    No TV debates? Hmm. The other parties should probably do one without the Tories there then! Bet they could put a dummy in May's place. Still win a landslide.

    It seems like a good strategic decision for the Tories to call an election now.

    The so-called Opposition are in disarray, the worst I have ever seen them. They are led by an unelectable 1970's mediocrity who seems something of a Cold War communist stooge, and spend all their time squabbling amongst themselves.

    The Lib Dems are pretty irrelevant, they have been abandoned by everyone since they threw their principles out of the window and allied with the conservatives.

    It also might make sense in Scotland - if the Tories do well there, they can say it was a vote against any referendum. If they do badly, they can say we have just had a Brexit referendum and also a general election, and then put any Scottish independence vote on the back burner.

    I'm not especially a May fan, but she does seem to be the more competent of a very uninspiring lot.

    ]Who cares about the word flip flop. People have to be flexible man people have to go with the flow reality is in a constant state of fluid at the and motion and you have to be flexible and go with the flow. If you make certain campaign promises and then 6 months later unseen events force you to sort of recalibrate And restrategize that is not considered flip-flopping. Nothing is in a complete state of vacuum. Nothing is static. People are so concerned about words like flip flop that they don't see the forest for the trees. This is Gandalf's problem. He cannot see the forest for the trees. Gandalf is so focused on the trees that he could be a deer or a bird fluttering and fluttering from one branch to another and not realize that he is actually in an entire Forest.

    May is an opportunist who is snide and sinister. She lies about the reason for calling the general election, she does not care for the poor and vulnerable and she will not go on a national TV debate because she does not want to expose her lead.

    Anyone over 40 should be banned from voting or office. All those rotters let the ship sink. Only Jeremy Corbyn stayed true. The rest of them hate him for it. He holds the portrait up to Dorian Gray's face and he knows it is wretched. They wouldn't even pretend to understand decency. They would burn down Rome so long as they could loot the gold. Of course Corbyn is bizarre to people like this.

    jeriatric corbyn should go fly a fucking kite you have motherfuckinGOT to be kidding

    Against peace in Ireland

    During the 1980s and 1990s, Jeremy Corbyn supported the IRA and opposed the Northern Ireland peace process:

    We refuse to parrot the ritual condemnation of ‘violence’ because we insist on placing responsibility where it lies…. Let our Iron Lady know this: those who live by the sword shall die by it. If she wants violence, then violence she will certainly get.
    If Corbyn wanted to support a unified Ireland through peaceful means he could have supported the SDLP.

    What a flip flopper. You were telling me before how decent Jeremy Corbyn seemed.

    You know what I completely agree with Corbyn's position on Northern Ireland. I don't automatically condemn people fighting for their Independence as terrorists. There was a lot of violence on both sides. The British have a lot of blood on their hands too. Corbyn is someone who tries to negotiate between groups to come to a better understanding of a situation. It's something the king of flip floppers could learn a thing or two about.

    Well we are fucked Thatcher Jr will win there opposition is frankly week and pathetic.
    Best bet is ship Corbyn out on a humanateran trip to show Eskimos how to make fish fingers.
    Maybe he could carry on in his other job making ash trays for motorbikes.

    What an arrogant primeminiter Teresa May is by not going on TV for a public debate! They should put a turnip in the place where she would have been to emabarass her even further. It shows she is running scared.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I don't agree it shows anybody running scared. If you feel that you are in a good lead, why would you go on a televised debate which only brings risk and no opportunity?

    its a cold political calculation in my view, certainly noting to do with being scared
