But aye, fair play. Speaking of canvassing, I know I'm in a safe Labour area but I've literally had one canvasser (Labour, so at least that) knock on my door in nearly 14 years of living in Lewisham, and that was for the council elections five years ago. Really makes you feel wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Heckled "thick cunts" at a Brexit party campaign van that came through my street with a megaphone earlier. The pitfalls of grocery shopping online, I'm never conveniently carrying eggs (or milkshake). Still felt hard as fuck though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5217 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Where have those 3 points come from... Greens? Independents? Either way it's welcome. If just to dispel some of the gloom that might stop people voting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44750 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Worth noting that another couple of polls have just come out. One shows a no change 12 point Tory lead and the other a 10 point lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44750 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 The 10 point one was 11 previously so slight tightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30521 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) There’s a lot of undecideds in play and the Tories have taken a lot of shit this week while Labour have emerged pretty much unscathed.

PaddockLad 17235 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 There’s a few things in the first paragraph of this I’d strongly argue with and the premise of the article’s title is to me fuckin cringeworthy (not being of that, or any faith, obvs) but I found what the interviewees said was interesting.... I’ve always known who I was going to vote for when I’ve gone into the booth every time I’ve voted for the last 30 odd years. This time though, I really don’t and it’s partly because of the the issues addressed here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5217 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) I read the Jewish rabbis statements about anti-Semitism and why The Jews had abandoned Labour in such numbers. It said there were two reasons. 1. The party has moved too far left. 2. Anti-Semitism. I find the order of those statements interesting. Corbyn was also backed last night by several other rabbis from across the country who don't have the media's ear. Either way, I am enduringly incredulous that anyone seriously thinks that Jewish people are facing some kind of legitimate, state backed persecution under a Labour government.

Rayvin 5217 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Guardian reporting queues out the door, into the hundreds, of people waiting to vote in several places including Putney which is very marginal. Weather doesn't seem to have been a big deterrent so far. Apparently my seat is being watched as a national indicator since Newcastle will report early and it's a leave constituency. Would be amazed if it didn't go Labour though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've overheard two Jewish people at work using the phrase "I'm scared of what he might do". I know their history gives them the right to be cautious but fucking hell.

I remember even in 1997 they were looking at whether Labour would become even more dominant in the already safe Sunderland South, which was the first one to declare (their candidate added 10%, which is when we already knew it was going to be a fun night).
