General Election called

Well the 2 that have gone through in France,both parties have never been in Power, another example to me,of how the people are pig sick of the establishment,
 
in our election corbyn is trying to oaint himslef as teh vitim of media hoping he will succeed like trump did

difference is trump loves his country corbyn chums around with those who want to destroy it

hes a big fan of the IRA and Islamic hate preachers , dosnt lie our army and despises the royal family

also can we trust a guy who cant find anywhere to sit on an empty train and even gets caught out lying about it

Speaking of which, the Mongsewers & Madmossels are off to the first round of elections today. I really do hope Marine Le Pen kicks butt today & sends the scummy socialists whining & yowling, tail tucked between their legs down the road to oblivion after what they've done to France & her people!

Don't get me wrong on this, like any good Englishman worth his salt I can't abide the sneering, self centred, arrogant froggits, whose arses we've kicked & then confusingly rescued on varying occasions over the years.

No,the reasoning for my desire to see a more nationalistic & French France resurgent is far more selfish than that, I want Le Pen to dominate in France to assist & expedite the "Shoving it up eu!" & removal of the hordes of "Rapefugees & Gimmegrants" skulking along the French coast waiting to illegally enter our fair isle.


Vive La Victoire! Vive Le Pen!

Same hopes as you DinG, but now that she has come second all the losing candidates will try and swing their support behind the other one - ganging up on France's saviour in waiting.

How very French of them, well, it's their own downfall as there's no known cure for stupidity!

If the French people think their lives and job prospects will be improved by voting for a global corporatist banker, they deserve what's coming to them (i.e. more of the same).

Apparently Macron wants to cut public spending by E12 billion a year for 5 years, cut 120,000 public sector jobs and cut taxes by 20 billion a year - he must have the Midas touch, and the courage to endure the inevitable strikes by the public sector workers. He probably hasn't factored in the increased payments to the EU to make up for the loss of funding from the UK. Allez France.;)
 
Listening to the Labour Party plans from Keir Starmer does not fill me with confidence for a possibility of a Labour Government.
They do not want to negotiate with the EU, they want to capitulate.
Jeremy Corbyn would go to the EU and negotiate(in the event of a Labour victory) and he would come back with a deal...regardless.
They want access to the single market, this in spite of the fact that we actually buy more from EU countries than they buy from us.
Let us get right out...not one foot in and one foot out...but totally completely out of it.
We share a house with 27 other lodgers, but pay half of the rent...that is the main reason they do not want us to leave and Labour would show their hand of cards before they get to the table.
This is clearly not what was voted for at the referendum. But of course these elite politicians believe that they know what is best for us.

Have to disagree Margaret. they know whats best for themselves not us.
 
Yes, we both KNOW that, but they believe we are too dense and I'll informed to determine what is good for us.
Not really too different from what is happening in France.
The people are being hoodwinked by their politicians too.
They have a choice. They can vote for someone who is not in the mould of previous administrations, or they can keep to the status quo and nothing will change for the better.

We have a choice too on the 8th of June. We can vote for someone who will take us right out of the mess that is the EU, or we can vote for the banner not the man (the man is clearly not fit to lead) and get a government which will do what other Labour governments have done.( they may need coalition help to do this, which will hamper their proposals)They will spend silly money that they have not got, with no ideas as to how to get it...they will borrow money that our children will spend their lives paying for.
So we are (almost) in the same boat.

The media are full of criticism of Keir Starmer and his shambolic speech.
This is the 'would be' leader of the Labour Party.
He is also the Shadow secretary for Brexit, and yet he wants to keep the single market, but says they will curb free movement of people. So he wants to be in the EU and out of the EU at the same time. How will that work?
And does he know how daft it sounds.
This is something I commented on yesterday(are the journalists picking my brains - no, of course they aren't). I do not reckon I am particularly smart, but if I can see how daft it all is why can't those in the political parties?
 
Cashy, you are right, but they treat us like we haven't a brain to bless ourselves with.
They have a lot of highflown ideas(and some of them would be very good if they could tell us how they would be funded) but not a lot of common sense.
Are they seriously thinking we will swallow this garbage.
They talk about Theresa May being unreliable because she changed her mind about calling an election.
She changed her mind because the circumstances changed.
If you were the Captain of a ship and you saw a huge iceberg heading right for you...you would change your direction of travel(well, you would if you had an ounce of sense).
So many people were telling her that she did not have a mandate for this...did not have a mandate for that, she was not elected. this was not in the manifesto.
The only way these critics will be silenced is if she goes to the country and asks them if they trust her to get us out of Europe(so far I do - she has brooked no interference from those who would thwart the will of the people, even though she said she was a 'remainer').
This is the only way it can be settled.
If by some chance Labour get into power we are all stuffed!
