I'm old enough to remember Window Tax.

But you wuz too poor to 'ave windows :-)

Owain

We had the windows but not the glass.

Bill

Better than having the glass and no windows.

No because you could sell the glass and buy shoes.

Corbyns new window tax is really going to hurt some people.

Nope, because there is no chance that he will be the govt.

unfortunately,

there is

Dont believe it.

The issue is the possibility of tactical voting by some to avoid
letting Boris become PM.

There isnt even remotely enough tactical voting
to make up for the need for 100 more seats for a
Labour/LD coalition to do better than the Torys.

it's not 100

It is with the number of seats a Labour/LD coalition
needs to have more seats than the Torys.

30 would do it

Nope, because most of the seats that change
would be from Labour to the LD and so wouldnt
affect the total for a Labour/LD coalition.

(you've forgotten the SDP)

Um SNP

SNP reckon that they can take 10 seats off the Tories


And it remains to be seen if thats just more polly bull****.

Nope, you have forgotten that most of the seats
that will change will be from, Labour to the LD,


Nope, LD are in second place to the Tories in quite a few seats


What matters is the seats that can change party, not the total seats,


those are the seats that can change party


Nope, too much gap between the Torys and the LD, you watch.

seats like Cheltenham


There arent quite a few seats like that.

Thats not anything like possible by tactical voting
given that so few are into tactical voting.

There is never going to be a coalition between
a rabid Trot/Marxist Labour and the LD,

let's hope we don't get to find out


We wont, you watch. Like I said, there are only 3 possibilitys,
a majority Tory govt, a Tory coalition or a minority Tory govt.


there is zero chance of a Tory coalition


We'll see...

Bet there is if there is a real possibility of a Labour govt.

there is no one who will coalesce with them


Thats bull**** with the DUP alone.

but if that is the only numbers that work,


Thats wrong too.


There are only two possible end results he

A Tory Government

A rag tag and bobtail collation government formed from
Labour/SNP/LD/PC/Grn.


Taint gunna happen. There is no way that the LD will have a
coalition with the rabid Trot/Marxist Labour, you watch.

SNP either given that Corbyn wont agree to another scottish
referendum any time soon and wont even say if he is for or
against leaving.

The rest are completely irrelevant.

And Labour wont get enough seats anyway, you watch.

Either of which could actually be a minority government


Yes, that is certainly a real possibility.

because the N Irish MPs wont join with anybody


How odd that they did. The other fools dont even bother
to show up in parliament and so are completely irrelevant.

(and can usually be expected not to turn up for any debate not actually
affecting NI).


But brexit does.

I won't be betting against it


Irrelevant to what can happen.


of course it's not irrelevant


Of course how you personally will be voting
is completely irrelevant to the outcome.

the largest of those two choice above *will* be the next government.


But how you personally have voted wont.

There is no chance that a Tory government which can be out voted by the
combined strength of Labour+SNP+LD+PC+Grn


Thats never going to happen and didnt.

could be formed, because all of the other parties are so vehemently
against Boris and his policies


Thats bull**** too.

Muddling through hoping that e.g. the LDs abstain just aint gonna work


That coalition of yours isnt going to either.

There is never going to be a coalition between
a rabid Trot/Marxist Labour and the LD,


As I said, I hope that we don't get to find out


because if we do, I believe that you will be proven wrong.


I know you will be.

The LD have no other choice available to them


Corse they do, see how a minority Tory govt works out.

And that wont even have to do that if its a majority Tory govt.

they might extract some concessions,


No chance with Corbyn.

but they *will* back Labour if that's the way to a non-Tory government.


Taint gunna happen, you watch.
