Possibly more chance of Boris as PM & Farage as Deputy PM

Let the propaganda war really heat up now.

Expect even more false news in the media.

May the team with the biggest Bank balance win.

Unfortunately a very small percentage of voters will even bother to look into the policies the competing sides are offering.

It's become the politics of personality.

Amidst all the Christmas gimmickerey, the last thing anyone wants is some w*nker canvassing your vote.

I'm looking forward to dangling some mistletoe before I stick the head in them.

It'll be my 1st night off work so I'll be flicking the TV on at some point and find out the result.

I'd probably be on here before that anyway so the results may have been talked about a little by then

Dunno.

Is Johnson making the same mistake as May and pissing the public off by asking us to fix their mess?

That said, Johnson does have charisma whereas May had none.

Do people want to be bombarded with more brexit bullshit for six weeks?

That's all anyone has heard about the last three years and the fatigue level must be high.

Labour will want to fight the election on domestic issues like the NHS, education etc.

Their message might work - ignore Brexit for now - we promise you will get a separate vote on that in 2020.

We are calling an ellection because the elected representatives cannot agree to complete what the general public decided they want done..

I know it’s not quite that simple, but thas what’s happening, laughing stock of Europe.

What has this cost the British nation ?

Now we are going back to the polls again, it’s a shambles to be honest!

Jess Phillips made an amazing speech in the House last night:

https://parliamentlive.tv/event/index/106ce07e-d81e-4637-8489-8571ccb96684?in=16:53:34

Talking about how a general election is the wrong thing to happen. Everyone is going to just be using it as a proxy for a referendum anyway, so we are being vague and dishonest by not just holding a referendum.

Also one key point she makes: what do we do when this election (as it likely will) comes back with a hung parliament? How do we interpret that in the “Rorschach test” of what the election will be?

So you didn’t bother to watch it before commenting? Figures.

Despite being in a leave area in the last election she was voted back in with *more* votes than before.

Some people will, for sure. But there is a gamut of other issues out there - from climate change to the NHS - for parties to tap into as well.

Yes because the tories and labour both said they would honour the referendum at the last election which now labour are clearly not.

Untrue.

Labour said it would vote for a Brexit plan that met six key tests.

The recipe cooked up by the Conservative Party doesn't meet any of them.

Indeed, there is a report out today that says the Johnson recipe will wipe £70bn from the economy - £1000 for every citizen.

Who the fuck wants to vote for that?

Where is the Brexit plan that Leave promised voters in 2016 would make us all better off?

A majority of MPs would approve that.

Where is it?

Today's report is published by the National Institute of Economic and Social Research.

It is the nearest thing to the economic impact assessment that Javid says is not in the public interest to publish.

I can see why.

She increased her majority in 2017, but I know there is a massive campaign to kick her out because of the row over the no outsiders policy in her constituency. So that’s one to watch on election night

Yeah agreed so emotional now, so emotional its like England thinking it’s going to win the World Cup every 4 years then being bitterly disappointed. They will wrangle for years over it because it’s such a goldmine of votes.

You cannot get voters emotional about much. But find something that will turn them into nutters who will advocate violence to get their way and keep them voting the way you want them for years. Classic.

You do not need to be an economist to see the risk of stagflation.

Fewer £s in the economy and rising prices.

The border paperwork is estimated to add between £9bn and £15bn to British costs annually.

Cue "fiscal stimulus" to get the economy moving.

The irony of how much the right say they detest fiscal stimulus (when Labour do it) won't be lost on anyone.
