She's definitely one of the better politicians and speaks excellently with both passion and honesty. I also liked that Leanne Wood when she was the leader of Plaid, but mainly for the way she handled herself on those podiums, her and Lucas where by far the most competent speakers. 

Ever read her book "Honourable Friends"?

 

Excellent read about how dysfunctional and wilfully arcane the UK's parliamentary system is.

Deltapoll have a 13% gap, but YouGov now have Labour at only 9% behind, first time they've had it under 10% since 20th Sept.

I’ve read the hidden post now.  
 

to be fair, the thought of doing my new job as a civil servant would be fucking hilarious.

I thought you’d watched The Sopranos and knew what Stronts was referring to. 
 

It was a very good pun.

What a fuck-up by Farage going full 'Ratner' by kow-towing to the Conservatives in Tory-held constituencies. Who would have thought they would have polled 2% in the ' Brexit Election '.

I expect that right up until Election Day and even then a bit of a bump. I still think it’ll be a case that the Tories will be the biggest party. I’m just hoping Labour have enough to try to get a coalition of some kind. 

Labour have got no chance of winning an election until the situation in Scotland changes.

 

I was only ever hoping for a confidence and supply deal. I still think the Tories will get a majority.

Will it be a big enough majority to push through their shit though?

The Scottish constituencies will be an interesting one. It was originally my expectation that the Tories would be practically wiped out by the SNP but I hear , horrifically , that they may be strengthening by using the Unionist theme as the SNP gets more hell-bent on Indyref2. 

 

My limited interaction with Scots suggest they tend to be sensible people so I am assuming they will see right through Johnson.

Sadly true. If Scotland gain independence we’re stuck with the Tories for a long, long time.

Without Scotland the Union would fall to pieces, I can't see England doing too well on their own with only the Yanks to hold onto for massive favours in return. Politics would definitely change and I doubt the Tory party in its current guise would last too long. When there is nobody left to blame even the gullible will realise they've been had.

Raab is trending on Twitter. In real danger of having his 23,000 majority wiped out by people tactically voting for the Lib Dem candidate.

The difference between him and Shabi Chakrabarti is amazing, she remained totally neutral on the terrorist attacks.

 

He is a disgrace, totally politicising the attack. 

Completely ignoring/disowning the previous 9 years they have been in power. 

His entire strategy is to talk over/ignore and slag Labour not matter the question. 

 

How anyone can trust/respect this man is beyond me.

Marr just isn't having it though. He is proper laying into him. It's easy to see why the cunt won't do Andrew Neil. Shame this isn't prime time.
