Currently there are 58 MPs that have said they are not standing for re election. various reasons have been given. However ave seen a post that most of them are " remainers". Does seem a lot, but am not sure how many have dropped out befor
 
Lets face it, Labour have no chance unless they nuke Corbyn and all of his cabinet. Only a compete Twazock could contemplate them fit for for purpose. There are some Labour MPs capable of forming a second rate prospective government (if you're desperate) I suggest its better to come to ones senses and vote Tory or Brexit thus preventing people who have no idea of how to govern a country getting the oppertunity. Great unwashed, know your limitations.

It’s an interesting stance .. generally like golf membership voting Tory is done by social climbers.
Labour voters have pride in the working class roots and thus know their limitations.
So I think we can say that the great unwashed do know their limitations to an extent but those with social ambition want to challenge their limitations.
It was these aspirational voters that Blair targeted “Mondeo man” who couldn’t afford a merc, bmw or even a VW ( which was the working class German man’s Ford). The Sun newspaper gave this policy a boost as well.

And you got upset when people put labels on those who voted leave.🤡
 
Watching the news last night it was interesting to see the 'Not for Sale' chant encouraged by Labour relating to the NHS. It doesn't matter whether it is true or not, if they can get that to be a thing throughout this election and sit in the subconscious it could be quite powerful. Their version of 'the bus'

That was heavily discussed last night on QT, in essence the audience was having none of it that Labours suggesting the NHS is for sale. One of the independent panelists said the suggestions were Bollox. Her words not mine

Dt it Is fair to say we have differing opinions however if that is the case and Scotland gets what they want ( Independance and the EU irrespective of ignoring a vote 😉) if they keep that going in the EU fair play to them.

Sometimes it doesn't have to be right, I come back to the bus, it just has to stick. Tory HQ will be going all out these next few days to crush the idea as they know it would do damage.

I find the strategy side quite interesting. All of the sides are trying to get phrases out that stick in the mind. Trump, for all his downsides, worked a dream, or his team did, in his election. Make America Great, Lock Her Up, snappy lines that stuck and people bought into. Not everyone but enough. You don't have to convince everyone, just a few extra. All sides will be doing it, Labour just got their first effective one in before the others.

"Britain deserves better"

Better than what exactly? The party that has been in power for the last god knows how many years!!! really?
