Ne'er get thee stitched til Booris be ditched: UK General Election 2019

Cancer patients, nurses working late shifts, and extremely ill people should pay money to private companies to get to hospital, thanks a bunch Greens. https://t.co/VXMow81qcA

i wonder why this tweet was deleted earlier

Not dawn foster's obv the green party one she's angrily replying to. They have really shown themselves not to be up for any left policies when shit get's real.

they were quite happy to seem to be to the left of Ed Mili Labour, but they have shown their true colours in recent months.

"Lib Dems with hemp sandals instead of crocs."

still playing silly bugger games

At what point does this shit become illegal? Nah don't answer that

I might just set up my own bogus polling company from my bedroom and sell all my "polling data" to the LibDems, The Graun and that lying fucking melt analitica app.

It never rains but it pours for the Scottish Tories.

That story is horrific.

whoever it is in her campaign team who tells her that the walking towards the camera shots (or at their conference - straight into the sea shot) they keep using make them look forward thinking and dynamic - rather than just like total fucking idiots is doing a cracking job.

Notebooks! Civility! Brainstorming!

They’re the Paperchase party.

This was incredibly funny

hah! footballers are such pathetic imbeciles, but that's almost Dean Windass level there!

How many hours have the BBC had as a headline that Farage isn’t running?

Oh! Just as I say that they’ve replaced it with racing news.

well done lewis hamilton's multi million dollars car

Lewis Hamilton also not standing as an MP.

He is from humble beginnings in a council house in Stevenage, so as a multi zillionaire he will just love to redistribute his wealth obv!

lool, this is Windass level tbf

not all footballers - tony watt tony watt tony tony watt was expressing solidarity yesterday

can’t believe it’s been 7 years since he scored against them slags in the champo league

Glad you mentioned it! He's p much the only footballer I follow, has always been good value and yeah him taking on our Tory bastard of an injured striker yesterday was great

Is this Lib Dem tactical voting calculator thing a bit overblown?

I know never underestmate the weirdness of people but the subsection of society that would use or even know about such a thing but not wikipedia is mostly comprised of people who would vote Lib Dem anyway

disseminating misleading or fake election data on social media is grasping, lowlife behaviour. I suppose it is part of a scummy tradition going back to the old "if you want a n****r for a neighbour" leaflets and there is nothing new about political parties lying for gains. But it could have much a wider reach than you suggest. And also the hypocrisy of a party who apparently stand against everything that was bad about the leave campaign employing the cacophony of noise and blatant misinformation method seems bad.

I don't think the Greens, as a whole, are as bad as has been said.

Many of them, I think, are on the Left and very serious and principled.

I still don't like this thread title.

It's true about the dreadful LDs picture and the funny Power Rangers if that's what they are.

DCI Civility: A hard hitting new police drama set on the mean streets of Derby. Janet Civil and her faithful sidekick Simon Notebook use their pragmatism, logic, and walking in a straight line skills to wrongfoot hotheads, idelogoues and assorted weirdos. Erudition and writing things down was never this sexy

The more press shots she can take with her former coalition partners, the better imo.

I'm sure Sam used to have a very conventional taste in suits before he jumped ship, now he never wants to take those orange strides off!

lol anvil

disseminating misleading or fake election data on social media is grasping, lowlife behaviour.

Not disputing its bad, just unsure if it actually works. Was thinking more about twitter than the hermetically sealed world of Facebook though. I'm not sure if outright fake data from this kind of source is going to be working on Labour voters in sufficient number, unless its voters that have already gone

Anyone actually know any previous Labour voters that have gone LD in the last...6 months? or are wavering?

Vote Lib Dems to get rid of Tories

LDs

Incredible that @joswinson would choose to launch her party's campaign in the most marginal seat in the country. A vote for Lib Dem in Kensington is a cross in the box for Boris' Brexit. It really is that straight forward. pic.twitter.com/21InAVq1To

Counter: Brexit has melted Caroline Lucas' brain.

am loving ppl calling the lib dems "centrist analytica"

I think Brexit has just revealed what Caroline is really about, now the space right wing Labour gave her to seem left-leaning has gone.

I think 'Brexit has melted her brain' (pun intentional?) was closer

Fuck the Greens (no pun, always intentional)

we've established I'm supporting Labour over them but that is some Dr Morbius shit, your aim should be to persuade more Green voters to support Labour not hurl abuse #BeKindOnline

Oh wait Morbs is the one who votes Green lol, I always forget

Don't forget folks, the OG Green Party was the NSDAP's #BeKindOnline #LibDemsinDisguise

can't get Transformers!LibDemsinDisguise out of my head now!

Vote how you want LJ, nobody cares, just don't pop up and tone police anytime anyone on here doesn't love the Greens. It's just not going to work.

I agree with imago.

I don't think most of the people who've been working for the Green party and going nowhere for 20 years were doing it because they were right-wing / centrist / Swinson crap.

I think most of them were, still are, good and principled people with good priorities.

If a Green publishes a bad online message -- well that person might be their equivalent of Jess Phillips or Liz Kendall. You don't dismiss Labour because those people are in the party.

you can't spell eugenics without two e's and then going GRRR! But seriously I have a strong inkling that at least 72.1 % of Greens will either be breaking neo-Malthusian nazi or breaking melt when the going gets tough.

greens being posh-friendly helps them win seats esp that labour can't, this is def a good thing

*esp locally

seats you say sir?

The tweet is to highlight how alone Labour really are -- with all its problems, like Liz and Jess and whoever else -- as the sole progressive party. A lot of LDs and Greens have chosen this moment to round up on Labour. But yeah if they get Tories to not vote Tory that's good.

If they are 'melts' - like S. Kinnock or whatever - then why have they been bashing their heads against the wall working for a principled but hopeless fringe party, to the left of Labour, for the last few decades?

The theory only makes sense if it posits a large number of 'new Greens', who have only come in in the last 5 years or so, and are closer to Lib Dem, anti-Brexit-march types. That could be accurate. But it doesn't account for their historic actvist and voter base.

I think quite a lot of ppl see voting green as a compromise instead of not engaging w/ politics at all
