspending parliament helped force Brexit through just a little.

    "Boris Johnson's decision to suspend Parliament for five weeks was unlawful, the Supreme Court has ruled.

    Judges said it was wrong to stop MPs carrying out duties in the run-up to the Brexit deadline on 31st October."

    Why not, they've had 14 years and a massive majority.

    I've only ever returned a vote for Labour in my life, I abstained for the last GE. I won't be voting Labour or Tory this time, I feel like the Tories being ousted is almost a guarantee so Labour don't need my vote, I don't particularly like them either. I'll look for a third option.

    You do know that was a traditional joke from one outgoing minister to an incoming one? Also, the bloke receiving the note had to resign after just a couple of weeks due to the expenses scandal. Said incoming minister has since apologised for weaponising the note.

    Managed to lose to Liz Truss who was outlasted by a lettuce. Doesn’t say much for Sunak really does it

    So will I. I’ve had mates telling me to vote for The Reform Party, I’m gonna have to read up on them, I don’t trust labour anymore.

    But how does that stop them doing something?

    And where were these tens of thousands?
