And you are not when you talk about Corbyn then? Thats just silly, silly. How do you know Corbyn will kill this country off? Do you have a crystal ball?

Think the first couple likely to be declared tonneet ie Sunderland and Newcastle will give a good indication how lab will go on in the north in previously safe labour areas. If the Brexit party don't make much of an inroad into them lab could have a good night.

How do you define 'good night'? Do you have coming a decent second a good night, as so many Labour supporters seemed to in 2017, or are you still hoping to wake up in the morning to find that Diane Abbott is in charge of the security of the country and John McDonnell all ready to begin the process of ridding the country of the scourge of wealth?

If you were to light a firework and then stand over it looking down, would you need a crystal ball to know that a good outcome would be only losing your eyebrows, Roly?

I think a hung parliament would represent a good neet for Labour given the bias of the media.I know you will be going ouch with that one Kerr..but you know me, nobody will convince me that the left is not biased against it makes a lot of sense for the wealthy to protect their wealth by brainwashing the likes of silly and millerbill to vote tory.

Sounds much better than the "Austerity for the poor, tax cuts for the rich" lot, so typical of the Tory party over many, many decades.They do a ruthless job of making the rich richer at the expense of the poor.

[KerrAvon]

So coming second is a good result. After the best part of 10 years of the pain of austerity and with the Tories led by someone who has only a passing relationship with honesty...

Doesn't say much for Corbs, does it?

Do you think a hung parliament and yet more Brexit uncertainty would be a good outcome for the country

I think a hung parliament would be an excellent result for Labour.

[howdydoo]

That's just harsh. Why if you are a Tory would you have no conscience? Personally, this time around, I think it makes sense to vote against Corbyn, Swinson and Wee Jimmy Krankie. Corbyn politics are just never going to work. The other two are simply undemocratic in everything they say and do.

It's all broken.

Name me three good local causes that make a difference and help the real needy people in this town. Bet you can't.

Can you name 3 Roly?

[mikemiller]

Don't particularly want to stay in the EU, but don't want to see the country flogged off to the USA either. There are other possibilities... Corbyn policies have never been tried so how do you know they won't work? Thatcherism, Reaganomics, etc, was great for the rich, but everybody else suffered. "Borisonomics" will be the same, and even more grovelling to the USA.

[rolymiller]

You have ignored my comment about media bias of course they will find it hard to compete against brainwashing working class votes into voting tory. its a constant uphill battle and till there is some sort of regulation to stop em doing it it will continue.

I know, I know freedom of speech and all that but what about the freedom of speech of people with left wing opinions. Have they not the right to be heard equally?
