General Election 12 December.

First 'Battle Bus' of the election.

Like the tweet that 'Jo Swinson's Liberal Democrats sounds like an old rock band'. 😂

The Liberal Democrats party no longer belongs to its members.

 

It belongs to one person (Jo Swinson) who wants to cancel the votes of 17.4 million people and has voted many, many times to reduce the living standards of the poorest people in the UK.

 

 

Lets ensure that the Lib Dem battle bus has just enough fuel for a one way trip to the EU paradise...

Just think if the weather on 12 December is anything like today's!

 

Result aside, I wonder what the day will bring - voter apathy due to the last three year's shenanigans, or perhaps a larger-than-normal turnout?

You're not going to convince me that Ms Swinson's opinion on remaining in the EU isn't somewhat swayed by the fact that her husband, Duncan Hames is Director of Policy at Transparency International UK, a Berlin based NGO, which has received funding from the EU other organisations such as Siemens. 

 

It's on a par with Nick Clegg's love for the EU as his wife was a prominent EU lobbyist.

Sorry my mistake, it should have been could and not would. If the Lib Dems gain a seat then that is taken away from the other parties tally of seats and that could be from a currently held Labour seat. In that case Lib Dems would be up one, Labour down one and the Conservatives unchanged.

And the majority would also be unchanged

The idiots wanted to have an election in December. To the clueless that thought one day wouldn’t matter to schools, we’ll it seems you were very wrong.

I think they’re over egging this a bit. A couple of flakes of snow would have a similar effect. Things can get postponed, cancelled, moved. World won’t end.

 

But a daft time to have an election though, I would agree.

What a load of rot! The election has been called for the 12th December and it is now only the 7th November. Considering that its normally primary schools that hold one and usually just for one day I doubt many schools will have problems rescheduling their itenary to allow the school to close for that one day.

Read my post again. 

 

Did I say that Duncan Hamed personally received money from  the EU?  Er, no!  I posted he works for an NGO that has been funded by the EU & big business. 

 

Have a look at Transparency International's own website: https://www.transparency.org/whoweare/accountability/who_supports_us/2

 

Oooooo look.  Who's that mentioned who provide funds?  Well it's only the EUROPEAN COMMISSION.  Well I never. 

 

Do a bit of research & don't give me the hook, line & sinker comment.  That stupid comment has backfired at bit eh? 

 

Suitably chastised I'd say.
