"But, but ... Gordon Brown bankrupted the country ... and Jeremy Corbyn would have been much worse. " And Sadiq Khan is making a terrible job of being Mayor. Then there was Diane Abbott's car crash interviews and the Anit Semitic scandals in the party. I didn't vote Tory but I couldn't justify voting Labour either. So I just wrote "None of the Below" on the voting slip. | |||

"... and theres definitely plenty of you about, so let me ask this; At what point do you look at this government & its almost perpetual state of failure & think to yourself that voting for Boris et al may have been a bad idea?" When it comes to voting you look at the choices in front of you and decide who you think would be better. With an 80 seat Conservative majority and Labours worst result since the 1930's it would appear a lot of people just didn't want what Labour had to offer. | |||

People wanted a party that prorogued parliament illegally, a pm who lied to the queen, a party that would top the table of Covid deaths, a gvt that keeps making u turns, a gvt that grants contracts without tender, a pm who is the mouthpiece of an unelected democrat and a gvt that talks up the U.K. all the time but who fails in every world beating thing they attempt. Life’s great with this conservative gvt. | |||

Apart from the increasing numbers driven to use food banks. And apart from the increased number who have ended up homeless. And, lest we forget, apart from the tens of thousands who ended up dead from covid. And apart from pretty much everybody, actually. According to the Institute for Fiscal Studies in 2020: "The COVID-19 crisis hit at a time when income growth had already been extremely disappointing for some years. Median (middle) household income was essentially the same in 2018-19 (the latest data) as in 2015-16. This stalling itself came after only a short-lived recovery from the Great Recession. The combined effect had been a decade of unprecedented poor improvements in living standards, with average income before housing costs having grown less than over any other 10-year period since records began in 1961." | |||

Otherwise every other country seems to be more organised, have a clearer plan, have less corruption, have less infections and deaths. By what measures would you suggest that the Conservatives have excelled in their handling of the situation? | |||

"Ah good old fashioned two party politics. Don't like what one party offers so the other gets a majority. Tbh, I don’t like what the Tory party stands for but they used to have MPs with honesty and integrity, the current government are the most incompetent bunch of lying grifters I have ever seen. " I agree 100%. But I am not going to just point at the Torys here. I think the standard of political debate/engagement/leadership has diminished across the board. Politics has become a career, with a conveyor of people working as researchers etc. then working through the system to become candidates, being parachuted into constituencies for which they have no feel. They seem to be out for themselves and do not truly work for the people they are representing. As I said this is on all sides. Labour used to recruit from the Unions, people that had life and work experience in the regions. The Torys used to recruit from different groups! But there was a feeling that they had experience of where they lived and the people there. All of the above seems to be missing in today's parties. It's only campaigning parties like the Greens and UKIP (as much as I am not a fan) that seem to maintain that local connection... Our democracy needs a huge overhaul, our voting mechanism, the House of Lords, etc. etc. | |||

"... and theres definitely plenty of you about, so let me ask this; At what point do you look at this government & its almost perpetual state of failure & think to yourself that voting for Boris et al may have been a bad idea?" However most people judge a government on its successes and not on a few mistakes . Ironically those who criticise the government can never provide any evidence that they themselves could have done any better ( they may ever have made things a lot worse ). The views that matter are probsbly that of the silent minority , not those who constantly choose to criticise the current governments performance in very difficult circumstances. Last Decembers election was a reality check for many. The great news is that when it comes to voting , everyone is treated equally. The actual result is self explanatory. | |||

"Have always voted Tory until Boris became leader. What's worse about Boris than May, or Cameron? I sort of respect May and Cameron but don't respect Boris (or Corbyn) at all. Why? My subjective opinion that Boris (or Corbyn) are poor leaders and not good for me personally or the country generally.. I agree on boris. So you think Corbyn would have been a good leader!? Not really A think he was a decent man of integrity and principles and was utterly savaged. I dont think he had a ruthless streak though, so no probally not. I always thought the plan was to drag labour back to its roots and then bring in a younger leader.

The ones where you pick your favourite policy on each issue without seeing which parties policy it is. The Tories always always come out near the bottom. The Greens always win by a mile. Your comment on powercuts in the 70s just reinforces how powerful the misinformation campaign is. I'm open to other reasons why people vote the way they do. But policy is clearly not one of the main reasons. | |||

"Have always voted Tory until Boris became leader. What's worse about Boris than May, or Cameron? I sort of respect May and Cameron but don't respect Boris (or Corbyn) at all. Why? My subjective opinion that Boris (or Corbyn) are poor leaders and not good for me personally or the country generally.. I agree on boris. So you think Corbyn would have been a good leader!? Not really A think he was a decent man of integrity and principles and was utterly savaged. I dont think he had a ruthless streak though, so no probally not. I always thought the plan was to drag labour back to its roots and then bring in a younger leader. In my opinion, for Labour to take advantage of the Boris shambles at the next election they should NOT go back to its roots....they should move towards the Centre. That is where the votes are to be won. To what end? A centrist Labour might have more chance of winning an election. And obviously they'd be less shit and self servicing than what we have now. But they wouldn't bring about any meaningful change. That's exactly what the majority of the people want. How would you categorise the last 20 odd years? In voting terms the public have never voted in a left wing radical government. The public have never voted in Screaming Lord Sutch either. The simple fact that you need to understand is the public did not either of those two options. I agree. And I find it an interesting phenomenon. The electorate consistently vote for a party who is openly self serving and holds ordinary people in utter contempt. And anyone who offers any kind of change is destroyed in the media. If you continue to think it's all the media's fault and not the policies being offered, you just not accepting why they keep losing. Maybe people don't want to roll back the clock to mass strikes and power cuts like in the 70's. If you're talking policy. The blind tests that are out there. The ones where you pick your favourite policy on each issue without seeing which parties policy it is. The Tories always always come out near the bottom. The Greens always win by a mile. Your comment on powercuts in the 70s just reinforces how powerful the misinformation campaign is. I'm open to other reasons why people vote the way they do. But policy is clearly not one of the main reasons." so if policy is not affecting votes and as some say the press are anti Labour how will Labour win power? Until they do win power they cannot implement any policy | |||

Regardless of the name of the party to bring it. | |||

"... and theres definitely plenty of you about, so let me ask this; At what point do you look at this government & its almost perpetual state of failure & think to yourself that voting for Boris et al may have been a bad idea?" The alternative would have been the rabidly left wing labour party and their proposal to take us back to 1970s politics and nationalise everything. I don't care how bad the Tories look Starmer et al would arse the country double quick. | |||

As such, they're the ones who are fucking things up for us all." When you say fucking up things what specifically are you referring to?

Was not in humans prior to the last election. So this isn't relevant to the question that was asked. Using "egg heads" as an insult for scientists says more about you than it does anyone else. Why is it a bad thing to understand science? | |||

"People really do have a selective memory dont they? Labour are always associated with the winter of discontent yet people seem to forget English cities being set ablaze, rampant unemployment and a country divided by 2 under thatcher in the 80s. The relative boom time under labour in the late 90 is also conveniently forgotten." agree with the 90s but wasn’t it just London and Liverpool set ablaze can’t remember anymore may be wrong ? | |||

"Tories aren't as bad as I thought. They're making independence for Scotland more and more likely with every passing day. That latest poll showing 58% 'Yes' is nothing to do with any campaigning by the SNP; because, since March, there hasn't been any. So, Boris, keep doing what you're doing. Who knows, maybe, given enough of you and your kind's bullshit, the people of the North of England will come back to their senses too? 'Once in generation referendum' as said by the leader of the SNP was in 2014." Ah, the 'once in a generation' argument. From someone with no dog in the hunt, no less. I can't help but wonder why you don't think the Scots should be allowed to change their minds - break their word, even - when the UK is currently governed by a liar and a hypocrite who is content to break international law, just to please Brexit voters? | |||

"The last election result proved that the winning party took into account everyone's views." No it didn't. The Tories only got 43.6% of the popular vote. Which means 56.4% of the electorate disagreed with their policies and did not assent to being governed by them. If you lived in an actual, representative democracy - like Germany or New Zealand - the Tories would not be in power right now. | |||
