May's main issue was a lack of confidence. I don't agree with her politics but what did for her was her lack of firmness, assertiveness.
@Onlinedilema it's not just this Tory govt that was wasteful/financially corrupt. It's been shown that the last one was too, this is par for the course. Albeit much worse and more blatant with this lot. The myth that Labour plunders the gold and the torys bring it back in has been roundly debunked.
Those in my circle who voted for brexit and were vocal about it at that time are now VERY quiet whenever the subject arises.
I've still yet to see one single positive of Brexit shown/described by anyone, despite many threads on here, posts on sm, questions of pro Brexit people on news and current affairs shows. Not one thing that's happened thats positive.
I'm housebound through ill health and dependent on online grocery deliveries, I've noticed in recent weeks I am really struggling to get fresh items with any reliability. Supermarkets when asked are saying Brexit!
The last few elections have been a nightmare for the lack of decent candidates. I've voted all my adult life, the last election here I could not in good conscience vote for any of the candidates.
They've all disappeared down the twaw rabbit hole, Lib Dem's had shockingly horrible policies and an awful leader, snp were sniping at each other, Labour Scotland were being shitty to women generally and I will never vote Tory.
Where the fuck are the decent, common sense, working class candidates?!
I honestly think he could commit mass murder at this point and people would still vote for him.
Many would argue he already has!
@Jayne35 not all restrictions have economic impact. Or needn't. At the very least maintaining mask wearing is not difficult.
I'm sure he IS doing the best he can, the problem is he's a fucking useless numpty!
@Marguerite2000 I feel very similar re Labour Party. It's very much lost its way and forgotten its working class roots.
@Blossomtoes there were other issues with Blair. I stopped voting Labour at that point. Didn't vote Labour again until Blair was gone. Brown was better but still not ideal as a Labour leader, but I don't think he deserved the rap for a global financial crisis which he managed better than many. Can you imagine Johnson dealing with that? We'd end up in a 30's style depression!
