General Election - Thursday June 8th 2023

[newyddion]

That’s the word on the street..

The Conservatives
Looking for a bit of post Coronation feel good factor with Rishi Sunak still polling higher than Starmer. He will be ‘Delivering For You’ 2% interest rates leading up to the election, they are expected to take a hit but it’s very much damage limitation with some MPs being readied to move to safer seats.
Big on immigration control, mathematics in schools

SNP are taking a hit with Labour and Conservative looking to take up the slack equally.

The Labour Party
‘Building a Better Britain’ very much looking to swallow up the centre ground and the fence sitters. Pure magnolia is the order of the day. Appealing to Lib Dems more than the Greens.. five missions delivered by the big voices in the party including Wes Streeting and Yvette Cooper.

The Liberal Democrats
‘For a Fair Deal’ apparently looking to take on the Conservatives directly on their turf by taping into voter anger over sewerage.. dead in the water, a dozen seats if they’re lucky.

The Green Party
‘For a fairer greener country’ open to the idea of Jeremy Corbyn joining the eco-socialists and doubling their presence in the House of Commons.

Reform UK
‘Reform is Essential’
‘Let’s make Britain Great’
Pints and Pies populist guff aimed at former Red Wall seats.. doing the Lib Dems job of splitting the vote.

An early election will mean voter ID still not embedded - outcome of local elections will be an indicator

 

[Richyboro]

No chance.....tories will need some tax revenue first to splash out and need inflation to go down, They'll hang on as long as possible.

 

[Nero]

Not a chance. The Tories know they’d be booted out. They’re holding hoping their diversion techniques about boat and evil immigration is enough to convince just the right amount of voting people.

I hope that Starmer slips over on a discarded donkey jacket and then gets trampled by an alpaca and run over by a cyclist.

Whatever it is they’ll pass it off as a win.

Just the name of the street that the word is on would be fine. I could go there and read the word on the street myself if you gave me that info.

My old bass player said that when he first heard that song he thought that it was called 'Where the Sheets Have No Name' and that he thought that Bonio was singing it directly to him, because his sheets didn't have any names either.
