Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

Good summation of Labour’s betrayal of working class voters and most of its former socialist principles from Brendan O’Neill.

And if you think it’s written by a Tory, you couldn’t be more wrong.

Oh, and the Unlib Dummicrats’ claim about a magic £50B EU ‘bonus’ may have just gone ‘pop’.

In all honesty Exile, the 50B only existed in Swinsons Unicorn infested sunny uplands of SwiFantasialand! Absolutely no basis in fact whichever way you juggle the numbers, pretty much like their vote result summations.

There are a lot of pricey promises in their manifesto....with no indications as how they would be funded.
Yes there are some airy fairy plans to tax frequent international flyers....but no actual figures.
They want to revoke article 50....so not so democratic to the 17.4 million voters who want to leave.

It is all fairy floss...with little substance.

Oh I don't know Ma, she'll probably borrow labours money orchard to harvest the required monies & it'll all be explained on how to get the best returns by that master of mathematics, the Abbottpotamous.


What could possibly go wrong???

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

They KNOW that they do not need to worry about HOW they will fund these promises because they have not a hope in hell of being the party in power.
The only hope they have is to be part of a coalition....never good news either for the party or for the electorate.

I am hoping that there is a decisive majority for a party(preferably not the one that JC is the leader of...if that happens we are well and truly stuffed).

I do not trust the polls being trumpeted by the media.
It is similar to the 2017 election and that did not end well.

I have been telephone canvassed tonight and I did not give the canvasser any indication to how I will vote.

I know how I will vote, but they do not need to know.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

Funny Plymouth Uni has entered a load of students on the electoral roll and not informed them, no mention at all on main national news today about this FRAUD, i ask who is actually voting with these? this sort of thing happened LAST Election seemed to me to have been swept under the carpet then. i certainly cannot remember any court cases of people who voted twice then can anyone?

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!

Just spotted that Cashy....along with a report that the Labour Party will (in the manifesto) remove the council tax discount for those who live alone.
This will penalise mainly elderly widows and widowers.

It is seen as a move to get those living alone to move out of their property and free it up for a family.
They do not consider that the people who will be affected have spent their whole lives contributing to society.

They want us to live in caves....keep chickens and pigs and ride bikes(they plan to increase punitively the road tax for private vehicles).

you should know what the labour party banner as always been. Do as i say and not as i do. if all those really enjoy high taxes, especially the stealth ones, then i would advise them to vote labour in there thousands as i,m sure they will in both our areas. just cannot wait till i pay more tax on my pension, increase in council tax for more vanity projects and another 15p a litre on fuel for us climate change deniers.

The Canadian "left" really is something else...



Don't the "anti-fascists" see any irony in their behaviour ?
