Is there any more debates on the slate before election day? My nan seems to be finally coming around on Corbyn after years as a uncritical Tory tribalist and it seems his TV appearences are what is doing the job.

I've been donating direct to the Labour party, but wouldn't be above spending some money on this. Could anyone recommend a relatively slick and simple website containing 'why you shouldn't vote Tory ' that it would be useful to direct people to if they click?

I promised i wouldnt get my hopes up about this election because of the last 2 years of politics, but i'll be damned if labour's gains arent making me get my hopes up.

Went to the Hammersmith/Fulham deaf and disabled hustings tonight.

UKIP guy used the term 'mongoloid' in his opening remarks, got the constituency name wrong and said that people who can't spell end up resorting to a life of crime.

Tory guy was smarmy and awful, didn't know about his own party's planned cuts to disability benefit, kept talking about the number of disabled people in work being increased and left early (as did his UKIP chum).

So if May gets re-elected, shouldn't they all do that? I mean, every time a Republican in America gets elected, people say they're gonna move to Canada but they never do. But that seems like a really viable option for British people, especially ones who have specialized skills like being a doctor

So when Theresa May is quoted this morning as supporting 'shoot to kill' wtf does she mean or any of the assembled journalists understand her to mean?

That when we did it with the IRA it was fine, or that we are doing it again now? Or just words are now meaningless beyond having used up a small sliver of time so that we can all get on with our decay into dusty nothingness?

forkboy84 posted:

Who'd you have to replace her? Best odds you can get on Boris, the bookies favourite, is 6/1. Amber Rudd the 2nd favourite, then Philip Hammond. Not sure Rudd would stand much chance in the light of the past few days though.

OK, it's been a while since I last read this, but is there some kind of on-line resource I can look at to find whom is best to vote for in order to defeat the Tories? I currently reside in Vale of Clwyd. Sorry if this is out of the blue, but I can't seem to find it on my own.

Oh dear me posted:

Clear, easy to use, and wrong. The LibDems have not bounced back, they're not going to bounce back in the next three days, and we shouldn't be advising people to vote as though they might.

We've got two independent polls in my constituency saying Labour is in either first or second place. If we lose it'll be because too many people are still "tactically" voting LibDem, as though the coalition had never happened.

Theresa May is promising to make the tough choices necessary so that I, a poor person, will either starve to death, die lying on a trolley in the corridor of an A&E, or be raped and murdered in my own home. I've got to respect her for telling it like it is tbh, and it's clear that we're not living within our means, and that consequently I must suffer The Hellfucking.
Labour can promise a fair wage, stronger worker protections, and affordable housing all they want, but it's just pandering and I can see right through it. Where is this money going to come from? A loving magic money tree?
Grow up and vote for the tough adult choices. Vote Tory.

Do we have a place for facebookfriends.txt? Got some loving horrendous passages to add including this gem:

quote:

the point of the matter is that too many Burkha cladded fucks are in this country blowing people up and killing innocent children. Regardless of race, colour or creed, it needs to stop. If people are remotely involved with 'terrorists' or have terrorist links they should be arrested, strung up, tortured and publicly loving hanged to send a message to the rest of the vile, mindless, brainwashed fucks that we will take it no more. War on terrorism? Bollocks. Flatten the ground they preach on and remove the fucks from society. War may be unavoidable which is a shame but at the end of the day, why should our children and the next generation have to live in fear that they could be run down, stabbed or bombed when they walk to the shop or go to a concert? It's horrific to think that in this day and age there are mindless twats that claim to do it in the name of religion.
