The General Election

[borderterribles]

I have a fondness for Tim Hartford and his programme More or Less. So could not resist sharing this link.

Afraid it is the BBC again, so apologies to those on here who will now have to take one maybe two additional Norvasc or Plendil pills. I am told Yoga and meditation are also good antidotes to the BBC.

Neither Yoga or meditation are as effective antidotes to the BBC as not listening to, or watching it in the first place!

That's a shame. More or Less is jolly good listen. Am sure you would enjoy. But then to misquote the inimitable Mandy Rice-Davies 'I would say that, wouldn't I'.

Regards,

One opinion poll apparently has Labour closing the gap on the Conservatives with a week still to play. There will be a bit of panic in Conservative HQ tonight, and elsewhere....

My prediction of another hung parliament is getting more likely every day.

I agree that More or Less is a good listen. I used to be a commited R4 listener, but I grew tired of the repeats,( I can only assume that they don't expect people to listen to almost all their output). Then after an eighteen month hiatus, tuned to R4 again.
I was honestly shocked and disappointed at the degree of both overt and covert Left-wing bias that had developed over the time that I hadn't been listening.. Or maybe it was there before, but I wasn't aware of it?
This I feel is a shame in the truest sense of the word.

Brexit Party imploding? Some MEPs quitting and going over to the Tories it seems.
Should boost the Tory vote in the GE?

NO - they were Leave Tories masquerading in a cult. They see the Tory Party is now in their image and about to win a majority and thus have gone home. My concern is these Brexit MEP's - are they going to hold by elections?! I recall all the fuss from Farage etc when various politicians crossed the UK parliament houes earlier in the year. Sweeping statement - all liars and charlatans.

Ok, so which 4 forum members voted Labour?

I've already eliminated two of the stooges (myself and comrade glasshouse who wants all private property banned) but the other two are surely Russian bots?
