According to you, its because they are idiots; a mass epidemic of ignorance has occurred in the space of just a few years. No, the sensible, intelligent answer is obvious - JEREMY CORBYN and his comrade armchair revolutionary’s promising outlandish goodies to the young people he targeted and who followed him like a cult. Wiser heads looked at him and his history, those who he befriended, his failure to reassure people he would keep their streets safe, his ever more unbelievable manifesto. There is a reason why Labour has languished in opposition for long periods in the last century, but Corbyn and his clique were stupid enough to think that an even more radical programme than usual would work.
They kept making the same mistakes and expecting a different outcome.
As the leader of the party, the failure lies with him. That’s what leaders are supposed to do, lead their team to success! Unless you see him as just a weak figurehead?
The wise general public hadn’t much of a choice. To keep out evil, so to speak, they had to vote for the lesser evil, by far. And they did with bells on.

There is no point in discussing anything with you, it all begins and ends with Corbyn when it comes to you to the point that his mere presence somehow makes it so that the entire public are not responsible for their own choices because it's all Corbyn's fault. Utterly ridiculous.
People made their choices based on nothing but propaganda, they gave the Tories a landslide win out of nothing but wilful ignorance. I live in Toryville despite the area being working class at heart. I've had poilitical conversations with plenty of people and it all goes the same way, they don't want to hear facts about the Tories that paint them in a bad light and they hate labour because the papers told them to. People are responsible for their own idiotic choices. Many voters chose to be ignorant and so I shall laugh in their faces when their choices bite them in the arse and they suffer the consequences for their ignorance.
Grown ass people made a terrible choice and they will hold the responsibility for that decision and you will not try to alleviate blame from them by blaming a losing party. The information was out there, the facts were damning of the Tories and people chose not to listen. They have no one to blame but themselves.
You speak of 'wiser heads' but I've yet to see anything to support that beyond 'CORBYN BAD! WE BLAME OUR BAD DECISIONS ON HIM!'. It is scapegoating pure and simple, people are responsible for their own votes and when they vote poorly they are free game for criticism.
The reason why Tories have gotten stronger since 2016 is because we are living in an age where the facts no longer matter. We live in a Trump era world where you can ignore facts that go against your beliefs and the idiot rags are becoming more like state propaganda every day. It's not a sudden thing, it didn't happen over night, it's been happening for years and this election is proof of that. People are cattle that willingly voted for the slaughterhouse. |
