To think desperate Tories are spamming Mumsnet

Every time I log on there’s another pathetic post taking a pot-shot at the Labour party!

Come now boys, your snouts have been in the trough for 14 years now, even you can’t deny you’ve scraped the barrel and run out of prime ministers.

We’ve been bled dry, time to drop off.

At least go with some dignity!

Dunno, but there’s plenty Labour shills to even it out if there is

Walkingtheplank · 19/04/2024 20:23

Not as many as the Labour bots.

Yanbu. Any woman who thinks Sunaks announcement today will be anything other than disastrous for women as a group needs their head examined.

doingthebesticanover40 · 19/04/2024 20:28

definitely! tonight I was just thinking the same and wanted to complain! I haven't seen labour posts in the same way - I would be interested to see the threads the previous posters were talking about.

Thebestwaytoscareatory · 19/04/2024 20:33

Yanbu at all. It's the fact that the same few posters change their usernames every couple of months but never change their posting style that makes me laugh.

I'm fairly sure that none other than David Davies is one of them given the way he spoke on QT is surprisingly close to one of the tory defence leagues more frequent posters.

Scattery · 19/04/2024 20:34

YANBU, I've noticed it too, and it's not landing too well amidst all this Mark Menzies stuff.

LlynTegid · 19/04/2024 20:35

Bad losers exist in many walks of life and those who still support the Tories are not the only ones. Though you cannot expect anyone who supported the Tories under Boris Johnson to have any sense of dignity.

meditrina · 19/04/2024 20:51

I think Labour is a pile of crap as well

And I don't think I'm alone in that. Yes, they'll win, but it's only because the Tories are beyond dire. Not because they're actually anything even approaching worthwhile

The nation is up shit creek, and there's no-one competent with a paddle

SuzetteDeFarcey · 19/04/2024 20:53

Ah but what is a woman?

mynameiscalypso · 19/04/2024 20:54

Can we have a pre-election section where all this shit goes?

DistinguishedSocialCommentatorsMum · 19/04/2024 20:54

YABU.
We all know that Keir Starmer dines on boiled kittens every night. The bastard.

Sunquest · 19/04/2024 20:55

But,but, but they know what a woman is.

Jason118 · 19/04/2024 20:56

No, he eats them raw, get with the program!

RafaistheKingofClay · 19/04/2024 21:00

If it’s the one about the stupid meme that is fair game to take a shot at. It’s bloody awful and misguided.

Otherwise they are getting a bit desperate. Fortunately it’s making absolutely no difference to their polling.

HappyEater · 19/04/2024 21:01

Seriously though, surely no one actually thinks that someone might change their voting intention based on mumsnet posts? Especially hectoring ones telling you how wrong you are to vote a particular way.

Also - many people say one thing in public and vote differently in private.

Redlarge · 19/04/2024 21:04

Ha ha yes
Most here are rich tories anyway so i take it with a pinch of salt.

Sunquest · 19/04/2024 21:06

The Tories are finished but a lot on here will single issue vote because the reality of the COL and child poverty doesn't affect them.

Supersoakers · 19/04/2024 21:08

They’re all dying on hills all over the place

Lonelycrab · 19/04/2024 21:10

Well the number one desperate Tory has gone a little quiet these days so perhaps not…

Quite!

SlowerMovingVehicle · 06/06/2024 20:10

I am not a bot, a tory, a shill or anything and I hate and detest the "Labour" party and its slimy weak-minded leader and want to see positive statements about why people are voting for them but can't find any. So I think YABU.

Redlarge · 06/06/2024 20:44

Absolutely they are

MaryMaryVeryContrary · 06/06/2024 20:46

Some people seem genuinely baffled that anyone isn’t ultra left wing. So much so that they must be robots! Which is weird because there were more Tory voters than Labour last election 🤔 unless you think the election was rigged?

Me too 😭 I’m a centrist who is very disappointed about both our ‘options’ and will complain about them both as much as I like.

tennesseewhiskey1 · 06/06/2024 20:47

There’s loads of Labour shit too. Be fair now….
