The amount of times tories are still blaming the previous government in this campaign after almost 10 years in power is unprecedented imo.

Sajid Javid has claimed that homelessness has halved under the Tories and that it reached a peak in 2008. This is, unsurprisingly, rubbish.

 

The homeless figure actually hit an all-time low in 2009. Since 2019, it has risen steadily.

 

2019??

 

Fatal mistake - don't criticise other's spelling or numeracy, while making a similar mistake yourself. :heehee:

Thank you for demonstrating the point made in my previous post.

Oops. I meant 2010.

They were still blaming Labour for all the nation’s ills in 1992 after 13 years in power.

This seems to be going viral across social media.

The 'there's no money' note left in the Treasury in 2010 was perhaps, with hindsight, not the finest hour of the previous Labour government.

 

However, to broadcast total bollocks like 'Labour bankrupted Britain in 2008' as 'Saj' often does, and yet get away with it despite Javid himself likely a greater cause of the disaster, being during 2007-2008 a banker at Deutsche Bank, where he sold complex financial derivatives such as Collateralised Debt Obligations (CDOs) - which were essentially junk bad mortgage debt repackaged as gold-plated solid investments - is really infuriating.

 

Instead of being Chancellor and allowed to pedal this complete fallacy he should either be sacked for incompetence/idiocy or in jail with all the other bank-sters and fraudsters that were never punished after the financial crisis.

 

No such luck however. This is probably why he chickened out of a debate with the Shadow Chancellor.

I am genuinely really upset by this.

 

I worked directly with disabled people for four years. It's absolutely disgusting. This is a representative(with these views...THESE views in 2019 for christ sake) of the party that, come next week will probably get back in for another 5 years and yet people stick their heads in the sand and use the "oh well nevermind they're all as bad as each other argument".

That particular candidate is in a rather juicy seat; Hastings and Rye. Fingers crossed that the direct successor of Amber Rudd is a Labour MP, there's not very many votes to turn.

 

Though from their actions, these are likely thoughts and feelings shared by many other Conservative candidates, it's not been a good election for candidates having clean records (across all parties, but very frequently Conservatives with the worst).

Boris scarpering from the scene again I see...

Five protesters? What a snowflake.

It really is amazing(in the worst way). He's running a supposedly democratic country and the minute he faces any type of criticism or is held to any type of accountability whatsoever he runs away like a scared little boy.

I really thought I'd heard it all, what a f***ing clown she is as is everyone who blindly follows what B*ris says.

He has to if advised to cancel or leave an engagement by his security detail. They have the last say if there's any kind of threat. No questions and he has no say just like the Royals. He has a team of armed Special Branch officers with him everywhere he goes, day and night as every PM does.

It was a few protesters with signs and Andrew Neil masks and he has a massive ARMED security team. Come the f*** off it.

He has an armed security team, yes. Are you disputing that? The UK PM is a terrorist target.

Perhaps older Tory voters were raised in an era when attitudes were different, and are therefore less bothered by comments like this? :unsure:

And yet he fled from FIVE PROTESTERS WAVING SIGNS. COME. OFF. IT. He's weak.
