We really should have a General Election.

Re: We really should have a General Election.

We do not operate a presidential system in the UK - we operate a parliamentary system whereby parliament chooses the prime minister. I would have thought you would have known that. From your post it would appear you don't understand the basics on how our democracy functions.

Just to be clear, the electorate choose Parliament, and Parliament chooses the PM - the leader who controls the House. That's the way it has always been.

Despite Truss being a busted flush, I can't see the Tories calling a GE as quite a few know they will lose their seats.

Even if I accept your lecture, which I don’t (in reality, a good proportion of the electorate, possibly.a majority, vote for a leader or a party) every change of leader we’ve seen since 2016 has come with changes of policy for the Governing party and Parliament. I’d say that with the exception of Cameron to May, the change of leader has come with fundamentally different policies with only Johnson’s in 2019 being validated by an election win. Since Johnson left a few months ago, Truss has come in with a completely different set of policies from her predecessor. Whether you accept that Hunt is now the de facto PM or not, it is, once again, a complete change of approach from the governing party that we’re seeing - a change which, again, bears little relationship to the manifesto Johnson presented. The public did not vote for the discredited trickle down policies presented by Truss or more austerity, as provided by Hunt, we should have the chance to vote on it.

Re: We really should have a General Election.

Well the longer the Tories are in charge the longer they have to con the voters

I personally will be emigrating to porthcawl if the country votes this lot in after all the lies and backtracking

It wouldn't surprise me though . There are a lot of thick voters in the UK .

Little doubt at the moment that Labour wouldn’t win an election, which is quite incredible after their destruction at the last election.
With a new Tory in charge though, going for the centre vote I reckon it’s their turn to do nothing for a few years then implode after 8/10/12 years…..nothing really changes. Im still amazed that people over the age of 50 think it will…..bizarre

Holy shit... ��
Just incase anyone doesn't know lardy is completely paranoid and probably suspects there is literal nazis under his bed.
Hyperborean was the term the ancient Greeks used to describe a mythical people of the North. I'm part Greek and from the North, so that's that lardy fallacy debunked.

Brackets are anti semetic now are they? Wow I'm lost for words, (((really)))

You're doing a good job of defending international finance lardy, keep it up, they'll be most proud of you. From their super yachts in Monaco.

I distinctly recall Lardy once stating that the covid vaccine was the beginning of the end……nowt queer as folk as they say

He also said the Steele dossier was verified and 100% true

Re: We really should have a General Election.

Did they fall for the nonsense, or did you? Who knows.

EU aid is a tiny proportion of what is spent by central government in the same areas. There is an argument it achieved very little of substance and the UK paid far more into the EU than it received, so there is a strong argument that it was a very inefficient way to spend and receive money.

Just different opinions. No one side was thick and the other enlightened. To think such a simplistic thing would likely put someone in the former of those camps anyway.

Here he goes again , supporting the tory filth

It's like talking to a broken clock

Re: We really should have a General Election.

Farage wasn't a Tory, How did he con voters?
I have my own reasons for disliking Boris and have long been disillusioned with the current political landscape/setup. Boris isn't Conservative enough for me. Why was Boris a bad PM for you? A few parties at number 10 that he barely attended?
Liz Truss's economic policy may well prove the correct call in the medium term, i think you're guilty of letting international (((bankers))) tell you who is electable.

You daft tory twat

There clearly isn't any doubt that the Tories would get battered at the moment

30 points behind ?

So it's just a coincidence that you used it with international bankers? Quite a typo that! If you're lucky, someone will be dumb enough to believe it.

Why are you patrolling message boards defending the rich & powerful lardy?

That's right, I did. I said it in reply to you back in Sep 2020, when you said the coming vaccines would mean things back to normal after Christmas and you'd " be happy to sit in for 3 months if it was nailed on this would end once and for all."

I said the vaccines wouldn't be the end, just the beginning of the end - and it would "take a painfully long time before we can say it's ended once and for all"

Two years on and who was closer, would you say?

You must be the only man over 40 who still believes that voting makes a difference. Labour/Tory what a shit show. Why aren't you up in arms that international bankers have effectively circumvented the democratic process and handicapped Truss and smeared Corbyn to death.
