I mean it’s probably fair to say if you think any political party will ‘make everything better’ you’re being mugged off. One party mismanages and over spends whenever it is in power and now wants more ridiculous invalid referendums. Corbyn is relying on the gullible young, ignorant and minority vote to be mug enough to let him get away with lying his way into No10 by blocking a democratic decision and promising stuff that he cannot deliver. This is the most self serving, cynical, untrustworthy Labour party ever.

Boris Johnson fled after a visit to Addenbrooke’s hospital today as angry staff, patients and NHS supporters booed. The tory media did not report his reception, just the visit.

I've noticed quite a few Labour supporters on the radio and on forums making excuses already as to why Labour will not win - usually it's down to the wicked Tory press.

I hadn't realised that the Guardian had changed ownership. Seriously just had a quick look and could see nothing about this. Even if it's true so what? At the last election a group of momentum / Labour supporters followed the PM everywhere she went and staged impromptu protests. Hardly a surprise that people in the NHS tend to be Labour supporters.

Load of Lefties conveniently forgetting the Conservative announcement of investing an extra £34 BILLION each year on the NHS.

After Corbyn took over there were rumours going around that Momentum was monitoring the major phone in shows and had their staff call up as "just an ordinary member of the public", it wouldn't surprise me. On a number of occasions I heard callers "I don't take an interest in politics but I hate the Tories" and when challenged on their view suddenly had an encyclopedic knowledge of events and people who I hadn't even heard of, very suspicious for some one who doesn't do politics. It wouldn't surprise me if the other parties do the same maybe Momentum are just better at it.

Try reading this:- A while back I read some analysis that said that government tends to spend more money in the areas they are seen as weak e.g. Labour on Crime and Defence, Tories on the NHS. Of course this can be very subjective and it depends what year you start counting from. I think the report was over something like 50 years.

The labour manifesto of 2017 was the reason for their unexpected success, but on inspection it is far removed from revolution. People paying 3% more tax on incomes over 80k is not even Blairite. So lets have revolution this time please or at least a pretend one. Johnson credible? M it is 'do or die' day, glad you are not 'dead in a ditch'. Do you know that the top 1% of earners pay app 25% of the tax in the uk.

On perusing your post over my face fell a frown one might discover on a Koala Bear in the advanced stages of constipation. From this you will of course conclude that with respect I take an totally alternative viewpoint.I expect these sort of comments to be made by lefties during the campaign.

why would Johnson want to dress like Corbyn ?? To take the P1ss out of Corbyn? He’d look smarter.
