I thought Nicola Sturgeon was great.

Swinson says that “get Brexit done” is just Johnson’s latest lie. The Lib Dems are the only party that can stop Boris Johnson, she says.

Fuck me.

Oh... haha, yeah. I think she actually said that they’re the only ones that can stop them in a number of seats.

I don't think I've seen her not being good. Labour really need to get her on side.

She always is to be fair. You wouldn't come home to her a tenner short in your wages.

She is, it’s all part of the game.

 

The more votes they get the more collateral they have when/if they go in to negotiations to form a coalition if, and when, the public finally see through Boris, same with Swinson and the rest. They know their only chance of significant input is to increase vote share and seats to leverage against labour. 
 

Shame as I don’t see Corbyn doing anywhere near enough to get enough seats to be in a position to form a coalition.

Wonder why Corbyn didn't turn up tonight. Would have been another chance to hammer home the coward shouts at the fat yeti.

Her name's Swinson, ffs. In any case he got fucked up on Schnapps at a 'Jews are cunts' meeting on Saturday night.

The Andrew Neil show on at 7:30, listings not saying who is on. Anyone have any idea? Wouldn't surprise me if the lying tory piece of shit said he would do it but they can't advertise it so he gets a smaller audience.

He should stick a tub of lard on a chair and ask it questions.

It was on my virgin BBC one guide too. Some other random shit was on though.

Why didn't the PM get heckled in Southampton?

 

It’s an old story but I’ll tell it anyway.

 

During the 1964 general election campaign Harold Wilson was trumpeting his support for the navy at a vast public meeting in the dockyard town of Chatham.

 

“And why am I saying all this?" he asked rhetorically. "Because you're in Chatham!” shouted a voice from the crowd.

 

A famously fine heckle from an era where prime ministers had to contend with the electorate face to face. They still do from behind their TV studio podiums of course but the public meeting and town centre walkabout has mostly gone.

 

We’re 10 days from polling day and from my perch in the Tory campaign I’ve yet to hear a heckle. Not one.

 

Today Boris Johnson turned up at a deserted cruise liner terminal at Southampton docks to plug his party’s policies for border control after Brexit.

 

He chugged around the quiet port in a boat and did a quick television interview on his response to Friday’s terror attack before heading off to a rally for Tory activists this evening.

The PM was in and out before the city’s voters twigged he was there. It’s the same wherever Mr Johnson goes.

 

The Conservative campaign feels efficient, focused and sterile. Clips for broadcasters are provided, Tory social media content is recorded and pictures of the prime minister in different bits of Britain are taken that will appear online and in tomorrow’s newspapers.

 

But spontaneous encounters between the PM and the general public hardly ever happen.

It’s now impossible to imagine Boris Johnson copying John Major’s 1992 campaign and plunging into the crowd to argue his case.

 

During the 2016 referendum, Mr Johnson seemed to relish the chaotic cut and thrust of town to town campaigning but there’s none of that now.

 

The Tory battle bus still ploughs up and down the country’s motorways carrying the media from one event to the next but it feels the real electioneering is happening somewhere else.

So tonights final debate between Johnson and Corbyn is made up of an audience in Maidstone which is a Tory stronghold and voted Leave. I'm sure we get get an impartial set of questions and reactions.

It's largely pointless anyway, the focus will be on Corbyn burning jews to death in his back garden. 

 

On that topic, do Jews not look across Europe at the rise of the far right, and the attacks on Jews rising rapidly, and think "oooh fuck, I hope we don't have a far right government here"?

 

Because they should.  It's just a matter of time before the beast rises again, like the days of Moseley and Lord Rothmere and the old Tories who wanted to join forces with Hitler. 

 

There were swastikas drawn on a bunch of jewish graves in France this week, for example.
