You think most sun readers will bother?

It’ll join the great list of Boris Johnson words to be picked up by all sections of the British public and used in our urban dystopias by the nastiest, streetest kids out there.

Just like the way every hooded youth says “wiff waff”.

If boris has got to temper his statements to the understanding of sun readers, he may as well pick up a bit of chalk and draw tits on a corbyn poster.

It was actually interesting, but just remember the following on YouGov. Might explain why their polls are shit.

Nadhim Zahawi (born 2 June 1967) is a Iraqi-born British Conservative Party politician.
Zahawi was YouGov’s CEO from 2005 to 2010.

Any Labour run pollsters we can trust?

Corbs might actually have a chance with this. He has basically offered everyone who might vote for him a pay rise funded by A.N Other or maybe the EU or something like that. This is the lowest anyone has sunk in an election since Bear promised everyone who voted for him a handjob in the (seemingly pointless) soviet election.

Have you heard anything re: our coronation yet tokyos? I tried to guest a couple of people this morning, but it doesn’t seem to be working. @btripz is still posting.

That was you was it? Well let it be known that I slunk out of my cellar one morning and “borrowed” the Master Key from the @saintbletch when he was in one of his Brewdog slumbers!

I, of course, copied it and have since returned it to his person! He is none the wiser!!

I didn’t want to say anything bear but I have been snowed under with this soviet stuff. We have had 6 meeting since the vote and I have personally guessed 4 people. You seen spudders or bletch around recently? Eh?

I was tempted to guest you just for the lols but you being frozen out of the soviet is funny enough for now.

In essence the older we become we should (not any more but that is another point) become wealthier and by that want to retain it, this is why tories are popular with the plus 40’s, selfish bastards.

Loving the bit that says the more educated you are the more you are likely to vote Labour or Liberal Democrat! :lou_sunglasses:

That’s Students for you.

After working for The Guardian for 22 years I spent a few years with The Telegraph (and The Spectator). At the time The Guardian and Independent were hoovering up all the young broadsheet readers whilst the older Telegraph readership were all dying off. I remember one person telling me, very smugly, that The Telegraph would be ok as they would pick off The Guardian readers once they got older. What a load of bollocks. Not only were The Telegraph not picking up many new young readers, their older readship continued to die off and wasnt bolstered by migrating Guardian readers. We never gave a second thought to The Telegraph whilst I was at The Guardian as both readerships were so far apart. We were in competition with The Independent and, to a lesser extent, The Times. The Times was more of a competition for The Telegraph but for some strange reason, they seemed obsessed with being in competition with us.

But isn’t that because Universities are generally hot beds of left wing ideology that will rub off on the impressionable young souls!

Given that more and more people are going to University these days (to study Emmerdale or some such hokum) it should follow that more and more “educated” people are gong to be left wingers!!
