    So a very simple choice to be made.

    Do we want this idiot or do we want the other idiot to be PM.

    And which of the self centred, self serving parties do we want to govern.

    Democracy is great, isn’t it.

    :)

    Worst government in my lifetime.
    Taken lying to a new level.
    Wasted billions during covid on mates supplying **** PPE etc.
    Absolute farce.
    Starmer is a puppet keeping the peace until they get back in and enforce more **** on us.

    I'd rather see Newcastle win the league than them cùnts back in.

    Thought it was part of the Labour Manifesto. They will probably drop it now they will win comfortably using current system.

    But if it's a hung Parliament and the Liberals get a decent number that Labour Lib coalition could make it work

    Don’t count on the LibDems - they’ll happily make a pact but then when it happens they’ll forget their pledges. See 2010.

    I think it's harsh to dismiss an entire party due to Clegg when both Ashdown and Kennedy seemed to be good men with a vision.

    Clegg was just a good campaigner and a poor politician.

    As someone who used to vote Lib Dem’s all the way up to that point I know it wasn’t just down to Nick Clegg.
    Ashdown was good. Kennedy was a good man but was weak.

    Stick £500 on a Conservative majority! It's 18/1. Let's face it the mass majority of the working class muppetts won't even vote as usual.

    Tory/Lib Dem coalition is all I can see.

    Stamer has the appeal of a moldy ham sandwich.

    We don't all remember the glory days of Churchill like yourself though, so we're used to this.

    It's slightly less embarrassing than the USA, but not much.

    Really? All you can see? With a 15% lead in polls for Labour?

    My view. Tories won't get the hammering many expect as those thinking of voting Reform won't, and Tory voters tend to be quiet as to their intentions. Labour should regain all the "red-wall" seats, plus many in.Scotland at the expense of the SNP. So maybe a narrowish majority for Labour at the end of the day.

    Most realistic in my mind is Labour biggest party hung Parliament, supply and demand deal with the Liberals... If the Liberals win as many as people expect
