Tories were always going to win. But Abbott is awful and has been all her life. She needs to be dropped.
Been saying that for years but then half the politicians in there on all sides aren't there for the public good anymore. It's all about themselves and what they can get. They fight for good causes for their own glory. A few are very good actors but when they "achieve" something for a good cause they tour the studios to soak up the plaudits and make sure they get the credit on their CVs (people's memories) so that they can always refer back to their successes ignoring the things they failed on, ignored or plain and simple hid away because it suits.
I know people will come on here and say Jeremy or Caroline Lucas are different but they aren't. They may not be anywhere near as bad as some and certainly not as bad as blaggers like Abbott but they still sell themselves out if it suits them.
Have there ever been any that aren't in it for themselves? Jeremy just sounds like another populist to me. Selling a grand vision that he knows won;t be achieved and a chunk of it he doesn't even believe in.
Abbott has only been in it for herself utilising her black roots and minorities to blag her way to the champagne lifestyle. Others use different tactics and strategies to get there but that is their goal. Their own egos and the trappings that go with it. Sell it to the people and let them believe they are trying to help us but they don't care.
What we now have across the western world are all sorts of parties utilising populism. Who can convince the public they care the most wins the pot of gold.
Normally the best actors get the top job. Blair, Cameron, Clegg were masters of the expressions. Angry face, concerned face, disgusted face, sympathetic face, caring face. Brown not so good. Farron's acting is terrible. May is absolutely wooden. Maybe Corbyn is one of the top top actors? Ahmed Sheik puts on a good concerned face too while she drives custom to her law firm fighting the cases she is "so concerned" about.
