For the first person to get through the barrier between the media and the public and get to call someone a wanker or such like from any of the political parties, and for it to be recorded in the news. Post it here, and award yourself 10 internet points

Er I’m not crying. Unlike you I don’t need someone to tell me who the good guys are and indeed what election it is you are voting for.

I have noted more for other parties than the Tories.

I never voted for Lord Lazy, Mr Soapbox or any of the candidates when Blair was in power.

There are no sides. Just a zombie parliament,

Like not paying taxes or adhering to speed limits?

Are you Jimmy Carr, or Jeremy Clarkson.

Voting should be a duty, not just a "right" as you wokerati like to go on about.

Fucking snowflakes, going on about how representative democracy is not for them.

The Tory campaign will be the 2019 one minus Brexit, so lots of claims about disastrous consequences of voting Labour.

Not sure what the Labour campaign will be, a counter to all the Tory lines but very little hope I guess.

if they try that (which they will) there will be just lots of pointing at the last 14 years of unmitigated disaster.

The Labour one should focus on Sunak look at this clown do you want him back.

The Tory one will be but Labour this and Labour that.

On most metrics, New Labour did a great job.

Iraq screwed Blair's legacy.

If Starmer could somehow big up the achievements of the 1997 government, while distancing himself from the Iraq debacle, he'll be home and dry.

A bit too late to distance himself from the current controversial war seen as he's already been cheering on war crimes in the form of collective punishment.

The actual number is going to be a whole lot more with the destabilisation of the area and everything which came with that.

Not many times you can say the UK was involved with a war of aggression.

What? Saying to people of the country you want to be leader of "I like this country" is a bad thing?

Okay fella

Show your patriotism by making sure not one of your citizens is homeless, not by getting a hard on for a flag.

As a plastic Paddy (second generation Irish with both an Irish and British passport), I'm quite happy to see Simon Harris with a tricolour in the background.

I honestly don't get this animosity towards the Union Jack (which, to be honest, is a fucking great flag).

I don’t think it’s animosity to a flag, it’s the idea that you can ONLY be patriotic in that way.

Sorry, just dont have time to explain simple concepts to you. If you have got a flag left over from the Coronation, give it a little wave.
