General election

I think they know if they leave it much longer they will be done.
Reform down a bit, greens in the s**t Lowe and reform won't merge and conservatives still lacking trust plus said they won't join with reform

PM says it is 'clear' Russia interfered with Brexit referendum

He says voters were not "sufficiently" informed about how foreign actors sought to disrupt UK democracy.

I wonder if this is part of a build up to calling a GE

Hearing strong speculation that there will be an election before Xmas. Some are even suggesting Burnham might be going to see Charlie tomorrow to ask for permission to dissolve parliament by the end of the week. Labour trying to push through some voting changes on parliament next week

He's said its not going to happen. I'm going to guess its all just media hype to sell a story. Not that I trust him but it would make him look a bit of a chancer

Why would he go for a General Election? Could backfire...

They have a bounce in the polls. The economic picture is going to get worse with interest rates, electric bills and inflation all heading up over the next few months. Better to loss some of the back benchers in the fall out of an election than have to hang on until 2029 and hope it has improved.
Cancel the budget this month, get a new mandate and go with raising tax and spending in a December budget.

Making him look like a bit of a chancer. Does he not look like that all ready!!
I seem to remember in his election in Makersfield he said something like “I don’t want to reopen the Brexit vote”. What he meant was “I intend to take us back into closer EU ties without having a mandate”
He also needs to stop Reform being able to up there game spending the donations. Go early and it won’t have had an impact yet. People haven’t realeased the reform party has been very quiet over the summer due to the election rules. When Nigel was fighting his self inflicted by election, main stream media gave him no air time as they didn’t want to interview binface and the rest. This has also been evident with the lack of coverage for Stammer’s old seat. They didn’t want the rest of the country to see the labour candidate or give air time to our green friend Zac.
It is almost like we are being played!!

Let's not forget: if he gets his mandate, hewill seize the opportunity... Lots more tax, no more pensions.....

The blokes got more sides than the town hall clock.

Reform have dough and aren't as stupid as the media would love us to believe. They are quite simply our only hope. Let see if the sjeeple are bright enough to see what's staring them in the face

I'll be honest, I really rate Kemi..... If the Manchester Mong leaves it twelve months, she might just crack it.
But I suspect a November election..... because "We need to make tough financial calls and need a mandate to do so"......

And therein lies the problem.
But remember politicians are the face of others

I also like kemi but can you see the general populace accepting a person of colour with dodgy front teeth who identifys as a woman? Sadly not and it's a shame as she got more balls than most of them.
Tory's are out of play for now imo.

I don’t see why people wouldn’t vote for her - I think she’s very good (I’m just not convinced by the rest of her party). She’s probably the best politician out there at the moment imo.

Not a question of if they'll vote...it's if she's allowed a chance . Remember Boris.
