This TIG lot should get zero votes. Offered a deal by Lib Dems apparently, didn't want to know.

Or because they're a bunch of hapless,condescending,sneering,hypocritical,unelec table wankers.

Or am I only allowed to criticise Corbyn on here now?



edit:No idea why there's a space in unelectable

No, I'm with you on that as well.

Agreed, but once we Remain it'll be better to have MEPs who aren't just there to film three minutes videos for YouTube while doing **** all work.

Useless. Two name changes, muddled messaging, crap social media then sabotaging the main reason they exist. Just pants.

They have indeed royally ****ed things up. Which is a bloody shame, because I want to see them do well.

Trouble for CHUK is that they are generals with no army. You can't just magic a campaign out of nowhere. It's not all press releases and fizz. You need troops to not only organise and design a campaign, but unless you have unaccounted millions (ahem, Brexit Party), deliver the campaign too.

The Lib Dems were that readt and willing army for TIG. Such a shame they couldn't see it.

Don't be so harsh on yourself.

The UKIP campaign has been a wild ride, from Tommy Robinson running in a part of the country with one of the highest concentration of British Muslims to getting the Youtube shockjocks to run seemingly not caring that their fanbase of spotty 17 year old American boys will have a minimal effect on the votes.

I'm not convinced Gerard Batten is real, I think Sacha Baron Cohen has splashed out on a convincing costume to play this new character.

Is Change UK a pressure group to keep 1 and 2p coins?

In which case they have done very well, don't understand the criticism

All true. And as ebeyeck and tasty have said they have been offered a deal by the Liberals and turned their noses up at it.

A new type of politics? No same egotisticals putting themselves (and their false narrative dreams of power) over country yet again.

I have to say the Liberals keep going up in my estimation, despite being hammered for going into coalition and doing a fine job of bringing stability and curbing the excesses of the tories (witness the shit show since the tories have been in power alone) and laughed out of town for their ballot box failure they have kept consistently plugging the same policies and mature mindset.

That TIG/Change/Chukka suddenly wants to occupy their space wasn't greeted with disbelief, venom or jealousy but the practical response of great - let's join forces and maximise the remain vote.

Tending reluctantly towards voting Green.Can't vote in this election for a party seemingly enabling Brexit, currently lead by a divvy who writes a forward to a book containing clear anti semitic tropes (however historical) without pointing them out and refuting them in strong terms in that foreword.

Yes LibDems finally gaining back their credibility and yes Change UK showing that they are just hot air when talking about change but still have not removed their party politics hats.

Party politics before the good of the country

Indeed. No doubt prompted by Putin and his trolls:

I think this has been covered,but there was a passage in that book of about 10 lines when the book is about 400 pages long.I'm happy to discuss the farce that is every party's Brexit policy(except the Lib Dems and Greens who actually have a clear policy) but the anti-semitism stuff is just media smear.

Well Labour's policy is still to leave, despite the best efforts of some, so if you would like to remain I would suggest considering another party.
