1. The 1% haven’t haven’t had it so good. They know the tories done them proud.

2. Or put it differently only 7% think it’s better.

3. What are the other 25% drinking? Pour me a double.

4. “I bet you reckon something”

5. Yup, so why we would want to roll the dice with brexit 2.0 baffles me.

6. Better Together tho

7. Tory HQ should be looking at these results and throwing in the towel for a May election to put them out of their misery.

8. This frames it as if the tories taking over is the sole issue when in fact the decay we’re seeing is due to an economic consensus that **all major political parties adhere to** which is the actual problem.

   The austerity of the lib dem/tory coalition is only possible with the Blairite entrenchment of Thatcherism. This also applies to the SNP who’s vision of independence still relies on stripping the copper out the walls *but disputes who should get to sell it, patrons of Westminster or patrons of Holyrood*.

   We are in a terminal decline that politically is far removed from the election cycle which is a totally captured institution designed to make the public think that the only option is a lesser evil that still will make your kids worse off to appease a lobbyist for the fossil fuel industry, landlords, property developers or shadowy American think tanks

9. And still people will vote Tory and they will win and the same people will go why is it so bad.

10. A lot of people wouldn’t know it, but the Tories are the worst offenders for cross party infiltration.

11. This is extinction level event for the Tories.

12. Lol they ask like 200 people then claim its 78% of Scots

13. Why would Jeremy Corbyn do this?

14. It can’t be correct, because it’s not 72%

15. 25% are those who invested in property and now living off tenants.

16. They will still find a way to get a sizeable number of MPs elected by a combination of mud slinging and lying. They’ll also hope that the country is so cynical and in such a state that they will be invited back as the next government. Tories may be out of government by but they are never out of power.

17. But how many of those 68% con voters think it’s because they haven’t done enough batshit insane things?

18. They aren’t wrong. The country has gone to shit but don’t be fooled into thinking that things would have been better under Labour.
