Anyone care to let me know of any policies from any of the parties that they actually believe will be delivered?

All I see is false promises. No surprises there then!

Tories : we will spend money, honest! This comes after they cut services to shreds.

Labour : we will spend loads of money, apparent bottomless pit of money. They must have a big ol sofa. Usual tax the rich mantra.

Lib Dem’s : who cares?


Lib Dems: cancel Brexit
Tory's: deliver Brexit
Labour: have another referendum

There's 3 for you, despite what they say, this election is about Brexit

Lib Dem’s : Jo Swindlerson, sort yer gob out or just stop smiling.

Labour : Government WiFi , so Corbyn can listen in to whatever you’re doing online.

Tory : Get Brexit done and start making things better.

SNP : More division as if the country isn’t divided enough.

Yep its all utter bollocks even more than normal this time. This election is a second Brexit referendum by proxy and there's no hiding from it. So:

Conservatives = Brexit probably very quickly after the election

Libdems = Remain

Labour = Free broadband to entertain yourself while you're unemployed

The worst possible outcome will be a hung Parliament but somehow im starting to think Boris will do it. Just down to the weakest opposition in living memory. Corbyn makes Gordon Brown look like a raging success.

Boris is going to have to up his game, if you ask me. It feels as if they're on the back foot to me and everyone else is driving the agenda. Sure, all the opposition parties are doubling down on him/the Tories but it does seem as if they lurch from one mini-crisis or sh!tty BBC headline to another and it wouldn't surprise me if that is eroding their apparent polling lead.

 

Still think we'll end up with another hung parliament with a fractionally larger number of Tory seats but less chance of the DUP riding to the rescue this time.

The bias in the BBC coverage is astounding.

I barely bother with news since hmm about 3 years ago funnily enough! Lots going on in the world and we hear nothing about it just because of one relatively small issue we are collectively over thinking!

Seems all the polls have a Tory lead, all depends by who to how much.

 

Perhaps like before with the tv debates which start this week will see who comes out on top, it seemed to make a fair bit of difference last time, i dont think Boris will be as "weak" as TM appeared previously though.

If you don’t listen to the news you’re uninformed. If you do listen to the news your misinformed.

They're apparently gunning for me.
 
Money wasted though, as it'll never get served up to me, not being a Faecesbook user. :D

Over the last couple of days ive noticed some mention to the island of Ireland having a simultaneous referendum on unification, a possibility?

“No one needs or deserves to have that much money, it is obscene.” Old McDonald cutting up rough on Billionaires.

Any .Org members falling foul of Labour policy?

What he really means is “I’m jealous of anyone who has more than I have so I’m going to make sure that they don’t”

 

Just like when Brown raided pension schemes & put into place lifetime allowances to ensure that no one could have a pension bigger than his.

 

O’Donnell’s latest announcement on workers rights also really saying “we will undo everything that Thatcher did and go back to the early 70’s”
