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

huzzah

Duty bound to vote Tory now calz, you don't want Crobyn wasting it on free Pornhub for the great unwashed.

good reminder that *that* is exactly what I want after the rentier classes ashes are used to fertilise yet another bumper harvest and scratchcards and numbers games are banned, and I'm reduced to betting on insect racing!

there was a picture

Congrats Calz!

Re: Prince Andrew, a reminder of who ‘global capital’ refers to in this context:

https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2010/nov/30/prince-andrew-wikileaks-cables

It’s our minor royals selling overpriced, borderline-useless military gear to other minor royals as part of the ongoing effort of fraudsters on both sides to pocket the Saudi national budget.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my vote
I'm a liberal democrat, look what I wrote
Austerity loud and coalition warm, I've been kicked around
Since I was born
And now it's alright, it's okay
And you may look the other way
We can try to understand
A touch of power's effect on man

Whether you're a LibDem or whether you're a Tory
You're writin things down, writin things down
Feel the pen scribblin' and notebook page turni'
And we're writin' things down, writin things down,
Ah, ha, ha, ha, writin' things down, writin things down,
Ah, ha, ha, ha, killin' the poor

I don't really like these song lyric things but it's been bugging me.

Well done calz!

well one nightstand is about right if a fella cant handle a full cabinet i spose

Think I have more time than some ppl on this thread for Andrew Adonis but this one foxed me

@Andrew_Adonis
If the BBC was doing it’s job properly as public service broadcaster, it obviously should not done a huge royal interview during the general election campaign

Why ever not? They can report on more than one thing!

Well done, Calz!

A word of warning about those London Observer polls: the sample is only FIVE HUNDRED voters.

saw some activist on twitter say the wimbledon labour vote seems to be holding up, contrary to the observer poll

Congratulations calz!

Will free movement end after Brexit? Corbyn: “There will be a great deal of movement”. Also confirms family reunion will be guaranteed for all migrants. Looks like a 50/50 fudge between Abbott and Mccluskey wings #Marr

why are tories constitutionally incapable of taking group selfies that don’t have powerful ‘you just woke up hanging on a meathook and these ghouls are leering at you’ vibes

Kantar 7-11 Nov, re-weighted with 2017 age turnout:

CON: 34% (-3)

I see Raab is on Marr, I know he’s foreign secretary but he is honestly just...not good at this.

They got rid of safe, if boring, media performers like Hammond and Gauke and are now forced to rely on headbangers like Raab and Kwarteng or dumbasses like Cleverley - or, indeed, Priti Patel who manages to combine the two. Gove might make you retch every time you see him but at least he's adept at the handling the media. I don't think Labour are that much better though tbh.

Clive Lewis is generally very good and able to handle himself and he’s had a few appearances so far this campaign

Thurston Moore!

Not a poll expert but direction of travel is the thing to watch out for - and they basically all agree Labour is gaining.

― gyac, Saturday, 16 November 2019 bookmarkflaglink

When I said "three weeks" it was also to say how I think the gap can be narrowed considerably as we get to it. No idea about numbers, and whether Lab can form a coalition with those.

what no Michael Sheen on that list?

nailed it xxp

er, xp to gyac’s get out tweet

Thurston Moore (Fathers4justice)

Thurston Moore v. Tony Parsons televised debate or gtf.

Banky and Lowkey, together at last

Get him!

So @SamGyimah I have given you over 40 hours to withdraw allegations that are dangerous to me and my volunteers. You have not responded.

My letter attached below.

when I'm out campaigning on the doorsteps of Merthyr Tydfil all I keep hearing is: i don't know what to think until i've heard Thurston Moore's take on this

steve shelley’s silence on this critically important issue becomes more damning with every passing minute

Lee is FBPE

Boaby G must be kicking himself he never got to sign that letter - especially as his mates, Brian and Yanis are on it.

wouldn't want to be in the trenches wi' that wee doss cunt watching your back!

No wonder this country is such an angry, nihilistic, irrational place when every policy that might actually improve people's lives is immediately shot down by people who should know better.

Literally anything no matter how small, like abolishing hospital parking fees is apparently too difficult to achieve for people who also advocate the state developing something less ambitious, like a new nuclear defence system.

xp I refuse to watch this because I already have enough problems with how he says “issyoo”, does he say “sconn” instead of “scown”

bingo. but it's not about knowing better, it's about clinging to your class interests, like any shift of the balance of power could create a momentum that terrifies them

rawnsley has always been bad not good

it'll be good to remember in the nuclear winter of despair come December 13th that campaigns like these are where all the masks slip for a moment and you get to see the vampire establishment for what they really are, Rawnsley is one more nothing but the steady queue of these scumbags doing their best to piss out any hope and any will for change is a lesson to hold on to.

xp I refuse to watch this because I already have enough problems with how he says “issyoo”, does he say “sconn” instead of “scown”

sconn is the right way! Worse than that, he chooses Eastenders over Corrie, I might not vote Labour now.

you can take the boy out of London

where does a bitter old crumpled tosser like Rawnsley (whose whole unique selling thingy was being a New Labour insider) go when the soil over NL's grave has been thoroughly tramped firm and there is a urine bleached stripe right down the middle of the gravestone. he could start stanning for the fiscally neo-lib, socially centre-right squirrel killer, but that still wouldn't be like the old magic days of being the special one that get's drip fed a bit more Campbell spin than most other broadsheet hacks did.

on the politically homeless scale he's been so reduced in status by the death of New Labour (;﹏;)

scown?

s-cow-n?
