I wish people would stop calling him Boris. It makes him lovable. Calling Corbyn by his surname makes him a figure of fear or disdain. Call him Johnson. Or as someone said eloquently on a Farcebook meme, "Call him the man who but the "n" in cuts". :-) G

Chris you’ll be back tomorrow with a poll showing a hung parliament.....

Farage’s lot seem to be imploding, that can’t be good even if this election will (finally) see the end of him politically.

It's not good if all the voters go to Tories and they get in with a big majority. :-) G

Happy, I typed “Boris” because that’s all they call him in these cuddly vox pops.

I would normally call him, that piece e of shit Boris Johnson😀

And that’s the cleaned up version^

Voting intention of remainers/leavers summary on the beeb bbc.co.uk is quite interesting.

The Brexit Party vote looks like it is getting squeezed out and most of it going Tory.

A week is still a long time in politics, but I'm stocking up on canned food :)

Chris (previous page) - I'd still hate a Tory victory but it would give me some hope for future elections if Starmer was the next Labour leader.

I have a horrible feeling that the likes of Angela Rayner will be anointed as the next one up: Starmer's easily be most electable of the current front-bench but I don't think he's got enough votes within Labour to beat whoever Unite and or Momentum coalesce around...

I've mostly lost hope and am just trying not to think about it too much. There's nothing I can do now, except mentally prepare myself for whoever I'll be working for next week.

I want to scream at everyone "How can you vote Tory, you completely mad person?" but apparently that's not the done thing. :-) G

Name-calling will be called out, and Ad hominem will be frowned upon. :-) And whatabout-ery sits somewhere above responding to tone and below contradiction.
