IMO they're both in the gutter with their politics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ben8884 Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 Agreed, and we need make sure the Tories never get a chance of governing again. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OptimisticPessimist Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Agreed, they should not be allowed in power again. After the awful comments he made, he still refuses to apologise which isn't surprising, but it shows even more, that they don't care about anyone, and will continue to attack everyone, espeically at the moment, trans people. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JimmyJazz Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 The culture war is all that the Conservatives have now and the British public knows it. 20 points behind in the polls for over a year now. They are heading towards a landslide defeat of historic proportions. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tyke Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Harold Wilson's 1964 election campaign used the slogan "end 13 wasted years of Tory rule". Keir Starmer will probably use that slogan again. Wilson won and Starmer will have to do something extraordinarily bad not to win too. But will he be able to do better than Wilson did (he won a snap election in 1966 but got voted out in 1970, only to return in 1974 and then resign suddenly and still mysteriously in 1976). History considers that he did a good job of reforming society in the first period but is more mixed thereafter)?  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OptimisticPessimist Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Larry the cat could do a better job than who we have currently. So, they are trying to ban face masks. Ignoring the fact that covid is still around and that some people need to wear them, along with trying to stop protests.  While a lot of people have stated they won't vote for Labour as they are currently, and with Starmer in charge, they'd still have do something really bad to not get in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ben8884 Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 Gotta love that people who claim to be about freedom now want to ban face masks. What happened to letting people choose for themselves? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ben8884 Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 As I am always wrong in my predictions, I am predicting this so it won't happen:  Labour destroy the Tories in 2024 and spend maybe 16 years in government, at least a decade.  The Tories become irrelevant and go through various leaders of no consequence, meanwhile, Farage's gang become a bit bigger.  Farage comes to the conclusion that the only way to beat Labour is with a merger/take over. Some Tories object the party is too weak to really mount a defence.  Farage becomes leader of the new Conservative party-he probably keeps the name but has a new logo.  By now, everyone is pissed off with Labour and Farage becomes PM. It might not be Farage, but someone from his party. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OptimisticPessimist Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 ^^ If only they'd become irrelevant now. Huge no to Farage being in power or any of them again. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
