I don’t think this situation will endure until late 2024. It will be less than a year from now, probably no later than about August.
Rishi is leading a zombie government and everyone has had enough.
>Rishi Sunak told the Spectator: “The choice at the next election is between me and Keir Starmer. A Labour party that wants to borrow £28 billion a year is not going to control welfare or public spending. A Conservative party is going to do those things – and cut your taxes instead”.
Lololol are the crazy bastards actually going to try to fight the election on the economy? I’m going to need more flavours of popcorn.
About bloody time, the only question now is exactly how much legitimacy they’re going to lend to the far right in their desperate attempt to claw back a few votes from Reform. They’ve clearly decided that the only issue they can even talk about is immigration and even then they’re going to be slaughtered on that issue so rather than dying with a whimper they’re going to drive loads of voters into the arms of the far right by whipping up the public into a panic about immigrants in the run up to the election.
The alternative would be admitting that austerity policies and their intentional undermining of public services are what got us into this mess, but that would involve putting what’s good for the country before what’s good for the party.
So the cretin has moved the end of times by one month. Whooopeee.
Roland Rat will be lucky to still be PM in six months.
Almost certainly going to be sometime from May to July. Considering the absolute trouncing they are currently facing they wouldn’t dare risk an election during colder months when their primary targets might not venture out due to inclement weather.
Short of figuring out a way to make pigeons shit gold, there is absolutely nothing in the offing they could use to call a snap election with a hope of holding a majority.
I’d put my money on September/October. They won’t go any later because the cold keeps the octogenarians at home, plus the further they push it, the closer they can get it to the US election in November. Trump is polling more and more favourably, and if he wins it’ll ensure maximum shithousery for Labour.
In other words, he’s under extreme pressure from all sides of his own party on this Rwanda thing and fears a leadership challenge as soon as parliament returns in Jan.
At which point Rishi’ll call a snap election and spend the next few months on the election rally circuit giving it all the “Make Britain Great Again” tub-thumping Trumpian bollocks instead of pretending to give even the tiniest shite about guiding his citizens through the many and continual shitstorms he and his fellow wankers have inflicted on them for nearly 15 years.
Despicable cunt
Okay so the election is happening in January 2025 then.
Or are there people here who think Sunak is capable of honesty?
Boat crossings are at their peak in the summer. Would be stupid for them to plan it during or just after a surge like that. Also the longer they wait, the more people who come off fixed rate mortgages and get hit hard – and homeowners are one of their core voter bases
My bet is May. That will allow them to set a trap budget in April, too
Even if tories win, which I’m hoping they don’t, rishi’s premiership is in numbered days.
Voting for tories is voting for cuts to public services, which is paying more for less police, fire, ambulance and hospitals, schools, highways, investments
Bad move across the board
Unelected and unelectable troglodyte would mercifully allow elections… exactly what I wanted to read about today 😀
Yeah he just owns he’s been out at the head of a sinking ship and he only needs between now and then to make sure his continued looting of the country continues.
We only had a decade to fix the economy and get rid of debt. We just didn’t cut hard enough for long enough.
Join us for perpetual austerity.we have the same plan but with a brown face.
The Tory Party
Reform is getting my vote. Fuck Labour and the Tories.
What a non-story. Nobody expects him to want to campaign over Christmas?
Some are predicting May because the economy is expected to remain weak all year and the supposedly all important small boats issue won’t get any better.
He might be lying, this group of greedy and morally corrupt business people pretending to be politicians has form
This was always obvious. A January election was never realistically on the cards, whatever tiny chance you have of a massive Labour scandal is massively outweighed by having to tell all your MPs and campaign staff, already feeling somewhat hopeless about your chances, that they’ve got to work all over Christmas. Add in the fact that the public generally dont want their nice Christmas television interrupted by election coverage and would resent you for it.
They’d be wiser to call it sooner rather than later imo. They’ve tried every dirty trick in the book to regain some ground and nothing has worked. They just lose more votes by the month the longer they wait the heavier the defeat.
