OH GOD not another election was my first reaction. I’ve had enough of this.

We will now have to suffer 7 weeks of pontificating lies and false promises, Nigel Farage will crawl out of the woodwork, Nicola Sturgeon will be rabbiting on about Scottish independence, Leane Woods will be pretending to be relevant to someone some where. 

There does however seem to be one upside the media (controlled and financed by foreign billionaires and hedgefunds) intent on keeping the status quo have stopped blaming Corbyn for everything at last. 

I’m afraid it may be too late as they have already succeeded in brainwashing half the population against him. 

Now is the time we should all unite and get rid of these Tories whose failed policies have ruined the country and destroyed the NHS and social care, pushed millions into poverty and targeted the disabled. 

A quote from Rob Delaney encapsulates my feelings perfectly: “Just vote, get others to vote and don’t vote Tory.”

This election is not about Brexit, it’s about what sort of a society do we want to live in.
