Well he played a blinder managing to convince a lot of people that UKIP and Brexit, and then his Brexit party, was not a fundamentally Tory project.

6666 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Being a right wing party is easy as taking a piss. Don't have to work on helping the country at all as long as you capitalise on a culture that is extremely willing to blame everything on something they're ignorant and insecure of. Manipulation and smear campaigns is all you need. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less it's straight. People wanna blame immigrants because they can't get a job. Johnson tells them it's immigrants fault you can't get a job. Johnson also told them brexit will be good for the country. A huge majority of PHD economists and business owners don't. Instead of believing the most knowledgeable people people believed johnson and farage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know mate. I'm just annoyed because I've seen this bullshit happen. I worked as a labourer during the worst part of the recession. A lot of it was done through agencies. I was registered with 17 agencies. I use to ring them every morning to see if they had work. I'd speak to people who would only register with one and wait for them to ring them. A lot of eastern Europeans had the same attitude as me. That was why they got work ahead of English people at times. But yet these same people who never tried very hard to get work blamed immigration for not having a job. Its just annoys me that someone can appeal to people's own lazyness to make something happen that a huge majority of experts don't think is gonna benefit the country. And then he can become priminister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted December 13, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted December 13, 2019 Swinson is irrelevant and has been since Labour backed a second referendum. Labour have really messed this up, more scared of the Lib Dems taking their Remain voters and just expecting the Northern Leave seats to vote for them anyway. The Brexit party has made the difference up there, you can see it already in the results in the North East. The Tories are gaining some votes but only about a quarter of the ones Labour are losing. The rest are going to the Brexit Party. The psychology is fascinating in a way because those that left Labour for Brexit Party dont mind the Tories taking the seat as long as they didn't personally vote for them even though they caused it by voting for BP. Look at the positives, even if it's hard. 1) If you're convinced this is going to a disaster then there can be no ambiguity over where the blame lies and who pays the price at the next election when the Conservatives have such a commanding majority. 2) This disaster for Labour means they must have an absolute overhaul and try to find themselves an electable leader with less baggage. Corbyn was a risk and it hasn't paid off. It is confusing that he was such an asset electorally speaking in 2017 but a big problem now. 3) Farage is on to win no seats. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
