The Daily Telegraph is very worried that Boris will lose, even that Lenin will win. It's depressing.

The terms for a SNP/Lib Dem/Labour coalition according to Nicola Sturgeon and friendsBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: NOVEMBER 29, 2019I do not predict UK election results where I am taking part. The SNP and Lib Dems do, and are predicting a hung Parliament.  I see the polls as others do, and read that there could still be a hung Parliament where post election deals would decide how we are governed.  I hope that is not the outcome, given the disastrous last months of the last Parliament where no-one had a majority.Meanwhile some parties are telling us how they would behave if the electorate voted for another stalemate.  Nicola Sturgeon has set out her terms to allow a Labour minority government to take office. She wants an early second referendum on Scottish independence, the removal of Trident submarines from Scotland and more money for the NHS.  Jeremy Corbyn probably agrees with the second and third, and Labour would doubtless finesse the issue of another referendum in order to get Labour into government.Jo Swinson seems to have abandoned her rhetoric of expecting a Lib Dem majority. Whilst playing hard to get she has made it crystal clear she would not want to help a minority Conservative government, so it only leaves one option of Labour into office . It might well not be a coalition, but just allowing them to win confidence votes would be sufficient for Labour to take over.The push for a second Independence referendum in Scotland would be disruptive. It would establish the idea that governments only accept referendum decisions they like and make people vote and vote again to get a reversal. It would invite further uncertainty over Brexit, with the parties concerned wanting a second referendum on that as well. It would plunge the country into another two years or more of constitutional wrangling and confusion, undermine  business confidence and get in the way of the new Parliament doing thigs to improve public services, grow the economy and pursue an strong and consistent  foreign and trade policy.Now is the time for a clear decision. We need a majority government  to move on from Brexit and to remind the SNP they had their referendum and promised to accept its result.

Brexit LIVE: ‘Powerful forces’ plot to stop Brexiteers taking control – PM adviser resigns


BORIS JOHNSON’s senior adviser Dominic Cummings has claimed there is a “powerful network” plotting to stop Brexit.


Mr Cummings, who is widely regarded as the ‘mastermind’ behind 2016 EU referendum

result, has reportedly resigned from his top role at Downing Street, according to

cabinet office sources. The Brexiteer “resigned following the dissolution of

Parliament” on November 6, sources told the BBC. The resignation of special

advisors (SPADS) is common practice during a general election period.


In his resurrected personal blog, Mr Cummings blasted Remainer MPs for trying to

overturn the result of the EU referendum by using all means possible, including

legal action.

He wrote: “A powerful network did all they could to stop Brexit and make a pro-

Brexit government impossible.

“Billionaires hired lawyers — some of them the same charlatans who spread fake

news about Vote Leave and Russia for three years — to write legislation and start

legal cases to force delay, hoping that delay would bring the chance for another

referendum.”

He also suggested some lawmakers would stop at nothing to ensure their political

survival.


It’s clear that many of these powerful insiders who promised to respect the

referendum will do absolutely anything to keep their grip on power and money,” he

said.

“They will do anything to stop YOU, normal voters, from taking back control OF

THEM.”

Mr Cummings also issued a warning to pro-Brexit voters, suggesting their “heroic

efforts” to back Leave in 2016 could prove fruitless if the Tories fail to win a

majority in the election on December 12.

He claimed there was a “real possibility” of a hung Parliament in 14 days’ time,

despite several polls putting the Conservatives in a commanding lead over Labour.

In a message to Leave supporters, Mr Cummings urged them to whip up support for

the Tories among their social circles in an effort to avoid a Labour-SNP

government who would “cheat” in a second EU referendum by allowing foreigners to

vote in the UK.

He wrote: "Tell your family and friends face-to-face: If Boris doesn’t get a

majority, then Corbyn and Sturgeon will control the Government.

“Their official policy is to give the vote to millions of foreign citizens to

cheat their second referendum.

There's A LOT of people who have been waiting a long time for a PM with some "dark age" attitudes"

Dark age attitudes?

me.elbee. I don't think is just about politics, the kids rule the roost now, there is no fear or consequences in schools today. The kids do what they like, when they like. The bad ones get kicked around numerous schools, it's like a merry go round"

Standards slipped as soon as they ended corporal punishment.
That is why kids are out of control, rule the roost, and fear nothing.

Corporal punishment ends "kids doing what they like,when they like - history proved that up until the point CP was abolished.


"willoicc28 Nov '19 - 14:19 - 284252 of 284275
Standards in schools have dropped due to left-wing theories imposed by left-wing teachers. For example, they have decided that it is not important to worry about the different meanings of Their, There and They're or Where, were and wear."

This as well....but abolition of CP was the big one.
