Why the lib-dems are shit

Wasn't sure whether to put this here or in graunid thread

Tim Farron says he doesn't believe being gay is a sin

Of course, Farron is able to answer this question in a weaselly way because he can answer in the negative while still believing that gay sex is a sin which means that his position on there is roughly the same as that of say ISIS who also do not believe that being gay is a sin.

Is he wearing mixed fabrics there?

I'd forgotten about this...until it was put up on twitter...

That sounds like Julia Heartless-Brewer as the interviewer, so no surprise there. She couldn't interview Buddha without being a snide shitrag about it

EDIT: it is JLB, it's noted in the link. It has her audible stench as well. Broadcasting from the newly reformed 'talk radio' which, if it was anything like the 90's output, consists of propagating the 'white working man is the most oppressed group' bullshit it did before Kelvin Macenzie brought it out, and made it even worse.

"I don't mind if Tim Farron thinks homosexuality is a sin because he's one of those lovely, hate the sin, love the sinner bigots".

Nah, it still bothers me.

That article just needs this adding to its list of why it's cool to love Timmy:

"Is prepared to prop up another Tory government as they take away the rights of pretty much every minority in the country especially if they're poor and disabled - GO TIM!"

I do wonder if Tim is a bit conflicted when it comes to sexuality?

I see they declared war on Kate Hoey today.

Two years ago she got 54% of the vote and the LibDems got 7% - I'm sure she's worried.

 

[agricola]

Perhaps, though it will probably be quite easy to vote for her again if it ends up in a Hoey vs Lib Dem / Open Britain contest.

Odd how these people of principle, these beacons of decency failed to sack David Ward whilst he was a sitting MP.

After today's sacking as PPC for Bradford East:

I" would defy anybody to find one single derogatory comment I've made against a Jew which was not related to something being done in Israel."

i.e it's ok to be anti-semitic if the Israeli state is bad. Read that defence a few times. It says, i have said derogatory things about jews but they were provoked by the jews. Or, more charitably, i have said derogatory things about jews but they were provoked by the israeli state, so justifiable.

Tim Farron says 'I'm a bit of a Eurosceptic' - BBC News

"I don't want to go off on a little bit of a rabbit hole here, but you will remember that I resigned from the Liberal Democrat front bench about 10 years ago because I am a bit of a Eurosceptic," he said.

"I'm somebody who challenges people in power - the EU, in government, in councils - but I am somebody who believes Britain is better off in the European Union."

Lol.

Fucking hell, cunts will say anything. This is the twat that insisted that Corbyn should resign for not being pro-EU enough.

Because the Greens are even worse than the Liberals

I am in contact with the British antarctic survey who desire volunteers to place trig points across British possessions across the southern ocean.

There was a time when the Liberal Party was truly evil yet managed to keep the nation amused. Now, they're just bland, corrupt and inadequate so, little different from their opponents

 

[redsquirrel]

Still you'd have to be a cunt to vote for them. Surely you could a better alternative.

Don't you have to tick a box confirming that you are before they let you join?

Lib Dems shouldn't count on Remain votes - the data looks bleak

Conventional wisdom suggests the Tories could bleed Remain votes to the Lib Dems. Our detailed data analysis suggests this idea could be very wrong indeed.

Our results depend on the accuracy of ICM’s polling of course, and they’re a description of the state of play now rather than a prediction of the final election result. Those caveats aside, it’s fair to say that they aren’t what we expected.

Our model sees the Tories on 422 seats, with Labour reduced to just 150, and the Lib Dems declining from 9 to 6.

Let's hope they are right about the lib dems. Be nice to have some good news on an (likely) otherwise shit night.

Not sure where else to put this photo of Willie Rennie of the Scottish Lib Dems out campaigning today. Sure you'll agree it needed to go somewhere though.
