If Corbyn wins

The rest of the article has apparently been written by a first year PPE student... a not very good one at that.

You say that like you're God's intellectual gift to mankind, whereas the reality is that you're a mediocre talentless gammon.

Yeah whatever. I bow to your greater wisdom. Or something...

You mean this bit on page 48?

Page 48 of the Tory Manifesto Will Lead the UK Into Tyranny

How dare they want to maintain 18 as the minimum age!
How dare they want to imrpove democratic process by making constituencies more equal in terms of numbers of voters.
How dare they want to introduce identification to vote to clamp down on election fraud.


That Ardagh fella comes across as a complete melt and is clearly in need of Play Doh and hugs.

Panic not. Just think Diane abbott will be home secretary.

At least she won't slash police numbers and then pretend police numbers dont make any difference to crime stats, and send out vans asking immigrants to go home.

Jesus wept...

They are saying that the BBC is biased in favour of Boris? What a load of horsefeathers. The rest of the article has apparently been written by a first year PPE student... a not very good one at that.

Putting in a strong finish there for COTY2019.

How dare they want to maintain 18 as the minimum age!

If a person can legally have sex, get married, have kids, start work, join the armed forces, etc below the age of 18, we're clearly assuming they're responsible young adults. So why do we deny them the chance to have a say in how their country is run? You can't have it both ways really.

How dare they want to introduce identification to vote to clamp down on election fraud

This does seems perfectly reasonable until you realise that they want to introduce mandatory photo id. Nothing wrong with that, of course, it's a great check; but what isn't said is that several million of the poorest citizens - none of whom are probably ever likely to vote Conservative - have no photo id and can't afford to get one (3.5m have no photo ID at all and 11m don't have a passport or driving licence). So unless a very cheap or free form of acceptable id is introduced, and I don't see any mention of that in the manifesto, this is effectively vote rigging by the back door. Alternatively, it could be a way of forcing through a national ID card system ("of course we want everyone to vote, therefore everyone should have an ID card"), which the UK public have previously made clear they certainly don't want.

To say the gammons on here are gullible is an understatement It's on LInkedIn and it matches my own biased view so it must be correct

Hilarious

You could say just the same about Corbynites and left wingers.

As Machiavelli pointed out, rightly, in so many words, most people believe what they want to be true and they rarely give opposing viewpoints any consideration.

I don't know if it's a doctored picture, may well be sneaky Russkie disinformation to discredit Labour, but the Daily Mail has a picture of the Abbottopotamus wearing two different left shoes!

Dunno. I was against Brexit as I thought it would be bad for the country.
I tried hard to see the other point of view, but 3 years later not a single Brexiter on here or anywhere else has given me a logical reason on how it's going to help the country or themselves.
So I adjusted to the stupidity and have made it so Brexit benefits me - screw the country if it's that stupid.

Yep, completely agree. Corbynites are just as delusional and easily led as the gammons are. 2 sides of the same coin.
