To be glad we are finally getting an election

[frankentall]

Rishi due to tell us at 5pm what the date is - smart money on 4th July perhaps pressaging his inevitable departure for the USA.

😳He chose the time and date and can afford an umbrella.

No one forced him to go out in the rain 🙄

This Government are the most corrupt, self serving and incompetent we've had and they make me ashamed to be British. Can't wait to see the back of them.

He should have used that giant briefing room they spent a fortune on

No, they're not. That's what 14 years of Tory incompetence has made people think.

I reckon Rishi wants the summer out of work off.

I guess he was trying to be helpful to the media & the public. Don't do it again, Rishi, waste of time. People these days don't seem to know how to behave.

£2.6 million they spent on that briefing room btw .. more waste

Poor Sunak. He was getting drenched, standing there, with music drowning him out…😂

Yup, and not just incompetence but greed. What they've done to this country borders on criminal. At least Labour put taxes back into the economy not just find ways to siphon it to their mates.

The one where they laughed about socially distanced parties, while people died and their loved ones said goodbye via facetime you mean? I do hope people remember all the absolute shit they've presided over when they enter the voting booths.

These Tories are on their way out and the Red Tories on the way in. Great news for everyone.

Will not be voting. All shit

I’m all supporting labour for many reasons but mostly because I’d like some integrity back in Downing Street. 14 years of lies and disgusting behaviour.

Great. Will be having a glass of wine in a minute.

The exit he deserved.

I can’t believe he’s called it so early, must just be fed up of politics! But I can’t wait to see the back of these privileged wankers

Someone in the Tory media team is obviously a Labour supporter after that. I mean who is advising him to go outside in the pissing rain when they know that people have been blaring music through speakers all afternoon

As much as I am happy it’s finally announced it’s annoying that it has pushed that liar Paula Vennells off the front page after day 1 of her testimony. Hope her next two days of lies gets more coverage

But that isn't the Labour we are getting.

Let the madness begin... don't get me wrong, can't wait for this lot to go, but can't help wondering what hypocrisies they'll be plastering on the busses this time.

Heaven preserve us from Starmer and Rayner. If you think things are bad now Labour will make it worse

Seems like some people on here were asleep between 1997 and 2010...

And no, it won't be like 1997 because this country has been left in a 1979 style state of shit - but at least there'll be a better direction of travel. It's going to take time, patience, common sense and hard work. These are not qualities the current crop of Tories possess and I hope they spend a solid two terms in the wilderness learning how to be a moderate, sensible, right of centre opposition.

It’s closer to that Labour than the current government.

Yes, mine too.

Lol
Nice try

Though I'll bite.
Why will it be worse?

Yes, I’ll admit to having some concerns over this. I’d be happier with Gordon Brown.
