Presumably an election in early July will mean that there is a chance that the Criminal Justice Act, including the IDS amendments, will not have time to make it through parliament?
they do a rush job by putting everything they can through with minimal scrutiny............ what can go wrong!?!
remember applying for a postal vote still means you can drop it off at the polling station on the day so effectively hedging on whether you will / won’t be there.
Go on you spineless little ****, call it!
though that did see the return of the previous incumbent 5 yrs later!
Is it because they can only probably get 1 rwandan flight total around say 1st July ?
Inflation at a low they’re feast on that on their broadcasts, completely ignoring the high they had.
It's on like donkey Kong
it's going to be in the rain after all
If you have a postal vote, don’t delay sending it!
Another note about votes (based on my role in counting votes for the EMCCA Mayoral election).
Don't spoil it, don't vote for the "joke candidate just for a laugh", don't write anything funny or rude on it.
It doesn't "send a message"; the only person reading it is some poor harassed Count Assistant and it goes into a polling box marked "spoiled".
No-one else reads it, the Prime Minister doesn't get to see your witticisms, your local MP doesn't get to see that you've called them a ****.
Literally the only thing that "sends a message" is a cross in the correct box!
I wondered if the Tories have considered the negative impact of calling it on 4th July, independence day?
I can imagine the memes and posters Labour can come up with on this! !😂
Independence from a tyrannical party/aliens etc.
Hold on guys, apart from from obviously great memes to come, this is going to get nasty, with the Tories throwing all the shit and division they can at this to mitigate an extinction level theat.
I can honestly see an MP getting into bother out of the streets whilst campaigning.
Going to be a long Summer...
Lol on the sound bombing
LOLOCOPTERZ
Is Rishi D:Reaming?!
Sunak getting drowned by the rain & drowned out by D-Ream
What happened to the geezer with the brolly?
don't let the door hit you on the way out
Party political broadcast.
T*wt
Bingo, I win! 🤑😜😜🤣
Was D:ream supposed to be inspiring him/us or was someone trolling him by playing their car stereo loud! 😆😆😆
Is the music deliberate? Was that not newlabours soundtrack?
Oh **** off! Seriously, get the **** out and shut up before I fill my ****ing swear jar. What a ****ing pile of horseshit coming out of his mouth.
That's one of the funniest outside broadcasts I've seen anywhere 🤣
Bored now. Turned him off. Loved the 'Things will Only Get Better' soundtrack though.
I like the Great British Weather.
sounds like infected blood compo legislation wont get through in time though
perhaps they've got a deal with reformUK 😕
When Labour win will the BBC sack Kuenssberg? She is a ghastly Tory shill
The PA outside No. 10 playing D:Ream was absolutely brilliant, chapeau to whoever did that. And it took the police absolutely ages to move them on. And then they started singing the same song!
What a fitting start to ex-PM Rishi's campaign 😀
I think we will look back at this announcement, in the pouring rain and see at as a rather obvious bad omen for the Tories.
I hope I'm right!
