    It's funny, only because it's so absurd... don't wish that on you, or the UK, but I would still laugh at the absurdity.

    Brb's voted for all of them going back to Anthony Eden, except Rishi. He's a Tory member.

    I had forgot Boris WAS actually voted in by the public. So, I guess it's only two who haven't so far.

    Stats wise, since 2010 UK election turnouts have been higher than the Blair years and since 2010 the Tories have won every single popular vote.

    Boris jumped on the Brexit **** show because he knew it would win him votes.

    Same bloke was praising the EU a couple of years earlier. He's nothing but a turncoat opportunist.

    Loves a football ground speech does Keir.

    I've noted Tories popping out the woodwork already. Might be closer than some expect

    It felt a bit weird because I'm use to the current MP for the area Rehman Chisthi (Tory) going to Gillingham games, so Keir Starmer is well poaching there, and to get the use of the Gills ground from the new owners must make it feel a threat to Chishti seeing that. Gillingham shouldn't be Tory anyway ffs but probably because that includes Rainham (Kent) it scrapes him through, I think it's something like a 15k majority previously, .

    Just listening to some commentary about how Rishi’s team will be working with him to try and make the billionaire PM appear as though he is in touch with the common man in the street, whilst citing the time they released some PR shots of him filing up a borrowed Kia Rio at Sainsbury’s and then struggling to understand how to pay for the petrol <laugh>

    Thing is though, your average Brit won't even think about him being a billionaire, doubt it crosses most voters mind, but the Brits do love a good fall guy, the blunderbuss routine worked well for Boris, you recited it yourself yesterday, the zip wire routine with a union jack - it's memorable. So his campaign team only need to do enough to get a hung parliament, and although Labour should win by a landslide, I look at it like I did the Man City v West Ham game....never ever take anything for granted like arsenal fans, because as Brexit demonstrated it has a nasty habit of biting you on the arse. So maybe Starmer actually having a few blunders himself wouldn't be such a bad thing, because that's what life is all about, because at the moment he's probably seen as a cardboard cutout, rather than the oppostion leader, and at the moment boring might just win it, but might carries an element of risk.
