Sir Ed Davey: Lib Dems key to ending Conservative rule

[Thomas]

I did point out the flawed nature of 'tactical voting' sites, there is a grain of truth to the claim that they helped the Tories win in all fairness.

However, in papa's case I'm fairly certain the Tory margin was way too high for there to be any competition any which way, but I may be wrong.

Possibly , but i do like to point out these little things to our intrepid tory housing market entrepeneur pappy smurf.

The socialist workers of truro have just been on the phone after hearing about pappy smurfs liberal vote helping the local tory , and have told him not to bother coming back.

That is either highly dishonest or wilfully misunderstood bollocks of a kind we have come to expect from our Tory-loving aberration of an angry Scot SNP guy.

Voting Lib Dem instead of Labour might have helped the Tories in seats where only Labour could have defeated them. But not in seats where Labour stood no chance anyway and the Lib Dems were the only effective challengers, as in Papasmurf's seat. In seats such as his it was the only viable anti-Tory vote.

If you had any political integrity, honesty, and common sense, you would understand that.

i know humour and leg pulling is way over your head , but it was a wee bit of piss taking wiht smurf with a grain of truth.

I know you in labour suffer from short term memory loss, but the liberals were being massively criticised last november before the election for standing candidates in seats where the had little chance of winning and splitting the remain vote in favour of the tories.

Both labour and pro remain voters were largely vocal on the issue.

I dont know what constituency smurf is in except somewhere in cornwall , and i dont really give a feck either.

There were only twenty two uk wide seats that polling guru sir john curtice predicted the liberals woul come any where near challenging in prior to the election in december , while clueless muppet jo swinson was at one stage predicting the liberals would sweep the remain vote in england , and what happened?

The snp took that muppet swinson out in dunbartonshire ,  while her party couldnt even expand on their dismall performance of the previous election , but actually went one worse.

Do try to keep up steve.

i think from memory at the last election polling companies analysed those voting lib dem especially in england and it turned out lib dem votes helped the tories  win many seats across englandshire.

So well done you pappy. You helped put the conservatives in power in england.

You cannot be serious. The LibDems are the most conniving, duplicitous, self serving group of hypocrites to ever get win seats in parliament, even overshadowing the Sinn Fein scum...

I am VERY serious, the Tories are so nasty, callous, and incompetent  they are not fit for public office.

The Lib Dems helped the Tories to victory again. Now they should disband

Last week's crushing defeat of the left was also caused by the Liberal Democrat party splitting the vote. Yet again, by offering itself as the vote launderer of British liberalism, it has served as merely the fellow traveller of British Conservatism. Boris Johnson owes it a huge debt of gratitude

Where I live is a Tory marginal with the Lib-Dems a close 2nd. So I don't have any choice but to vote Lib-Dem tactically.

Considering the LDs only period in power ,of modern times was to engage in a Junior position of coalition with the Tory party . This can only reflect on how conniving , duplicitous , self serving  ,the hypocrites, that are still running the country are.  It has to be a case of choice of two evils at the very least when only one or the other can win that seat.

Shame really, they were pretty good under Farron, he's one of the few party leaders other than Corbyn and Sturgeon who I had time for.

His reason for standing down was a conflict between is Christian beliefs and political leadership. Says it all really. I guess there is little honesty/integrity in politics.

Can you blame it all on politics though? Is his integrity /honesty any more insured in religion?  Or can we take it religion has the whip hand in these matters?

Not in religion itself it's true, but in the individual's faith, knowledge and belief in the consequences.

[Good old]

My part of the world is a safe Tory seat , voting anything else is nothing more than a protest here. Sir Ed is all right for a protest.

Currently my constituency is held by that Tory arse Johnny Mercer,

Who recently got a head injury because apparently he was not wearing head protection when he should have been when kayaking in a river and capsized.
(The media appears not to know a Kayak is not a Canoe.)
