UK Prime Minister calls for "snap General Election" on June 8th

[Slayer 9,227]

Why is labour seen as so weak? I really don't understand why everybody hates Corbyn. Yes, he's far left and probably not compatible with today's current 'leaders', but surely that is better than a government that led us into brexit, and a PM who evidently has zero faith in herself or the future of the UK?

Most of his hate comes from media slander, he was the Hilary in our election all the major newspapers were dragging his name through the mud so much even his own party started to doubt him

It's been a divided party for a while now. Corbyn is more popular with the younger voters but he's also a bit of a joke. He doesn't seem to have much of an idea of what's going on, focuses blindly on the NHS etc. 

I like him but yeah I don't think he really has that presidential look to him. Couldn't imagine him standing up for Britain in the face of the Putin's and Trump's of the world. More so a push over. 

Labour also were the ones who began privatising the NHS and their choice of spends were pretty misplaced. Immigration really took a turn for the worst.   

Saying all this give me a Labour government over a Tory one any day. 

I'll vote Green though as always. Every vote helps

I mean... Jeremy lowkey supports Brexit so

[gagzus 23,033]

I know a lot of people are changing their minds on Brexit, sad it can't be reversed because I think some people would want that. 

Working in retail, our prices and stock is already rotting affected by Brexit and people are regretting it due to rising food costs

Jeremy wants to abolish the monarchy but would have to meet the queen every week as PM

why do all these horible people who are in office all around the world wanting even more assurement? She won, they got Brexit into action, what is this going to get her? all the old racist people are just going to get up and vote for them again...... is she trying to show Erdogan how to "convince" all people...... it's not going to work -.-'

I actually like Theresa May

Also, I don't think it's fair to throw her into the same club as other people in power at the moment 👀 She campaigned to remain in the EU but when David Cameron resigned she was confident in her abilities to steer us through Brexit despite not wanting it herself.

Honestly, out of all the Tory scum, Theresa May is probably the first Tory I like

Labour is weak because they hurt the working class, lost a lot of their votes to nationalist parties and there's a huge divide between all of their members on what they want. You have very left party members and then some on the right, they don't really work as a party at the moment.

Also, a lot of the working class like the monarchy and being proud of Britain but you don't get that vibe from Corbyn which works against him.

She wanted this so much doesn't she? Or does she want to abandon ship before it sink deeper?

No, she knows she'll win.

It's just a power play to get a more conservative government since the conservatives should win by a landslide.

This.  The Tories have a 21 point lead over Labour right now, the biggest since 1983.  It's a good time for her to be re-elected.  That's why she called it.

She's killing it in the polls:
