Looks like Labour will be in. I’m dreading what they will do for women’s rights.

Yes because the Tories have been fucking amazing at protecting women’s rights 🙄

I still think that it might be a hung Parliament or closer than people think it might be
Never ever underestimate the conservatives
They are good at elections and it's a long way to go yet.

Agreed. I highly recommend last weeks TRIP podcast with David Gauke, they talked openly about Tories being good at winning elections and Labour being bad at it.

Well let's hope the Tories stay in and cause the deaths of a few more disabled and elderly people, properly decimate all public services and cause more homelessness eh?! Phew

The 4th July? Oh bugger. A group I'm a member of has organised an event on that day, booked the hall and everything. The hall would be used as a polling station.

Wow, it only took 10 replies for the first "but ToRiEs KnOw WhAt A wOmAn Is" derail attempt to appear. That must be a new record?

But seriously I hope this is true, the sooner its called the sooner we can get the tories out.

the80sweregreat · 22/05/2024 17:06

Labour are bad at elections and the conservatives play dirty.
Do not think this is a given !
They have more money to throw at it

Fulshaw · 22/05/2024 17:06

Is he calling it now because his ‘five priorities’ are being met? No idea if they are but might explain his reasoning.

TheSandHurtsMyFeelings · 22/05/2024 17:07

Oh goodie. Can't wait for weeks of cut-and-paste whataboutery from certain Tory bots on here...

ChitChatKittyKat · 22/05/2024 17:07

A new meaning for Independence Day 🙂

I guess they know that utility bills, etc. are going to rise a bit in the winter so the summer is going to be the cheapest time for people all year. It's not going to make any difference. Everyone I know is struggling with the price of mortgages, rents, food, petrol and bills. Although I grew up poor I've never known such a time as this for the average person feeling that a decent standard of living is beyond them. People feel miserable.

Is that what happened? Or did someone just post a thought on what the state of women's rights might be under a Labour government? 🙄

That also doesn't mean anyone thinks the Tories are good for women when thinking they'd be equally shite under Labour. People cannot think critically on this board at all. Or care about more than one issue at the same time it seems.

Come back in 5 years.
Let us know how Labour have done with your issues.

Elderly women forced to accept male carers.
Disabled women forced to accept males doing intimate care.
Disability benefits, and all welfare, cut to the core.

there will be no Utopia With Keir and Labour.
Only more people sharing the resources, less and poorer funded services, more cuts and higher tax and any male that wants to access women, kids, elderly and the vulnerable will be allowed to by law.

NamechangeForthisquestion1 · 22/05/2024 17:09

For a moment I thought 4th July would be during school holidays, so lots of people on holiday, but don't schools break up around 19th? 🤔

Can't wait to see the back of these scumbags! I'll be getting the wine in for sure 🥳

sp1ders · 22/05/2024 17:10

What are the 'five priorities'?

Increase homelessness.
Ensure more sick people die.
Make more people hungry.
Ensure the lower echelons can't access education.
Stop the police investigating actual crime.

Hot Lectern Guy is out

NamechangeForthisquestion1 · 22/05/2024 17:10

@TuesdayWhistler let's wait and see. It may not be a utopia, but people want change now, they've had enough. So let's see what Labour can do.

the80sweregreat · 22/05/2024 17:10

The lectern man is nice 👍

Benefits have been cut to the core already - why do you think it’ll be worse under Labour?

At least we won't starve to death whilst the man has his hands in our nether regions though 😊
