On the plus side, Corbyn will be out on his arse on June 9th meaning we may finally get a decent opposition.
This could be the first election where the Opposition don't want a TV debate.

I know you said "guy". My point is, Theresa Maybe is hardly a woman of principle. Such a shame this will be the easiest election in a lifetime and she'll feel vindicated. Weakest PM since Major, largest majority since Maggie.

I hope The Colonel's Welsh Independence Party can count on everybody's vote?

I doubt there's any enthusiasm from voters who are already suffering from election fatigue. Labour will be relieved if they only lose 30 seats.

I didn't explain myself well, I don't disagree with you.
I was just amazed that this ridiculous comment on the radio turned out to be a politician not a member of the public!.

We have elections on May 4th as well. It's actually the most important General election for a long time but it's like a World Cup final between France and Tahiti.
I've got a feeling that people are already bored of the contest and the only thing that could make it interesting is a low turnout.

Oh God! Hopefully he's in a marginal but, knowing Corbyn, he's likely to be shadow-Brexit secretary.

The worst scenario here is a hung parliament leading us into brexit

It is actually quite a sensible position for Labour to try and take. They are ****ed either way. Remember Tories winning an election based on them scaring English voters into thinking that the SNP would be in charge of a Labour/SNP coalition? Lying works.

Unlikely that May will either, it isn't her strong suit. Could just be Tiny Tim and whoever happens to be in charge of UKIP by then going at it over the EU

Potential for a rainbow coalition making Brexit even more difficult.

This could be quite big for Plaid, especially with it being called now meaning that Wales has 40 seats, not the 29 Wales would have in 2020, Murdoch's anti-Labour machine will be in full flow and this could benefit Plaid
Unless the Colonel's Welsh Independence Party gets going, that is :hehe:

An early election of course will prevent any by-elections forced by the Tory election expenses scandal.....

It is isn't that much of a scandal given Labour and the Lib Dems have been fined for it in the recent past.
Election misspending is part of the game, in the past anyway. It won't lead to the downfall of the tores however much labour hope for it.

Neither was the cup final either.
Fowler was left out.
