I am enjoying the dispair from some on here - after 14 years of utter crap, its a delight to see.

Wait until you see the crap that Labour are about to dump on you before you start crowing. They’re keeping very quiet on intentions for a reason but sadly the likes of yourself either can’t, or don’t want to see it. Believe me you will regret it and very quickly.

I think those who thought she might be good enough to be the next Tory leader may now be reveiwing that opinion. She was awful last night. 

Farage certainly "won" the debate, and to be fair, the Scotcher did well also I think. 

I laughed at loud when she mentioned not voting labour because it would lead to higher mortgage prices. 

Mine went up about £500 a month following the Liz and Kwarzi show!

I'm only crowing about how the utter failure about everything people have defended and supported over the last 14 years - its finally like the emperor's new clothes - I hope the laughter is going to ring very loudly for a very long time for anyone who backed this shambolic period in our history.

A lot of those who supported it, will start to distance themselves from it and claim they're all for the Reform Party now (see Bolty...)

English people who pretend they like Celtic/Rangers, and claim it's nothing to do with politics/religion - they need to be castrated.

They'll be moving to South America next.

10 years of record low interest rates, 10 years of record low inflation and a landslide victory in 2019.
It’s what’s gone on since that’s done for the Tories. It’s also done for many other governments around the world.

Absolutely. 

That said, Rishi could have walked it had he been far stronger on the boats.

Opened the door for Farage.

Which has also been the case in plenty of European nations.

I don't disagree that it's the last 5 or 6 years that have been a shitstorm, sadly since they let that fucking idiot (Johnson) run the show, Brexit has also, like it or not, had an impact.

I'm aware that other Governments around the world have also had the same issues, and I'm sure they'll also be ousted. Just because we've had a few issues, it doesn't mean we should forgive how some of is has been handled. The Conservative Party only have themselves to blame for the impact that Farage and Reform are likely to have in the next few weeks. They've been infighting for 6 or 7 years, and that's coming home to roost.

This sounds very serious.

Are they going to unleash dogs or some form of nazi-socialist hit sqaud?

May was elected PM in 2016.

That was after Cameron fucked. 
 

We only had Brexit because Cameron called a referendum to settle in fighting in the party.

The last 5 years have been worse but you can trace it back before that.

Can you give us an example of some of this crap they are about to dump on us?

Most people see that the country is in a mess and it will take a few years to see things genuinely improve. Labour will offer a change in direction with sensible policies that will help us all and not just the wealthy. This election is about removing the Tories and their politics of lies and division and taking the country in a positive direction.

Being in hock to 'their union paymasters!'

I honestly think some believe those who are not are voting Labour think those that are believe its going to be milk and honey from here on in, there's going to be some successes and some failures. But personally I want a government that seems comitted to actual public service, not in-fighting or selfish leadership battles or leading the country down ruinous ideological dead ends for personal victories.

Well she thinks Sunak is Muslim. 
 

We’ll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume she’s just a bit thick and doesn’t  just think they all look the same.

Nah. So called illegal immigration is a drop in the ocean compared to legal migration. That is what Farage now shouts about and is blaming for all our ills.

Indeed - its because some people are obessed by that one issue and think its the problem for every ill, despite all evidence to the contrary {thats also not the same as saying there isn't an issue with illegal immigration} 

Anyway, the big four issues for the UK electorate remain pretty much the same:

• the cost of living (93%)
• the NHS (89%)
• the economy (76%)
• climate change and the environment (59%)

Immigration actually sits behind crime, housing and also industrial action.

All of which doesn't make a great platform if you have been in government for 14 years.
