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

Exactly. But the very pro-remainer ppl will be heard from a lot less xps

this changing the strategy line for brexiters does sound like nonsense, can't see any gains from Milne feeding lines like this to the media either. Suddenly Farage appreciation society from Dudley aren't going to coo "aw isn't that nice they want our votes".

Christ, you need both and properly localised messaging.

Not convinced a London media economics think tank type like Grace Blakely is much of an answer to this issue really.

Farage has been very quiet this campaign...

Don't think the Andrew Neil thing matters because Get Brexit Done is more like a feeling than a policy. In one there is no scrutiny that can be applied to it.

Who is this?

Farage is sulking or embarrassed. No matter how much he might wanna get back at Johnson I can't see him trying to interfere with a Tory victory

He knows when he's beaten.

You only need to peel off a relatively small number of would-be Tory voters to make a difference though. There are lots of constituencies on a knife-edge.

Not hearing very much about the Tories offering BXPers jobs and knighthoods etc anymore.

Just break Skinnock's legs then

Seriously: no xp

Here we go: Dominic Cummings: "supported by the likes of Goldman Sachs writing the cheques like they did in 2016, to ensure Remain win."
"the likes of Goldman Sachs'....???? Whatever can he mean????https://t.co/8QHLR5EsN5 via @wordpressdotcom

I also know how angry he was that the government did not immediately put more money into the NHS, as should have happened and as we in Vote Leave campaigned for.

god this "making shit up" thing is so easy

Unbelievable. Possibly illegal. Certainly a grotesque act of bad faith by ANY broadcaster but potentially fatal for a state broadcaster. #BoycottBBC #GeneralElection2019

Aw bless 'im xp

It's a parody account Fred

it was a convincing parody tho - he rebranded the full account and managed to chance the account to @BBCPolitics presumably using the barcode in place of an l. almost got me but checked the follower count first

Wtf. I thought they'd been removed by Twitter? Dang it.

It was totally convincing, and I'm not gonna pretend it didn't enrage me for two seconds.

You’re doing Lord John’s job for him and not a word of thanks comes back?

good point here, where is Lord Mann - the recently lorded antisemitism tsar when you have the likes of Cummings using "the likes of" as an antisemitic dog whistle.

Any chance of not posting shitty pointless parody tweets? We're perfectly capable of being worthless and unfunny ourselves without recourse to outside help.

Nancy Astor: Theresa May to unveil statue for pioneering female MP totally overrated anti-Semite with a puritan streak.

No Countess Markievicz statue I see

Good thread:

anyway, awake this morning chewing on something @faizashaheen said last night: that one of the hardest things on the doorstep is convincing voters they CAN have the nice things in the Labour manifesto.

— Sarah Jaffe (@sarahljaffe) November 28, 2019

I might qualify that re a widespread belief on the right is that you can have nice things but you have to earn them and the earning can only be determined by the highest earners

to save time, stet to create a set of internal brexit thread ilxmojis viz

a: everything is good not bad now, append relevant tweet
b: everything is bad not good now, append relevant tweet
c: everything is absurd chaos we're all gnna die, append relevant tweet
d: i don't understand that tweet is it a parody, yr pal grandad D.
e: fred b missing some key point
f: chairman alph scornfully bullying the fainthearted
g: calz and NV pedal-to-metal on despairing vengeful nihilism
h: matt dc being sensible
i & i: mark s and BG doing their annoying little coping pas de deux (see also all other ilx threads obv)

what did i miss

i think the point was that galloway got duped by it xp

Like I said, pointless.

xp

j: blobbymoji

yes but that's all of them

Not Blobby enough tbh.

I appear to be MIA in the mark s rundown.

re: one of the hardest things on the doorstep is convincing voters they CAN have the nice things in the Labour manifesto.

This is why someone like Blakely can be good, or at least markedly better than Jones (who tbf doesn't exactly fail at this, but doesn't go near it).

There's a contradiction between on the one hand a sick-of-experts combination of nihilism and anti-establishment feeling, and on the other a conformist deferent 'hmm these things sound good but wait can these guys actually add up numbers tho what does an expert say" attitude.

Yass bae :*

Johnson wants to be in more women Tories?

Anvil why are you pushing Blakeley this morning she isn't a candidate and she works TV studios trying to get the message that Lab economic numbers aren't bullshit.

Basically lots of lab members will make an effort on those marginals in the next two weeks. Corbyn and more leave friendly shadow cab ppl will push to keep the vote up.

f: chairman alph scornfully bullying the fainthearted

LJ -- as he has said time and time again to us all in highly tedious detail -- comes from private school and therefore cannot be bullied...I can only try my best.
