D Angelo Barksdale Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 It appears having a racist homophobe as prime minister isn't enough to disuade the usual suspects from voting for the vermin. 'A safe pair of hands aye ?' This might take a few posts, but here goes The tories have presided over a decade of wage stagnation. They've cut around 20,000 police officers in England and Wales. 21% drop in fire fighters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Public sector debt up from 1 trillion to 1.8 trillion. Public spending down big time. Local council spending down per person. Poorest areas worst affected obvs, because that's what these venal c***s do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullerene Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 1 hour ago, welshbairn said: Referendums are a novelty in our politics, we still have to learn how to deal with them. The 2016 one ignored what the electorate of 1974 decided. We've got millions of new voters who could be bound by what now deceased voters wanted in 2016. How is that fair? In 2016 hardly anyone knew how complicated the whole thing would be disentangling 40 years of cooperation. If we come out now there will be years of negotiations to come whether we crash out or not, only to attempt to get back to a similar level of cooperation and free trade and movement we have now. We should have the right to change path. How many people voted for the easiest deal in history? How many voted for more money for the NHS? How many voted leave because we hold all the cards? How many believed German car manufacturers would make it all work for us? How many thought other countries would follow the UK and the EU would collapse. How many thought it would all be done and dusted by now? Maybe we should ask. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not austerity FFS. For a poster who seems to have a (misplaced) sense of intellectual superiority, you sure are a total dunce when it comes to basic economics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 The old and the young. Sure Start and youth services decimated. Adult social care services. Oh look, it's the poorer areas worst affected again. State pension age for woman raised twice. Pensioner income has flatlined and may be actually decreasing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Looking at those facts and figures really hits home how shite Corbyn must be if BoJo and his Tory band-waggon is going to absolutely steamroll this GE tbh. Or is it simply down to little Englanders wanting Brexit done and f**k everything else that’s going to hell in this country? Probably tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible the number of people who swallow this bullshit. Lax regulation of the financial sector exacerbated the situation - but anyone thinking that the Tories being in power at that time would have done anything to change that is having a fucking giraffe. Never mind that such lax regulation was and still is prevalent worldwide. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure he's bottled it. Swinson and Farage should be fun. Corbyn got a much softer ride than Sturgeon though.
