Good Idea Or Not

[gulliver1]

The power of Tactical voting, is this the way forward?
The public rather than political parties formed a pact to do whatever it takes keep Boris out at the Tiverton and Honiton by election, if they do the same at the G/E ....It will be curtains for the Con's shutting them out for decades.

[murraymints]

I think it is more of a consideration for people these days

[gulliver1]

And Sajid Javid is demanding that Labour and the Libs come clean if they have an election pact ..
Oh yeah just like the Tories are open with their plans .

[murraymints]

rather disingenuous of him

[Hopkirk]

It's nothing new

[gulliver1]

It is in the amount of voters who chose that option on thursday ,Hopkirk.

[Zacs-Master]

‘ The public rather than political parties formed a pact’

Did they? How did they do that, Gulli?

[gulliver1]

Boris talking from Rwanda when questioned about the by election "I understand the peoples frustration and the voters have a problem" .
........Wonder what the problem is....

[gulliver1]

08.11 Just think about Zacs . shouldn't be all that difficult.

[Zacs-Master]

He also said he would "listen and learn" and focus on "delivering for the people of this country".
He also added: "I genuinely, genuinely don't think the way forward is to focus on issues of personality whether they are mine or others.”

That’s not the talk of anyone about to resign.

[Zacs-Master]

I have thought about it hence me questioning you. A ‘pact’ requires people to pre arrange something between them. Do you seriously think everyone who voted contacted each other and arranged to vote tactically?

[gulliver1]

08.24 Internet ,Family talking to family , talking to each other at place of work, talking to each other in pubs, public meetings etc, etc . I don't give a hoot how word gets around as long as it damages Boris.

[Zacs-Master]

Yeah, but it’s not a ‘pact’. A pact is a formal agreement between individuals or parties.

[Hazi-Hammenuhoth]

What's your problem with Boris, Gulliver- you don't even live here!

[Atheist]

Why is it apparently only gulliver who is criticised for posting on UK politics because he allegedly lives abroad?

[Hazi-Hammenuhoth]

It's a daily onslaught of anti-Boris diatribe from someone who is not a British voter. I am not being critical, just asking Gulliver a question.

[Atheist]

Hazi...: There's plenty of reasons to dislike Johnson, as we saw in the two by-elections.

[Hazi-Hammenuhoth]

Of course. But that's down to the voter. Not Gully who doesn't even live in the UK.

//Why is it apparently only gulliver who is criticised for posting on UK politics because he allegedly lives abroad?//

Because a while back, during the Brexit debate, he repeatedly made such a big thing about us "Little Englander suckers" living in Little England, wanting to get our blue passports back and keep foreigners out. Meanwhile, he, sipping a Piña colada or some such concoction, from the veranda of his beach bungalow (location undisclosed), overlooking the ocean, had no such concerns.

Personally I suspect he lives in Gateshead.

[Zacs-Master]

Sunderland, I’d suggest.

If you would condemn us to be governed by an unholy coalition of union-fed Labour, Lib non-dems & 5C SNP then I would rather have the Tories thankyou.
