Trapper John McIntyre Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Just now, Parahandy said: Dream on By the way there is only one way to get rid of Brexit immediately which is what I think everyone wants and that is if the middle ground voter votes to remain. Then it all stops and we go back to getting on with our lives. Job done Worried, are you? You should be. These are almost the same figures as 2017 except tactical voting may become a bigger factor this time. Everyone wants to get rid of Brexit? Over 1,000,000 Scots voted for it including over 300,000 SNP Voters. You're the one that's dreaming. Scotland isn't the SNP and it certaily isn't JKB either.

Imagine telling a father of wonderful mixed race kids and a beautiful immigrant wife that you’re going to vote for a racist like Boris.. Imagine that. Now what part of the following quotes from Boris do you disagree with... any off the flowing, take your time now. "tank -topped bumboys and "piccaninnies" and "letterboxes" . You really need to look closer to the Tory right to see were all the anti-semitic , homophobic and racists are.

maroonlegions Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 BBC slipping up here, and no response to counter it. 'The public love him. Wherever he turns up he's greeted like a rock star' Saturday night's edition of the BBC's nightly review of the following day's newspapers featured an almost unheard-of event - a frank, unfiltered admission of Jeremy Corbyn's massive popularity with the public. Even more astonishingly, it also included the confession that Corbyn is 'prime ministerial'. So great is Corbyn's popularity, according to the political editor Nigel Nelson, that "wherever he turns up" he is greeted like a "rock star" - and his personal qualities are so great that he is both prime ministerial and the same in private: Astonishing slip by BBC News allows unfiltered positivity about Corbyn onto the airwaves. Corbyn's phenomenal energy, stamina and work-rate were also covered - and as if that weren't enough, the strength of Labour's social care policies versus the Tories' complete absence of any was also included. The BBC presenter had asked "Very quickly, what's he like engaging with the public" - leading to an instant response: "Well the public love him." This must have created some panic in her earpiece, because she quickly attempted to divert the discussion onto whether Corbyn's public persona is at odds with the man in private: The BBC couldn't take back the presenter's 'error' or undo the impromptu honesty about Jeremy Corbyn's huge popularity that it led to. So they did the next best thing. The attacked his character. In the second edition of the review an hour later - even though it was a minute longer and didn't need to be shortened - the BBC made sure the 'mistake' could not be repeated. Video: truth about Corbyn’s popularity – “public love him”, he’s PM material. How the hell did it get onto BBC?

Victorian Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 It helps a bit the more that Johnson is exposed as the complete fraud that he is but it will only tinker at the margins. People will still vote for what they think will result in getting the stuff they want and will justify it by convincing themselves that Johnson's ****wittery is endearingly down to earth.
