Just watching Farage on Marr now. His promise that he'll have 150 people running in different constituents within the next five weeks is odd. Does he have the numbers a people to do that. Why anyone would vote for a party that is just based around one thing and one thing only is baffling. Farage is a massive con and anyone who says otherwise is blind. The very fact the guy won't stand says it all.
Interesting to see the conservative scrabbling by offering massive funding for the NHS, the forces etc. Yet it was his party that decimated those services. Also, was reading how their ploy of banning fracking is a total farce. The guy who wrote the conservative manifesto is a fracking lobbyist! They might as well say "We'll ban fracking just until next year though"

James O'Brien does his usual thing of decimating a Farage follower.
It'd be funny if it wasn't for the fact that so many people believe Farage's half truths and outright lies. He's made a career out of it and it's damaged this country massively. How anyone can still trust anything the man says is beyond me and makes me question their mental capacity for fact checking. For what it's worth, you can switch Farage in the above paragraphs to Johnson and it'd still hold true.

Looks like the Boris-Farage pact is happening. Brexit Party now only standing in Labour constituencies that voted majority leave and not contesting in Tory held seats at all.

i read about it this morning
have not looked at the currency market response to the news, but while this used to be a straight up brexit-no brexit thing, now corbyn is also bad for the pound. let’s see... — yep, shot higher... |

Elon Musk has said Brexit was the reason why he's chosen to have a Tesla factory in Berlin over the U.k. That's another company who's investment has been moved to somewhere else because of Brexit. Along with Dyson, Nissan and the rest.
Really turned out great hasn't it.

as for tesla to berlin, interesting move, because german car manufacturers are probably his #1 competition (or potential ally, depends). i mean, germans really know how to make cars. tesla is great at making batteries— cars not so much really, hype aside. and germans have not made big moves toward electric yet. im trying to reconnect my brain to the global information networks right now so a sincere thanks for posting this (use dr. mc coy’s voice) stimulant. |

Bit of an odd coincidence that the guy who pushed hard for Brexit and how it'd be great for business has suddenly decided to up and leave for Singapore. Whilst it may not be the only factor in leaving the UK brexit will surely dictate a big portion of his decision. However, if it wasn't then change Dyson to Sony.

What do I hope? A labour win of course or a labour/lib Dem coalition.. How anyone can still vote for conservatives is beyond me tbh. Then again, people are easily swayed by blatant lies from the media I guess. Michael Gove shuffles out blithering and blathering random nonsense, Johnson ambles into a town devastated by floods acting like he's going to sort it out. Only to be told by the locals he's a bit late for all that. All the while he holds back a report on russian interference cos it implicates the conservative party are big receivers of this interference. Patel, daughter of immigrants, spouts nonsense about how if Labour got into power they'd let in 840,000 people. A number seemingly pulled out of her black hole of an ass. Sorry for a minute there I lost myself. As for what do I expect to happen? Narrow conservative win with maybe a couple more seats from last time round. Although no one can predict how this one will go. How bout you?

I want a Tory majority, not just because of Brexit but cos as bad as Boris clearly is, I'd sooner take my chances with him than with a puppet-Corbyn government that has Momentum pulling his strings, John McDonnell in charge of the economy and Diane Abbott as home secretary.

Surely the point that everything is costed and accounted for by Labour shows that that their budget plans aren't just pie in the sky? The consersatives are panicking and Javid has suddenly decided that their decade of austerity isn't needed anymore so they can spend big. Without offering any suggestions on how to pay for it though.
Rather have Momentum supposedly pulling the strings than a government guilty of Russian interference and in the grip of big business only looking out for themselves. You know as well as I do that Britain leaving the EU plays right into their hands to tear up workers rights and environmental laws. Surely you'd rather have a party that actually wants to keep the NHS and thriving rather than be slowly torn apart? This is conservative party that has so far seen a massive rise in homelessness and with zero intention of changing that. A shocking rise in food banks being used and again, with no intention of sorting that out. All of these things have happened under the conservatives and with no change in sight. The idea of "well rather take my chances with ... than Corbyn" has been an absolute shit excuse so far. It hasn't worked with May, it didn't work with Cameron and nothing is going to change with Johnson. Even the markets are starting to realise that a Corbyn led government wouldn't be the end of times as some people are led to believe https://www.ft.com/content/36a01cd8-...4-b5ded7a7fe3f
