The 2019 General Election

I've long been saying HM should keep her hand over her teacup till it's all over.

 

[andysays]

December 12th it is then

Can eliminate the votes of anyone who has a work Xmas Party that night and has a habit of going on to the pub after the meal.

I’m not Corbyn’s greatest fan, but the ball’s in play now. Let’s see what happens.

It’s not as if the Tories are in a great place. They will be squeezed in both Scotland and the Remain parts of the South. We are yet to see if they can really gain in the Labour North. They may struggle to.

They are very reliant on Johnson’s electoral ‘magic’. The rest of the Government is full of absolute twats who will need keeping off the TV. Should any revelation damage Johnson (Arcuri?) it could get close.

C’mon Jezza, get on the stump again.

I’d like it to be otherwise but I think the Tories are in a great place tbh .

Parliament to be dissolved on the 5th of November.

Insert gag here.

You melts!

 

[tommers]

The day of our xmas party. Great.

Johnson killed Christmas...the very best thing he has done ​

Ours is the 13th so at least we can go out and get drunk. Although I’m on duty so there’s always a chance I won’t make it out at all if there’s a crisis.

 

[brogdale]

The day of our xmas party. Great.

Open till 10pm; could be some scenes behind those little curtains across the booths.

You have curtains on your booths? Are you in Russia?

Yes, Brexit counts for a massive amount and would seem to put a lot of votes in the Tory bag.

But in other respects they are not in such a great place - he's a PM who continually loses votes, failed to deliver his 31st October promise, has alienated natural support of unionists of all sorts, faces meltdown in Scotland, pressure in the Tory Remain seats, has other issues like Arcuri that threaten to boil over, has ex-ministers ready to cause trouble and has a calamity prone cabinet comprised of what must be the thickest group of shits ever to take the name. Moreover the strategy to mitigate these deficits is the Tories (or their provisional wing the BP) need to take Labour heartlands.

In any post war election these would have been seen as potentially fatal problems. They probably won't be, but a majority is by no means assured.

 

[TheHoodedClaw]

Phew - glad it's the twelfth for purely selfish reasons (It means a four-day weekend for me)

Watershed election , could be the end of Corbyn and Corbynism.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

For fuck sake, here we go again.

 

[bluescreen]

Not another one.

 

[brogdale]

Yeah, maybe I've just imagined that.

Wonder if we could find a post from 2017 that said exactly that?

 

[danny la rouge]

Yeah, maybe I've just imagined that.

You’re thinking of confessionals. And you’ve outed yourself as a Catholic.

 

[ffsear]

I'm in Amsterdam that week, oh well

most of those errors, etc, will be forgotten in a GE

oh, and much of the fight and bile from the right is going to be on social media, unless you are targeted, or read the guardian, which will document it, you won't really know it is happening.

True. Most of the campaigning will be done invisibly online rather than on the doorstep. (Plus the Tories don't have the foot soldiers these days anyway.)

Good for you! If only all electors would be as responsible!
