The 2019 General Election

[MrSki]

Of course, but nothing to do with a special liverpool education making a red city. It's so insulting. My city is red and it' s full of posh cunts in 50% of the seats. They wouldn't even know the sun is.

Liverpool was well red(Read) along time before Hillsborough & that shit with the S*n but for the last 30 odd years I have heard people suggesting 'The suns Says' as their own thoughts.

It can't do any harm to suggest other regions extend the boycott.

It wasn't - it was liberal yellow. Uniquely so amongst UK cities.

Had a wee toast to Corbyn (cup of peppermint tea) when I got in from my Xmas night out! Hopefully history will look on him as a decent man.

Lovely post, as good as the one from the guy saying it was a shame about not nationalising the lot. We need more of these.

People like "characters", cunts who are amusing.

next time he doesn’t show up for a debate/interview, rather than empty chair him they should just stick a big fridge freezer in his place and pretend he’s inside it.

Aw wow!!!! I love this song too...

Malcolm Middleton also made a very good christmassy song:

Lily Allen has deleted her Twitter account after backlash against her claims of the U.K. now a country of massive racism and misogyny.

 

[Poi E]

What are your views, Martybot1?

What are your views, Marty1?

Celebs, Twitter and political views are often a poor mix.

 

[cupid_stunt]

Considering all the many different reasons why people voted leave, and some ended-up voting Tory for the first time in order to get it done, Lily Allen has clearly demonstrated a level of total ignorance on a par with the urban poster known as B.I.G, who is either big nor clever.

Oh, and Piers Moron is a complete cunt.

I think we need to give a bit of leeway. A lot of people are angry and upset and I think a bit of lashing out is to be expected. Time will separate the real cunts from the frustrated and angry. Not too sure why I am saying this here though B.I.G as always been like this and I don't really care about Allen, but there is a lot of this sort of thing about at the moment.

Oh I disagree about Piers Morgan as frankly that's an insult to cunts.

 

[Dogsauce]

Morgan is a massive cunt, sad thing is he was about the only TV person who managed to get a bit of robust questioning in of the vermin in this election, they dodged everyone else.

 

[tommers]

Is there anybody left who I can just call a cunt without having to worry about it?

I mean, removing "people who voted Tory" feels like a big step.

 

[D'wards]

Still a lot of denial on Twitter

Doing some gr8 numbers there, which is what matters

Does anyone know what Allen actually said? There is a big difference between. 'U.K. now a country of massive racism and misogyny.' And 'racism runs so deep'

 

[Steel Icarus]

Some say it was Brexit, some day it was Jeremy [Corbyn], personally, and I know no one wants to hear it, I think that racism and misogyny runs so so deep in this country and that Boris won because of his attitude towards those things and not in spite of them.

Oh I think it is still fine to call tory voters cunts. I think saying everyone who lives in the north and meets some arbitrary definition of working class is a racist cunt is a bit different. In particular it would apparently make me a racist cunt, which is only 50% accurate.

 

[emanymton]

Which is a somewhat more reasonable position. No doubt there is a strain of tory vote that is motivated in large part by racism and misogyny. But that is not new and does not explain the change in this election. Personally i would need to hear more of what she think before I could make a judgement.

 

[Smangus]

Interviews on the radio with Northern wc voters bring up constant themes of

Brexit - betrayal of vote
Corbyn, don't like/trust/no connection with
National security - his past dialogues with IRA , Hamas etc, many have forces connections in the family etc.
Free Stuff, broadband etc - feeling of how are we going to pay for all this i.e. trust on the economy, who bothers to read the costings anyway.

This is all stuff Labour/Momentum will have to have an honest painful conversation about if it wants to win these people back. I don't see that happening though.

I think there's a lot of truth in this. My Tory voting colleagues are racists and like Boris because he's a racist. I'm sure plenty of racists voted Labour and plenty of non racists voted Tory but she's right racism runs deep in this country and that's the reason Boris blows that dogwhistle so hard. I don't think it's why the North flipped to Tory but I do think it's why the Tories do so well in their heartlands.

 

[marty21]

We lost , we have to accept that , twitter is raging #notmyprimeminister , when Boris clearly is , and has a massive majority. Brexit is basically done , we will leave next month and then get bogged down in negotiations for years , Boris will own Brexit, those Labour voters in the midlands and the north who 'lent' their vote to him will own it too , and all the fallout. We have to elect a new Labour leader and fight new battles.

 

[chilango]

All I'll say for now is that I called this election wrong, very wrong. I'll need to look at why that was before I comment much more.

 

[magneze]

I might have missed it but is there any analysis of how many ex-Labour lent their votes vs how many simply didn't vote?

 

[Dandred]

What a bunch of cunts.

Five more years of this fucking clown.

How stupid.

 

[planetgeli]

”Not that I think there is a bias of course. Just a series of errors have unfortunately all fallen a similar way...

Fucking class. Must remember that one.

BBC staff express fear of public distrust after election coverage

Many complained that they had come to dread discussing their jobs at family events or children’s parties...

Because even the children might stab them hopefully.

 

[Sasaferrato]

I see Jess Phillips kept her seat but wished she was a size 10



Doesn’t know whether she’ll throw her hat in for leadership.

She should.

Ha:

But my overwhelming impression is that people should be careful what they wish for, because they will end up with Fox News or Russia Today

Our propaganda is sophisticated, people should be careful when criticising it or else they might end up with vulgar propaganda instead. Parp parp bloody parp.

We've already got to the point where Sky news is better than the BBC.

Yeah, but it sounds like air rushing out of a punctured tyre. Left wing hobbyists had an even worse night than their hero
