Westminstenders: From Uxbridge to...? Part deux GE 2019 special.

[placemats]

New thread.

General election 12th December 2019. Results out on Friday 13th. Unlucky day for some.

So this election is unusual in that it will focus primarily on Brexit and referendums with domestic issues tagged alongside, for some parties.

So some Tories claim Corbyn will shoot the wealthy
and BJ claims he will set up Stalinist concentration camps

This is so extreme that they can only be panicking for some reason

Are they expecting more scandals, maybe more relevations about Russian influence on the Tories ?
What could be worse than ½ million Russian funding the last year ?

The next Tory parliamentary party will be much more rightwing and much less experienced and much more grateful to Cummings, same on the left to Milne.....

Tories are lurching to the right
Labour are lurching to the left
Jo Swinson thinks she is Napoleon
and the Brexit Party have not announced any candidates yet
what could possibly go wrong?

Labour are lurching to the left

Hyperbole much? Theyre really not

I'm just hoping HMQ has had her flu jab ....

A Brexit Gorgon created by the Tory party

Why politicians won't talk about Brexit this GE as much as one might expect ....

https://amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/nov/05/brexit-election-british-politics?

With a sustained display of incompetence, cowardice, delusion and ideological mania,
British politics has created a situation so monstrous and writhing with venom that the public cannot bear to look at it.

Brexit is like the mythical Gorgon that turns to stone all who meet its gaze
It must instead be stalked indirectly, using the monster’s reflection in their polished shield.

That is why the election will be only obliquely about Brexit.

Wokingham was the safest Tory seat in the country once.

Oh, that would be an excellent scalp, removing Deadwood from Parliament

The next Tory parliamentary party will be much more rightwing and much less experienced

It will be interesting to see Brexit negotiated by a bunch of people who have never been MPs before.

Much tho she irritates me I agree with Swinson on the goal of public childcare. Not sure which magic money tree she’s going to shake for that though.

Much more sensible aim than nationalising secondary education.

Secondary education is already nationalised. Always was.

Can I ask who are considered to be the moderate labour MP’s who may stand down.

I don't think Lee has left Bracknell high and dry - I think they chose to strand themselves. However, I think it would be a tall order for him to unseat Deadwood, even though it was a strong Remain constituency.

?

CON: 42% (-15)
LDEM: 38% (+22)
LAB: 12% (-13)
BREX: 5% (+5)
GRN: 3% (+1)

Very interesting poll... these things could readily build momentum. I’d imagine even those diehard Corbynites who help make up Labour’s 12% would be sorely tempted to lend their votes to the LDs once they see that poll!

That poll is for Wokingham, Redwood's seat, in case people get too excited

He does look at risk from Philip Lee, now a LDem
