It would be completely unheard of because he wouldn't have to even show up in Parliament (which he would love cos zero scrutiny). But apparently there's nothing stopping them from just letting him be PM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4949 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) It concerns me that these small bits of good news are coming from Tory insiders. I reckon they're just getting their vote out. And we'll end up mystefied that they have a 30 seat majority. I mean how would they know the Lib Dems vote has collapsed?

Monkeys Fist 38586 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 A little tale to illustrate the fucking horror of what Tory cuntery does to ordinary people. Some of you might recall that Mrs. Fist works for a large housing group in sunderland, she came home last week more angry than I’ve seen her in a long time. She looks after “ vulnerable young adult tenants 25yrs and under”, which runs the full gamut from kids too old for the care system, refugees, abuse victims… you get the picture. She had a new client referred to her who was a single mother of 24 with a 4yr son. She’s under threat of eviction because of rent arrears, but, here’s the kicker, she’s not some “benefit scrounger” (for want of a better phrase), but works part-time, 4 days a week, in a call centre- decent young lass but struggling. She has to pay for childcare to have her son looked after whilst she’s at work, and is on the bones of her arse. She gets a bare minimum Universal Credit. When Mrs. Fist went to see her, the little lad came up to her when his Mam was in the kitchen and whispers “ Santa can’t come this year”. FFS! We’ve put together a bag of presents for him, which Mrs. F could get in trouble for from work, because cunts, but it’s by no means guaranteed that she won’t be booted out in the New Year. Fucking shite. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bookies have no inside track, no relevant information, nothing to use to help them set bets for elections other than the betting trends themselves. Don't worry about what the bookies are saying.

Rayvin 4949 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) Aye that's depressing as fuck MF. Would like to see any Tory voters justify their vote against it tbh.

Good on you for trying to make a difference at a personal level (and it will make a difference, even if, as you say, it doesn't fix anything). None of us can do much about the top-down stuff, but the least we can do is all try and be more decent within the sphere of what we can influence. We're a very well-off country. You wouldn't fucking know it, would you? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
