Election Special 4: The Conservatives.

Three days to go Take nothing for granted and vote to make sure this lot aren't partying on Friday #ToryWipeout2024 #GeneralElection2024

JUST BEEN LEAKED NOTE BY HEAD OF TORY CAMPAIGN (the one standing in for the one on leave of absence courtesy of William Hill) MEMO ALL CANDIDATES … THE REALITY. 1. We cannot campaign on our record because nothing has improved since we took office. 2. The biggest change we made last Parliament was Brexit and we can’t campaign on that because the people who hated it hate it more and the people who liked it know we have ballsed it up. 3. We can’t campaign on our leaders because we have had five in eight years which suggests none of them were very good. 4. We can’t campaign on Labour being a risk to security and the economy because nobody can do worse than we have and anyway people seem to think @Keir_Starmer is pretty decent and he is for sure not Corbyn. 5. So LADS, all we have left is this … behave like we have lost, it’s all over bar the shouting, towel thrown in, and hope to God millions of people don’t bother to vote us out because they think somebody else will do it. I know it’s desperate and a bit anti-democratic but needs must. We’re shit and we know we are and so this is it!!! Fuck everything up. Crash the car. Make ourselves look even more unelectable and useless at campaigns. Willie Whitelaw used to talk about travelling the country stirring up apathy. That is all we have left. Do it. Talk up supermajority. I know it is meaningless but it is the only way to stop the superdefeat we all know we deserve. Cheers. Btw we’re having Sunday drinks 1pm. BYOB 🍾 🥂 ps new slogan. STAY AT HOME. DON’T VOTE. KEEP THE TORIES haha!!

I don’t think you’re in a position to pass judgement on who is and isn’t fit to be PM.

Looking forward to the beginning of a new chapter tomorrow.

"If Labour win this time, they'll change the rules so they're in power for a very long time," says Rishi Sunak, whose government has - Rejigged electoral systems - Changed seat boundaries - Introduced Voter ID - Raised election spending limits - Extended voting overseas

Remember 1. There is no money because the Tories crashed the economy 2. They made dozens of promises at the last election which they failed to keep. 3. Sunak promised to stop the boats, cut the waiting lists. He’s failed. 4. Tories swore they’d not increase VAT. They did.

After 14 years the Tories leave 🧑‍⚕️ NHS worse 💧 rivers and beaches worse 🚆 railways worse 💴 economy worse 🏠 mortgages higher 💵 taxes higher 💂 Army smaller 👩‍⚖️ court waits longer 🇬🇧 UK reputation weaker -than they found them. It’s time for change. It’s time for Labour 🌹

Turning off the debate and watching Schitts Creek instead seems quite apt. #ITVDebate #Sunakered

This isn’t about Julie Etchingham being a weak moderator. It’s about Sunak thinking it’s fine to talk over and ignore women who challenge him. He gets this way consistently with women in positions of power. Be it on committees, in interviews or debates. #ITVDebate

It’s very, very clear.

Sunak is awful; Shouty shouty, speaking over everyone, no answers, dancing around everything… pathetic bully. #ITVDebate

Sunak already spouting lies and bullshit, and we’re only on the opening statement #ITVDebate

@jake74 Need to find me a suitable bundle now... 👀

Still worth buying a Switch, even with the new one due next year?

Word of the day is ‘absquatulate’ (19th century): to leave in a hurry.
