It's exactly that attitude that has got us into the position we are in.
In what possible way do you think etonian elistest right winger Boris Johnson might "change things up" for the better of this country?

You can't go with 'it's kind of funny how bad he is' and 'he's good actually'. You have to pick one.
I'm not convinced parliament will ever agree on anything, they haven't so far.
It seems that Swinson has shown her true colours - and shitty ones they are too
Demands a 2nd Referendum on BREXIT as ' Democracy ' and then categorically rules out a 2nd Referendum on Scottish Independence as ' Democracy '

Quickly replacing Ms Thornberry as my Two-faced-twat of the moment.

If anyone believes that those cnuts wouldn't get into bed with the Tories again.... Unicorns... for sale
I know we all knew it was going to happen but I am still rather baffled that some of you are managing to care about Jo Swinson on the eve of Boris becoming PM.
I'm not having a go. All credit for seeing the bigger picture. But I'm really not with you here.

No reason to just ignore the other 649 Charlatans, Liars, Dickheads, Loonies, Parasites, Fraudsters, etc, etc....
Yup they quit their principles some time ago and now just want to remain relevant on whatever horse rides
Lib Dems was once considered to the left of Labour .Amazing what sharing power can do to a party.
The main reason was under a more liberal Conservative party that believed in making something of yourself. Aspiration, hard work!
I always found the Labour Party, particularly under Corbyn, a party of the magic money tree.
When? When Brown was PM?
Yep, because the Tories have never done anything like magicking up a £1bn bribe to the DUP...
I like this Jo. She was on sky news earlier, came across well I felt.
Well damn.
Started to change when Charles Kennedy took over.
Lid Dems are no Labour. Some of those votes are inline with their long standing Liberalist policies (namely, smaller government). It's a bit like bringing conservativism as an argument against the Tories.
She actually said that based on the 2017 election result, where the SNP lost seats despite promising a second referendum that, the Scots Nats had no mandate for a second referendum and that's why she didn't support it.
Pity she can't get her head round the fact that the majority of people who voted in the Brexit Referendum voted to Leave, and therefore she, herself, has absolutely no mandate to try to stop it.
Why can't I? Many people who have been shite at something have managed to achieve things. Accidents happen.
Not true. If she leads a party which wins seats because it promises a second ref, then she would indeed have a mandate. We'll see won't we.
at the entire thread.If she leads the LibDems to an overall GE victory on a platform of stopping Brexit, then yes, she has her mandate.
At the last GE, that policy won her ( edit not her, but the LibDems ) about 15% of the votes, which equals no mandate whatsoever.

I've said it once at least before on this forum but as someone who knew Jared (as in saw him every week for about 3 years around 9 years ago) I can safely say he is a huge cnut.
Really wish Have I Got News For You, would come back early for this weekend.
Hahahahahahabha.

You are almost more pathetic than USfokkingA

I feel like I'm missing something about Hallam. It seems such an obvious place for the Greens to do well, given it's full of students and Sheffield is always talked about as one of the most environmentally minded cities. They never do, though.
I hope the Green bloke who was mayor and now an MEP can inspire something.
It should do an awful lot better than Nick Clegg and this bloke.
Like we've never had a public school toff running stuff before. Is Boris a man of the people now FFS?
Common sense politics assures citizens rights and adherence to the GFA. It'd be political suicide to unilaterally withdraw the former or break the latter.
“He might be a cnut but at least you know where you are with him, he tells it like it is”
I was referring to his racism specifically.
I’m referring to his entire existence.
Crazy stuffglorious
You're really bleak, lately. I like it.
glorious
Wow, that dude's an even bigger cnut than O'Mara. Using addiction and mental health for likes and retweets. 'Very liberal' indeed.Crazy stuff
Give it time.
Be afraid. The UK is becoming USAish with every passing day. I hope people see sense and look the other way to Europe.
It is. There's a clear and well funded plan from the American right to have us as their ally in white nationalism and it's working.
Well as someone who saw the state of NHS mental health counselling under a liberal conservative government, I'll be sure to the tell the young starbucks worker who's mental health was constantly on a downward spiral due to being over worked(Resulting in her routinely cutting her own face)all about your aspiration and hard work.
Serious question - When you hear stories like the one I've just told(Austerity has killed over 100,000 people in the UK), what do you actually think ?
