Warning: You may encounter deep cynicism in this thread.
The story so far. The Right Wing can't bully their desire for a Hard Brexit through Parliament, so they are now holding a General Election to shake up that Parliament, in the hope that they will gain a parliamentary majority from the General Election.
The thing about this is that you only need about 35% of the people to vote for you to gain a majority in Parliament. Effectively the Right Wing are looking to force through the UK into leaving Europe which is opposed by at least 50% with a vote of 35%. This is Democracy.
In the meantime, the arch Right-winger has called the victims of Grenfell, the UK's deadliest fire, dumbasses for not leaving the building despite being told by the Fire Service to stay put. A Government Minister has resigned for supporting a political colleague who deliberately undermined a rape trial. The rapist was convicted later. But thanks for than one.
And now, after only a couple of days, the campaign has descended into a spending bribery Dutch Auction. I think the latest bid for your vote is £200 Billion (that someone else will pay for of course).
We're all very proud.
