2017 General Election thread

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

Being reported that there will be no Queen's Speech next year and whatever is in this year's will last 2 years.
Because Cameron's fixed term policy stipulates that a no confidence vote needs 2/3 of MPs, this means the only opportunity to get rid of May is at the vote on the forthcoming Queen's Speech or by her own party calling on her to resign.
She is very aware that her popularity has plummeted, that linking up with the DUP is very unpopular, and that the manifesto that was presented to the public is largely not going to feature in the Queen's Speech.
Removing any effective yearly right to validate her position is an abuse of democracy.

She knows many are predicting her days are numbered so she is using any tool available to dig in.

On a more cynical note I see Diane Abbot as been restored as shadow home secretary what a huge surprise that is. She seems to have recovered well now the election is over.

I rather not have Corbyn in, as he is far too dangerous to be in charge of your country, he remind me of our country in Communist era, its was the worst period in our history until we recovered in earlier 1990's.

That's just hysterical nonsense.

Just an interesting article which could be a factor, when we all have to go through this again. :smile:

That's just hysterical nonsense.

Dismiss the guy who has actually lived under communist rule. Check.

Communist/Socialist acolytes like this post. Check.

Lack of any substantive argument. Check.

White sharia. Check soon.

The guy lives in Poland and not in the UK so really can't comment on this country no better than I can on Poland. Check.

I'm no communist, and like many of your countries citizens, you can't distinguish between communism and socialism. Check.

White Sharia......extreme right-wing paranoia. Check.

Didn't know you could buy the Daily Mail in the US, but then you've got Fox "news".

You clearly don't know what White Sharia means. You should look into it.

If you can define the difference between socialism and communism, you win a cookie.

I don't read the Mail very often and only watch Tucker on Fox News. But you seem to have a very antiquated view of how people source their news. I'll take how people might read the Mail for 200 Alex. What is the internet?

A simple Google Seach will detail the differences between the two systems.....the fact that you question how people source their news means that your truly should think twice about commenting on goings on in a country that you no longer call home, nor even understand now the California sun has obviously baked your brain. The Sun & The Mail are still highly read and taken as verbatim in the UK - not to mention their poisonous websites and existence on social media.

I have no idea who this Tucker is, I take it he's not Todd Carty....I doubt it as Benny was black and I doubt that's allowed on Fox.

So use Google? That's your answer? What next, look on Wikipedia? Are you actually a real person because I've seen bots that reply like this.

So use Jewgle? That's your answer? What next, look on Wikipedia? Are you actually a real person because I've seen bots that reply like this.

Do we have some kind of troll quota? Do the WWW Police check on how many trolls are posting per month and if any forum isn't taking their share then they supply you with a new one? It's fair I guess but damn it's tedious.

What is the definition of a troll? Anyone who doesn't think that anybody to the right of Comrade Corbyn is literally Hitler?

I see you've retracted your racist text. Ooh, so big and brave.

Keyboard warrior question's other poster's bravery. Oh the delicious irony.

I gladly stand by my original post but I note that this forum explicitly bans 'racist' posts so I changed it. I am happy to play by the rules.
