On big matters important to voters maybe they do. Labour told their core support in the 2017 election they would respect the referendum result and leave (inc customs union etc). They reneged on this. Also I’m guessing nobody believed the manifesto was fully costed and would be paid for by the...

BSB, you’ll have to accept that a majority of the public (and in particular traditional labour voters) appear to trust Johnson more than Corbyn/current labour

Potentially cost Tories a win in Sunderland though

Ps just seen Caroline flints comments...couldn’t have put it better myself !

I bet a lot more people would’ve moved if corbyn had got in ! I’m holding my tongue until the actual results are out (I still feel the exit poll might be a fair bit out and majority will be a lot smaller) but whilst a few on here would accept corbyn as leader just to get labour in, I don’t know...

Definitely the wrong course Dave. Think my second year was about 15 hours a week (plus extra study time which I obviously utilised wisely !! :))

To be fair I think there’s a higher youth engagement these days (which is good)...unfortunately quite narrow views based on limited experience (that’s not intended on being disrespectful)

Probably expected though. End of working day. I think students would’ve gone throughout the day

Agree with this mate. There is a nasty undertone to politics from momentum on the left and a devious/dishonesty (very trump like politics) from groups on the right. I’ve said a few times on various political threads my view of politics and a majority of the political class is as low as it’s...

I heard this as well Clint. Could be a big youth turnout which will definitely benefit Corbo. Also correct that if it’s safe labour seats then doesn’t really matter but I think there will certainly be a greater youth influence than predicted in the polls....especially now stormzy, Lily Allen...

cant say fairer than that (last para aside)

Life’s full of disappointments !

really NW, not being difficult but what in the Tory manifesto suggests that (Brexit aside as this could happen under labour) ?

In a hung party/coalition all bets (promises) are off...just as the Lib Dems

right decision BSB. Whether I agree with you political views or not, you spend time to try to understand the current political landscape (what’s best for you and the country) so if people like you spoil their ballot paper, we are fucked....however much it might be voting best of a bad bunch (ps...

steered clear of posting for a few days because, let’s be honest, pretty much all on here made their minds up weeks ago (as did I after the manifestos were released). All the mud slinging since has hopefully been irrelevant. I had to respond to the above though Fernando as there are genuine...

Brutal monologue by Neil about Johnsons ‘no show’ ! Farage (love him or hate him) handled it quite well to be fair

Really liked it. Agree with other comments about how the actors moved (like old people) but can forgive that. Great film

You and Fernando are both right. He does his job well, very bright but also lacks the ability to empathise with peoples views he disagrees with (because he’s never wrong !)

Wouldn’t get too excited, fine margins in relation to key constituencies
