And as for Corbyn's cheerleaders on this forum, shouldn't have backed this horse or should I say tired old nag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Conservatives are not "extreme right wing" Conservatives have been in power for a good few years now and NHS and benefits are still there for you . No one will take your dole and free hospital treatment from you , no need for you to worry about not getting money for nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a lifelong Labor Party supporter and remainer, I'never made any bones about Corbyn's negative effect on the Labour Party, for me, the one good thing about the result is that Corbyn will be kicked into the long grass. Hopefully Momentum will go the same way. Labour has 5 years to carry out a root and branch reform of the party and Brexit will not be a factor in the next election, allowing Labour to fight on policies that really concern ordinary working people.

If my forecast is accurate, the leftist liberals and progressives in this country are currently crafting a plan to overrule the result of the election and demand a second election that they call "the people's vote". We can expect that plan to be announced monday week. Curtains... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pegman Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 How long should it take to count ballots? Canada is huge compared to the UK and most seats are declared within a hour of the polls closing. Scotland should get out as soon as possible.

nauseus Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 1 hour ago, Victornoir said: This time the matches are over, Johnson will have the majority to vote on his exit plan. Europe, finally rid of the Atlanticist drag, will be able to advance towards the East, in accordance with its primary vocation. But the show will not stop there. The postponement of all the problems in Brussels will last a few more months. Then, they will tear apart by accusing each other of having caused the recession. The British Union lead shot in its wing and we will witness requests for independence from all, perfectly justified by the poor choices of the dominant nation. Just head east and see what happens. That will keep you busy enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those campaining against separation constantly pointed out that if Scotland broke away from the UK they would be out of the EU and would have to re-apply for membership which could take years and would possibly be unsuccessful, therefore, if they wanted to remain in the EU they needed to remain in the UK.

Then, I guess, all those other negotiations for all those other trade deals just waiting to be had. Hmm.. I wonder how people are going to feel seeing Johnson going cap in hand to Trump for a deal, assuming that Trump is still President. Congrats to those who wanted to leave the EU; it seems that you are going get your wish. That said, I can't shake the feeling that Brits, or what is left of the UK in 5 years, are going to look back at this day with great sadness. I suspect it'll be known as the day when it all really fell apart. For the sake of my British friends, I sincerely hope that I am wrong, but...
