Re: UK election poll
 

An interesting little analysis of how voting behaviours have changed this time round :

https://www.spectator.co.uk/2017/06/...-young-divide/

Seems like the young have realised the tories are always going to sh*t on them, no matter what, and that labour offers more hope, and more authenticity.

"Strong and Stable" has been seen for what it really is "Stolid and Squalid". And people don't want what has gone before, they want change (which should have been determined from the brexit vote).

Seems like if it's not this time, then next time, the UK will head socialist.

Well I've told my proxy how i'm voting, the conclusion I came to might surprise you, but then it might not I suppose. This is the same youth that sat on their arses and allowed Brexit to happen, so perhaps they've learned their lesson. One thing that makes me happy now is the clear distinction between Labour and Conservative, which is healthy I think. It'll be interesting.

Re: UK election poll
 

I'm kind of surprised that the tories ran with that particular slogan and ethos - the brexit lesson was plain.

And to be clear, I don't think labour and corbyn are any better (I do question the judgement of anyone who could get jiggy with diana abbott), but they have run a much better campaign, and a more positive one.

It does also point up how we need an end of the party system - there should be many more choices for people to pick from - and of a far higher calibre. Whether it's the UK, Australia or the US, people need to be able to make a positive pick from a field of smart, capable, people - not a bunch of no hopers.

The gap on my London Board in the same poll 34 pct to 31 pct in favour of Corbyn with 800 votes in.

Bloody amazing.

Looking like a hung parliament according to exit polls FWIW. Oh dear oh dear

Re: UK election poll
 

If Labour get in my London office of 500 has already said it will reduce to 50, ship those they can to Dublin, and just FIFO them in.

Dumb left wingers as per usual.

Re: UK election poll
 

Smart move would be (and indeed has been since the brexit vote) a government of national unity to deal with the eurocrats and building a country that works. Time will tell if they are smart enough for that.

Looks like May is out anyway.

Surely those at fault there are your far right wing board who would take a political view on commercial matters?

And frankly, firms using the break up to benefit themselves has been on the cards since the brexit vote came in. Similar to what would have happened with scotland leaving the UK - there are financial games to play.

Re: UK election poll
 

kin hell, gotta take my hat off to Jezza. Question is, would Sturgeon be willing to swallow her 'principles' of independance, and form a coalition? Gerry Adams has already been asked, and his aim is a referendum so it was a no from him. UKIP are pretty much no more, looks like the British people really have had a gut full of the establishment.

There goes Alex Salmond! :lol:

Re: UK election poll
 

It looks like the tories will join with the DUP to get a majority.

Not sure May will survive mind.

Re: UK election poll
 

Finally a decent choice in agenda differences in UK politics again.. How long has it been.

Hopefully this will silence the Corbyn detractors on his own side who said he was poison at the Ballot box.

Don't be surprised if he convinces Sinn Fein to sit at Westminster. Seems a long bow at this stage.... but look what just happened.


The Tories are likely to have a small overall majority at this stage, but have lost a leader. What's even funnier is they've been saved by Scotland. !!!

That was close. Britain nearly had to deal with 26% corportation tax as well as Brexit.

Couple more days and I am outta here. This country really has some nutters in it.
