    June Election: Labour's policies to inspire the electorate

    from the Grauniad...

    Labour are preparing to win the June 8th Election with a number of electorate inspiring new policies including:

    However, John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, said he believed Labour would form the next government after an election that people felt was unnecessary.

    He said there would be a number of radical policies to inspire the electorate, including a fairer tax system that meant big corporations and the rich defined as those earning more than £70,000-£80,000 a year – contribute more.

    I guess this means Labour have drawn a line and want to alienate anybody earning over 70,000 a year

          The mass delusion will make the reality of the 9th June all the more pitiful.

            Well that will really pull the rug out from under their own feet won't it? Because as any schoolboy knows, that is the demographic that has always constituted their core vote.

                Luckily for them most of Londoners who earn that amount are in constituencies with Labour majorities where those that do either can't vote or work for the NHS/government.

                  Just watching Corbyn in Parliament. Oh dear. This is going to be a bloodbath.

                  After going on about "A Brexit that allows us to invest in the future" and other such nonsense, a Tory stood up and said "Point of Order Mr Speaker: Is that it?".

                  Which got a huge laugh.

                    I'm listening to Labour voters moaning.

                    Though some are going to vote for May.
