Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

Do you think there will be a Deal or No Deal?


  • Total voters
    194
  • Poll closed .
Yeah it doesn't have the same punch when Labour are over 10 points clear.


Errrrrr, what?

One's the leader of the Opposition with, as you say, a 10 point lead. The other's a bloke with a bucket on his head.

I thought my post was pretty obviously satire when you take into account the two people I'm comparing.

But when you feel the need to defend the Labour leader against a throw away joke about Buckethead, that's a pretty damning indictment of Corbyn himself. Probably more so than any anti-Labour activist would ever hope.

Armando Iannucci better up his game.
 
But he is.

I like Corbyn as a protest vote option. But the man to run the country? Nah.

He won't be winning any GE. Winning the pre-election polls will be the the height of his political achievments.
satire doesn't read as satire when you also believe it unironically, it might be a unfunny joke but it's not satire, it doesn't even have any animals in it
 
That poll with the 10 point Labour lead also had a 16 point lead for remain :lol:
 
If you think things are bad now, it doesn't bare thinking about what a mess Corbyn would leave behind.
I keep hearing this from people, but I fail to understand what a Corbyn government could to do the country that's worse than the last 9 years of the Tories.

Keep voting Tory then, you get the govt you deserve.
 
Ed was pulling in 10-point poll leads constantly (if not more sometimes), not exactly all that impressive until you consolidate it.
 
They haven't got any charming figures.
 
They have no figures at all.

A figure implies posture. They just talk shxt all day every day, the same as the past 3 years. Diane Glover on Sky right now proving it. Even Adam Boulton has had enough

Turn us into Venezuela, not my opinion by the way, its just what his detractors says

How dare you satirize our Magnificent Leader Corbyn? How dare you? He will lead us out/in the EU, with the best deal/no-deal/referendum you have ever seen!

As a Corbyn-sceptic left winger, I think the obvious answer would be that he would mess things up so badly that we'd end up with yet another long spell of Tory Government.
 
The business community are more worried about a Corbyn government than a no deal Brexit.

They are idiots if they are. Corbyn isn't effective enough to feck things up too much. Unlike the Tories who could throw a ball into the air and miss.

Corbyn attacks them directly.


The Tories might destroy the business environment but will surely protect the capitalist class when push comes to shove - a trade deal with the US on awful terms.

So? They shouldn't be immune from criticism

Sounds great? :nervous:

Tories are bad for everyone apart from "people like us" and very few of us are "people like us".
 
It's not like Corbyn can flick his fingers and do a bunch of stuff. Fearing Corbyn more than No Deal would be baseless.

Yeah, it's not like the economy has taken a hit in the last few years because of the Tory led Brexit mess we're in. Or we've had job losses due to it. Or companies talking about moving out of the country. We must have imagined all of that.
