Yawn.

I'd happily put up with any X amount of U-Turns, than a IRA supporting Mad old fool. A Racist, who cannot count and many other hopeless fools residing on the Shadow front benches.

If you're reliant on the NHS, there's one party you shouldn't vote for. Political neutrality prevents me from stating who that is , so you might have to work it out for yourself. Whatever, make sure you do vote.

Re: June 8th General Election

These interviews on the BBC/Sky are so much better than debates.

I agree. Looking forward to Corbyn's examination by Andrew Neil.

May is squirming a little about Andrew Neil pressing her on her U-Turns. When she struggles, she falls back on the "strong", "stable" mantra ...

Hardly inspiring ..

He is quick to call on May's temperament, but he is that careless, he forgets past transgressions of himself....

Michael Crick from Channel 4 suggested the u-turn showed the prime minister “weak and wobbly”.

Re: June 8th General Election

If Labour are smart they'll sit him down all of Thursday and go after him on the IRA,Hamas, Argentina and so on. One advantage Corbyn has is very low expectations.

If Labour were that smart Crobyn wouldn't be leader and their front bench crammed full of useless idiots.

Applying to the term 'Idiots' on them, is a far too generous complement.

She really needs a better set of advisers.

They were doing really well, then they publish a Manifesto that reads like a self destruct manual.

How could anyone think that that social care policy, or the drop free school meals policy, would go down well with people.

I know at least four people in the last few days who have switched due to the school meals policy. God help us all if Corbyn gets in.

The issue I've read is that Theresa doesn't consult further than her advisers Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill. John Godfrey, the head of the number 10 policy unit and Sir Andrew Dilnot, who advised David Cameron both recommended a cap on costs, but Theresa May did not take their advice.
