She was facing losing a majority because of an expenses scandal at the last election so this basically dodges that issue since labour are polling so badly. Of course had the tories not cheated in the last election they might not have won and brexit wouldn't have happened

I'm hearing that May won't do any debates either, lmao.

Bumbling old man who is incompetent smashes her at PMQ's almost every week so letting her go up against someone like Sturgeon would be catastrophic for her

Why is Corbyn so unpopular now? i know the rank and file hate him but i thought he had decent popular support once?

general incompetence, knifing in the back constantly by his own MP's and the press going hard against him

edit: I keep confusing The Sun and Daily Mail, because the idea that england essentially has 2 Fox News is hard to comprehend.

There is also the daily express which is just as bad and has similar circulation :thumbsup:

Fallen Hamprince posted:

people say labour's all incompetent but look at the competition in recent years:

- david cameron, the guy who assfucked his entire career and legacy and possibly/probably destroyed the UK in the process
- theresa may, the lady who looked at brexit and said "yeah, i want to be in charge of that 4 sure", running as a populist despite being PM and leader of the rich people party
- boris and that hosed up puppet-looking midget who's name i forget who accidentally succeeded in brexiting and then knifed each other in the back
- snp, a party that literally only runs in a small fraction of the country
- lib dems (lmao)

that corbyn is running against all these people and doing historically badly is a testament to how unusually terrible of a leader he is

you're so dumb

Yeah I marched against it and was fairly disappointed with the whole situation. Current government would be on it like a dog on chips, too, though, given Boris Johnson explicitly said last week "well if the US asks for help I think I'd fire the missiles without talking to parliament".

labour might have done better with someone else as leader but they're still getting hosed because the tories are really popular since brexit killed UKIP and brexit is really popular.

That and labour MP's are on the whole a load of poo poo and trying to name one who would be a good replacement goes nowhere
