I hadn’t thought of the breakfast, but fried egg on toast would be great.

Pajama morning watching a film with the kids and having a Forza mini league. Vehicle handicap to even out the odds.

Out to Macdonalds for lunch, Water World in the afternoon, curry and a pint for tea in front of another film.

I would be prepared to swap Water World or the morning film for building a giant lego castle and waging war against the invaders.

3. It’s very clear from the song.

Don’t you wish we’d chosen chaos with Ed Milliband instead of the Conservative’s Long Term Economic Plan?

If Rory Stewart were standing in my constituency, I would be very tempted to vote for him. In his work he’s now an advocate of alleviating many of the problems in the poorest communities globally by giving no-conditions cash. Who knew that the problems of poverty could be solved with money?!!!

He’s also a reasonable person and one who I think genuinely wants good things for the country in general rather than just for rich folk. He actually wants Britain to be governed well and in the interests of the population. He has some blind spots of course, he wouldn’t be a Conservative of he didn’t, but he’s decent and there’s hope that he can be persuaded by evidence of benefit.

This is surely right - we really don’t know where the undecided voters will go, and if a week is a long time in politics, five of them is an eternity.

The Conservatives are, and always have been, the Nasty Party.

I need my arsehole, though.

I mean it’s not a lot of fun, but the alternatives are much worse.

If my seat could go Tory or Lib Dem, I’d vote Lib Dem every day and twice on Thursdays.

I nominate you for best written sentence on the Internet today.

The only reason it’s not a tax is to save older, more likely-to-vote generations (who have a higher earnings differential from their degrees than younger folk) from having to pay it too, concentrating the cost on the currently-young.

Awful Awful Awful.

Young people don’t want to give up their weekends doing unpaid “mandatory volunteer” work either, though. There’s no actually good option here for young people.

Let them get a good education, let them build a career, let them use spare hours for extra earning or relaxation, because their property costs are astronomical. Don’t sacrifice them further just for political gain.

It’s true to form for the Conservatives, though. You were sacrificed for political gain if you were low paid, if you needed healthcare or social care, if you were disabled, if you were trans, and pretty much if you weren’t a wealthy outright property-owner.

And they so very badly need to learn that lesson, yes. Hopefully this nonsense motivates a new generation of young people forming a habit of voting, and of voting against the Conservative Party.

The Conservative Party is notoriously unforgiving of leaders who lose general elections, and currently pathologically addicted to leadership elections. I’d be very surprised if he’s not gone by the end of the year even if he does exceptionally well in the general election.

Very much so, yes.

Well in that sense, they’ve been remarkably successful. Literally billions of public money gone through the VIP lane and unrepaid business loans during covid. Nearly every tax cut giving more money to the already well off and less to below average earners. Wealth inequality soaring to help them feel superior.

OK, but he did claim he was going to stay on as an MP. Come to think of it, that’s a bit of an admission that he’s going to lose the election and then be replaced as leader of the Conservative Party.

Hopefully considerably less powerful soon.

It’s only a story because it’s so incredibly rare that members of the public get the chance to criticise his crazy policies to his face, in terms ordinary folk can relate to.

Ah yes, because another five years of the Conservative Party is just what the country needs. Spoken like a true leftist.

Alongside squawkbox, it’s one of the popular media outlets designed to appeal to left wing folks that regularly work to oppose the Labour Party (who they call “red tories”) winning.

I had a leftist explain to me earlier that it would be better for Boris to win because Labour was too right wing and it would put people off voting for a properly leftist party if the centrists got into power again.
