Can't say I paid much attention to things in 2015, but did Miliband ever attract crowds like this?

TheRat posted:Don't we all? Before I pretty much stopped using Facebook I decided to start deleting 'friends' who were openly racist. I removed like 100 people I knew fairly well in the space of a few months. I'm pretty lucky because where I live the racists learned to shut up and keep it to themselves or get the poo poo kicked out of them. Even after the 7/7 bombings my school saw you more likely to get punched for Islamophobia than being Muslim.

MikeCrotch posted:"A population is easier to manage when it is divided. Labour and Tory should unite for the common good then the public would be harder to manipulate as the press wouldn't be biased anymore. By having people argue between one another and take sides between them leaves no room for progressive conversations and listening."

YouGov predicts 50% 18-24 turnout. I know the 82% is, but the negative polls aren't far removed from the 50% that Survation has. I'm hoping the polls are wrong to Labour's benefit but despite not buying into this thread's "Hope is a Lie" narrative, I'm trying to, for want of not being played out by its music on Thursday, curb my enthusiasm.

I'm trying to stream Tayor Swift's hit album "1989" on my phone, but the 4g reception in my office is garbage so It keeps hanging and not buffering. What will Jeremy Corbyn do to ensure that 4g (and beyond) is accessible on every square inch of this disgusting, benighted island, so that I'm never left without upbeat girlpop to protect my ears from the wretched mewling of my hated countrymen?

Tesseraction posted:...aren't you taking the opposite tac from usual with this? What do you mean opposite tac? Yougov and Survation are offering similar polling figures and I believe both use self reported likelihood of voting when weighting for turnout. That tweet includes both a poll and YouGov's model forecast, doesn't it? Edit: I see yes it's a poll derived from their model, which is itself derived from polling data.

analphabetic posted:Just had a look on Facebook, and.... it seems to be full of people posting stuff about the mayor of London being a terrorist supporter. The usual right wing groups that hide in plain sight with their "like this post if you support our troops or love adorable puppies" stuff have been posting poo poo for the last two days about "Khan's links to ISIS." All of it bollocks, but it's presented in that bullshit "this is common knowledge" way and references a circular group of right wing websites that all reference each other and so ignorant people are biting. It's infuriating as ever

Just on a whim, I worked out what numbers of seats the parties would be on if they got the same vote share as Yougov is suggesting they might, and we had proportional representation: Con: 273 Lab: 247 LD: 58 UKIP: 26 SNP: 26 Green: 13 Can you loving imagine living in that world?

Labour Manifesto posted:We will deliver universal superfast broadband availability by 2022. Labour will improve mobile internet coverage and expand provision of free public wi-fi in city centres and on public transport. We will improve 4G coverage and invest to ensure all urban areas, as well as major roads and railways, have uninterrupted 5G coverage. On day one we will instruct the National Infrastructure Commission to report on how to roll out "ultrafast" (3000bps) across the UK within the next decade.

Mind you I took a looksie at that Sheffield Rally and lol they spent £100k and 18 months to prepare it. Corbyn's had at most a month to plan his and unlikely paid much at all.

xtothez posted:Can't say I paid much attention to things in 2015, but did Miliband ever attract crowds like this? No. Jezza came on a surprise visit to my constituency on what was supposed to be a low-key invite only event for CLP members. Word got out and a crowd of a few hundred people were there to greet him, so the doors got opened to everyone Even then, there were people waiting outside because the hall got filled. People in my local Labour party say that we've quadrupled the number of people helping out on the campaign, enabling us to do poo poo like canvass 1% of the entire constituency in one day and get out 10,000 leaflets in three.

Yeah it's tiring reading the constant posts taking obvious smug glee in anything that might be bad for Corbyn, followed by the occasional disingenuous 'oo but I do hope I'm wrong!' No one loving believes you. You don't want Labour to win but you just can't bring yourself to admit that you're a Tory. It's laughable, especially when you spend such a significant proportion of you're life in this thread. Anyway, youth debate tonight. I submitted a question about shoot to kill, basically summing up what it actually is (summary execution of suspected terrorists posing no active threat with no attempt to arrest), and then asking if in light of this the panel supports such a policy? E: if it wasn't obvious that first paragraph was directed at Pissflaps. E2: and if some internet strangers telling you to gently caress off with being a disingenuous prick is enough to make you change your vote then just lol, get some principles.
