Which MPs would you really love to lose their seats? For me - Zac Goldsmith, Jeremy Hunt for starters.

dizzygran Thu 08-Jun-17 12:35:57

Corbyn, Fallon, McDonnell, Duncan Smith.....

I never could stand Anna Soubry.

He's not an MP but I hope Nuttall fails in Boston.

I wonder who'll provide the big Michael Portillo moment?

Ken Clarke Forever!

Thought it was too much to hope for one day free from politics!

Philip Davies MP for Shipley in Yorkshire. He filibustered debates about free hospital parking and tackling rogue landlords as well as a bill to help battered wives. He is utter scum. m.huffpost.com/uk/entry/8440540

Glad you send that couldn't have put it better myself.

Sheilasue Thu 08-Jun-17 11:36:10

polly123 Thu 08-Jun-17 11:11:29

I loathe Rees-Mogg. Another cold, cold hearted Tory lurking beneath a quirky facade, like Boris. As for the rest, it's hard to pick out particular Tories as I'd like to see them all gone, but Hunt would probably be my first choice. However, if he went, May would just pick another vulture to preside over the death of the NHS.

All the above I think. But don't worry many have other jobs and a superb pension. Especially Jeremy Hunt who is too awful & Gove who did for Education. But I don't like most of them even for entertainment value angry

Mine. But she won't.

There is more chance of a giant monster crawling out of the Tyne and gobbling the town up for it's supper, than my town not voting Labour.

Ruth Davidson,all mouth....hasn't had even ONE surgery in her constituency and totally obsessed with the oppositions policies instead of having any of her own ...she's a walking ego.Tory leaflets say Ruth Davidsons candidate .I suppose she thinks that'll be more popular than tory on them

JaneD3 Thu 08-Jun-17 10:12:18

And I agree that DA has had an awful time. Used to love watching her on the prog after question time and she is certainly a different lady right now. Get well soon!

JaneD3 Thu 08-Jun-17 10:10:00

Corbyn, Corbyn and Corbyn! Liz Kendal for leader of Labour?

sue01 Thu 08-Jun-17 10:04:44

Clegg. Thornberry. McDonnell. In that order !

Skweek1 Thu 08-Jun-17 10:03:07

Damian Green - as Sec of State for W&P he should discover what it's like to be out of work and how hard it is for some people to live on their pensions!

Not hindsight ab as I defended DA on both threads some time ago.
True rigby46.

Rigby46 Wed 07-Jun-17 22:52:23

mostly and the same poster started both threads. Makes you think...

Rigby46 Wed 07-Jun-17 22:45:53

It's nothing to do with hindsight.

Anniebach Wed 07-Jun-17 22:41:24

With hindsight ?

And another thread about her from a month ago! rigby46

The right wing press don't spare her feelings at all and their comments threads are really shocking. She's been through a lot - has had a bad few weeks. I hope she is given privacy so she can recover. It must be awful to be hounded by the media like that.
