The last opinion poll that had Labour in the lead was in July, five moths before the election (and that was caused by the ephemeral rise in Brexit party support); subsequent 150 odd all had the Tories winning. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_for_the_2019_United_Kingdom_general_election holystove 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 This slump in Boris and the Tories ratings is far to early in their tenure, which gives them plenty of time to turn things round before the next election, unless of course there’s a second spike or Brexit goes terribly wrong, and they are forced to resign, I live in hope.

Shows the libdems really screwed up with their 'revoke' policy; Change UK was a complete joke ; there's 20% normal Tory voters, the other 25% are brexit party/ukip thugs ; unlike other European countries the Green movement never got going in the UK (at least not for the Green Party) ; .. I don't know what it says about Corbyn but Labour really could have used all those wasted libdem votes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 I can’t wait for the commons to properly resume, PM question time is going to be a blood bath, with Johnson and his front bench being slaughtered by the opposition parties, Starmer will question him like he’s in the dock, and the only verdict will be guilty of allowing 25,000 more people to die than should have, by being more concerned about Brexit than the life’s of the British public, and employing the Trump philosophy to Covid-19.

Palfy Posted June 18, 2020 Report Share Posted June 18, 2020 Boris Johnson claims he never new of Rashford’s free school meals fight until Tuesday. I believe he new but didn’t give a shit because he was more interested in Brexit, the reason why he was so blasé about Coronavirus, he cared more about pushing Brexit through than the 10,000s of life’s he could have saved if he paid more attention to the pandemic in the early days. The mans a corporate murderer who cares more about Brexit than people dying and whether children starve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 David Lammy MP accused the Conservatives of using Churchill’s statue to wage a “culture war” as a distraction tactic: “Labour isn’t talking about Churchill’s statue. The Lib Dems aren’t taking about it. The Greens aren’t talking about it. The only party talking about Churchill’s statue are the Conservatives. It’s bizarre. They want a culture war because they want to distract from the real issues.” Political activist Femi Oluwole echoed this, claiming: “Boris Johnson wants a cultural war because he wants to get people riled up and defensive of things they hold dear, be that statues of war heroes or bad or faulty people. He said it was “quite predictable and tragic” that in response to mass protest about a black man who was killed by a police officer and huge cause for protest on systemic racism in the UK, the Prime Minister had decided the “real victim was statues from years ago who were white supremacists”. https://inews.co.uk/news/uk/racist-statues-uk-outrage-york-minister-roman-emperor-constantine-removed-462107?fbclid=IwAR2X60bV6q87LUW08xf-jeSVvCNfkxSjTjMcDhd-nf0Meo7en_P7_pnB67k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
