This has been ridiculously off topic for ages, I'll clean it up and re-open when I get a chance.
Assuming I don't forget.
 
A shout out to people begging for votes door to door: ensure your smartphone/tablet or that of your local organisation has plenty of data and charge (don't need much tbf), and start signing up any lost souls up to vote alongside your usual routine. If you are still not invovled - GET OFF YOUR HINDQUARTERS - lest you learn what 'I'll Slough your Winchester' really means! Keyboard-trashing on social media with second-rate memes won't do.

As with our broadband and utilities discussion, don't assume people have access to the internet (the more rural, the less shocking this sounds); are able to do this independently; will remember to do it later; know how to register (yes, even by form); have registered; or voted in the locals. Don't assume. Just do it! If there are any takers for postal voting, which is popular enough with our perennial lack of e-voting, explain what will happen re confirmation from the council, polling card and voting pack. In fact, don't assume people have ever voted!

For extra shill points, slip the following link - https://www.tactical2017.com/ - to anyone not quite buying strong and stable leadership from Theresa and the Carpetbaggers (The 'hated' Peter Hitchens explains - trolls libertarianism, politics and goes a touch scorza ;)). Defend homebase; help out in swing seats, if you can. Should your local party prove lethargic, kick it and rant and rave until they wake up! :p

To put you off your snack of choice even more, here's Owen Jones with his extremist hashtags appealing on Labour's behalf:


Also - for all that is literate - return Vincy to parliament:


(The Hard Brexit; The Extreme Brexit - he's got all the best words!) Anyone joining the Phoenix of Liberty on this tour is welcome to smell Tim's spaniel to their heart's content, but I wouldn't recommend it!

Don't kick the wrong Tories, though, we will need their cooperation in not imploding into a nation of digital Peeping Toms, Fox's ordnance for upstart tyrants, 'special' deals and broken Brexits. I don't want to taste arsenic in my chicken; do you? *GabbatekMeme.jpg*:D

Have fun, troll UKIP and take plenty of water. :)

And so on for every other party that'll dent the Empress of the Gurn's majority. Spread the word!

Now, sling your mud heathens, I'm Teflon Man! :p :D
 
Someone paste in the great chaos 40k pictures I had from the other thread.
On ipad pasting is awful.
Coalition of chaos sounds great, khorne all the way, blood for the blood God!
 
You present a convincing argument. The appeals to emotion in lieu of facts, the complete lack of any form of policy or future planning is amazingly mind blowing and cannot be ignored.
 
Check the videos your going to post as that one had lots of swearing-schizo

But Corbyn wouldn't use nuclear weapons, so I'm not voting Labour!:mad:

The Tory case for government in a nutshell. Your point?

Still, if the facts so greatly favour your preferred fetish for mildly amusing older women, then - by all means - stop wearing your pants through on the internet, go out there and make your case.

Even better, get May to meet some actual punters and make HER case against the opposition and for the country in a proper debate! Indeed, someone who runs from Corbyn is in no shape or form fit to meet Merkel and Macron across the table.

Anyone registering voters is welcome, though! :D

As to my rainbow brethren:

Haha love it when Owen Jones comes out from the wood work. He's got to be worth a good million or so (a real man of the people), wonder how much he has given?
 
There really is no other logical choice in my mind in this election other than Tory.

You've got the anti-democracy party, the finished party, the Marxist party and the does at least some of what it promises party.

How you could vote for anyone else is beyond me.

I've never understood this attitude that as soon as you aquire wealth or status through success you can no longer have the socialist/left/'man of the people' views you had before

That's just your 'I'm alright jack' attitude projecting on to everyone else imo

Because these type of people tend to fall into the trap of hypocrisy such as lily allen and russell brand
 
I don't think its hypocritical to call for the country as a whole to do more about a certain issue while not also giving every spare penny you have over to that cause. It's no more hypocritical than the people spouting that "charity begins at home" and highlighting that we have homeless veterans would be for not personally doing anything about that either.

The problem with most champagne Socialists is hypocrisy. They could do much with the resources they amass, but they tend not to, instead advocating more taxes for people with less means than they have.

At a more extreme level, they actively rail against the rich while being a member of it, as if their accumulation of wealth is somehow different from the evil capitalists with the bowler hats and wax moustaches they like to pretend represent the wealthy.

Corbyn, for example, is a millionaire, from a privileged background who has never done a real job in his long life, he is an educational failure despite going having huge advantage there, and now his aim is to ensure that others don't have the same advantages he did, by punishing the successful, and rewarding failure.

But that's a function of reality not ideology....so what you are trying to say is you can't benefit from the system but still argue against it unless you give away all your riches, and thus influence

Well, yes, accumulation of wealth can be aquired and utilised in ideologically opposed ways....look at how Branson and Musk treat their employees to Mike Ashley or Phillip Green
 
I don't understand why anyone earning under 100k a year would vote for the Tories. Their sole aim is to increase the wealth and power of the richest individuals. The majority of the country have seen a decline in living standards. We have seen sky rocketing housing costs, flat line wage growth, poorer NHS, poorer schools, huge increases in national debt, yet everyone believes the spin.
