I love how this thread keeps making it's way back round to Corbyn, I suppose that's the three guarantees you get in life, death, taxation, and all political conversations will turn into whinging about Corbyn. (cue predictable 'joke' about high taxation under Corbyn *Yawwwn)
Living in the home counties I know plenty of Tory Moderates who are unhappy about Boris getting in.
How do people feel about Boris, the Steve Bannon connection and his brown nosing of Trump? so much for British Sovereignty.
I tend to agree with your sentiments and the questions I ask of my Tory-voting F&F is ' how bad do you want things to be before Corbyn's policies of trying to get more fairness and balance into our country, feels viable for you?
How many sick & homeless people, children that are below poverty levels and stories that UK can't afford anything different does it need'.
Would we rather give up a working relationship with our biggest trading partner (by far) in lieu of allowing a fawning PM to then allow the likes of Trump to suck the value from our NHS? Ask yourselves why Trump supports Johnson and berates Corbyn?
Do we really think Boris Johnson's interests lie with his country when his first mention has been to reduce tax thresholds for the most wealthy to pander to his minority of supporters? In this really our country's priority?
Do we really want a country where the Establishment is corruptly undemocratic and MSM all seemingly stacked against the left wing parties whilst Tory government brings growing crisis and calamity?
Do we really want right wing extremists dictating the nation with their hateful and divisive traits that Theresa May supported through her tenure as HS and PM? With Trump and now Johnson, the genie is really out of the lamp with growing confidence and open racism - it will take a good man or woman to force that genie back. If we thing things are fine and the left wing are over reacting, do we feel the same when our parents and grand parents defended UK against Nazi oppression in 1930/40s?
I agree that Labour are not in good shape however I try to focus on manifesto and policies rather than individual personalities that can and will change over time, including Johnson, Corbyn and most certainly, Trump. Every time the incumbent government is questioned and attempts are made to hold them to account, the boring rhetoric repeatedly bounces back about Corbyn as a pathetic smoke screen.
For those that will never ever leave their Tory loyalties whatever happens, which policies of trying to balance more
fairness and humanity into our country that Labour (and others) are selling, are so unpalatable to you and yours?
Scandanavian countries have lived with coalition for may years, have high taxation, high standards of living and welfare yet are reported as being the happiest peoples and places to live in the world? I have no personal experience of living in Sweden or Denmark yet when I hear that UK can't afford for things to be better for the 5/6th richest nation in the world, I don't believe it!
