Jeremy Corbyn

[User62651]

You hoping for a coalition then.

Oh no I feel a ramble starting!

Not sure what's for the best tbh, ok with coalition, even a Tory led coalition, truly am a floating voter, have voted all ways in the past but for whatever reason I've taken a very strong dislike to May, prefer my Tories in the old Douglas Hurd or Ken Clarke mould. May's appeasing UKIP voters at expense of everyone else imo and doesn't understand how to lead. Don't care for Sturgeon too much either recently, SNPs balloon has to deflate a bit and in my estimations she's still very divisive, more balance in Scottish seats might be better even if SNP hold most, quite like the way Wales seems to have an even spread of MPs across all parties - healthier politically. Corbyn and Farron I dont mind but Dugdale I cant warm to for Scottish Labour, Sturgeon and Davidson walk all over her. Looking past the 'personalities' the issues of terror, Brexit, NHS, education, public services, taxes etc etc no one can fix these in 5 years imo. Think we just need to ride this next term out with all its uncertainties and see where we are come 2022.
Remember as well as the Lab/Con left v right arguments we also have SNP Indy factors too up here complicating voting and there is always crossover between what Westminster is to blame for and what Holyrood is to blame for. Not even sure about devolution now, too many bloody politicians. I like clear lines and I'd rather we had either or - either we're in UK and governed by one UK parlaiment as it was or we're on our own governed solely from Edinburgh.
Whatever happens tomorrow, economy will struggle, taxes up, borrowing up from all parties. Painted a very gloomy picture for the country on a cross party discussion on Sky News earlier and the poor will pay the price as always.
I just hope if May wins clearly she shows some humility in victory, with all that's gone on she has been weakened but wont acknowledge any fault in herself, if she doesn't learn from this election process then it's a waste of time. Being a strong leader and being pig-headed aren't the same thing.

Might end up voting LibDem, wasted vote probably but hey-ho, they have a fair chance of winning my seat anyway.

Ramble endeth!

Excellent ramble!

I'm not voting. I know, I know, Uncle Tom fought the mill owners and went off to war to fight for our freedoms. It's a freedom of choice, not obligation. Uncle Tom and his mates fought for freedom, not to force anyone to do anything.

What a dire choice! The lady who has done more U-turns than Imurg's driving school. A Leninist-Marxism led party whose politics hasn't worked in a single country in the world. An aggressive Liberal Democrats party intent on bending over and taking it from all sides. UKIP, least said the better or the SNP who will twist their win, great policies, into a "the people supported us therefore they want independence."

Best ramble of the day. Coalitions IMHO cause a mush mash of confusion in I thecase ofthe last one a dilution of the AT laws with a reduction in the time suspects could be held. One which Labour are making political capital out of but was forced on the Torys by the Lib Dems to get another bill through.

I see that Labour and the SNP aren't calling their little deal a coalition.

Totally agree
Any vote for Corbyn or May would just encourage them.

Not in favour myself but as you said "freedom of choice " and all that which sounds better than I forgot to to apply for my postal vote before jetting of to the sun.

Or "I'm not going out in the rain"

Is it raining in the UK?

It might tomorrow but I'm gaping it off to Greece.

I don't know what's worse, Diane Abbott and Jeremy Corbyn at it or John Major and Edwina Curry ditto

Didn't know DA stood for ducks ares. That is one big duck.

If she has a long term illness then as a fellow human she has my sympathy but, on the other-hand, why did JC not put up someone else before now if her ill-health was well known.

I don't think they'd announce she was ill if she wasn't, but imo it's probably manageable and is now just a good smoke screen to remove her from the campaign due to the embarrassing media interviews she's done which has exposed her to being totally incompetent.

If it's not manageable then she should never have been appointed shadow Home Secretary or allowed to go on any live interviews, either way the buck stops at Corbyn and shows he has no man management or people skills!

I think the droves of people turning out for his rallies shows he absolutely has people skills.

Compare that to the handful of people turning out for the wicked witch.

With all due respect to the Abbott haters on here, then I'd politely suggest you actually take a look at what she has achieved in her life before resorting to petty insults. You might not agree with her politics, but you'll find it damned hard not to admire her achievements.

She must have RSI from pulling out the Race Card so often.

Poor effort. Have you bothered to look at her achievements?

Of course he hasn't. He'd struggle to do that with his head so far up his own arse

I would still have a better view on reality from there than you have.

Thanks for proving my point so well.

Don't forget to pull it out twice a day so you can brush your teeth.

That I would have a better view on reality than you with my head up my jacksey. Pleased to help.
