| I look forward to the coverage of Johnson strange behaviour and denial with regards the 4 year old sleeping on an hospital floor in the usual right wing press. This coupled with his actions after the London Bridge attack should make anyone think that is Brexit worth another 5 years of lies and denials. I note not only does he not want to be grilled by the BBB or ITV he is also avoiding talking to the father of the murdered man in the above incident.
He is an embarrassment and what will he do when it comes to negotiating with Trump and Xi or any other country he is desperate to do a trade deal with because it is certain he will not have agreed anything with the EU by the end of next year.

It seems to me the press are reacting to the accusation of Tory bias - all I have heard today is anti-Tory pro Labour. In the NHS how many people were treated perfectly well - you can always find exceptions if you really look hard enough.
On Brexit it is no surprise leaks are coming out - 95% of all government civil servants voted remain - this is their last gasp effort to avoid leaving and having to up front and central.
Only thing I seen/heard anti Labour is Cauldwell's demolition of McDonald this morning on the Today program.

| No the problem is not the press it is the conservative leader and his views that result in the coverage. He can rely on the usual right wing press to back him and ignore his lies.

| I must admit Johnson looked and sounded very uncomfortable when hijacked with that picture. Nearly as uncomfortable as Corbyn when confronted by those anti racist Jewish protesters the other week.

| Jewish protesters or any protesters do not compare to a prime minister trying to avoid something he is responsible for.

Or a wannabe PM doing the same. IMO Corbyn is more directly responsible for the anti Jewish venom in the Labour Party than Johnson is for one (too many) lad on a hospital floor

| But Johnson is responsible for the NHS the expansion of food banks, increased poverty and the increase in racist attacks. Which party recently had to remove members for being both anti Semitic and Islamophobia.

| I note as expected the right wing press completely ignore the NHS on their front page instead focussing on his threat to the funding of the BBC as instructed from central office or that Lord Sugar is backing Johnson. I have noticed he made a similar threat about Channel 4 when they replaced him with an ice carving. He is also suggesting that the Supreme Court should be political appointees like the US because they ruled against him. He must think he is still at Eton and he can bully those that disagree with him.
I saw that a former Conservative MP suggested it was the reporter’s fault because he kept asking him to look at the picture, that must have taken some working out. He is getting more like Trump by making stupid and incorrect statements and then getting others to face the public and back up his bafoonery.
With regards facing the public unlike Corbyn if he is advised that there are demonstrators he just does not appear.

| Squeaky bum time for some. Based [isolely on my personal experience[/i, I'd say a reasonable Tory majority is likely, but it only takes a few twists to put Labour in based on a coalition of the left/remain.
I'm seeing a huge volume of anti-Labour language on local (mostly traditional Labour) community social media sites - even a massive Labour seat like Leigh is balanced on a knife edge, and in the last few days has swung to a predicted Tory win. But it depends where those ex-Labour votes go - split them between Tory and BP and Labour take it.
Plus you could stick a red rosette on a turd in some seats like Wigan and Labour would still win.
Thursday is going to be very interesting.

And you hit the nail on the head, people vote Labour because they always have, not because they understand what is at stake. There are many on here that just ignore Corbyn's past as a terrorist sympathiser, his anti UK stance, anti Military stance, Anti Semitism, but it's all about Boris not wanting to appear on the left wing BBC and being misrepresented constantly.

| Or ITV, Piers Morgan, Channel 4, The Public, Radio 2 and any unscripted interviews that could not be vetted by his aides. He won’t always be able to run into a freezer to avoid any questions.
I suppose if he wins and starts negotiating with the USA and China we will need to bring a fridge along should it get tough and he needs to hide away. I bet it was a trick he used when he was avoiding detection by any disgruntled mothers to his children, if he actually admit to their existence.

Seriously, are you about five years old or what? Your grasp on actual issues and your casual questioning of people's patriotism is childlike.

| I see you have dropped your reference to the KKK which just shows that despite your ignorance of the world outside your bedroom you can learn albeit after being shown to be a fool.

Genuine question. How many of those posts do you think are honest, genuine posts, and how many of them do you think are sock puppet accounts?
If there's one thing anyone should have learnt during this campaign, it's to be highly sceptical and questioning of what you read on social media. Tuesday's 'events' being prime examples. And don't say nobody falls for it. Some of the most prominent 'journalists' were propagating everything they could about the 'Leeds hospital punch', which turned out to be nothing of the sort. Peston even admitted he was fed the line by senior Tories in his apology. We'll not even go into the young lad on the hospital floor. It's amazing how so many former paediatric nurses emerged on social media that day, and all with exactly the same worded post.
Go on twitter now and see how many single mothers are voting Tory for the first time, then look at the date they joined twitter. I can guarantee they all joined in November 2019. Also, have a look at how many lifelong Labour voters are apparently scared of the security risk Corbyn poses, therefore they'll be voting Tory for the first time. It's playing on the weak, the vulnerable, the frightened, and the confused. See how it works?
You could argue that there are Labour/Green accounts of a similar ilk, and there are, but you could counter argue that they have far more gravitas, as they've had 9 actual years experience of coalition and Tory rule.
My retired Mum keeps asking me how she can join Facebook. If she can't work it out for herself, there's no way I'm feeding her to the lions! Within a week, she'd be buying magic beans, sending all her money to Prince Ngobu of Nigeria, and worse still, voting Tory.
