Which UK politician (past or present) do you feel the most visceral hatred towards right now?

[bibbitybobbityyhat]

Me: 1. David Cameron although of course it is a very close run thing with 2. Boris Johnson and 3. Nigel Farage - nuff said.

1. Jeremy Corbyn - but actually I can't bring myself to hate him all that much for not putting up a strong Labour campaign against Brexit because he never pretended he was a Remainer himself. He is and always has been pro-Brexit from a different angle. He probably shouldn't have been elected leader in the first place.

I've voted Labour in the GE for the entirety of my voting life (since 1983) but at this moment I don't actually feel any anger towards Theresa May - I rather grudgingly admire her. She knows her time as leader is short lived. I have yet to see anyone saying anything tangible about how they could have done it better!

Dh and I are both passionate, passionate Remainers. But we can't support a second vote - it will result in the most horrendous civil unrest! Anyone who thinks the 48% who voted to leave the EU will just quietly accept a different result from a second referendum is deluded.

And so I come back to most visceral hatred for a political figure just now = Cameron for putting us here. It sickens me to the pit of my stomach, thinking of him living his rarified, cosy, massively over-privileged Eton-educated life in Chipping fucking Norton, earning millions as a public speaker off the back of his very short time in politics, running away from the mess he created. What a complete and utter ARSE.

All of them.

Literally all.

With the notable exception of that young Scottish lass, Mhairi Black.

And it's not so much hatred as it is contempt. If it was pissing it down outside, and you asked them "Is it raining?" not a single one of our politicians would answer "Yes" in case it might lose them a couple of votes. Instead you'd get "There's a lot of space between the raindrops" or "There's more air than water" or "It'll be sunny soon, I promise". Fucking tossers.

Cameron, Corbin and Salmond

*corbyn ffs autocorrect

Don't make yourself look silly surferjet.

Dissatisfaction with the EU started at the very least in the early 1970s didn't you know?

Why is Blair to blame for Brexit above any other past or present political figure?

I'm no fan of Blair, just want reminding about how he set this ball rolling if you'd be kind enough to refresh my memory.

Thatcher.

Agree with OP 100%, could have written it myself

Cameron, definitely.

(I originally thought I hate nobody but once I read the OP, it was obvious)

Iain Duncan Smith (and Esther McVey). Morally bankrupt the pair of them. Wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire.

David Cameron.

Thatcher.

God, I go to write one and then find myself nodding along to other posts (McVey and IDS). But the architect for so much division in society goes back to Thatcher - in my lifetime, anyway.

David Cameron for starting this current farce and buggering off.
Jeremy Hunt for screwing over junior doctors (Dd1 is one so have seen it first hand)
Michael Gove for screwing over Education (I'm in Education)
Johnson and Rees-Mogg for being out of touch upper class pillocks who have no idea of real life.
Ian Duncan Smith for what he has done to the most vulnerable.
Not one of them have any moral integrity.

Not keen on Corbyn for that matter.

Definitely Cameron first, with Johnson and Farage a close second (I know Farage didn't have that much influence on his own but will never forget the childish 'who's laughing now' comments as an anti-Europe MEP when we were reeling from the result of the Referendum).

I can't hate Corbyn, he's well meaning but basically a puppet of the stronger voices around him.

The Blair / Brown government totally rejected their core voters by referring to them as ‘bigots’ if they raised even the slightest concern over immigration - remember the Gillian Duffy incident?
Do you know anything about Blair’s immigration legacy? it’s because of Blair’s immigration policies UKIP gained so much power - Cameron had no choice but to offer us a referendum because he needed to stop their popularity - he didn't think leave would win of course but there you go.
I’m surprised someone with a degree in politics is so politically unaware tbh.

David Cameron. I hope he goes down in history as the most cowardly PM we have ever had.

Esther McVey

No contest

Corbyn
Sturgeon
Salmon

Blair

Gordon Brown referred to that woman as a bigot (he was correct of course) and that's what triggered this vote about exiting in the EU?

Don't be daft!

David Cameron

a coward and a traitor. He should have to stand naked in every high street in the land and apologise for putting us through the last 2 years, the pigfucker

Jacob Rees-Mogg: he's preaching crashing out of the EU, which will cost many many ordinary people jobs and livelihoods (like, most of Cornwall), but has moved his millions of pounds of hedge funds to Dublin, so he can retain the finance advantages of the EU.

He's a traitor.

Jeremy Corbyn is just a coward. And an anti-Semite, who's betrayed us on Brexit.

I fear Britain is politically really rather vulnerable at the moment because so many of the established politicians are either revolting or incompetent, or both. It's quite dangerous for so many people to be so disillusioned with the so-called democratic process.
Personally, I think nobody will ever top Thatcher for sheer evil, but that Rees Mogg git comes close.

Why did DC give us a referendum then?
You tell me.

Agree with every single sentiment of your opening post bibbitybobbityhat although feel I need to add the unflushable turd that is Jeremy Hunt into the mix. I hold him responsible for the dismantling of the NHS and utter lack of morale.
They are all odious,

Thatcher and Cameron

This.

But I'm at the stage of just having no words. I can't even ...
