Theresa May is really bad at scheming.
I mean, her plan'll probably work, but it's so blatantly obvious even The Mirror's figured it out.
Spent last 24 hours complaining on Twitter.
Don't regret it.
May's speech was basically "The public are now united after Brexit[behind me and my party]. but Westminster still has an opposition for some reason, this election will fix that."
Along with nonsense about making their position stronger in Brexit negotiations.("You can't tell me I can't have access to the single market without freedom of movement! I have a majority of over 100!")
As well as other BS.
Thanks to the collapse of UKIP support back to the Conservatives...and Labour hiding that collapse in the polling by leaking support to UKIP, this election should be a cake walk for the Conservatives.
Labour will lose support in all directions, thanks to Corbyn being insanely unpopular yet strangely producing popular policies. The Liberal Democrats will continue to attack Labour rather than the government in it's cynical attempt to replace them as HM Opposition rather actually prevent a Conservative government and hard Brexit. The SNP will win in Scotland(duh). The Greens will, again, be calling for a united front to prevent a Conservative government and fail, but may gain a few seats. Plaid will take a seat or two from Labour. Goodness knows about UKIP, guess they'll take a few Labour seats too.
It's the last opportunity we have to save our economy, NHS, environmental protections and worker rights. And boy are we going to flub it.
We're so screwed...
*Sigh*
If only the opposition parties would work together and maximise the seats they get from the shrinking pool of centrist and left of centre voters. Probably wouldn't even be able to form a working coalition, but why make the next five years easy for the Tories.
