(well to be honest I went back and checked, and you did) I grant you were saying early on that the polls were wrong - credit for picking up the mood swing and Corbyn's popularity with voters, but ultimately you called the wrong result (as everyone else did, to varying extents). The tories increased their vote, too and T.May's PM (unfortunately). The pollster man - I think his earlier polls were wrong, too. Everybody was wrong. politics has become almost unforecastable - some people pick up on "direction of travel" as you did, pretty smartly and uniquely, on here, yet still even with your highly attuned spider senses, you ended up wrong, too. I hope the direction of travel in the UK (which is bound to be affected by all this Brexit chaostrophy) will be further away from the tories again, but the way things are going round the world who knows what event will happen next and change things again. Terrorism, Islamophobia, Fires, Wars, Brexit, Trump, Russia, China, N. Korea, upcoming German elections....it's like the Chinese proverb - "May you live in interesting times". It was only a little quip. Nothing serious. You needn't have bothered going back and checking. I don't remember saying he would win though as I never thought that would be the case. I did predict 320 Tory seats and a hung parliament though. There's a picture I posted with my work predictions and I had 320. Not far off 318. Early on I just thought there was a Labour surge being driven by social media that was all. Hence the it's happening joviality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post dAVe80 Posted June 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2017 As much as I'm enjoying the Glasto / Corbyn love in, my hipster side is a bit miffed, as I liked him before he was popular. Looking forward to his difficult second album though. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnkarl Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Corbyn needs to start planning ahead for what will be the hardest period in his lifetime. Leading the final stages of the Brexit negotiations. He's got the popular vote pretty much shored up based on the shambolic tory performance as of late and now needs to start focusing on what he truly wants for the EU vote. He's been very unclear on this as of yet. If I were him I'd call a second referendum as part of the next GE manifesto. That'd win him a hell of a lot of seats in fairly conservative seats in the home counties who voted remain in for example Hants, Berks, Bucks, Scotland(not home county, but very remain focused). The faster we can get someone who isn't Theresa May into no. 10 the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I know, in your day a disco always involved a glitter ball, flares and John Travolta. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I'd like to see May make an appearance where she would be comfortable tbh. Maybe she could do a speech to some kids from Yemen as their bodies are blown to pieces from the weapons she is happy to sell to Saudi Arabia. They could even let her press the button to send the bombs to kill the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
