Hate Boris. Hate the tories. Hate the snooty bastards that don't give a ****e about the common man. Hate archaic Corbyn. Hate the utterly farcical Abbot. Hate the endless empty promises. Hate all the fake news. Hate all the lying and conniving and skullduggery. Hate all the infantile school playground insults. Hate the irrelevant Lib Dems. Hate Sturgeon the constant whining pot bellied sow. Hate that the greens have no policies of note other than the environment. Hate the Russian element trying to Influence voting. Hate the prospect of Trump getting his claws into the NHS. Hate the state of the NHS, policing and schooling. Hate every aspect of politics today. Hate pretty much every politician.

But I also hate not voting...... Tomorrow will be fun

I heard different. I heard the mother took the kid off the trolly (which was in the picture) and put him on the floor, took a photo and rang the press.
The Kid looks like he has been shot in that picture but it ended up that he was okay.
What bugs me is that she didn't complain to the hospital she rang the press? It all seem dodgy to me.

I heard it was the mother that gave the kid the cold and sore throat in the first place

Not according to Corbyn today... He blamed Boris and austerity for the kid getting ill. I am not joking. The unelectable idiot is trying every last minute desperate measure to win votes.

He was sent home the next morning ffs. It could not have been serious.

Ever been in A&E with your child? You don't take them there if you don't think it's serious. Until diagnosed, it could be anything, and I'd imagine all good parents would be fearing the worse - and a massive relief that it turns out to be something minor.

And he was sent on the advice of his GP

Yeah I have and my kid was ill. The last thing I thought about was taking a picture of him and phoning the press.. My only concern was him. But I guess some parents are different.
 
No standing down candidates is just stupidity. Voting for someone else in another constituency is unfair and once the Tories get in that little scam will be stopped.

Standing down candidates is smart. It’s probably the difference between a Tory majority and plurality so well done Sir Nige. Wish Lab and Lib could’ve worked together half as effectively where one stood no chance but to facilitate a Tory.
