would be fun to see a true old left take over uk and restore it back to pre neoliberal days

I kind of want to punish them for brexit, but that'd be going too far

Campaigning was suspended because of the attack but the candidates will be hard at it this morning. Things should ramp up something crazy in the 3 days before the election. June 8th the country votes and, god-willing, we shall be a socialist country again.

My dad says he'll leave the country if Corbyn wins :p He's being hyperbolic but he makes good points about the pitfalls of nationalisation.

Nationalisation of railways, banks and energy companies is pretty radical. We had a nationalised bank before though and it was pretty good for a while. This could be the start of a worldwide socialist revolution. Fingers crossed comrades :)

I think so too. A lot of votes will depend on how the two leaders deal with the recent attacks. Theresa May is making a hash of just about everything she touches atm. It's glorious to watch. At this point, even if she wins, she'll be facing a lot of pressure to step down.

so... May may ( ^_^ ) end up losing a 20% lead to a guy who is considered utterly incompetent by the vast majority of his own party within the span of what, four weeks?
would be one of the most epic fails in political history.

Terror attacks bring right wing votes.
