O/T - general election 2019

[Silly-miller]

Labour Rother Valley candidate is a 23 year old from Sheffield.

They really do think Rotherham folk will vote for anyone with a red rosette.

They will

I'm pretty certain many middle of the road tory voters are as uncomfortable with Johnson and Farage at the wheel as much as they probably are with Corbyn .

For traditional tory voters I'm very sceptical that Farage had added any value at all to the tory election campaign , it could be the complete opposite in fact .

Johnson to me looks as though he's in his own bubble with the despicable Rees Mogg blowing in his ear .

It seems in this election campaign so far both Johnson and Corbyn have removed themselves from their core voters .

I doubt there is one single person who can predict with any great accuracy the outcome of this particular election .

When push comes to shove and you are inside the polling station pencil in hand many are going to take a deep breath and I suspect many won't bother at all .

The truth is nobody is electable but that seems to be where we are .

A very poor state of affairs .

She was voted in from a shortlist of 4 by local party members.

Brexit Party Chairman said a couple of days ago on Radio 4 they are campaigning for a trade deal with no political ties and to support Johnson's Transition Deal.

There are no parties in this election campaigning for a clean break no deal.

Is there a link where we can see which candidates are standing?

None of whom were from the constituency.

Both Labour and the Tories keep parachuting people in, I think only local people should be allowed to stand personally.

But the info doesn't go on until 2 weeks before the election.

Conservatives won’t win the election animal.
Labour will gift it them all wrapped with a pink ribbon on it.
Sad thing is a lot of moderate Labour MP’s will lose their seats.
The moderate Labour haven’t yet worked out how to bring it back to centre and mainstream politics.
If Labour don’t hit 209 seats like Michael Foot did then Corbyn and McDonnell need to walk the next morning, take Abbott and Thornberry with them, although Emily is on dodgy ground and may lose her seat to the Libdems.

I think that quite a few moderates have already left the Labour Party Frank. That's the worrying thing - even if Labour were to suffer a resounding defeat (and I think it far from clear that they will) and a moderate like Starmer were elected as leader, the NEC is controlled by Corbynista class-warriors who will continue to push far left policies amd oppose any return to sanity.

The shortlist was imposed upon them, with no local candidates.
