It won't. Just watch the ramping up of propaganda in the next few weeks. We are a country chock full of thick people who will fall for it.

Who are the people you see as not thick voting for?

Flight to Rwanda will no doubt be announced for the end of June - if they think it will take off. Announced for 11 July if they think it won’t.

Yeah crack on. Its a two horse race so any votes away from the tories is a bonus.

May as well vote count bin face than them two.

Well he did gain more votes in the London Mayoral election than Britain First.

Sadly, I don't think he's standing in RW's constituency.

Labour win. Clearly. Possibly give the SNP a fair kicking up there too.

All this about timing relating to holiday periods and favourable inflation figures is simply an attempt at damage limitation.

If it's a Labour majority of which I am certain rather than a rout, it's the best anyone with conservative values can probably hope for. Damage limitation.

We could only hope they don't undo all the sterling work the Tories have done during their time in power 😉

Of course Starmers at a football club - expect a lot of this man of the people thing. In fairness to him he was apparently quite a tidy player and does actually love football, it would play better if he wasn't an Arsenal fan like.

Blimey. That’s quite reasonable. 
 

Someone hacked Bolty’s account?

So you don’t consider yourself in the ‘not thick’ category? Fair enough😄

Labour won't get a landslide, as many people (myself included) haven't really connected with Starmer. Labour will get in power because (a) the Tories are very unpopular right now and (b) Reform UK will split the Tory vote.

Reform UK will take more Tory voters away from the Conservatives than Labour do, but that 'lets' Labour in.

ABC for me right now, Anything But Conservatives.

I kind of get that but why can't some folk warm to Starmer? Too much like a politician?

He doesn't come across as being entirely sincere. He lacks emotion and I think he's more Diet Tory than full-fat Socialist.

[mickbrown]

Why do you need to warm to a politician? Not like you’re ever going to go for a pint with them. 
 

I just want a decent non cunt.  

[Traf]

Call her what you will, but without Angela Rayner by his side, he's not converting anywhere near as many Northern Red Wall defectors back tot he cause as he'd want to.

Diet Tory is much more electable than full-fat socialist though, look at Corbyn.

I will take Starmer over any other party leader at the moment.

I don't disagree with any of that. The much-maligned Tony Blair got it bang on with his just left of centre approach.

[Spider]

Indeed.

I don’t need someone in charge who I’d go for a pint with.

Just someone I don’t want to stamp on until their head becomes a pulpy mash will do for now.

That's the thing 

Reform might take a Lot of the Labour Vote 

last thing we want is a Hung Parliament

It's not about wanting to go for a pint with him.

I want him to come across as honest, decent, sincere etc and I'm not sure he does that to enough people. That's what I meant by people not warming to him, he isn't gaining their trust.

Johnson had absolutely none of those qualities and he got an 80 seat majority
