During the US election, Trump said that he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his supporters would still vote for him. It's similar with Johnson - the people who support him do so despite that fact that he is a lying, cheating, racist, homophobic drunkard. It beggars belief.

You live in France, go and vote there...oh you cant can you? Don't tell me how I should vote in my own country. You choose to live in France, that's good, but let us decide our future here.
Guess what, I do live in a Tory town with some of the best schools, virtually zero crime, fab market town, good doctors and houses. What's wrong with that? I have seen how Labour run their towns.
Now run along and eat an olive.

The Tory's lead over Labour has grown ahead of the snap election on December 12, the latest Britain Elects poll shows.
Westminster voting intention:

CON: 39% (+1)
LAB: 31% (-)
LDEM: 15% (-)
BREX: 8% (-1)

Fortunately I don't believe in polls. I just listen to people in pubs and on radio phones-ins I personally would have the Tories on 40% and Labour on about 27%.

Sorry Staines but you never seem to see the full story. For a start you are being distrespectful to me by calling me 'Eelers'. So that's not 'insulting to other posters' as you say? I get plenty of flake on here and I have over a long period, so If i respond in return, people shouldn't cry about it.

That's where you hear real people talking. Sadly for them too many people live in the London bubble and don't know what is happening everywhere else.
I will remember your laughing emoji Stroller on the 13th. Let's see who's laughing then. I have the day off so hope you can join me on here.
Payback time.

Is it all about 'winning' for you? So you can lord it over others? It certainly comes across like that
