The Farage love-in continues.
Whereas Cameron, Corbyn and Johnson were the useful idiots, Farage certainly was the main focker. So the love might continue a good while.

Same here (Mid Devon), Lib Dems Winning Here are the majority that I see too.... almost zero of anything else.

It's a surprisingly subdued campaign from everybody round here. No canvassing, couple of leaflets, haven't seen a single window poster or stands out in town.

I drive and cycle past out local Conservative Club quite often
Lived here over 10 years and I have never seen a soul going in or coming out of the place
(enter joke here about Tories not having souls)

I have a Labour poster in my window. Partly to express my support for them but also in the hope of keeping canvasser's away.
Only seen one other which was in Scotland for, I think, a Nationalist the party branding wasn't as familiar to me as those in England.
My earliest of an election was 1964 and of the road between home and school blitzed with blue posters for the incumbent Joe Hiley.

I don’t understand what Sunak means. It’s such a vacuous comment if you give it even 2 seconds of thought.
It’s not like the government are buy my weekly shopping and clothing my children.
And i can hardly spend my money repairing potholes and buying tanks for the army.

During the local elections/ London Mayoral Elections / London Assembly elections, I never saw a single poster for any party, no canvassers nor any leafleting.
This election so far, its the same as far as I can see.
I'm not sure if this is a reflection of the general apathy towards politics in the country, or perhaps a reflection that social media and TV/ Radio are being used instead to target more voters and get messages across

As pointed out by many others. Sky TV was see as a bit “council estate” in the 90s.
My parents wouldn’t dream of having a dish up outside the house.

Welcome yourself into the new modern crisis
He's about my age which means he was a child during the Thatcher and Major governments. It should have been the easiest thing for a Tory PM to say that he grew up comfortably under a Tory administration. But he committed to the four Yorkshiremen route and once he had he was stuck without a specific example.

Moreover, I believe the UK government, and international law enforcement agencies, would take a dim view of individual citizens going out and trying to buy, for example, a brace of cruise missiles.

If his attempts to use a debit/credit card are anything to go by it would have been a waste of money anyway - he wouldn't have been able to operate the remote...
GP father and pharmacist mother so not unreasonable to imagine combined salaries of £150/£200k in today's terms - so it must have been tough.
Sadly, for us, the "lots of things" he went without included any connection to ordinary life and ordinary people.
