This is what I don't understand about people who vote for Corbyn. They see all these people in need. But they're not prepared to pay a penny more in tax themselves. Someone else whom they've decided in sufficiently rich can pay.
How do you know they're not happy to pay more tax??0 -
Couple of points
1. What have his sexual preferences / morals got to do with his ability to run the country
2. all politicians lie and bend the truth - Corbyn lied - remember the ram packed train and the queens speech
3. there are no functioning socialist countries where the people do not suffer0 -

Because if they voted for Corbyn, they didn't vote for the party which said they'd raise income tax by 1 p for everyone in order to pay for improvements to the NHS and social care."Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance" - Confucius0 -
You actually want a prime minister who behaves like a buffoon, lies habitually, and has the sexual morals of an alley cat?
Surely, even the most ardent Conservative Brexiteer wants someone with a bit more integrity than Boris?
Sorry, im not sure which result you are suggesting i would have preferred?Im A Budding Neil Woodford.0 -

It does highlight how bad Corbyn, his policies and what he stood for were, for someone like Boris to be able to win such a landslide doesn't it?Every generation blames the one before...

You said that you couldn't be happier. Consequently, you must want a PM with all Boris's bad characteristics. That seems a weird thing to wish for.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

There wasnt an outcome from the election that would have made me happier than a stonking Conservative majority.
As for Boris, your views on him arent shared by me. Yes there are plenty of Tory MPs i would prefer as leader, but I still like the guy.Im A Budding Neil Woodford.0 -

I wonder whether you will still think so highly of him in a couple of years, when you have seen more of him?No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

Thoroughly agree.
The other option however, was someone who had a tax plan not fit for civilization, seemed unable to handle blatant anti antisemitism within his own party, and shared a stage with terrorists who blow people up.
Want my house when I die do you Corbyn? I don't think so. Off you go now.0 -

The alternatives were worse in my, and many other's opinions0
