to be fair ozanne I was not happy about Truss winning the leadership election as thought she would be usual right wing tory w*nkhead but still might end up winning an election, whereas you were arguing she was a gift for Labour.

Turns out you might be right (although let's see what happens when people realise they have an extra £10/wk to spend on fuckallcauseeverythingisshit).

How many times have I seen mid term voting intention polls show the opposition with a lead.

We'll see when the election comes.

I just don't trust the public.

labour were -19 when corbyn stood down.

[steviewevie]

surely the pressure to uturn on some of those tax cuts is going to be too great...especially that 45p one...unless Kw*nkteng is really going to start announcing spending cuts (freeze benefits etc).

Tell me about it!

This is astonishing. It not only shows the Tories capitulating but also showing the good work Labour have done over the last 2 years.

Mate, don't get too excited - that ain't gonna happen in a million years! Besides, a majority like that is never good for democracy, even if it is the party we support. I'd settle for a 50 seat majority personally.

Too late fella 😂

Seriously though I know it wouldn’t lead to that type of majority, I’m just revelling in the moment.

I’d settle for a Labour minority government tbh.

You think they'll have a 350 seat majority? A couple of days ago you were saying the Tories will still win! 😉

i'll be pissed off if i don't get a rise in my pip; the missus tells me i'm on the top wack for that. 🙂 

 

who is going to march this weekend #EnoughIsEnough

[squirrelarmy]

I’ve got a scary feeling that Boris will be back before Halloween. 
 

We’re definitely being played by the Tories. They have shown us that it can be worse without him and he will be riding back in to save the day. 
 

This seems like their game plan to begin with. 
 

We’re fucked either way till 2025
