Yes Den, i'll vote for Martin vickers,but i'm not claiming "I wont make up my mind until l go into the ballot room - BUT, it wont be a blue vote".
Mine will definately be a blue vote.
Well Arthur hasn't decided which non-blue vote it'll be.
However glad everybody has abandoned Farage and the the Brexit party. Doubtless he'll rise again like something difficult to flush, when folks realise that Boris's trade deal and actual Brexit will take 10 years, by which time the whole thing will have been abandoned...
Boris is Boris's only priority, ask his family or however many children/wives/blind lovers he's had (even he's lost count!)

brexit party not standing in Cleethorpes "country before party" is how Mr Farage put it i believe.
Knowing Arthur's luck he'll arrive at the polling station just after it closes.

Quote from The Sun:Mr Corbyn’s £11billion raid on oil companies’ profits could kill off 120,000 jobs and send the price of petrol soaring, according to experts.
It could be the final nail in the coffin for the hard-left leader’s hopes of becoming PM as a poll reveals Britain’s motorists are abandoning his party in their droves.
Last night a survey of more than 52,000 drivers for The Sun laid bare how unpopular the plans are.
The poll by FairFuel UK found that just seven per cent of motorists are now planning to vote Labour in next month’s election.
In contrast, 47 per cent of drivers plan to back the Tories, who are expected to announce a further freeze in fuel duty when they launch their manifesto on Sunday.
Even die-hard Labour voters said they no longer trust the party on motoring issues, with nearly four out of five traditional Labour-voting drivers saying they will abandon the party in the December 12 poll.
Motorists are also voters. From the same link:
Quote:
Oil economics expert Professor Alex Kemp, from Aberdeen University’s Business School, also called the tax “misguided”.
He said it risked our chance to “maximise economic recovery”.
And Tory Colin Clark, standing for re-election as MP for Gordon in Aberdeenshire, said: “It’s no exaggeration to say that Corbyn’s plans could turn the taps off for Scotland’s vital oil and gas industry.
“Labour’s manifesto is Scotland’s oil obituary. This windfall tax would threaten more than 100,000 jobs in Scotland — many of which are based in and around Aberdeen.”
One in the eye for Krankie then.

Motorists also aren't exempt from the catastrophic effects of climate change. At which point a making fuel more expensive will seem like a brilliant, if too late and too tame idea.
Air travel is what we really need to tax the living daylights out of. Somethings wrong if flights are cheaper than trains.

Whooops, there goes the 'online shopping' market then
Not to mention all those HGVs running up and down the country day in day out bringing goods to the local supermarkets.
Actually, thinking about it, 'buy local' may make a comeback

Oh those wonderful memories of the old corner shop on every corner.
Oh yes, and they sold almost anything you needed - unlike now where they fall over themselves to sell you stuff you don't need

I'm not quite old enough to remember those, although my dear old mum (bless her) did work on the milk/bread deliveries . . . and quite proud of it she was too

There was even a coal man and the rag and bone man in those times.

Re: Election 2019 - Week 3
I no longer trust JC, he could tell me my date of birth and i'd call him a lair.
Liebour will NEVER get my vote again.
I would vote for the BP, but they have withdrawn in favour for Tories, who I will vote for the 1st time ever.
