You can hardly blame him after the media witch hunt he's had to withstand

The bits in the Tory manifesto about internet legislation were particularly scary.

Edit: oh Eraser made a thread about it.

*pic*

Trump was a product of the Electoral College, Brexit was tight right to the end, Miliband's decision to change the party leadership election rules left Labour wide open to 'entryism'

none of those things apply to the general election. ergo it's bollocks

Im voting labour but hoping the whole front bench are sent to Coventry in the first six months.

That interview was so cringe. A couple of times the façade started to slip. Like the skin suit in Independence Day.

looks like all the voters who defected from Labour to UKIP are defecting back again

I'm thinking Corbyn is about to shit the bed with today's speech:(

Hopefully all the Lib. Dem and Green voters join with Labour given their unlikely to win. Tactical voting looks like the only way to win.

Nothing signals strong and stable like sending Amber Rudd on a live debate instead of your elected leader

Amber Rudd v Diane Abbott

Read through the thread from the beginning. I find this election fascinating.

I think Corbyn is the one true chance at derailing the established system of capitalism, which has tipped so far in favour of the top that the bottom is now beginning to crumble away. You only need to walk around the streets of Manchester to see the sharp rise in homelessness in the last 5 years. Murdock and Co, with their hate campaign on Jezzer have further added fuel to the fire of the Tin Foil Hat brigade and the paranoia has now entered the mainstream. Anti-establishment round 3 as been ignited!

I think he's got a good shot. I hope he's half decent as a PM as he has been as the Challenger (it's a lot harder at the top), and I'm glad he's wearing a decent suit now. Do I think he's "The New Hope", the saviour to fix our nation... not completely. But I think he can be the catalyst of some much needed change which will result in an improved system for everyone.

I picture this whole thing as a really slow moving pendulum. We want the pendulum to rest in the middle, but it's been swinging towards the right for a long long time. It needs someone with some serious left thrust to bring it towards the centre again, and Corbyn and his rapid renationalisation plans is just that. He'll over shoot the mark and we'll end up overly left, and will need someone a little more right to correct that later, but he's what we need today. May will destroy everything if she's elected in.

I've not seen the last half hour, but the first hour involved a huge amount of Conservatives ownage .

but where's Theresa? LOL what a coward

Really is unbelievable, I don't get her logic.

I like Farron's comment at the start

But Lib Dem leader Tim Farron did take a swipe at the Tory leader, saying: "Where do you think Theresa May is tonight?

"Take a look out your window. She might be out there sizing up your house to pay for your social care."

Lol Tim. That was OK for lib dem.

Farron's savage, what a great closing statement. "May didn't bother to show up, so why bother to listen to the Tories closing statement - get a cuppa ready, Bake Off's on next "
