So bets on people, will Fromage suggest a pact or go whole hog?

crispix said it would be the height of stupidity to pact because Farage wants us to stay in the EU to keep his grift going. I tend to agree.

I think it's more about the fact that once you reach the date of a "future" film in real life, it is no longer in the future. It is currently "present" and will soon become the "past."

Farage giving an easy answer to why he doesn't care if he splits the vote: Johnson's deal isn't Brexit, so unless he drops it he sees no difference between that and Remain.

I'm really just hoping that the Lib Dems just repeat the 2017 campaign all over again, only talking about Brexit but then get asked something about policy and after just replying about Brexit finally come out with something bollocks like the 1p NHS tax.

My Conservative MP won with a majority of over 16,000 in my constituency in 2017 so there will be no significant splitting of the vote by the Brexit Party. It's hard to get motivated about voting when your constituency is a foregone conclusion.

Get the momentum app and find your closest marginal and get campaigning! If you have to live under a tory oval office at least make sure he's miserable due to being in opposition

This thread obsesses too much over the lib dems. They are conversely pathetic laughable but dangerous and could be the doom of the country. It's like something I remember Eco writing about.

Look to the bright side and stop staring into shadows.

Their actual ideas are pathetically laughable. Their popularity amongst brain spidered centrist dads makes them potentially the doom of this country and they vote to give plastic bags votes as we no deal brexit.

So this is kinda out of the blue.

Great news though. But it really, really smacks of "we've had a terrible week, we need to do something to get control of the agenda again... uh... uh.. fracking is banned!!"

I hope they get no political capital out of it and everyone constantly reminds them they defended fracking to the hilt extremely recently.

Also lol, a fracking lobbyist is writing their manifesto and they've done this.

Watch as something exactly the same as fracking but called "watersourcing" is made the flagship energy policy henceforth.

Hey thread, do we have any evidence/material regarding Swinson / the lib dems being poo poo on the NHS? I'm marshalling my arguments to persuade my sister to vote Labour rather than Lib Dem and I think a heartfelt appeal pointing out how important the NHS are/have been to my family would be a big factor in swaying her.

It's actually kind of devious of them not to have any policies besides remain because like Brexit itself it allows you to project whatever your own values are into the gaps.

I suppose the Aldi method of car parking validation works, where after you shop your receipt can be scanned by a car park validator where you put in your registration and it's taken off the fine list.

In this case when you go to whichever desk for your appointment you pass on your registration and it's taken off the fine list. For A&E you just do it when you're reporting your issue.

Then the only people who'd cheat the system would have to go into A&E and lie about being injured then run out before a doctor could see them... which would probably be a bigger crime.
