RIP then

lol the teeth get me every time

the only thing i hope for at this election is that the tories get

has done that.

the Conservatives will win by a massive margin The problem is that they are not actually conservative in the slightest.
UKIP is the closest things to /ourguys/ but there civic af

STOP REPLYING TO JIDF SLIDE THREADS.

There is a concerted effort to flood our board with Reddit faggots doing a "Raid".

IF YOU MUST TAKE THE BAIT; THE WORD SAGE GOES IN THE OPTIONS FIELD TO NOT BUMP THE THREAD.

This thread is an attempt to slide genuine content off the board.

Read this earlier. Fucking interesting read, thanks for posting. Quite scary actually.
Another interesting one if you haven't read it, also related:

Mercer is known as a big data billionaire and has a background in the field.

Thankfully I became "red-pilled", so to speak, years before this started. It might explain why a large percentage of people suddenly switched though.

It mostly targeted Facebook users I take it.

Can anything save UKIP?

So who is the defector ??

Anything important ?

Weird that may called a ge before the boundary changes

Tim "Got a large dong, but gays are wrong" Farron will be the next PM

I only wish the Tories were actually right wing. It is satisfying to watch Labour get utterly demolished. They deserve far worse than electoral defeat.

>SNP supported fixed terms parliaments
somehow this annoys me enough to seriously consider not playing devil's advocate on their part.

Anyway, Neil is talking shit when he says it's a consequence of the fixed terms parliament act - Brown was unelected before the act. It's a consequence of the British constitution. Act or no act, she'd lack a mandate (a meme thing anyway, really.)

Their position doesn't seem all that incoherent to me though.
1. May has not thusfar had a mandate, because that's how things work. (Similarly nor did Brown. Whatever.)
2. May is now seeking a mandate - if she was doing it "Properly" she'd have done so immediately on being elected, instead of deciding to do it now. (Probably down to the election fraud investigation more than the polls tbqh.)

Then Neil goes onto a much more profitable route (That the act isn't being repealed, and that Labour are Turkeys voting for an early Christmas.) and I tune out.

2018 would be too late to call it with brexit negotiations on going

All it means is 2022 is going to be secure for the Tories

Plus they might change it to 650 constituencies, but just rebalanced

Posting for Comrade Corbyn.

They just need to concentrate their efforts in the constituencies they came second with a decent margin. In my area it was 24.8% to the Tory 49.5%. He blew himself up in a stupid home accident last year and is a mediocre local MP at best so if I was UKIP I'd concentrate on these two facts. Ripe for the plucking, lad!

can you tell me what is actually happening at the moment that I'm sliding. Sup Forums never actually has any real discussion it just people getting hooked by real obvious b8 and people posting BLACKED threads

bring ARE NIGE back.
imagine trumps policies with jeb bush's personality, that's pual nuttal the new ukip leader.

CAN ONLY GET

CAN ONLY GET

CAN ONLY GET

THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGGGGSS

Well there we go, my thoughts of voting UKIP are completely gone.

Paul Nuttall just hasn't been the same since he escaped the South Tower.

interesting read desu

about american elections but most of it applies here with brexit

I lot of his friends died on the titanic you know it must be hard for him

This is the best spurdette I've seen in a while.

>our UKIP candidate blew himself up in a stupid accident.

I don't know why but I think if there was a ratio decidendi to UKIP post Brexit it would be that.

Conservatives are globalist bankers who do actually care more about the rich. But they do stuff for us as well and don't raise our taxes, so we have to keep them.

Is this Balkenkreuz rolled by 45 degree?

When does question time start again lads? And other political shows? There was a pic with all the dates on but can't find it

Times this morning.

Some interesting little numbers in there.

Good stuff, though I'm too pessimistic for the conclusion.
> I’m not saying their opinions aren’t—arguably—myopic, evil, stupid. But it’s far better to say that someone has stupid opinions than to say that someone is so stupid that they are incapable of having a meaningful opinion. Liberal insistence on the latter has turned political discourse into a vacuum where everyone can scream yet no one feels heard.
Which applies some agency to the liberals. I'd say overall, because our political system is so resistant to anything but re-arranging the deckchairs, that would always be the case. To some degree the only better option would be ensuring nobody feels heard because speaking will be punished - at least that would make explicit our situation, instead of retaining the pretence that we're free to do whatever we want - most people just loved Blair in 2005!

>Who /TorygainzinScotland/ here?

What's better 4channers, /r/UnitedKingdom or /r/UKpolitics?

Neither. Now fuck off back there.

This Week and the Daily Politics are the only things worth watching senpai. QT is just painful

how the fuck did the lib-dems manage to halve their support again

losing Orkney and Shetland would be pretty kekworthy desu.

You KEK

By joining up with the Tories for table scraps they've managed to make themselves irrelevant for another hundred years.

Who else /bus/ to work rn

WRONG ANSWER!

It's actually to do with their WEAK KEK leader.

You missed the ending where Labour shit on the idea of forming a coalition with the SNP. In blatant terms, "No, I see no circumstances at all with that sort of coalition. Going into any sort of arrangement with the SNP that is set to brake up Britain, and failing as a government within their own country in Scotland is not for us."

No the Tory MP blew himself up, it's early still I fucked my syntax.

I saw it, but I didn't see it relevant to comment. Sturgeon herself said that while she'd offer Labour some kind of arrangement post-election to keep the Conservatives out:
>“I’m not sure there are many people who think Labour are going to be in any position, on their own or with anyone else, to form a government,”

Christ Paul you're drunk before nine am again. This is why Julia doesn't see you any more.

>In February this year Lib Dem leader Mr Farron said Jeremy Corbyn was “not progressive”, ruling out any alliance with Labour.
wtf i love corbyn now

ARISE

The controversial Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has been dropped from the network after allegations of inappropriate behaviour and sexual harassment, in a development that could have significant implications for the Murdoch empire on both sides of the Atlantic.
Campaigners say the allegations against O’Reilly should alarm the watchdog, which can recommend that the government blocks 21st Century Fox’s £11.7bn bid for the 61% of Sky that it does not already own. Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan are the joint executive chairs of 21st Century Fox while James Murdoch, Rupert’s other son, is chief executive.

>Fox employee allegedly harasses a few women

could they literally not find ONE white labour voter?

No reason for her to wait for boundary changes. Labour are a shambles and could end up with 200 or less seats as things stand.

Boundary changes will be in place before 2022, ensuring Labour remain in opposition for many years to come.

Didn't mean to reply to myself either. Fuck

Labour's implosion since 2015 is my model for what the Democrats are going to experience over the next 8+ years. The neolib globalist wing (most of the politicians) warring with the frothing-at-the-mouth communist wing (most of the voters) while every to the right of Marx gradually moves on with their lives and takes their votes elsewhere, and neither side can ever get the upper hand, because the more voters the globalist pols lose, the more valuable the communist fanatics become, but the more the commies are pandered to, the more rational voters they lose.

What kind of arrangement do they think they're going to get with Labour basically telling them to piss off? It seems like the left has eaten itself and now you have two left wing parties ready to kill each other which only leaves UKIP and the tories as real contenders. not that 7 percent is big numbers, but it means a whole lot of a struggling party like UKIP.

There arent any.

I've posted before about importing voters. Without lumping down another wall of text, it's a consistent tactic across the western world.

>SNP
>Left wing

Literally why would you vote for tories?

Good morning you cunts.
youtube.com/watch?v=GB2yiIoEtXw

Anyone know who is on QT tonight?

I think of Labour as the party of university students. Same thing for Libdems and Greens.

What is interesting is that the heads of the unions go along with new Labour as well. The people they represent might not, but the union leaders do.

I laugh when parrots say nonsensical shit too

Good morning.

I have a job interview tomorrow, for which I will have to travel, so I have taken today off just to relax and so some preparation later in the day. Good times. I'll be shitting myself tomorrow though. Hate interviews.

It is though. Look at who runs the SNP. They're Europhile socialists, who spend FAR more than they take in and still manage to accomplish nothing. I'm not sure if that's left wing or dine-and-dash, but they're constantly courting the labour crowd. It's interesting that you don't see tories too often take up with SNP.

What happened to the times revealing a defection today?

Maybe it was a mis-print and they're actually going to reveal a defecation.

It shuts everyone up who says there is no mandate for a hard Brexit.

...

...

Real wages have decreased though. 26 out of 28 EU countries have seen wage rises since the recession.

The only ones that haven't are the UK and fucking Greece.

I rarely go to Manchester these days, but spent most weekends there about 10 years ago. I was nauseated last year while travelling through. This is what conservatism has done. The rising cost of living, the bedroom tax, the harsh sanctions on benefits and the declining help for people with mental health issues. How can they do these things to other people?

I've one on Saturday and it's a big one.

Some tips.

Wiggle your toes if you're nervous or flapping and gesticulating. I know it sounds retarded.

Pause before you answer questions. Not "are you user?" But shit like "what was your greatest achievement?"

Also depending on your field bone up on STAR questions.

>uni students
>union leaders but not members

both of these phenomena are occurring here as well. it's kind of crazy how the left/right punches of Obama and Trump have kicked America into a "European mode" of politics in less than a decade.

In 2007 nobody gave a shit about muslim immigrants here (because there weren't any), and people who called everybody Hitler were just amusing "colorful" attractions and not "journalists". Also Antifa wasn't a thing as far as I can remember

I've reached the Times 2 and don't see anything. I'll flick back.

Who /preparingforuniexams/ here?

>tfw final year
>tfw so close to a first

He got baited yesterday big time but still did not rule out a deal with the other parties.

You know what else brings down the average wage and raises living costs? Bringing in a new population of unemployed foreigners like Labour caused
>muh benefits
get a fucking job and it won't matter

Fucks sake.

As against modernism/brutalism as I am, I am somewhat sad to see this.
I am in favour of "clusters" of architectural types. Having neighbourhoods dominated by one particular style of architecture.
That particular region of London, the southern bank of Blackfriars bridge, has a grungy atmosphere to it, very characteristic and distinctive. But that vibe will be wiped out by the plethora of new developments planned for that area.

Are they minorities against the general public or minorities within the NHS. Some place inside the NHS being white is being in a minority.
I should say I have worked in the NHS before I can tell you making claims of bullying is part of the culture of pleb against management. The numbers will be skewed. I once complained of harassment because someone was calling me a chav and the management took it seriously.

It was a labour mp to lib dems iirc

Loads of money.

My Fav from yesterday was the question asked just after Corbyn had given his speech on the vote to have a General. `Is, that it?` classic baiting.

>Wiggle your toes if you're nervous or flapping and gesticulating. I know it sounds retarded.
I'll try it.

>Pause before you answer questions. Not "are you user?" But shit like "what was your greatest achievement?"
I hate those questions. I'll think some answers up during my journey.

I don't intend to do well on those questions. I'll just answer honestly. I've got 6 pages of research into the industry I've done over the past few days to digest. So I'll learn that and hope to wow them with it.

Oh and good luck with yours!

As far as EEA freedom of movement is concerned, there is absolutely no evidence that wages were suppressed in any negligible way.

fullfact.org/economy/membership-single-market-and-lower-wages/

When I asked one Tory voter I know what he thought about the rising number of people visiting food banks he told me it was probably because they "spent all their benefits on cigarettes and booze" knowing that there was free food waiting at the food banks.

Equally when questioned about what they think about rising homelessness here in Manchester I've heard a couple of Tory voters say that nobody in the UK is homeless except out of choice.

You're a fucking cuck if you're willingly letting the tories dismantle our public services, social and mental health care, and the safety net of welfare.

>The literal worst people I can imagine who aren't Diane Abbot will vote Lib Dem

When a person is relaxed their face muscles are relaxed. Do some facial stretching exercises a few minutes before you go into the room. I suggest in the loo so you do not look too silly. The stretching will help your face muscles relax and in turn this will give you inner calmness.
Plus take your own tea or coffee because the shit you get given before the interview always fucks with the adrenaline levels.

The vote swapping thing will pop up soon and we can bait some idiots into voting Green if we vote Labour / Lib Dem for them like last time.

If you hate them mate (I know I do) it's worth prepping them early. No amount of research on their last financial year will save you if you muff them.

You'll do great though. Best of luck to you. If the interview is legal, consulting or public sector I can give some more tips.

Ta.

you're a drain on society if you need a "safety net of welfare"

Bet you change your mind when you get AIDS.

Anything that gets rid of SNP votes are good
