Strong and Stable" advertising van blows over motorway.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/elec…

It sounds like a prank but apparently it's true. The Conservative Party's "Strong and Stable" van blew over in high winds on a motorway.

Such an appropriate metaphor for the Tory's General Election campaign.

The inclement weather assisted Corbyn though. With a double rainbow appearing during his rally in Birmingham. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...peech-10573867

Page not found...I hope the driver was ok too.

I get that it seems 'funny' but people could have been injured :/

Social media users mocked the Tories' "strong and stable" slogan after a party advertising van overturned on a windy motorway.

Nobody was injured in the accident.

The van, which displays the words, "For the best Brexit deal vote Conservative on 8th June", turned on its side as it was driving north along the M6 between Lymm and Woolston.

Glad that nobody was injured in the most metaphoric event in British history

Look at the tremendous record of this Tory chance. Karl McCartney of Lincoln:

http://thelincolnite.co.uk/2017/06/c...as-lincoln-mp/

He has refused to take part in any debates, or to be interviewed, claiming BBC bias. He was also one of the MPs investigated for election fraud, though he has not been charged.

The fact that he has claimed over 880 thousand pounds in expenses over 6 years and he employs his wife on 40 plus grand a year is making him particularly popular, as is his voting record.

Basically a real life Alan B'stard.

My drug dealer has less phones than some of these people.

"If this was Diane Abbott" Case #4756

Boris Johnson has attacked Jeremy Corbyn for voting against anti-terror laws – despite the fact that the now-Foreign Secretary opposed some of the exact same legislation

Desperate times

Johnson is just as bad as Abbott tbh, he is a clown and always has been. Quite how he managed to be Foreign Secretary I don't bloody know. \

So many being caught out though in their campaign against Corbyn. Don't remember who it was now but a few weeks back I watched some Tory being interviewed and saying how horrendous he found something Corbyn has apparently said, only to be told that it was not infact Corbyn who had said this, it was Boris Johnson. Guy being interviewed got really flustered then decided he couldn't comment further as he didn't have the quote infront of him...

The witch hunt against Corbyn has really been a sight to behold. Presswise, Rupert Murdoch has really been crapping his pants at the prospect of tax loopholes being sorted and his own tax levels being raised a bit (well, raised a lot if he cannot wiggle out of paying his fair share anymore). The misquoting and sometimes outright lies that have been front page near everyday is ridiculous. I am sick to the back teeth of seeing this 'shoot to kill' and such repeated continually when its been proven to be misquoted (BBC even stated that their reporter misrepresented this, yet right wing rags have still repeated 600 times) and Corbyn has on many occasions clarified his views on shoot to kill. But the lies continue anyway.

Hell. A few days back I read an article in the Torygraph that its headline claimed Corbyn has refused to condemn the IRA bombing, and in the very same article they quoted Corbyn...condemning the IRA bombing

As the broadcast media and their websites can not discuss the election on polling day, do the Mods / Admins need to lock this thread for Polling Day? They can then unlock it on Friday after most of the results are known.

Nope, pretty sure we don't. Forums and such are classed as social media as far as I am aware, and any attempt to gag social media on polling day would be laughed at

Is he my arse I'll move before that happens!

[Sticks]

Prediction for tomorrow, Jeremy Corbyn will be lucky to keep his own seat if at all

Liberal Democrats wiped out once and for all as the unstoppable blue landslide marches on.

Labour safe seats falling like dominos until there are only a handful, if that

SNP and Plaid also wiped out by the tide of blue

Theresa has 200+ to 300+ majority

Later
Hard brexit and no deal, EU nationals deported en mass

Razor wire across the border between Northenr Ireland and Southern Ireland

Statues of Theresa May in every town where it will be a criminal offence not to pay homage to our great leader and shout "ALL HAIL THERESA MAY, SAVIOUR OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE!!!" on Theresa Day

Well that seems to be what the polls are saying

Who cares anyway, playing Call of Duty on the X-Box is far more important than going out to vote, isn't it

I'd say its satire but with Theresa anything is possible
