Well, here we are, very soon we will see if the polls were accurate.

I actually have some sympathy with the rest of your post but this particular point has to be addressed. Some Immigrants pay into the system. Ones from the EU for example contribute more than they take out. But others do not. Never quite understood why the Remain types never made more of this. I get why we need more migrants coming into the country, a stance that puts me at odds with many on the Leave side. And it is for the best that those come from EU nations for a variety of reasons. Problem with the Left is that they try and soft-coat the issue rather than being honest with people. If you would rather have two holidays a year and a new car every three rather than make the sacrifice and have kids then the UK needs to find new blood from somewhere. Better those come from Europe than elsewhere. On average both parents have to work,! Can you see the issue?

Vote CONSERVATIVE tomorrow and stop Corbyn entering No 10.He is a marxist, an IRA supporter and a friend of other terrorist organisations, whose is hell-bent on overthrowing capitalism and inflicting his ruinous policies on our great nation. His 'Change' is a recipe for ruin,nationalise utilities,soak businesses and middle earners with new taxes and fund a National Investment Bank with £250 BILLION of borrowed money. Not forgetting confiscating 10% of shares in large companies etc etc etc.It really is the economics of the madhouse.Labour would plunge this country into the abyss.Comrade Corbyn would be in coalition with the SNP, hell-bent on breaking up the union. Corbyn would destroy our economy and great country so I would urge one and all to vote CONSERVATIVE tomorrow.A vote for anyone else is a vote for Corbyn's marxist nightmare and a further dither and delay over Brexit with the affect this has on business. Nothing more to add - I have a very busy day tomorrow. Edited by Willo (11 Dec 2019 11.04pm) Your last battle call and not even one mention of what the Tories are offering - I think that says it all.

Well here we are and I suspect most of us are probably thinking thank god if I see one more politician on the TV....
Whilst I am looking forward to the result I am also curious to know what happens to the defectors. Many of course cut and run knowing they would be trounced by an angry electorate however I hope some journalist will do an article about how each of the remainers (geddit) fared. Still all to play for, well for the next 12 hours anyway.
One more point |

Why did a conservative lady ask for my polling card number outside the voting station? What data are they collecting and for what purpose? Do all the parties do this? Do they divide the task up between them?

The Conservative policies have been well documented for all to see and I really don't have to repeat the manifesto on HOL. My comments were made to illustrate my disdain for Corbyn and the Labour party.We really cannot sleepwalk into a catastrophe and plunge our great nation into the greatest crisis since the war. On that note I have to depart as I have a long and busy day ahead of me so no time to engage in any debate on HOL.

Better those come from Europe than elsewhere. We get very few immigrants that are native europeans whether they come via the EU or otherwise. You only need to use your eyes to see that. The arguament that we need these people or have a duty to take them in is a huge lie.

"The best of a bad bunch" has never seemed so apt.

Or indeed Italian, French, German or Greek. Boris says there are a quarter of a million French in London but still, what does he know?
