Just had a thought that mildly concerned me.

Tories win tiny majority. May resigns.

Who gets to be the new PM? Rudd? Surely Gove and Johnson would keep their noses out?

Why are people going to be annoyed if Corbyn wins?

May wants to sell off Hospital land and privatise the NHS. She will cut off any hospital who doesn't get with the program from public funds so budgets will be squeezed until they fall in line. She will sell it off cheap and use the £8bn public money she claims is going to be put into the NHS to offer cash incentives to developers.

Tories are systematically stripping the country of assets and people don't give a **** for some reason.

Head in the sand, brexit at all costs, dont care.

Because the working class think of it as a badge of honour voting for the Tories, despite the fact the party they are voting for hates them.

Most believe that the NHS is at breaking points due to 'all those bloody foreigners' and that the Tory will suddenly stop this from happening with new immigration laws etc even though they've failed to meet any target they've set themselves over the last 7 years.

Then there's the I don't use the NHS it doesn't affect me etc.

I don't see Jeremy resigning. Not unless there's someone with less baggage lined up to take his place. Win or lose, the Labour campaign team are going to see this election as a success.

Compared to 2005, 2010, and 2015, the part has energy. It's enthusiastic about itself. Ed Miliband almost seemed ashamed to be a Labour politician at times.

New Labour is dead, long live Old Labour. Who says going back to the 60's is a bad thing, right?

It's not quite that simple though, I don't think many people have much faith in labour saving the NHS from privatisation either considering Blair set the ball rolling, yes we all know he was a Tory in disguise but it's still fresh in the older generations memory.
 
Irrespective of the outcome of the election, I would rather have a Labour party that presented a genuine alternative to the Conservatives in terms of policy, rather than similar policies dressed up by a different management consultant that New Labour gave us.
 
If labour lose (which I sincerely hope they will) and if Jezzer then resigns, do you think Diane Abbott will take over as leader? That would be fun.

LOL I very much doubt they'd let that happen but I bloody well hope so. That would be incredible for comedy value

They'd need to vote on it first, and then someone would need to add all the numbers up for Diane, in case she gets '2 million' out of '65' or something.
 
I've not seen a proper decent argument for either side that hasn't had some childish name calling or immature cartoon attached to it.

For every May is a loon there is a Corbyn's a pillock argument.
