I thought England had deserted Labour for good. Now they are back from the dead again, but next time they really will finish us off.<br /><br />England cannot afford another Labour government either financially or culturally.<br /><br />I think this was planned. Juncker asked May to call the election ... I smell a rat and vote rigging<br /><br />FrancisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8978395067502712967.post-56582043489627183622017-06-16T01:44:08.796+01:002017-06-16T01:44:08.796+01:00So-called opinion polls don't follow voter sen...So-called opinion polls don't follow voter sentiment, they purport to shape and lead it.

As Tory MP Nigel Evans said:" The only thing missing from the manifesto was compulsory euthanasia for the over seventies. The social care policy absolutely torpedoed our campaign." <br /><br />Enough pensioners did question this attack on their interests, just as postal voting forms were dropping through their letterboxes, and enough of them to make a difference abandoned the Tories. <br /><br />That's how the Conservatives snatched defeat from the jaws of overwhelming victory Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8978395067502712967.post-77192935783590958072017-06-14T20:33:15.417+01:002017-06-14T20:33:15.417+01:00Good analysis.

Most of us probably believed her rationale and expected Labour to be anihilated?

And we are supposed to think this was unintended, a disastrous error?<br /><br />Let's be realistic. It looks more plausibly like subversion and ignoring the expressed will of a majority of the voting population for the purpose of derailing Brexit. The "B"BC after all were furiously spinning the result immediately it became known, as an electoral mandate for "soft Brexit" i.e. no Brexit.<br /><br />Ally this with the handover of control of our diminishing armed forces and we can only guess whose interests the "Government" is purporting to represent. They certainly don't appear to be those of the majority of voters.<br /><br />Russia meanwhile is lambasted in the media in increasingly hysterical terms. I for one am starting to appreciate the possibile attractions of "better Red than dead" - after all, the Russians haven't tried replacing their own population, have they?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
