Johnson, with his lead role in the Brexit campaign, his lies, incompetence and lack of moral compass, will be the cause of the Labour landslide if it happens. The fact the Tories have wheeled this specimen out, with his usual unkempt, slept in a skip look, shows the sheer desperation to avert a political disaster. Hopefully, those who have been conned not once, but many times in the past by Johnson, will ignore his verbal crap, and vote for change.
Ummm he doesn’t like Johnson, he rightly views him as a Bohemian Blairite liberal who completely messed up everything with his establishmentarian and authoritarian approach to lockdowns.
Imagine for one moment you had to bury your loved one during Covid and then you see the tories chanting Boris, Boris, Boris! like he's some sort of amazing leader, the man is a vile narcissist.
It shocks me that Brois is not done with FOREVRER! How is he allowed to spew trash over and over and over again. Why is this guy allowed anywhere near TV, parliament, or sane people.... I abhore him from the bottom of my heart after what he has done to this country. Does BREXIT and COVID don't say it all!!!!! He should not be forgiven to what he did to the people who lost their loved ones, and could not even say good bye. 😢

I’m sorry, I like David Gauke but his rationale that the Tories providing a strong opposition is the bulwark to the hard right is ludicrous. “We need a strong Tory party otherwise voices outside parliament might start saying “we hate this parliament, they’re out of touch…”” How isn’t all of that already happening with a Tory majority? I wish these one nationers like gauke and Rory Stewart would see the light already and realise that the health of politics would be best served with a Lib dem opposition pushing labour in a constructive way (not on culture wars) and a small rump of right wingers howling at the moon. The Tory party is rotten because it lost its ability some time ago to keep the wing nuts in their box - and its lead to ukip and brexit and reform and the Tory party itself becoming hostage to hard right politics. If the one nationers stopped clinging to this misguided notion that if only the voters were nice the Tory party could return to sensibility. It isn’t going to happen. Rather, they should support a sensible, centrist lib dem opposition that will resist labour’s statist inclinations but work constructively to better the lot of the people of the UK and hopefully help to start to fix the myriad issues.
David G was my MP so it’s good to see him doing well. In my opinion the tories need to lose BADLY to cure themselves of this extreme right wing fixation.
Sir Toolalot, the former Sir Kneelalot the man who cannot define a woman yet married to one - you trust him with safety of your daughters? He has already said he will give an amnesty to those guests in our hotels majority young men, that we are paying for, he has also said he will smash the gangs and work with France... er um right - so if Le Pen gets in I can see her welcoming the unpaying guests in France travelling across the channel and being escorted by the RNLI - the whole election is one con after another and I fear for any woman in our country - have you forgotten Bradford! All the money being thrown at illegal travellers is costing us our NHS being run in an efficient manner, the junior doctors a decent wage so they don't have to strike and we can get to see our GP's and have our specialist appointments. The next 4-5 years are going to be tough. Our land is going to houses, has anyone thought about how we feed ourselves if overseas in turmoil! VOTE WISELY FOLKS
Absolutely right I’m no Tory but the country does need a decent sensible Tory party, sadly they have lost their minds over the last 10 years and have thrown out most of the intelligent competant talent, and David is certainly one of them
@@ScruffyTubblesengineering suggests an element of design, control and oversight. The Tories have completely lost the plot and consequently the control of steering wheel. IMHO, the Tories deserve to be out of power - or anywhere near Westminster - for a generation so that none of the current iteration is ever in contention for election again.
The tories have self destructed as a party, the safe pair of hands has long gone. Unfortunately whoever takes charge has an almost impossible job to reconstruct the damage.
I've never really understood why labour and lib dems are seperate parties either tbh. A leftover from a century ago, that handed tories dozens of election victories. Priti Patel and Badenoch don't have the intellectual capacity to be leader, Patel made a fool of herself during the covid briefings, and committed a form of treason in Israel. Badenoch is a complete disaster with the non-client press and similar to the other 2 is entirely reliant on confected culture wars. Any of those 3 as leader would guarantee labour in for at least a decade. If they take in farage it would cement that, for every 1 voter he gets he highly motivates 5 to vote against him, he is the most despised man in the country by far, and in 5 years even more of the pro-brexit demographic will have died off.
I don't get this argument that there needs to be a right of Labour in opposition. The centre is only the current centre. Labour can easily represent the centre right position relative to the opposition.
More likely posts containing "don't be a tory" or "that's a totally tory idea" will cause pearl clutchers to flag a "profanity" and calling someone "a farage" would be ways worse than calling farage a cnut.
@@marystringfellow8185I prefer my water without faeces, my NHS working - with folk able to get prompt treatment, roads not so neglected that capital investment budgets need to be raided to undertake routine maintenance, schools not ready to collapse on top of our children, energy prices not dictated by the insatiable greed of rapacious capitalists and insane despots, decent affordable public transport, a sustainable national housing policy, the respect of our international friends as a trustworthy ally and trading partner and a government which doesn't treat the most vulnerable in our society with cynical, calculated cruelty. I want a government with some semblance of a forward gear. I want our young to have some faith in possibilities for their own futures. That all sounds as far from the record of the feral dogmatists who've systematically wrecked our nation over the past 14 increasingly hellish years as it's possible to imagine.
The Lib Dems presenting themselves as a party of government was one of the big reasons they suffered such a bad defeat last time (as was running on cancelling Brexit, to be fair). They were acting above their station. The Lib Dems need to first get enough seats to be seen as a serious party before they can put on that big boy and big girl clothing. If they do particularly well tomorrow and there's not much space in MPs between them and the Tories, then maybe they can start transitioning. They've been running this campaign really well, I think: far better than trying to run before you can walk.
David makes a very thoughtful point about the Liberals positioning themselves as being ‘to the left of Labour’. I/We have always been snippily thinking of them as ‘Tories with a conscience’, whereas now they seem to be re-acting to Labour taking the centre ground by abandoning their previous appearance and dressing up as nice safe Lefties! They always were a tricky lot to deal with in both local and national elections as lots of us Labour activists remember….treacherous to a t:-) I would have thought, like David again alluded to, that they shouldn’t waste their time trying to be ‘safe Lefties’ but revert to being ‘safe Righties’ or as I said earlier, Conservatives with a conscience. There is a danger for them there though. Nick Clegg is not remembered kindly after his 180 degree turnaround on Tuition Fees.
From the US looking across the pond, Ed Davie (not sure of spelling) is exactly right about only getting platformed if you're outrageous. I can't see any other reason for why British media is so obsessed with covering Farage and Reform UK over parties. They're not players, they're not even a chance of bring in government or the opposition, but they seem to get pushed due to them saying outlandish things driving clicks/views.
Bear in mind a lot of Farage's online supporters have writing habits that are curiously similar to the Rusbots who swarm Ukraine or Trump-related news.
Just as an aside, has anyone considered with Starmer ex CPS Head as PM, Boris no longer has protection from Criminal Investigation? Boris next TV appearance could be of him being thrown in the back of a Police Van as Starmer arrives at No10 on Friday Morning?
We all are often critical of most of our politicians. People like David G are very sensible decent people but couldn't continue the service which is a real shame.
That would be 'no'. Labour isn't interested in electing weak incompetents as leader anymore, and unless he's up against one of those, he looks incredibly weak. And the public are well aware of his mendacity and incompetence.
The credit for discrediting Torries goes to all four Borris,Liz,Rishi and Torries supporters. Well done all four to take Torries to Political oblivion or in Indian language Political Sanyasam. Thanks Borris Liz and Rishi and all Borris surrogates Priti Patel,Suella Rees etc.
Mush as I hope for a large Labour majority, it will cause problems for Starmer, especially if a significant number of his new MPs are on the left of the party. E.g. there is no manifesto commitment to removing the two-child cap on Child Benefit, yet it would help to reduce child poverty. Starmer will need to reconsider on that.
Simple answer, NO. His gravitas has floated away, devoid of any mass whatsoever. He's like one of those dreadful comedians who made racist and sexist jokes in the 80s. He's simply unacceptable to most voters anymore.
Hopefully Alliance party in Northern Ireland wins 3-4 seats they will pack in with Lib Dem 100% as they are full partners. Great to see the Tories pushed to 3rd place.
It’s clear the Tories haven’t learned the lessons of the past few years. Bringing Boris back ‘on board’ is just plain ridiculous. He’s a busted flush. He’ll be popular with diehard Tory members and voters, but he is a hate figure to most voters. The Tories are now getting really desperate.
I find this commentary very 'flim-flam' and just generally weak kneed. It's like the presenters are sat on a fence and don't know which side to fall on. Johnson must be called out for what he is, ditto the conservative party. They have done that bad of a job over 14 years that grifters like Farage get sniffing for disgruntled conservative voters and offering them a pint over the far right side of the bar. In these sort of reports, I do like to see nuance and balance. But let's face it, the reason the conservatives have most likely reached the end of their shelf life is because even the most clueless voter now sees the true horror of what their ambition is. I think a better way to report on this election is through the eyes of Jonathan Pie, who comedically tells it like it is.
The main problem not only with Conservative politicians but Conservative voters as well is a lot of them a morally corrupt. At one time politicians would do the decent thing and resign for a lot less than what's happened in the party since 2015. There are too many politicians and who are selfish and voters that will put up with deplorable behaviour from our representatives. It shows they neither have morals nor principles.
Nearly every video appertaining to the election discusses what's happening "on the doorstep" - but I surely can't be the only one who hasn't had a single candidate or canvasser knock on their door despite it being such an important election. And I have been in! I haven't taken my neighbour's position that if they can't be bothered to knock on her door then she can't be bothered to vote, but I was surprised that not even one showed up.
So if Libdems are n't getting coverage its not becauae theh dont hsve seats. Reform..have one MP and Enoch Farage and his BNP 2.0 gets a disproprtionate amount of attention.
I can't even watch this video - the damage Johnson has done. No hyperbole, I am not wasting a minute more on watching or listening to this awful person. (I had to click on the video to make the point but have paused it at the beginning).
I appreciate how measured and considered these discussions are. They're not overblown or outlandish, no great appeals to emotion. It's nice to see thoughtful conversations can still exist in this day and age.
its a pity they did not get him 6 weeks ago lol that would have been the best idea lol then the tories defo be on for 3rd lol this is not the last day of rome... its he last day of sodom or gamora lol Rome is about to be reborn :)

its a pity they did not get him 6 weeks ago lol that would have been the best idea lol then the tories defo be on for 3rd lol this is not the last day of rome... its he last day of sodom or gamora lol Rome is about to be reborn :)
Suella wants to appear prescient and wise. She is claiming the narrative because she wants to lead lol.
I wonder what happens if there is a tie for 2nd place? Who then forms HM Opposition??
Boris Johnson is only a reminder of why people shouldn’t vote tory ever again.
He wouldn't last longer than the head of lettuce
If the Conservatives get any more than 3 seats it will be a true tragedy for the country.
Imagine if the Tories had to form a coalition just to form and opposition.
What happens if 2 parties tie for second place? Does one need to form a coalition in opposition?
My guess is upper Tory end 41 to 48 seats, lower end 3 to 23 seats.
Johnson is too idle and incapable of driving change and organisation.
Looking more like his caracture every day.
He was the cause of the downfall of the conservatives
What's the point in a new opposition party if they just turn into one nation Tories?
Hope the Tories wind up with fewer seats than the Lib Dems
Going full Johnson more lies and more daft hair
He will take credit for any seat the Tories don't lose.
vote libdem or green, if they have a chance in your area.
Jail boris....lock him up, lock him up...
