Isn't it ironic that one of the only available parties to not have a platform during the debates were the DUP. Speaking of which, Both John Major and David Cameron would not form a coalition with the DUP. Why didn't she ask the Lib Dems? Yes they did, along with the other NI parties. I don't rememb...

Zombie Parliament, that sounds fun.
Bring on the next General election , I say.

They would do anything for a bit of power.
The principled ex MP Nick Cleft can testify to that

Three of us picked Peter Sallis, 24 for the death at age 96, but I picked him first, so a 25 point bonus there. STANDINGS AS OF RIGHT NOW: 1. Mark Deeks: 149 2. Jim Bentley: 135 3.

Lots of respect for Mr Fallon for his comments last night about the Tories but after the coalition fiasco, I cannot bring myself to vote Lib Dems. By the way could one of you politics experts explain the situation about if there is a hung parliament and the Tories have a small lead but not an overal...

Is it a bit like a post watershed Crown Court ?

I see you are watching a collection of classic black and white films, interspersed with some modern dross.
I watched All about Eve and Whatever happened to Baby Jane.
I was inspired after watching the excellent Feud on Netflix

Haha, I'm not the only person who's watched Drive recently then... Kingsman: Far less funny than expected. 5/10 Drive: Boring. Gosling pretty. Nice soundtrack. 4/10 It Happened One Night: Unexpectedly funny, charming and enjoyable. 8/10 Fifty Shades Of Grey: TERRIBLE acting. Grey = creepy stalker. ...

I watched it too and enjoyed it but was distracted by how much the stuntman character reminded my of Julian Assange (AKA the Ecuadorian cuckoo clock )

For once, I think Corbyn is right to duck any TV debates if Mrs May is not present as the less you see of him the more chance Labour has of doing well. All other parties would attack Corbyn as they cannot attack May. Its a bit like when England are crap at football and the injured or absent players ...

Kelly Southerton has come up with a novel solution to resetting records.
Just add an extra metre to every distance so all records would be fresh.
Although that doesn't solve field events.

I do hope that the working class will not have to turn to the likes of Ukip to be represented.
The Labour party is such a shambles and only a new, new Labour, type shake up can save it.

I think in NI, what happened in the last Assembly Election will continue. Unionism is on the wane here. The Alliance party in particular are nabbing most of the moderate UUP supporters. DUP may grow slightly in their share of the vote, but only because they'll be subsuming the more conservative UUP...

Maybe we might get the perfect storm of complacent tory voters not bothering to vote and a 99% turn out of labour supporters creating another hung parliament.
Either way we are faced between a cock and a hardface

I think Thanet north and South, Rochester and maybe Gillingham in Kent and Clacton, Basildon and Southend could be targeted by UKip along with a few northern Labour marginals.

This election will be the death knell of the Labour Party as we know it. They will go an SDP/LibDem style break up. The Lib Dems may get a few extra seats from the deluded masses who think we can unBrexit. The one trick pony that is the SNP might be in for a shock and Sinn Fein will win enough seats...
