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

Thornberry and Starmer are out all over the country campaigning in marginals - Thornberry is in Canterbury with Sandi Toksvig lol. Not sure what is going on with Abbott.

Was this ad posted btw?

I'm sure Burgon has been out campaigning too but, for some inexplicable reason, he's the one that gets the phone call.

he's such a charmless buffoon. I'm starting to hate him tbh.

he always seems ill-prepared and gets blustery when he realise he’s over his head - i really wish they’d stop wheeling him out so often

I saw this clip where he arrogantly assumed that Sky woman was commenting on something she hadn't read - he was wrong and it was a really bad look when all the sympathy goes to the Sky News presenter rather than an pol of the opposition party ffs

SB again:

The Prime Minister has basically copied and pasted my blogpost into a thread and passed it off as his own explanation.

A blogpost which I had to write to rebut the lies he spent yesterday spouting.

This is weapons grade shithousery. https://t.co/pnowlm60Y0

they’ve honestly announced so many good policies now it’s easy to miss some

Starmer is my MP and I’ve seen all his publicity about marginal campaigning. RLB was very good on the Welsh debate but Burgon is on against Rishi Sunak so he may well duplicate the RLB line about Sajid Javid being one of the crash-causing bankers, which was great to see and very well-received.

Andy McDonald is someone who should get sent out more often, he's very calm and composed, articulate and won't brook no tory bullshit. This obvious rampant baldophobia needs running out of the PLP!

him squaring up to raab has been one of the highlights of the campaign

he was very good on QT last week as well.

Agree on Andy McDonald, would love to see more of Johnny Mac obviously but also Jon Trickett if we’re just saying shad cab.

Oh God, Trump is coming next week, isn’t he?

shouldn't that be oh good? boris will have to be nice to him and his approval rating is even low with tories and the NHS of course!

Trump is bound to say something stupid too.

🤞🏻 Labour will be after Trump saying the NHS is on the table and Trump endorsing Boris/attacking Corbyn. If I were them, I’d be hammering the message that Boris is too much of a coward to attend debates/interviews, so why would he stick up for the country in trade negotiations?

Boris is a top-notch deal maker.

jack merritt (the first named victim of the london bridge attack) seems like he was a real one. rest in power

I wish when Boris pats himself in the back for his time as London Mayor, i.e. sitting on his arse and taking the credit for other people's ideas and hard work for 8 years, that some of his own bright ideas were thrown back in his face.

Here's a pic courtesy of PA of Jeremy Corbyn eating fish and chips in Whitby.

give us a chip jez

Thank God Lewis Goodall bothers turning up to work, tbh (thread)

Ian Acheson, a former counter terrorism officer wrote a report in 2016 saying the parole system wasn’t coping with terrorists. Michael Gove, then Justice Sec, accepted all but one of the 69 recommendations. But when the report was published, under Liz Truss, only 12 remained.

finally a lib dem campaigner is suspended for making shit up:

Loool bang on point

"Islam, blood and grievance"

John only knows about two of those things.

LibDems are perhaps working on the logic that lying more often than tories will allow them to peel off some of their voters

look at Corbyn scoffing those chips cooked in beef dripping - how can you can trust a fake vegan with national security?

don’t think he’s vegan but the dripping thing possibly didn’t even cross his mind, that or maybe he just doesn’t gaf. me and my son rode our bikes from brighton to whitby in the summer and as soon as we got to yorkshire we totally had to bin our convenience-oriented high-carb chip-based nutrition plan, whole place is awash with secret lard

thought the fish and chips were better in saltburn tbf but whitby’s still p good

Some of these northern chippies are not used to folk saying "er.. excuse me could you tell me what do you cook your chips with please?" you might get slapped in the face with a haddock!

probably cause much more offence than ordering 3 portions of bits when they tell you they are free.

Arrrrgggh this televised debate, god help me I’m ready to set about farage with s haddock myself

First Jonathan Bartley peddles Islamophobic narratives by calling for a ban on specifically halal meat. Now Siân Berry is calling for community infiltration - proven to disproportionately impact Muslims. The Greens coming out full force in their contempt towards Muslims.

jesus wept

not watching - hearing burgon handling himself well enough?

not watching it myself, just reading other people's responses to it.

have you got a link to the story calz? xps

Burgon is okay but seemed vulnerable on trident, farage is a revolting cunt of a man, audience really don’t like trump and not giving out much warmth when johnsons character is discussed either

I thought it was Maliha's response to something she has just said during the televised debate about police infiltration of Asian communities?

I'm not watching this shite, but she's normally a reliable poster.

Totally missed that then, must’ve been a very fleeting reference, but will admit that I’m not really tuned in to that particular issue

Burgon taking a few hits towards the end, especially over labours failure to improve health and social care provision in wales (he smirked in a particularly oily way when the PC guy put that to him)

I feel so much happier for not watching a second of this!

PC guy got a glove on RLB the other night on the same point. you'd think the handlers would have coached burgon on a line

turning into a sentimental old bastard - every time I've seen that poor cameron kid (from the dispatches thing) on the tl today has me near welling up

^ Smirky burgon

so many malnourished looking poor as fuck kids about these days, it's a fucking disgrace.

Lmao Rishi got handshake denied by Farage at the end. There’s probably a think piece in that.
