A close second to the poppy thing is the Shisha pipe and plastic wine and shot glasses in the background as if a single Tory MP has ever used a single on of them.

Why does that bother you? Are you short of things to be bothered by?

Anyway, I’m sure there are many Tory MPs who have used a Shisha pipe. Obviously without inhaling though.

Your usual bollox.....as a clear tory person and person that’s has many tory friends (amongst others) I can think of loads of times I’ve used plastic wine and shot glasses. You make it sound like their existence revolves around drinking out of crystal ffs...... 

Trust me, I have plenty of champagne socialist mates that would turn their nose up at plastic glasses faster than me.......

Tories pledge this, Labour pledge that...  Does it really matter what they pledge? No one believes anything they say
anyway.

There is a real buzz about the lectrics party in this election.

Baroness Warsi has been on fire over the last couple of days on Islamophobia.

You know that enquiry into Islamophobia that was promised by Johhnson; presumably it is going to start when the enquiry into Russian Interference in elections is released?

Another off putting thing is the ludicrous 26bn extra cost of drugs claim after banging away for 3 years about the leave EU promises  about 350m to the NHS undermining the result. Someone needs a claim about something that is greater than a cost or benefit of 500m a week.

Did you know that Nigel Farage’s Leave. EU formally signed up to a detailed exit plan, which would take two decades, involve single market membership and a confirmatory referendum on the deal?

Credit ratings agency Moody’s changes outlook on UK’s (Aa2) rating from stable to negative. Pretty damning release says Brexit has been a catalyst in an “erosion in institutional strength” which is now seriously undermining faith in the UK

just as well no party is planning to borrow a lot at now higher cost then.....

Underlying the Moody’s outlook cut is a worry that essentially both major UK political parties have pretty much given up on fiscal prudence.

Boris Johnson has a better job rating among Lib Dems than Jeremy Corbyn.  Sadly that will be a big limiting factor on LD-Lab tactical voting.

Net "doing well /badly" as PM / Lab leader - DeltaPoll, 6-9 Nov, LIB DEM VOTERS

Johnson -49
Corbyn -68
