Austerity is just controlled poverty. It would work if they not just obviously giving contracts for government stuff to their mates and getting kickbacks.

It's all so obvious and they are laughing at the common people because we are powerless to anything about it (E.g. carillion collapsing with the ceos earning millions)

I thought the tories already declared and end to Austerity?

Its interesting you mention it though, as according to The Sun I saw at Asda today, apparently BoJo is promising to end it (again) after he 'sorts Brexit out'. The stuff in The Sun and the Daily Mail is incredibly persuasive, especially emotionally, until you start trying to verify the claims ('Rampant antisemitism', costs, budgets, promises which are made in duplicate each political cycle and never delivered, etc).

So are the elites still dangling brexit in front of the common people as something they will maybe do for them when they feel like it?

Exactly. It's sad more than anything. It's astounding how passionate yet how uninformed the majority of people who read these rags are. Alas opposing either sides views is seen as an attack or calling them stupid.

Austerity is a the tories brainchild. Poor people appreciate scraps from the table more and are easier to make angry and be set on minorities like a gaurd dog.

Trump got that wall built yet? Or is it still stuck being built in Colorado?

Basically if Boris gets a decent majority in Parliament, we will have left* by the end of January 2020. Any other result and Brexit won't happen imo.

*I know we'll only be in the "transition" period, which is pretty awful as we're subject to many of the controls that EU member states are, but we will have technically left.

You are correct in pointing out our failure with the wall. That’s similar but not quite as bad imo. You guys voted directly on brexit and you’re getting cucked. We voted for trump not the wall. It’s still not a good look that the wall is going up extremely slow at best but I don’t think it’s quite as bad as voting directly for brexit only for your elites to say nope that does t work out for us.

Tory MP candidate caught getting friend to pose as anti-Labour swing voter as party's disinformation campaign continues.

Lee Anderson, who is standing for the Tories in Ashfield in Nottinghamshire, forgot he was wearing a live microphone while he phoned his friend to set up the fake encounter to impress a journalist. “Make out you know who I am, you know I’m the candidate, but not a friend, alright?” Anderson was recorded saying as he spelled out instructions to his friend minutes before bringing a journalist to his door.

Here's the video of the encounter without the anti-adblock. Absolutely hilarious.
