Nobody. They’ve no allies and without a majority would be toast. Unless of course TBP got some seats. I don’t imagine anyone’s holding their breathe for that though.

nige standing in labour seats will actually benefit labour as more tory swine vote for brexit than labour ever will. the real issue is how many seats will the tory swine lose. if 8,000 majority is not enough to hold on to a seat, it puts over 100 tory seats in the hands of labour and liberals

The reason why you are going down Lordo is because Corbynov has to be the most hated politician in the UK, and Swineston the most insufferable.

One can hold their nose and vote for a politician who may be disliked much easier than vote for a destructive and deceptive party like the Tories who own Brexit. If people are truly against Brexit, then the Tories are toast. If they are for Brexit, then the Labour and Liberal Democrats are toast. This GE is not about individual politicians, but ALL about Brexit.


Boris is on 42% according to the polls Kikakpu.

And the destructive thing that has occured for the last 3.5 years is Parliament pitting against the sovereign people of the UK.

Alexander Downer, Australia’s former High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, has declared that Australia would have to “substantially reduce” vital intelligence sharing with the UK in the event of a Corbyn premiership. Australia is one of the ‘five eyes’ nations which undertake incredibly close anti-terrorism intelligence sharing between the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. If Australia were to step back from the UK it’s likely the other countries in the alliance would do the same. Speaking to the National Press Club in Canberra, Downer said:

“Under a Corbyn government, they will abandon the support for the Western Alliance and steer a completely different foreign policy and security policy direction to such an extent that I think we would be unwise to continue the intelligence-sharing relationship with a Corbyn-led Britain of the kind that we’ve had … under Gordon Brown and Tony Blair and so on over the years.

“I think that would have to change. So I’m hoping, unusually … you will be surprised to hear me say this, that Boris Johnson wins the election on the twelfth of December. I think it is important to us as Australians.”

‘Five eyes’ is at the heart of the Western security alliance, it is has always been inconceivable that the alliance between the firmest of friends would ever be severed. That, understandably, can not be compromised by being shared with people who read and take their line from the Morning Star every morning….


:lol: :lol: :lol:


Yes indeed!

We would have no choice but to restrict our Intelligence and Military cooperation with a country that seems to cosy with terrorists.

Corbynov would be a security risk

Downer has very little credibility by being on the take from Turkey when he was an UN envoy for Cyprus talks.

He is more suited shagging Kangaroos in Australia than knowing much about intelligence sharing between "Five Eyes" nations. :D


Downer is the Consul General to the UK.

He is kind of implicated in the Russian Collusion case in the USA right now because he reported Papadopoulos to Australian and and US Security Services (ASIO, CIA) about American Diplomats holding meetings with Russian Deep state officials.

So Downer would know all about Corbynov and so would Australian Intelligence.

In fact I am quite suspicious that Downer is an apparatchik of Australian Intelligence these days and at a very high level. In other words I think he could be a Australian spy.

He seems to be too knowledgeable about stuff and very willing to speak out as well about the US Elections. Trump has tried to get information from him by asking Australian PM to force Downer to reveal everything he knows and Australian PM avoiding the subject rather intelligently.

It was really a funny situation where Australian PM was at a State Dinner in Washington and Trump kept referring to Downer because of what Downer revealed to Australian and US intelligence and that Trump may want Downer as a witness. The Australian PM didn't respond.

You will also remember Downer was going to be Australian Ambassador to the US but they diverted him to the UK at the last minute.

...or possible?


A minority Government?

How is that possible when Tories will have a majority of seats? Are you suggesting that the UK disrespect the vote of the people again?

Johnson doesn't need support from other parties to form a Government.

He is likely to win all his current seats he holds and at worse case scenario lose 3 to 4 of them, but gain at the minimum 40 seats from Labor and Lib Democrats at the worse case scenario to up to 70 to 100 more seats.

it will be very interesting to see the tory votego down by 1.5 million to 12 million and labour go up by 1.5 to 14.3 million. now that will be magic with about 60 to 100 majority.

Nige has just withdrawn from all the seats the Tories are actually contesting and look likely to win and take from Labor.

So the real question is how many seats the Labor traitors are going to lose!
