European Election - 23rd May 2019


Enigma

Recommended Posts

I'm voting Green and I hope they get one of the seats. These elections are fucking farcical anyway. There will be a 40% turnout and the winners will be out a job in a couple of months. 

It's going to be tortuous listening to self serving twats like farage claim some sort of great and moral victory.

I've been wanting to not vote SNP in a while due to being seriously pissed off with some individuals in the party, but as indy is the number one priority then it is impossible not to vote for them in normal circumstances.

In terms of leadership, MPs, party members and party voters I think they are both all over the place.

I genuinely could not even call the Conservative Party as a whole pro-Brexit.  That’s why they will take a thumping on Thursday.

I will make this prediction, if Boris Johnson becomes PM there will not be a clear No Deal Brexit.  It’s one thing to posture and pontificate, it’s another to lead the country into a potential economic crisis.

 

If Boris becomes Prime Minister, he won't get any further with the EU than Theresa May.

On the other hand, he will probably teach us how to swear and curse in Latin.

As the good  thickos  folk of Scunthorpe are perhaps about to find out, as what's left of British Steel peers into a 'Brexit-related' abyss.  Lincolnshire, one of the highest Brexit-voting areas in the UK.

I've only had one leaflet through and the was for UKIP. I stay in Coatbridge so quite surprised I've not had SNP, Greens and Labour through the door.

If you don’t already know how to curse and swear in Latin you don’t deserve the vote IMO.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry, that should have said Dundonian, not Latin

Oh Lincolnshire.  Who needs a blue passport when you can go to Skegness for your summer holidays!

Money doesn't grow on trees you know.

Why should the gov/t fork out £30Million just to save BS and around 7,500 jobs?

It's not so long ago they had to fork out a trifling £1 Billion to get the DUP on their side thus enabling them , as a minority gov/t to get all kinds of legislation passed through the house. That was a very successful investment.

And of course all this has nothing whatsoever to do with Brexit - confidence in British industry is still sky high.

What's infuriating is that if the Brexit Party did get a third of the vote it will be interpreted as vote for Brexit - blithely ignoring the two thirds who haven't voted for them.

It'll be spun both ways by either side.

Unless they get 51% of the votes cast. Which is incredibly unlikely.

What do you expect?

The fact that the sun rises in the East and sets in the West is interpreted as a vote for Brexit.

Why are people pretending on here that a vote for labour should be counted as anything other than a pro brexit vote. Corbyn is a confirmed fucking brexit fruitloop and will deliver it.

There is a distinction between a political leader and a political party.

If I was a remainer and a Labour/Toryvoter, I would not be voting for them in this election. They have both "said" that they will respect the vote and are trying to deliver Brexit.

You have to take that at face value and vote LibDem in England or SNP in Scotland to be counted as voting remain in this pseudo Brexit referendum.
