I'm not promising to be the resident landlady, and I can't even hope to moderate the discussion or offer up great memes etc because I don't know how, but here's opening the next iteration....

First drink is on the house.

No Limer, that’s these! A halloween specialty in some parts!

LOL they really ARE shit-dipped-bat-biscuits!

Ewwww, labour cupcakes. Flavoured with the bitter tears of the masses toiling in the gulags.

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 26/11/2019 21:12

Now, I’m not saying there’s a correlation with the Corbyn cakes but... hell yeah actually I am...

Only on high days and holidays. The rest of the time, just bread and water. And even the bread will be rationed.

GreenishMe · 26/11/2019 21:16

Oh....the bat biscuit from cat tray! The penny's just dropped...duurh :)

Limer · 26/11/2019 21:20

Yes. But there's always jam tomorrow. Marrow jam.

Where are the momentum bots. It’s all gone dark.

Shhhh... don’t send out the ‘bat’ signal. 🦇

They are all on Twitter and Facebook fighting a rear guard action. Its vicious. Its almost like Corbyn is on life support after being nearly decapitated.

Andrew Neil, vampire slayer.

sunglasses123 · 26/11/2019 21:37

God, what a car crash. He kept ignoring the question or tried to virtue signal what he was doing. No wonder he keeps to his cult followers.

Andrew Neil gave him enough rope to hang himself. However Boris better watch out. Corbyn is one of those people who you meet in the corporate world and you honestly cannot imagine how they got to their senior position.

I worked for a women once who honestly was completely hopeless. She could barely write a email to a customer without help and hand holding. She meant well and I eventually found out she had slept with her old manager and he had given her the role.

Oh dear, Jezbollah is getting trashed by the media after the interview. 😬

darkcloudsandrainstorms · 26/11/2019 22:49

Can we run the country without clueless politicians.

darkcloudsandrainstorms · 26/11/2019 22:50

Could not the bbc have used one of their laughter tracks over it.

Mizzeldrizzle · 26/11/2019 23:20

🙏 For Boris indeed.

I hope he's being grilled and drilled and interrogated by the most vicious rottweiler team right now. So he will have figures, answers to hand, he will know all the accusations, and most likely questions. And it will be a breeze.

darkcloudsandrainstorms · 27/11/2019 00:08

They are all the same.

The80sweregreat · 27/11/2019 06:48

Boris will be fine. They have pledged not to raise taxes. He will say his own prejudices were free speech / taken out of context.
He will say ' get brexit done' a few times.
Their manifesto isn't promising a huge amount so there's not much to rake over. He might get grilled about the waspi women but he will argue this ' isn't the priority, no money for that' argument. Labour's plans for this compensation is vague as the money has to come from somewhere and I agree they should get something , but it has to be costed. I hope that Neil presses him about Brexit , but I doubt it.
Compared to last night it'll be a breeze for the PM I think. Plus he can get some advice first.

DustyDiamond · 27/11/2019 07:06

I suspect he'll be grilled on the disingenuous nature of some of the policy claims (which was a daft & avoidable own goal)

Like the 50 new hospitals or x thousand new nurses or NI threshold in line with income tax (can't remember exact numbers) - rather than just being honest & saying x amount of new hospitals with y amount of seed funding; x amount of new nurses with y amount of externally recruited & z amount of retained; ambition to raise to income tax threshold but x level immediately etc

Also he'll get hammered on his past comments (letterboxes etc), & possibly Jennifer Accuri. Possibly the NHS & waspi maybe if time

I think a main thrust will be 'how can we trust you' tbh

A Kantar poll was published today that showed the Tory lead falling from 18 points to 11, with Labour gaining 5 points since a week earlier.

An ICM poll yesterday put the Tory lead at just 7 points, the smallest from any pollster since the first week of November.

dirtyrottenscoundrel · 27/11/2019 07:19

I wouldn’t be surprised if Labour win this election. People are falling for all his promises, & on paper, my entire family would be much better off under Corbyn’s manifesto.
It’s just whether he’ll do everything he says?

Parker231 · 27/11/2019 07:48

I don’t agree with Labours manifesto but I hate the lying Boris is doing to try and con voters with false information on main issues such as police recruitment, new hospitals and nurses.

Enb76 · 27/11/2019 07:50

We’ve put hopefully Corbyn-proofed financial planning in place just in case. It’s not like we’re rich either rather asset rich, cash poor.

dirtyrottenscoundrel · 27/11/2019 08:07

I actually think labour getting in will change the country far more than us leaving the EU.

Maybe a labour government is what we need? Total change.

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 27/11/2019 08:12

“I wouldn’t be surprised if Labour win this election. People are falling for all his promises”

So much this, he’s like the pied fucking piper. I cannot believe people are buying into it. Boris and the Conservatives are not a great choice granted, but by christ, they will save the country from ruination. People think poverty is bad now? You ain’t seen nothing yet. Wait until soaring debt, hyper inflation, ruined pensions, mega taxes, massive job losses, fucked stock market etc... kick in. Not to mention, the absolute Fury that people will feel about having the referendum fucked over. Can’t wait to see capitalism fall? Well, you reap what you sow. Go on, vote for those antisemitic cranks, I can’t wait to come back to mumsnet on my state run broadband in 10 years time and see how it all went down. Although, I doubt we will be able to talk about it, as you can kiss good bye to being able to freely criticise the dear leader and his goons. The feminism board will be a joke too, it’ll ‘run by men, for men’. Of course, it could all just be over pretty quick, we might not make it to ten years. We will have been ousted from intelligence sharing, and possibly attacked by countries who would seek to abuse and take advantage our weakened defence systems. Fun times.

But yeah. Free Broadband and Magic Grandpa cupcakes for all.
