Conversely, my social media is full of the opposite.

Anecdotal nonsense.

Just heard on the radio that the Tories lost every seat TM visited. Not sure if true if if it is, that says everything.

Is it just me or are some people so fickle, spolit, stubborn and unprincipled that even one visit, sighting or presence can make people vote for a totally diffferent party, so childish?

It's a hallmark of the left, their just bitter that the country has rejected their stupid Marxist polices yet again.

He said, without a shred of intentional irony

Its not over, she's got to get the Queens Speech through Parliament in two weeks. If that doesn't work, and Corbyn can't do it either, its election time!

EDIT: 95% sure it would be with a new leader, BoJo most likely.

Suddenly Conservatives like Ken Clarke become very very important, along with the Scottish Conservatives.

Wonder if 'English Votes for English Laws' might come back to bite the Tories...

You're the hallmark Daily Mail reader. Finished generalising yet?

 

[Eatchipz]

Well being from N.Ireland this is a sad time that DUP can help form a government. This will honestly hurt N.Ireland.

How to reduce your vote share further in one easy step.

Na, they can just U-Turn on that

 

[cheesyboy]

Na, they can just U-Turn on that

Without a majority?

Pretty certain corbyn couldn't do it, the numbers don't add up. So if the tories can't make a minority government work then we'll have another election

It's a hallmark of the left,

No it's not. Grow up and stop generalising.

Edit: Also stop throwing around the Marxist bogeyman, sounds like you've read too many half baked right wing blogs.

If that's how it plays out then realistically what do people here see happening in a GE so soon after?

I find it interesting that a large number of people support spending increases to get out of debt.

 

[XeNoN89]

So all the left wingers have gained by trying to stop the conservatives is a coalition with a party that's even futher right wing?

Well the Torys will have to rip up their current loony manifesto if they want any chance of winning.

There are 2 ways to get out of debt. Cuts or spend to stimulate growth.

They won't care, logical thought escapes them.

New leader will do it, someone who is a natural leader, speaker

It's really not that radial. John Maynard Keynes talked about it almost 100 years ago, and it's been successfully implemented more than once, in multiple countries all around the world.

Difficult to say without knowing who would be leading the Conservatives. I think though it certainly won't be May, and Boris would be a mistake too in my opinion.
