Never been a fan of Conservative's
But may actually has "balls" to lead the country I think, unlike the others...
The government are having to conform to Cameron's and Osborne's manifesto from before the last election, which was written with the view that we'd be staying in the EU. Also, as became apparent after the last budget, that manifesto is hamstringing the chancellor, most obviously when it came to NICs for the self employed.So
1. Why is this happening? (The next election was due in 2020 *check me out watching the news!* so why have it early?)

2. The stats seem to be saying people will vote conservative - so why are they bothering if they think they will win anyway?
3. Will the lady with the bad haircut still be in charge?
4. What has that Corbyn man said? Is he saying he won't run? Why not? Isn't that like what it's all about?
5. Will this effect Brexit?
Okay I think I'm done on questions for now...
Thank you!
What's the farking point in having a fixed term parliament act , designed to prevent politically opportunistic snap elections, if it can be overruled on a whim on the assumption the opposition would never be able to object ?
Nobody even wanted the farking fixed term act in the first place.
What a waste of ink.
Its now because that makes sure she gets a further 5 years in power, and they are far ahead in the polls. It also means if by any chance she loses she can walk away from brexit completely and it'll all be someone else's fault!
I know everyone says Corbyn is unelectable but I'm most likely voting labour, I can't imagine a situation where I'd vote Tory and the yella fellas proved their integrity last time round.
This is the problem isn't it, there is no credible alternative to the Conservatives who at least manage to 'appear' to be capable, even if the reality is living hell for many of the most needy in our society.
Hell would freeze over before i'd vote for this utter shower of sh*te, so I'm left with no credible party to choose .

Whats weird is that I see a lot of support for Corbyn by actual people, despite having an anti Corbyn headline thrust down my throat almost daily. Even the anti Corbyn but traditional Labour voters rarely seem to get past soundbites like 'Protest politics' or 'Terrorist sympathiser' to explain what is so bad about him. Yet despite 2 leadership contests in the bag he is still allegedly unelectable, when in my eyes compared to another 5 years of Tory rule (especially during brexit law changes) he seems the right choice.
He is the Labour leader, he won the vote, give him a chance. If he loses he'll resign, we'll be stuck with May and I'll look at emigration.
