To be furious with the Joke Party?

Jonathan Gullis a party chair.

The ridiculous, lying, AI generated videos with the American B movie voiceover.

Blaming the sick and disabled for the state of the economy.

Meanwhile, children are going to school hungry, in dirty clothes and tired as they are living in conditions that don't enable proper sleep. The NHS is crumbling.

The Tory government is no longer a functioning government. It is a corpse, shambling towards its final demise.

AIBU to be furious and sickened and to wonder how on earth anyone could now bring themselves to vote Tory?

I have wandered over to FWR. I am apparantly a MRA enabler, a useful idiot and a man. They sure know how to recruit people to their cause over there.

Being callled a man seems to be the favourite insult.

Still interested who those wolves are @domineastronomy

They know what a woman is though.

Thet do. A combination slave and mattress. Wonderful.

Why are transphobes all so determined to sink the entire bloody country AND all women with it just to get back at a tiny, tiny minority?

I know why, jswc. Prejudice and fear

@domineastronomy if you have the time I would be fasincated to learn how the LibDems would be worse in your view that the Tories.

Nah, us Everton fans are better than that

Anyway who are the wolves, not the football kind mind you.

A yougov poll on 19thMarch found that 48% felt that KS was doing a bad job as a leader.
Obviously the usual suspects of JC, McDonnell would be there in a flash.

I was write. But Jeremy Corbyn is the wolf pack leader who ate the unicorns.

What I don't understand is why Tories are still scared of him, he isn't even a Labour party member.

advanced search was helpful.

54% of Labour voters think he is doing a good job in that poll

domineastronomy · 27/03/2024 23:13

@DuncinToffee 35% thought he was doing well.

domineastronomy · 27/03/2024 23:16

@AdamRyan Aah ok- a Nicola Sturgeon type of feminist?
Anyway this post has been derailed so back to the subject.
Idiot Owen Jones is also going to stir up trouble for Starmer.

35% of All adults, I said Labour voters. You can specify by politics

Interestingly more Tory voters think Starmer is doing well, than voters think Sunak is.

Does really matter what the % is for Starmer when he is so far ahead the opposition isn't even in the rear view mirror.

domineastronomy · 27/03/2024 23:20

@DuncinToffee
My apologies- you did say Labour voters.
58% isn't great for a prospective PM though.
Probably higher than Sunak to be fair.

AdamRyan · 27/03/2024 23:22

How is Owen Jones relevant to a thread about who is voting conservative? Confused

Why are you voting Conservative domine?

IClaudine · 27/03/2024 23:23

Starmer is the most popular politician amongst all voters. 2nd place goes to Farage. 3rd to Corbyn. Sunak is beaten into fifth place by Johnson.

Although to be fair none of them are liked very much!

Bollocks do they. Another desperate attempt to mop up a few undecided votes (you’re obviously being tongue in cheek, I know).

LadyWhineglass · 28/03/2024 00:00

Jonathan Seagullis has flown over many posters’ heads there.

BronwenTheBrave · 28/03/2024 00:30

What about Jeremy Corbyn though?

Sunak's 5 pledges turned out to be quite the joke

According to the latest official stats:

- UK economy is now smaller than when Sunak took over
- Debt at highest levels since the 1960s
- NHS waiting times still at near record highs
- Small boat crossings hit new record in first three months of 2024

He is the MP for Islington North and standing again as an independent candidate

Isn't the official line that they weren't "pledges" ? (Mysteriously at the same time as not-in-power Starmer gets held to every cough he's made).

DuncinToffee · 28/03/2024 08:35

They changed from pledges to promises (or maybe the other way round) and are now The Plan?

edited to say, it could have been Priorities

Something with the letter P
