Mikey1874 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 1 hour ago, joondalupjambo said: Many people will vote for the party that the media tell them to. Many will vote for the party they think will put more money in their pockets and allow them to maintain their current lifestyles. Many will vote based on sound bites only. Many in England in a two horse race will vote for a party because they do not like the person, or their personality of the other party. And on, and on and on and it goes. Boris is exploiting the style of a populous politician, as was Jeremy Corbyn funnily enough however see first point above. It was the media who told the English not to vote for Corbyn because he was a nasty, leftie, dangerous old codger. What was left? Boris, a chap who was going to get rid of Johnny foreigner and wave the Union Jack in the faces of those pesky Europeans. The key to the next General Election will be not people's memory, not who went to what knees up, how many died of Covid, not how many refugees were killed in boats because of UK policy but it will simply be is the next Tory splaffer more acceptable to the elite than Stamer. As soon as Boris is removed the Tory party will believe that they can start with a clean slate and boy will the media help them do that. Then voters will be told who is best to vote for by Rupert Murdoch and his media empire. He controls the elections not the voters. So sorry a bit of a ramble but in answer to your key question, yes the masses can keep slavishly keep voting Tory and that is the very scary thing in all of this. Fair analysis But sometimes the public just turn. Covid is more popular issue than some think. Most people support Covid restrictions which isn't discussed much. And if a Government loses the people there is no way back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the only Tory that I’ve heard said he should resign if he’s guilty There's another Tory MP who's been filmed outside Westminster saying that he can't fathom how on earth anyone would have thought that party was a good idea and how he believes that if the facts are as speculated, then there's no future for Bozo. Didn't catch his name but he had a big old wobbly neck on him and a pink tie.

So nurses are expected to start shift work whiling adhere to a park and ride bus schedule (see Sooperstars post above) or have a lengthy walk to park their cars. Cheers, I didn't know it was changing, last I knew was staff were having to pay through the nose to use the car park, which is criminal imo, it's a private company that owns the car park or something like that, isn't it. As I said, fortunately at the BGH it's free for staff & visitors, and long may that continue. There has been a few times it's been mooted but is always hit on the head, probably in part because we don't have the same transport links that you folks in Edinburgh do, also staff come from all over the Border region and that's a big area, a few even as far as Berwick upon Tweed.

People like Nigel Farage steering what direction your country goes in for the love of **** Absolutely mind blowing. I’m actually surprised Farage hasn’t started an English Independence Party. If the official government figures are to believed then Scotland is a financial basket case only propped up by the money flowing from England. That then begs the question; what does England get out of the union? It has to be one of 3 things: 1) England is a very philanthropic nation that is concerned with the welfare of all citizens on the island and is happy to spend more per head in Scotland than in other regions of England. 2) It’s about control, the last death rattle of the empire involves London grasping desperately to what it can influence and make decisions over to try and keep itself relevant. (See also foreign wars) 3) The government figures are nonsense and Scotland would do just fine as an independent nation on a par with the Scandinavian countries and Ireland.

Footballfirst Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 From the BBC A long-standing Conservative MP predicted that Sue Gray, the civil servant who is conducting the internal inquiry, would "let the PM off on a technicality" - that Downing Street was both a household and a place of work.
