You are the one always posting links to newspapers and TV stations that you prefer. As stated on the Ian Hislop programme, people tend to believe anything that they are sympathetic to. So how do you know that YOUR links are genuine and others are not? I don't put up any serious links because I don't trust any of them.

747 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 I will have little choice but to vote for the Brexit Party. This is a Labour stronghold where the unemployed (and those with no intention of ever being employed) will vote for the Benefits Party (aka Labour). Ironically, the Tories look the better option for Government when placed alongside Labour and the Brexit Party. If I thought Nigels Party had the remotest chance of winning a GE, I would not touch them with a bargepole. Politics is getting very complicated these days. 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the name "Brexit party" is a bit of a giveaway you know. (lol) You do of course realise they are campaigning on an over the cliff no deal ticket? Your right though. Its complicated. LibDems probably have no chance where I am and I might have to vote Labour to stop the Tories but then again the Tory candidate as I think you pointed out is smoking hot which kind of overrides any principles I might have.
