Reluctantly I’m doing the tactical vote to improve the slim chance of Lieutenant Sexcase not representing me. Not a chance though really this time.
As you said it’s a 10 year plan and you are young enough to change things in the future.
I pretty much do a four day week most weeks anyway so I’m sound. Brackers will have a red revolution if they keep building new flats but hopefully I’ll have traded up by then.
I reckon as you get older you will move out to Somerset and vote for Mogg in you old country cottage.

London Bridge victim's father accuses Johnson of capitalising on death

The father of Jack Merritt, who was murdered in the London Bridge terrorist attack last month, has directly criticised the prime minister for treating his son’s death as a political “opportunity”.
As Boris Johnson sought on Tuesday to get his general election campaign back on track, Dave Merritt accused him of seeking to capitalise on his son’s murder.
In an interview with Sky News, Merritt said: “What was required was just a dignified approach, whereby the politicians would express their regrets, express their condolences to the people affected and would then get on with campaigning in the election – it wasn’t an election issue.
“Instead of seeing a tragedy, Boris Johnson saw an opportunity, and he went on the offensive and started talking about extending the tariff for prisoners serving sentences with a maximum of 25 years.”

The Tory lead has been halved according to the latest YouGov MRP poll.
It ain't over yet.
It ain't over yet.
You really don’t understand how this works Stroller. Dream on.
Come on Ellers, remember when you called te election over after the last MRP poll? You must be getting twitchy now, especially as this poll was done before Johnson's latest **** up over the kid in hospital. Once the NHS becomes the issue and not Brexit, it's very dangerous for the Tories.
Not at all. Boris will win big... even with this co ordinated attack by various means.
The latest MRP poll still gives him a majority.
When it comes to it people will choose between him or comedy Corbyn and I know which way most will go.
why would terrorist attacks and murders not be a political issue if they take place during an election
dave merritt seems to be the one trying to make the most political point scoring here
She is getting stick on Twitter about not posting this story. I reckon she has been told to keep quiet as election is tomorrow and the Tories don't need any negative press.
