If a GE does happen I don't know how I'm going to handle the lead up to the exit polls. It's going to be too much.

Undead Hippo posted:Yes, this was masterful. He wants to be seen as the cheerful can-do king. Watching his oratory disintegrate, and showing how unpopular he is completely destroys the reason why he was there. If clips get shown later there is going to be a roar of "Stop the coup" overtop. It'd be pretty easy to isolate his audio from the mic so i dont expect the chanting in any further reports.

Tbh... As much as all of Englands voters are racists it would make absolutely no sense for the tories to gain seats in any GE atm

Am I remembering wrong or didn't Guido use to be vaguely leftish at one point, rather than the British equivalent of Drudge Report?

That dog is gonna be tossed under the nearest car if the polls are really tight two days before the election.

Coohoolin posted:I'm completely ignorant on the political makeup of Alliance, is it a comparable centrist group taking votes from the right wing DUP and the left wing SF? It's a "can't we just get along" liberal grouping that attracts people frustrated by ideology who also lean liberal on social issues and are ambigious on the constitutional question (or just don't prioritise it) - so a good hoover party for moderate unionists alienated by the DUP and some of the wobbly voters SF initially peeled off from the SDLP of the "you can't eat a flag" variety of nationalism. Basically our lib Dems to be honest though "both sides bad" plays a little better here

He was always a right wing poo poo but he is also outspokenly in favour of drug decriminalisation and other libertarian causes so out of context I geuss I could see people reading on of his drugs pieces and getting the wrong end of the stick

How is this not what the Rebels would want? Like they can go (in leave areas at least) "I stopped No Deal, Brexit could still happen but bullying from Johnson has led to this".

Pass anti-no deal legislation then wait till after 31st to VoNC him, refusing the GE in the meantime?

They're being threatened with deselection so they'd lose their seats unless they're really really sure that the majority of their constituents would want them to do that and know who they are.

Many local Tory parties have been taken over by Brexiteer ultras so an election is a big threat to a lot of remainer Tory MPs since they face deselection. Whether this makes them cling on to their jobs at all costs and support bojo, or decide they have nothing to lose and so vote to stop him, eh who knows.
