To think Boris would win a general election

[HoneyIgrewthekids]

Well that really, Im a big remainer but I cant help but feel that at an election Bojo would win and win big. Its depressing and I cant see how anyone could vote for him but I see him winning a majority at the polls especially since the remain vote is split.

Aibu

If he can pull the wool over peoples eyes and get in quick then he might. If he has to be PM for much longer, then going by how crap he's been so far, then maybe not. Even his brother's deserted him!
I think the mask slipped the other day in the house of commons. Not quite the nice cuddly buffoon he likes to make out.

I think he’ll win. Either a tiny majority or a hung parliament.

I so wish Corbyn would wake up and smell the coffee - a decent Labour leader would have avoided so much of this shit storm

He is showing his true colours as an over entitled bully. In general bullies are disliked and it will turn people off. Likewise Rees-Mogg's arrogance. We can only hope.

I actually think he might flunk it (hopefully). My area is true blue but we have one of the 21 rebels. If that MP is replaced by a hard line Brexiteer I think it might go Lib Dem. I haven’t heard anyone say a good word about Boris.

Yes I think he'll win big, especially if he does a deal with Nigel Farage.
People will see voting for him as a way of "punishing" MPs for the delaying tactics of the past 3 years.

Those calling the opposition a shitshow, why? Anything you have observed directly or have you been reading the papers?

If he does a deal with Nigel Farage he has a good chance. That is not what I want to see at all.

Tories have a third of the popular vote which in our fucked up non-democratic system is more than enough for a pretty solid majority in the house of commons.

I don't understand why the 67% don't get together and demand their vote actually count for something....

Of course he will particularly if he teams up with the Brexit Party which he no doubt will. No doubt this will outrage the MN bubble that people live in

The "shit show of an opposition" is currently succeeding in stopping a no deal scenario. At PMQ they handed Johnson's arse to him on a plate. Unless you're a Brexiteer (and I accept many people are), what are you complaining about?

I agree with PP about a Farage/ Johnson coalition. This is what they're aiming for. I keep seeing the "drain the swamp" phrase, and in this context it's getting rid of any moderates in the party so they can lurch even further to the right. It's a scary thought.

Why do you think Labour is so desperate to block an election, having spent two years whining about how much they want one?

Because they know that BJ is a liar who will immediately repeal yesterday’s vote preventing No Deal. It’s not difficult.

I think any half decent Labour Leader would have won last time after years and years of austerity. The fact is Corbyn has such Marxist policies such as not allowing people to leave money over £125k to children. McDonell is even worse with his stealing second homes from people to make them sell at less than market value if they rent them out yet keeping his own second home exclusively for himself. There is talk of him bringing in a garden tax too. Businesses do not trust Labour because they have plans to re-nationalise everything from trains, post, to utilities and plans to force share holders to sell at under market values. If only there were a moderate Labour leader they would have seized power from May in 2016. Yvette Cooper lives in a constituency that voted 70% leave yet does all she can to wind them up by opposing every leave vote, with or without a deal.

Parliament gave the people a vote and then won't agree to deliver it. Lib Dems. want to revoke and Labour will only agree to a deal that keeps us in Single Market, in Customs Union and CFP and paying into EU coffers, so not really leave at all.

I will vote for Boris who seems to be putting a stop to austerity and at least trying to respect democratic vote.

I would be amazed if Labour could take seats in East and West Midlands where vote Leave was very high.

I would think there would be a lot of pacts between parties and tactical voting going on.

50% of the population have a lower-than-average IQ and at least 30% of us appear to be self-serving, vicious twats.

When the two combine it becomes an unstoppable force.

Well hopefully it might be a lib deb, snp, labour coalition

But who am I kidding. It’s going to be that fucktard all the way

I reckon it will be a hung partliment

But he can’t even keep his own people so I’m not sure he will be able to make up a majority government

caringcarer love the ironic nickname btw

Because they know that BJ is a liar who will immediately repeal yesterday’s vote preventing No Deal. It’s not difficult

I agree

He’d be an idiot not to do a deal with Farage.

He’d be an idiot

Goes without saying

Sadly, you might be right. He has a good chance of winning leave voters back from the Brexit party and there isn’t a strong remain party for the rest of us.

50% of the population have a lower-than-average IQ and at least 30% of us appear to be self-serving, vicious twats.

That’s not true - only 25% say they’re voting Labour.

If Labour got rid of Corbyn they would do much better. It's Corbyn who is putting a lot of people off voting Labour.

Yes, but his party aren't the rabble he's playing to/with and who'll be voting for the posh twat.

He'll walk it. Partly because the right holds it's nose and makes alliances with the worst people in the world (DUP last time, but this time Brexit Party) because they don't care as long as they get power. The left is the Judean People's Front.

It’s too late for Corbyn to try and win any credibility at this point. He needs to put country above party and step down. Labour need a new leader.
