Now that the UK has announced a Genital Election, I'm really looking forward to all the political content coming our way.

This isn't even sarcasm. I love a UK election.

See, this sort of content is great. A bunch of people who always vote Tory being asked if they will still vote Tory and they mostly will.

@matt She always voted Labour yet advocated for fascist tory Enoch Powell. If she had a brain, she'd vote Reform. But she hasn't. You just despair.
@matt Are you just trying to make me feel bad with this thread. I dispair watching all this, honestly. 😢
@ruario It’s the state of the nation 😘
@matt It makes me not want to live there… oh wait… I don't.
@ruario I should interleave the videos with ones like this one to make you feel better about the place: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrTbhOYTLeE

@matt Why can't he spell velotityty? It's so easy! 🤷

@matt "help us, we're being replaced!"

Cool, I could live without Farage trolls worrying about the breeding rates of the Young.

@matt
01:20 onwards

""...because labour have nothing to give, - when i voted labour ,my dad were labour, all of Leigh were labour, we've always been labour, but this is not labour now, this is just another version of conservatives where they dont give a...they couldn't care less""

When #labour offer no representation, no change and no hope, people look elsewhere - whether #tory or #brexit, #Galloway, #reform #farage - sadly all packaged with #racism or social conservatism

@matt
I am not excusing the racism but its important to listen to people - i had a #reform canvasser - there was much he said that I, and people on the left would 100% agree with - his description of the state of politics, the destruction of UK manufacturing, zero hour contracts, NHS, housing .....everything

What we dont agree on is who is to blame
He did concede that "foreigners" were not responsible for #thatcher's industrial policy .....its a start

@matt God, what an embarrassment these people are.
@matt
Wow, that's worrying 😐
Totally demolished all of the caller's assertions and yet he went away clinging to the moral high ground.
We're doomed 🤷‍♂️

@matt I endured all 21 minutes of this (although I'm not O'Brien's biggest fan). I was about to exclaim 'Unbelievable' but sadly I wasn't surprised. I think there's a sizeable number of idiots incapable of reasoned arguments and critical thinking - just like this chap.

My favourite bit was:-

O'Brien: Sorry - you saying that Sadiq Khan is going to institute Sharia Law in the UK ?'

Idiot: 'Well, err, yes. He said it'.

O#Brien: 'Sorry, when is this coming in ?

Just like a Stewart Lee sketch.

@andyc I liked the reveal that Shakira Law was announced via an image posted on Facebook.

And when O’Brien asked how he fact checked that post, the caller had nothing.
