General Election UK, June 8th...

[pErvinalia]

But he has enough potential numbers to legally form a government if May can't. That is absolutely nothing like a "snowball's chance in hell of becoming PM". You were wrong.

[Scot Dutchy]

Everybody has potential numbers. Will it happen; no. So how am I wrong as he has no chance. Especially when his party does not want to form a coalition as this saves the embarrassment of unable to form one.

[pErvinalia]

You didn't say he has "no chance". You said he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell. You are wrong. He literally could be PM by next week. It's unlikely, but that's not the same as having "a snowball's chance in hell".

[Alan B]

As much as I like Corbyn's integrity, unless he 'pulls his horn's' in about a coalition the venal Tories will stay in power.

[Brian Peacock]

The DUP will never side with Labour.

I see that despicable liar Nuttall has resigned as leader of UKIP, paving the way for Nigel Garages return.

[Hermit]

Forget it. Unless Labour succeeds in getting cooperation from at least four other parties the Tories will be heading the next government.

Addressing pErvin now, getting cooperation from at least four other parties in order to form a new government with Corbyn as PM is practically identical to a snowball's chance in hell.

[pErvinalia]

Rubbish. We all know exactly what the hysterical regugitators of tabloid propaganda meant. They meant that Labour would get smashed. That certainly didn't happen.

Yes dear...

Well they did not win. Everybody yesterday with a bit of savvy knew they would not get smashed regardless what the Wail said. Just did better than expected. You cant have a coalition of five parties even here.

True, but my reply was aimed at your comment that "He literally could be PM by next week." That is why I replied "getting cooperation from at least four other parties in order to form a new government with Corbyn as PM is practically identical to a snowball's chance in hell."

[L'Emmerdeur]

May's putting a brave face on being forced into making a deal with DUP (anti same-sex marriage, pro banning abortion).

I'm beginning to see people here are right about you.

[Brian Peacock]

Labour have more of a chance now than at any time since their drubbings in 2010/15. They've attracted a huge number of new, engaged members, focused on policy over personality during the campaign, and made a case that the enrichment if the few shouldn't come before spending on things like essential public services, infrastructure, and house building etc. They've also moved the party back to the centre after years of playing the role of 'the purple tories' - something that turned a lot of people off and towards the dark side of, "They're all the bloody same - so what's the point."

What are you sooking about? Both of you expected Labour to get smashed. You were both wrong. And it's not entirely innocent. People of the left who fell for that bullshit that was peddled by the tabloids and Blairites have contributed to the irrational propaganda against Corbyn. Hence you've both played your part in helping him not get elected.

No no you're wrong. They won't govern for at least a decade, and more likely never again.
