The future if Boris gets in

There's a joke here in the states that George Bush looks like a saint to us now. He even grinned at reporters at one point and said, "Miss me, now?" And damn me if we don't. Would take him 100X over DT. Of course, would rather have Obama back but the other comparison makes the point re/ how desperate the majority of us are here...

^ so we can ‘take back control and be the wonderful country we once were’^

When were we ever a 'wonderful country'? Can anyone tell me?

Really there is no sensible alternative. JC will borrow to go on 1.2 trillion spending spree and our children and grandchildren and children yet to be born will end up paying for it. I think Boris will do well. When mayor of London he brought down crime, built more affordable housing, brought in Boris bikes and we had a good Olympic games in London. I agree with his policy on crime; if a person is given a 20 years sentence it is for a good reason so should not be released after just 8 years. He also has a sensible plan for immigration using a points based system like Australia do. He has promised more police and nurses and more money for NHS. JC offers more money giveaway but it is not fair on future generations to burden them with huge debt. It is so selfish to do that.

That doesn’t make it right though cc

Boris and Trump.
People seem to have forgotten how Tony Blair crept round George W. Bush.

I have no understanding how an intelligent person can vote for him and the Tories because ‘he’ll get Brexit done’ My god
urmstongran I m disappointed in you
What on earth do you think England and yes it may not be UK will look like when Brexit is done !!! Do you really think saying whoppee we are out after the election is the end of it This is going to go on for years, are our friends in Europe really that much of monsters, is it worth all this just to rub your hands and to say ‘we re out’ we will alienate ourselves from Scotland Ireland and mainland for what ? so we can ‘take back control and be the wonderful country we once were’ what a mistake

Just 'saying' that austerity is over doesn't actually make it true.

Actions speak louder than words and there have been no actions on the part of the tories to bring an end to austerity.

Do you always believe everything you're told, Ug? Even when you're told it by a confirmed liar?

WW, yes I think the UK is on borrowed time.

It fills me with despair. Truly. Please let it not happen. Tories Out!!!

And Austerity measures haven't 'ended'. I see people going down as a result each and every day. Open your eyes.

Many more people under severe stress and some committing suicide due to Universal Credit.

Future under Boris? Universal Cruelty. And we will have failed our children if we vote for the Tories.

But you know

Nothing lasts for ever, and when the voter finally understands the way he/she was mislead their fury will be like nothing we have seen.

“The lying politicians, the corrupt lawyers, and accountants. The greedy bankers, the arms dealers and shit-scientists and the smooth salesmen who pushed the corrupt and liars because it was good for business will all be put in the dock to answer for their misdeeds.

And what will they say?

“We did it because if we hadn’t someone else would have”

And the voter will say “ oh, we see, so if you hadn’t raped a girl some other fellow would have rapped her”?

And that’s your justification for rape? Well we note that say the voters.”

But never again. We will never allow it.

From le Carre

He will deliver Brexit so he will get my vote.

Austerity measures have ended (officially - Theresa May assured us of that in the summer) so hopefully conditions will pick up for many more now.

After Brexit?

The next GE after it will be interesting. Probably no Jeremy Corbyn. Swinson might have been replaced by then too. Brexit won’t be a deciding factor any more as we will have left.

And of course we get Trump thrown in for free!

The breakup of the Union.

Amazon to get NHS patient data. Undoubtedly that will in return be sold to USA drug companies.
