That won't change the number of people employed by the British Government. Turkeys would be voting for Christmas.
I think the main reason this election was called was to give the Tories an extra 2 years to negotiate Brexit. "Not having a big enough majority" was a ridiculous excuse. It hadn't stopped them pass anything so far
The Tories top diplomat ladies and gents. An odious oaf. To think, there are people who want him to be prime minister.
If he became PM, he'd probably make Jeremy Clarkson Foreign Secretary.
It's genuinely one of the dumbest things I've ever seen tweeted.
SDLP as well, but they might lose seats. Though Sinn Fein could gain some, which would reduce the total needed again. Imagine the instability of that government, though.
cos they need to bash him and don't really have anything to do it with, maybe someone will mention the ira for a change
Corbyn has gone down to 3/1 to be PM after the election. Four weeks ago, you could get 20/1 on one website. The possibility of a hung parliament and possible Labour minority government is no longer as ridiculous at it seemed.
What would make you happiest on election night? This ranks right up there for me...
Opinium have a 6 point lead
Comres still have a 12 point lead but their groundwork includes this
which makes me quite suspicious of that lead. I think they might be overcorrecting for 2015.

Pretty much everything political disliked by the country at the moment

She got 65% last time, won't happen.
How is it rude?
There are tons of Brits who have been living on the coasts of Spain for decades that can't speak a word of Spanish.
Leave.EU speaking for all of the UK, as represented by their proud Union Flag emoji, and simultaneously forgetting that Welsh is an official language of that country.
Yeah but they can shout. WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT THAT???!!!
Edit: No offence intended. Meant in jest.

Is that a 30% swing from May to Corbyn?
Its their third safest seat in the country.
Ironic that the word "Welsh" derives from old English/Germanic for "Foreigner", given that they were here before the English/Germanic people migrated here.
No, 15.
What would happen if the Tories got a majority but she lost her seat? Would she still be PM?
There would have to be a leadership change I think. Oh god, it could be Boris...
No, the deputy leader become interim PM until that party picks a new leader.
Anybody else notice how quiet Rowling has got since Labour's "surge" in the polls? For someone who apparently wants a Labour government so much, it is quite strange.
Or they appoint her to the Lords (not that that's likely).
This Walker bloke (Daily Mirror) is a strong remainer & must be basing his batshit idea on Maidenhead having voted remain & as he has previously tweeted, ''There is something about Theresa that even Sir Lynton can't fix. A great many traditional Tories simply don't like her and her hard Brexit.''
He's a mentalist.
edit - if he seriously reckons TM might lose her seat

Which bit of that is wrong? She's abysmal. It won't be enough for her to lose her seat because as I've said before Tories might be cnuts but they're loyal cnuts, but it doesn't make it untrue.
Too busy moaning about Trump.
OK, he's making mischief via a mentalist idea. I was just trying to fill in some background but didn't construct t'post very well.
What you said is also true & why it won't be happening, unfortunately.
Been away all day - have I missed much?
2 more, admittedly fairly minor, reasons to hate the fecking Tories
source: Twitter
''I have no party allegiance, I just call it as I see it.'' - Julia Hartley-Brewer (one of our LBC friends)
''After this is over, major national re-education programme needed for young voters on money, tax, defence, life.'' - Iain Martin (Times journo)

Q. Why are you pushing the most vulnerable into a meatgrinder?
A. No surrender to the IRA!
Keep pushing that compassionate conservatism.

Has to be intentional. T is so far from P.
Thankfully I think more people have shared this take on Martin's tweet than actually agreed with him
