    None of their England internationals are back playing for them yet though. That's the team with a few permutations, they've been putting up for the premiership on a weekly basis.

        Yes and now a vote for one is seen as a vote for the other, traditional Tories are restless about the whole concept.

          OK, and you think they will do what? remember in order for your theory to work it needs to be:

          No of Brexit Party Voters who now Vote Tory <<< No of traditional Tory voters who now either abstain or Vote some other party (presumably mostly LibDem)

            I was under the distinct impression that he pulled out of every seat that the Tories won in 2017. Boris needs to win more than that if he's going to have a majority. Did I miss something?

              I'm certain a Lib Lab SNP coalition would have strolled to a sound majority if they had formed any sort of coherent remain coalition. Perhaps if they'd fought the election on broad principles and the promise of two referendums on on brexit and another on STV PR followed by another GE in two years. Anything reasonable that gives people an option to pull back from the abyss would do but instead they are handing it to Cummings on a plate.

              It is profoundly depressing to watch.

                They already hold all the seats that Farage has withdrawn from, at best it allows them to maintain their non-majority.

                Trust me Farage will fuck this up for both of them if given enough rope.

                  Enough of this shite .Time for a bad Friday story.

                  One day, Einstein has to speak at an important science conference. On the way there, he tells his driver that looks a bit like him:
                  "I'm sick of all these conferences. I always say the same things over and over!"
                  The driver agrees: "You're right. As your driver, I attended all of them, and even though I don't know anything about science, I could give the conference in your place."
                  "That's a great idea!" says Einstein. "Let's switch places then!"
                  So they switch clothes and as soon as they arrive, the driver dressed as Einstein goes on stage and starts giving the usual speech, while the real Einstein, dressed as the car driver, attends it.
                  But in the crowd, there is one scientist who wants to impress everyone and thinks of a very difficult question to ask Einstein, hoping he won't be able to respond. So this guy stands up and interrupts the conference by posing his very difficult question. The whole room goes silent, holding their breath, waiting for the response.
                  The driver looks at him, dead in the eye, and says :
                  "Sir, your question is so easy to answer that I'm going to let my driver reply to it for me."

                    They will only be running paper candidates anywhere they can't pull enough labour votes away to give the Tory a chance.

                    This is a carefully planned and well executed coup by Cummings and Putin.

                    There is still a chance it won't be enough but unless the remain side get their shit together and stop pretending that there is anything else than Brexit to fight for its a hopeless cause.

Blaming things on Putin (I thought Xi was the bad guy of the moment to blame everything on?), allows people too much of a comforting thought that they aren't living in a country of idiots. Yet that is most certainly the case in the US and the UK.

                          HH disappears for two months prior to impeachment and the UK GE.

                          Then mysteriously reappears.

                          Coincidence?

                          I think not!

                                                          gloucester played great in the 1st half, and just got bullied and man handled in the 2nd. they barely touched the ball, and you're right, when they did, they weren't sure what to do.
                                                          The speed of Toulouse was just too much.

                                                          Pretty rare to see a French side coming from behind and winning away from home in this competition.

                                                              Not looking good on balance, but there are still 4 weeks to go, debates, manifesto's (though Tories may not bother with a manifesto apparently).

                                                                                    I think just describing them as inappropriate isn’t enough, we should say what they were: misogynistic towards women, racist towards Travellers and classist, and also body shaming. I don’t think they are becoming of someone who is Fianna Fáil’s equality spokesperson.

                                                                                    I’m not sure what it says about Fianna Fail’s commitment to equality.
