Effectively self-employed Pete. Most of my posts have been done in the morning or evening though. Unusual for me to get the time to actually respond this week as I don't get much time usually. Got loads to do at home but I'm under the weather so I've been taking it easy with good excuse!


Well keep it up mate I do not agree with most of what you say,

BUT

I enjoy reading another persons point of view.

The exit polls ( could be wrong ) suggest that the Conservatives won't have the overall majority they require to push a hard Brexit.

I'm no expert in politics but........  if the exit poll reflects the true result what happens next ?

Big Jezza lights up a cigar on number 10s doorstep tomorrow afternoon and loads of right wingers get told to 'suck it up, snowflake' tomorrow. Saturday's Sun predicts an apocalypse. The NHS is saved, pensioners are warm in winter and kids have food in their bellies at school. Brexit happens still though which was obviously such a massive issue.

Alternatively the poll was wrong and the Tories are still in but there are some glum looking Tories on the telly at the minute.

The Tories attempt to form a government. If they can't agree a coalition with a majority, the next biggest party attempts to get one. If they can't get a coalition, then the Tories get to try and run a minority government which is about as far from strong and stable as you can get. Regardless, May is toast before too long, unless they somehow sneak enough seats to govern with the DUP.

Almost certain there will be another election before long. Oh, gawd.

I tell you what, if it is a hung parliament, the Tory press is going to be even more batshit insane than usual in the coming weeks.

Another fookin election 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

What''s Joy done to deserve being mentioned in that company?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Wow. I have tried not to read a lot of the stuff on here but some of what I had read has made sense on both sides of the arguement but you're suggesting that labour can pay for their manifesto by in effect printing more money? This then creates inflation and in a lot of cases hyperinflation (see Zimbabwe) and who would suffer most, especially in the short term, if the prices shot up? Oh yeah, that's right, the poor. The people who jezza is so concerned about.

The amount of money needed for what Corbyn is promising will at worst spiral the country into hyperinflation (assuming they print more money to pay for it) or at best a long term spiral back into deeper deeper debt eventually resulting in decades of worse austerity than we are currently facing after the last labour government.

Wow, wow, wow.



Have you not heard of Quantitative Easing? That's effectively what that is - printing money (except it's just adding numbers to bank balance sheets) And banks 'print' money every day when they lend you money. How is that not inflationary? It's not backed by gold or even a decent level of cash reserves.

Fecking hell, Zac Goldsmith - a real piece of work as he showed in his Mayoral campaign - just won by 45 votes. Jammy sod.

It looks as though the Tories will just be able to sneak over the line once they set up their own coalition of chaos with the DUP.

Kind of ironic when they've spent so much of the past couple of elections wittering on about coalitions?

They'll have a 1 or 2 seat majority, this being the case. Not a good time to be a Tory whip, I'd have thought.
