To be dreading the morning after the election?

[ohhhhlivia]

When they announce a Tory majority with Johnson at the helm?

Then it's all down hill. Every time I've know a Tory government get it, living standards have dropped where I live. Every time.

Have a genuine feeling of foreboding.

Anyone else?

Had you noticed it’s going to be Friday 13th?!

Apt.

It's going to be horrible.

I feel exactly the same, amazing though that so many people will vote that way. Slightly sad too really.

I can't see any other outcome either. Can't quite comprehend how many people how there want this country to be so fucked but there we are.

Because there is no alternative. Majority of people will not vote for a far left party. We are not a socialist country. If Labour were more central then they would walk it.

Yeah me. As I’ve alluded to many times on these threads. The Tories are idolised by the British Public and Yes they will get back in. I’m in not going to give you false hope.
So We’ll wake up to the news on Friday 13 that these muppets are still in Power. I bet you £1.

Whoever wins, someone will feel like that.

If no one wins (hung parlt) then everyone will feel like that.

All in all, it's a shitshow with the only real winners being the JRM's of this world who have managed to put their vast wealth offshore for safety and who can make money on the £ in the meantime.

I'm past caring. Don't give a shit anymore.

Yep I feel exactly the same. I know I won’t be able to resist staying up all night watching the coverage and then it will be just like the morning after the referendum, and after the 2017 election, only worse because people are still voting for things to get worse.

Yup. YANBU.
I'm in a safe Tory seat and fed up of feeling my vote doesn't count but there we go.

How can anybody feel this bad about a Labour? Oh you might pay a bit more tax...

Yeah, I agree. I also agree with If Labour were more central then they would walk it.

As it is, we'll have turkeys voting for Christmas and another 5 years of Tory.

Yanbu it's gonna be a huge bag of wank.

I’m really depressed about the direction this country is heading in. I don’t want the UK to be weaker, especially when it comes to doing trade deals with the superpowers. I dread the proposed deal with the US - I don’t envy Americans their healthcare system, food safety standards, environmental protection laws or employment rights and I don’t trust the Tories or the Brexit Party to do right by us.

I was thinking today about how much I’d love to emigrate with DD and start afresh, but my DM gets tearful at the very suggestion, and DD would miss out on a lot of time with her extended family.

I'm due my twins around that time. I swear i'm gonna go into labour 12th, not get to vote and then deliver my babies into a world rules by King Boris I

Mama is sorry babies

I am furious with the Labour party. This shit show shambles and yet the "main" opposition party doesnt stand a chance. Why have they insisted on sticking with an unelectable leader?

It’s my birthday on the 13th Dec and I am already gutted as I just know it’s going to be ruined tbh! DH and I are into our politics but I don’t even want to stay up for the results this time because it will be a grim way to start my birthday.

If my birthday was on election day that wouldn’t have been as weird as it’s mostly just speculation throughout the day isn’t it, with perhaps just the exit polls to depress me in the evening but I’d be drunk by then anyway

We’ll have turkeys voting for Christmas

This This This. With giant 🔔a on.

I live in a very working class area, generally hard working but not particularly affluent at all and below average levels of education. The local forums are full of Boris worship and I just dont understand it. How they think Johnson and his colleagues give a flying fuck about people like us I dont know.

I’m dreading the crowing that it’s a ‘clear mandate for Boris’ Brexit’ when in reality I think a lot of people will vote Tory out of sheer weariness (and lack of perceived viable alternatives). Super depressing is the fact that the lesson will basically be ‘act deplorably and create a toxic and dangerous political environment and you’ll get your way in the end.’

All you lot moaning about Conservatives 'winning' and doing well. You've got Corbyn to blame for that.

He has single handedly WRECKED the Labour party, and no-one I KNOW will be voting Labour with this clown at the helm.

Multiple millions of life-long Labour supporters have jumped ship and turned to Ukip, Conservatives, and The Brexit Party.

I hope the people who sing Corbyn's praises are happy. Because of HIM, the fucking TORIES will be in for another 5 years!!!

Why have they insisted on sticking with an unelectable leader?

I'm so cross with this shower. Bloody Momentum. How can you be in opposition during this fucking mess and not lead in the polls?

I had a miscarriage on the day of the last election and I still think I might feel even shittier on the day of this one. I think it's going to be a disaster. I really hope I'm wrong.

I honestly don't know who to vote for.
I would not vote to put Jeremy Corbyn into power.
I can't bear Boris.
Nothing else is worth voting for because they won't get in.

Sorry, but waking up to a labour government with Jeremy Corbyn is eveyr bot at bad as waking up to another conservative government

I'm dreading it too ; my only hope is another hung Parliament and seeing some of the smirk taken away from the Tories; maybe Corbyn will take the hint and finally stand aside and someone with a bit more vision with centre left policies take over. Someone electable,
They might do deals that fall apart , or we may end up in the same situation we are now. Brexit will hangover to the new year and still be rumbling on by Easter.
It's so depressing and I predict a low turnout too. Corbyn will never be PM and that's the saddest thing of all ; labour are as they were in the 1980s
