If you've been hiding in a cave for the 72hrs you'd probably may of heard that there's a General election in December, Why do I mention it? Because it was reported over in Germany on the national news that the Type of Voters the Co🚾🚫🔚🚽🚽🚽tive party have targeted is
Workington Man.
According to Onward - the right-of centre-think tank that gave birth to the creation - Workington Man is older, white and Northern. The imagined poster boy for "middle England" likes rugby league and Labour. He voted for Brexit and feels the country is moving away from his views.
To see a Well respected political commentator in the Style of Andrew Neil & That blind bloke called Norman from the BBC give a one minute description of RL Was quite a surprise. Words like A honest-sport no prima donnas
(With the exception of Sam Tomkins) Respect for the Ref (Apart from Catalan not staying in the in goal area ) and no pretensions. Isn't what you'd really expect to see or hear ever on this type of programme Also a 20 second video of a Workington match from a game in the CC early in the Year.

Patronising bollocks isn’t it?
Funnily enough when I heard the description I thought of Garry Schofield. I know he’s not a Cumbrian but fits the rest of the description. God help us if our country’s future is based on ‘it’s like it were when I were a lad’

Down with Steptoe, long live Boris. Boris will live long. In a wealthy holiday home in the EU somewhere, regardless of the future. A man so viciously out of touch and dangerously off-hand. Like Frankie Boyle said, he's an unmade bed with a head injury. A malevolent baked Alaska, The interface of the public school system and foetal alcohol syndrome, what happens when Pixar is infiltrated by the last surviving Nazi war criminal, and Oswald Moseley’s soul trapped in a Furby. A man who plays buffoon with the heart of a ruthless ruling class master. I understand why the rich vote tory. I'll never understand why a working-class person would do. Simply madness.

Nothing more likely to cause issues on here than talking politics,because you know that 50% ish will disagree with you. Let’s stick to constructive criticism of referees,where there’s nearly 100% consensus 😂 #justsaying
PS fair enough to comment on Jimmy Krankie,though !

Because No One can have a iota of support for JRM yet another Politician who's inherited all his wealth and the privileges he thinks he and the rest of his ilk are entitled to, And Finally as the Unfortunate vibe in the UK is Send back the Foreigners . How about we send Boris back as well. get him put on the first Flight to New York. (He was born in Brooklyn) If you weren't aware.

He'd fit right in there at the moment...

As Billy Connolly used to say about all MPs... " Don't vote for them, it only encourages them..."

In answer to your question their are a lot of working class who crave to be tories.The tories don't want them, they only want their vote. Ps Johnson was out looking for a ditch this morning,they were all repulsed at the idea.

Who do you vote for A lying rich self centred English version of Trump The son of Karl Marx The daughter of Mary Poppins Jimmy Cranky
I think we should all 'abstain' until they get us someone worth voting for. Wouldn't send any of them down to the shops for a loaf of bread. We're at rock bottom with any of them; self centred, egotistical, visionless bores.
