After the sad events in London the Conservatives have suspended campaigning for how long? one would assume the other parties will follow suite.

VNA with your ramblings  you are typical of the reason I will never vote labour, I would sooner vote for the devil himself than support a party with people like you supporting them.

  Absolutely dreadful.  I switched on the telly late last night to catch up with the news, and yes another stupid idiotic horrible murderous attack. 


 
I switched off after a couple of minutes and went back to my book.  The media had switched (BBC and SKY anyway) to their usual hysterical pointless nothing to say rolling news mode.  Just as the so-called terrorists would want.


As Prime Minister one would expect Theresa May to be in discussion, attend the odd meeting, but suspend campaigning?  I hope if she has indeed done so, that the other parties continue their campaigns.  Let’s face it we are just days away from polling day.  Is the UK seriously going to allow these murderous thugs to halt our election?

Steve, I'm not a member of the Labour Party, nor am I a Labour supporter as such. 


I'm a Scottish Nationalist and more importantly a socialist.


  But yes I do want Labour to win this election in England.  And I’d like to see Corbyn form a government, preferably in coalition, though a majority would do.

Well Steve, if you vote for this Tory Government you be getting your wish!!! as in voting for the devil herself.

Umm.  How can I say this.  Errr.  Hmmm.  Oh dear.  I, err, once again, umm, agree with you Lew.

[johnakay]

heres one for the scotts.......

[steve 10562cc]

For the first time in 40 odd years I'm not voting for any of them was going to spoil my ballot paper but they are not worth even that effort . None of them have any interest in carrying out the will of the British people for the benefit of the British people whatever their politics, but serving their own ends and those of  their friend colleges and backers, we just pay their bills.

Can't help you there Steve as I don't know the candidates in your area. 

But if nothing else I suggest - https://www.tactical2017.com/

[steve 10562cc]

It's not about the candidates in my area it's about the whole sorry lot of them. If  there was a monster raving looney party candidate I'd vote for them at least they are honest enough to admit the are complete fruit loops, as for the rest of them they couldn't lie straight in bed.

Tactical voting is voting for someone you don' t want to vote for just to try and stop someone who you don't want to vote for even less winning, instead of voting for the person who will serve the constituency and all its constituents the best.

I’ve always said that the people will get the government that they deserve.

That’s true Slappy, I agree with you.  The candidate is for me the most important factor.  However, if your preferred candidate hasnae got a hope in hell but the Tories have.  To me in that situation there is no real choice but to vote for the candidate most likely to keep the Tories out.  The problem is we have a shit system. 

 
Meanwhile if Ms May wisnae campaigning today, well I must be the bleedin pope.

Politician of all parties run off at the mouth when ever terrorist acts take place, but don't have the will or bottle to take the steps to counteract terrorists acts as it might be seen as racist or against there human rights.

I agree.  Theresa May was certainly mouthing off yesterday.   So is she now going to stop all arms sales to Saudi Arabia, a country that is bombing schools and hospitals in the Yemen.  A country that backs the Salafist jihadist Al Nusra army of conquest in Syria.  Will May stop all arms sales to the Wahhabist undemocratic Saudi State, funders of ISIS and arguably one of the most backwards nasty repressive regimes on this earth.



Will we stop supporting and selling arms to the murderous dictator Abdel Fattah el-Sisi  who arranges mass executions of his opponents who took control of the country in a military coup overthrowing the democratically elected government.


Will May stop selling arms to Israel?



The UK currently sells arms to almost all of the countries which the Foreign Office has listed as human rights abusers.


So, will May now stop arming and supporting terrorism around the world?  As I’ve said many times before – who are the terrorists, who are the real Terrorists Mrs May?

Why oh why has it taken so long for Diane Abbot to get told to send in a sick note !!!!!!

[VNA - BMW Wank]

Not long tae go now.

Go Jezza go!

[celticdog]

Whatever happens get out there and excersise your democratic right to vote!

[VNA - BMW Wank]

[pilninggas]

Not long tae go now.

Go Jezza go!

Yeah, go and don't come back.

[VNA - BMW Wank]

Yeah, go and don't come back.

He's going nowhere.

I looked up the 2015 exit poll, and it was pretty much spot on.

The first 2017 exit polls show a hung parliament. 

If that's right, what a foccing result!  And I would say Mrs May is history.

 

Fingers crossed.
 

[BBROWN1664]

Did the exit polls predict the SNP doing so badly

They did that well that even Alex Salmond lost his seat

[slimwilly]

At least the Scott's have put that sturgeon woman back in her place, there will be no second referendum now.
All the Scott's we come into contact with are tradesmen in the construction industry, privateers and employed, they are out in the many small towns spread around Scotland and felt they had no hope of stopping it, now the election has come good for them.


So now if the politicians can work together we can get a more central school of thought to policies and keep everyone happy

Yes they're all going to have to work together.

  Well, that’s one of the things I predicted, that an SNP victory would, this time round, be presented as a defeat.


I’m not an SNP member nor am I a big SNP supporter, but I can still see that the SNP won a resounding victory in Scotland.


Yes it will be disappointing for them that they didn’t win almost 100% of the seats as they almost did the last time, but nobody in their right mind expected them to.  But they still rule the roost.

At least the Scott's have put that sturgeon woman back in her place, there will be no second referendum now.

 
Presumably by Scott’s you mean Scots or the Scottish.  Firstly, Sturgeon wasn’t standing for election, she is the First Minister, her position in the Scottish Parliament was never in question.  Secondly, the SNP won this Westminster election, they hold the majority Westminster seats in Scotland.   Thirdly, this election was never about an independence referendum in Scotland, it was about who governs the UK.  It was unfortunate timing for the SNP, that having been boxed into a corner by Ms May (who basically told Scotland the shut the foc up over BREXIT, and that no powers would be coming from Brussels to Scotland) that wee Nikki felt she had no other option than to deliver that mandate from the Scottish parliament for a second referendum.  But it was Labour and the Conservatives that were banging on about it in this Westminster election.


 
It was also the Conservatives who previously called Nicola Sturgeon the most dangerous woman in the UK and tried to slur Corbyn by outrageously suggesting that he was an IRA terrorist sympathiser, yes that very same conservative government whom is now propped up by the DUP lead by perhaps the UK’s most incompetent politician (yes even more incompetent that May) Arlene Foster.


 
But ask yourself this…… How stupid does Ms May look going into the BREXIT negotiations.  This 'bloody difficult' woman is now the laughing stock of Europe.


How long do you think May will now last, now that she has thrown away her parliamentary majority?


Who is going to be the next leader of the Tory party?


Brexit has already claimed the scalp of one Tory Prime Minister.  May is the second Prime Minster about to be killed off by BREXIT.


And finally, ask yourself this.  What are the chances of BREXIT ever happening?

[pete786.u]

VNA, dont talk like a pratt of course Brexit will happen and the sooner the better.

[VNA - BMW Wank]

  Like I say, this is the second Prime Minister to be slain on the altar of BREXIT.
The sooner the better?  I think you may be in for a long wait – a very long wait.
Strong and stable leadership indeed.
