Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said the snap poll was a "once-in-a-generation" opportunity to transform the country.
Weren't similar quotes attributed to the Scottish Independence Referendum and Brexit? :hmmm:

Bang on cue, I should have expected these.

Two emails one after the other or perhaps they'd be better described as begging mails.

Here's the first split screen capture (too large for just the one), I'll post the other after I've been and checked the boys house.

Which MPs are standing down at the election?

I was quite surprised at some of those on the list.

Heard on the radio today where some expert on British politics said something with

If Boris and the Tories win we can expect UK have left EU by 1 January 2020.

If the others, he mentioned the Lib and I was thinking Corbyn..win the election it is most likely UK will remain a EU member.

I therefore change my advise

If you are for leaving EU-then put your vote on B.J. (Yes you may not like him..but ask yourself what's most important leave EU and have Boris as PM for the next couple of years or Stay in EU with Steptoe as PM)

Just found this on it. I plan to get the first book later on. Its pleasant to read not due to what he says, but how he says it. Shows style and class.

As the old saying goes, one load of useless bastards out and another load of useless bastards in. :yep:


I now sit back and wait for the lies to roll in as these useless lot lie and lie again to get your vote.

I WILL NOT VOTE FOR LIARS.

Watching SKY News this morning and they were talking to a former labour adviser who said if you read labour's manifesto in full you would be alarmed at their spending plans that he put it would bankrupt the country again. This was not coming from a Tory care to note.

That is generally the case, tax the rich and give it to the poor. Next thing you see is a drop in investment and company expansion which eventually leads to job losses and a hefty bill for the welfare state to pick up with an ever decreasing tax income.

There will always be rich and poor in the country and anyone investing obviously want to see a resulting profit....surely.

Last Orderrrrs! Speaker John Bercow's career in numbers.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-50237401
Not only does Mr Bercow speak more than previous Commons Speakers, his choice of words often stands out.

One MP, quoted by the New York Times, said: "It's as if he goes to bed every night, reads a thesaurus, inwardly digests it and then spews it out the next day." :har:

The article sums him up quite well.

Just been watching the nameless one and my BS detector broke. And this is day 1. :o
