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

This has been bugging me so I made to chart to show Centrists and the soft left why their Messiah is never, ever coming, and they need to pick a side. pic.twitter.com/xn9ueGUGZ2

I'm not sure I understand the green quadrant really?

ah yes, the famously slick-looking david miliband

i think the green panel means "the media will never allow someone on the left to look slick so you might as well stick with corbs (who we can agree doesn't"

WKD, skittles, praxis

ah yes, the famously slick-looking david miliband

i mean obviously he's god-tier, knee-tremblingly super-fuckable but i dunno if i'd describe him as slick

The green quadrant means: even if someone left was media friendly and good at optics that they would get monstered into the red quadrant. See: tons of white liberals turning on AOC for supporting Bernie over Mayor Pete.

Slick = Not member of Hamas

i mean obviously he's god-tier, knee-tremblingly super-fuckable but i dunno if i'd describe him as slick

See: tons of white liberals turning on AOC for supporting Bernie over Mayor Pete.

Surely turning on AOC for supporting Bernie over Warren? You would have to be a weapons grade hamas to think she'd support Pete rather than just self-absorbed. Pete liberals already disliked AOC

Actually a better example would be, for example, the Lib Dem candidate in Chingford and Woodford trying to link Faiza Shaheen to Islamists. Or maybe the Lib Dems in Leeds portraying Alex Sobel as “shifty”.

are you doing a bit cos I’m lost

no i am super-horny for david miliband

I know someone who met him irl and said he was extremely hot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I prefer Ed t b h

I always thought Keir Starmer was yr peak Centrist Totty but maybe D-Mili is still hanging in there.

Hottie Kier:

Not the first time @Keir_starmer has stood up to #McDonalds. Here’s his 23-years-younger self in our film about the epic McLibel trial https://t.co/Y72q1iUmcp https://t.co/1uBGfp6KcZ pic.twitter.com/AmxBjyyiXp

Ed Miliband is an absolute snack in person, David not so much.

i'm glad we can all agree that the labour party, as it is constituted today, is more fuckable than it has been at any point during its long and storied history

keir hottie says HULLO

Self-styled 'anti-extremism' and 'pro-civility' campaign just spending thousands on anti-Labour attack ads https://t.co/RdFj2qYO5d

a rich stew of cuntery

Mainstream UK appears to have little organic support and is only "liked" 94 times on Facebook, but its posts have been seen by hundreds of thousands of people because it has spent thousands of pounds promoting them as adverts.

The group makes no mention of being an anti-Labour campaign on its website or Facebook page. Information on its website shows it is backed by figures including former Conservative party chairman Eric Pickles, outgoing Liberal Democrat MP Norman Lamb, and broadcaster Rachel Riley.
Watch more

Ex-Labour independent MPs like Ian Austin, Mike Gapes, Ann Coffey, and Ivan Lewis – all vocal critics of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership – are also listed as supporters.

Would love to know who's funding these guys.

this is from a digitalspy forum post so it's almost certainly 100% accurate

MainstreamUK.org is owned by a limited company - MTCAE Ltd. (incorporated on 14/08/19 so pretty recent). They have a sole director, someone called Benjamin Tait - interestingly, someone of this name stood as a Tory candidate in York in the local elections.

Tait misbehavin'

Probably one of the wallagammon

Experts on civility, them lads

Johnson is now doing his familiar riff about how remarkable exports are. But there is a new, or newish, joke. Britain is the only country to export music to the United States, he says. That’s why they call it One Direction, he says.

what the fuck is this garbage

Ngl, I lol'd.

uk innovation, like one direction, has been on indefinite hiatus since 2016, admits johnson in shamefaced public appearance

Dugher with the disinfo as usual

Lewes is a 2 yard tap-in for the LDs

1/5

I couldn’t attend the climate change hustings in #Lewes last night, but I’ve heard a report of what happened.

Get this:

The incumbent Tory, @mariacaulfield didn’t attend claiming she was ‘busy’ and sent a surrogate in the form of a local Tory councillor at the last minute.

Harry Styles from 2017: The former One Direction bandmate hinted at his political allegiance for the first time when he told the Sunday Times Magazine that he was “probably going to vote for whoever is against Brexit.”

Style added: “I’m not educated enough on the subject to really go toe-to-toe with someone about it, but disregarding the economic stuff and all of that, I think what it symbolises is the opposite of the world I would like to be in. I think the world should be more about being together and being better together and joining together, and I think it’s the opposite of that.”

Hope 'Arry Styles drags BJ

Harry Styles once again proving how the Clinton campaign slogan transfixed the youth. Truly visionary.

Boris Johnson tells a Derbyshire audience the only mathematical alternative to him is Jeremy Corbyn "propped up by Nicola Sturgeon, and I think we all know who'd be wearing the tartan trousers in that relationship".

the misogyny is just effortless and never challenged

In case you were thinking ITV GE coverage on the night would be tolerable

The former chancellor George Osborne and his former opposite number Ed Balls will reunite for ITV’s election night coverage, the Press Association reports. Since leaving frontline politics Osborne is, among other things, now the editor of the London Evening Standard, while Balls is chairman of Norwich City FC and was a contestant on Strictly Come Dancing in 2016. ITV has confirmed that the pair will join the former Scottish Conservatives leader Ruth Davidson, as well as the former Labour home secretary Alan Johnson.

sounds like a balanced panel of people who all hate the Labour party

Does anybody watch ITV for its news and current affairs output?

at this point in the game it's not like their notably worse than the other side

fucking hell, I think I prefer Gideon to either Balls or A Johnson

at least a night on the lash with Osborne wouldn't involve listening to him drone on about Strictly or Weller
