Managed to convince someone to go lib dem to labour  Sure it's a Tory/Lib dem marginal, but I made it clear that lib dems are just smiling Tories

Genuinely I don’t think labour is going to win, at best, there will be a hung parliament and Johnson will become a laughing stock for pissing away a 15 pt lead, and a few key tories will lose their seats due to tactical voting.

Right wingers are loving obsessed with Diane Abbott to the point that wondering why she is wearing two different shoes takes a wierd turn as they try and figure out if her leg is prosthetic due to gangrene or her toes are amputated due to being fat and black and suffering from diabetes

+1 for Labour in a true blue constituency here. Futile probably but at least I persuaded one workmate gammon to spoil his ballot paper and deny some ERG Tory oval office a vote. That took the best part of a year of deconstructing every gammony argument he had to the point that he could no longer justify voting Tory. Even then, despite pointing out that actually his policy views aligned very closely with Corbyn, he couldn't bring himself to vote for Labour. I swear gammonism is like a loving cult, it's extremely stressful and difficult to deprogram these people. Every other gammon I gave up on and resorted to shaming them by pointing out if they'd given to the workplace homeless charity drive and then voted Tory they might has well have punched the charity workers in the face and stolen the money for themselves. Probably not going to win any more votes for Labour but I hope they feel like poo poo.

Voted Labour, went hog wild. Also like Boris I haven't drank alcohols this election but unlike Boris I'm not lying about that and donated a chunk of the money I saved to Labour + other stuff. OwlFancier posted:Alternatively just look up the most extreme left wing position you can find and just state it as fact with a smug expression. They might have all the Sun Sez talking points about Corbyn, but if you can confidently sound off about how all the land in this country was stolen by Geo. III and should be returned to the parishes and how food should be a municipal service then chances are they won't have as much of a counter other than that neeps are antisemitic.

So my cousin who lives in a rural ish uk town that's traditionally Tory (and not particularly marginal) just posted that he doesn't know much about politics and doesn't trust Boris Johnson or Jeremy Corbyn but voted green, so not a terrible result requiring immediate banishment from the family at least.

if Tories win but Boris loses his seat it probably means no deal Brexit because EU will be like "No. Not again. Just gently caress off. Just shoo, shoo, get out."
