ICTChris Posted July 4 Author Share Posted July 4 11 hours ago, Salt n Vinegar said: Friday's evening papers... "Sun backing Labour causes collapse of Labour vote in Liverpool." I mean the Sun backed Labour in 1997, which was a far bigger story than any newspaper endorsement today and was only eight years after Hillsborough, and Labour won every constituency bar one in the whole Merseyside region, including every seat in Liverpool itself, most of them with 70% of the vote. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I suppose you can, but if you refuse to participate in the process then no one should pay attention to your whinging and complaining. As a former colleague of mine used to say “if you’re not part of the solution then you’re part of the problem”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a former colleague of mine used to say “if you’re not part of the solution then you’re part of the problem”. Do people gets badges when they vote? How will people know whose whinging and complaining they should pay attention to? My old boss (RIP) used to say “conform or die”. Catchier and more threatening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Voting, even if it's not for Starmer increases the turnout percentage and gives starmer an argument that he has a stronger mandate than he would otherwise have. He'll use that mandate for pure evil. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe more catchy but not relevant to the point under discussion; also not accurate. But deflect away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really take seriously any newspaper that decides to back a political party once it's clear that they're going to win the election. If they do it six months or a year before a scheduled election date, fair enough, but in election week when there's a gap between the parties wider than the gap between Farage's brain cells? It'd be like a football commentator saying in the final 30 seconds of added time that the team 10-0 up will win the match. Nah, ram it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonam Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 In the end I didn't vote at all. This election came at a bad time for me. On holiday, Kashmir. From what I'm reading, looks like Labour winning big time, Lib Dems doing good down South. SNP just need to consolidate somewhat, can't see any real gains. To avoid a thrashing basically. Who would I have voted for. Honestly, in the Highlands, your all gonna hate me, but Lib Dems. I will NEVER forgive Iain Blackford on that ugly, nasty, bullying campaign against Charles Kennedy. For me this time the SNP can get fuxked!!! Sorry lads & lassies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 The Tories and Reform left it a bit late. Only got them yesterday. Obviously focussing on people who can only keep a good rage going for a short time before they forget what they were raging about. Before that the only leaflets I had received were a few from Labour (this is obvs a target seat for them) and one from SNP with a woman with a hat on that looked like she was going fly fishing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely "I've been down to put my BALLOT PAPER WITH cock and balls WRITTEN ON IT into the ballot box."? Life's hard enough for the polling staff without turning the day into an episode of Hammer House of Horror! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
