No idea what Audi do, I was talking about Land Rover as he drives a Range Rover and that’s what he had to smash the window on
Should probably add that it could differ by make/model I suppose, but the Land Rover app is fairly basic really |

He doesn’t, he has a Range Rover
And checking the app, it confirms whether the car is locked or not but doesn’t give the option of locking/unlocking |

Their bad run started 8 games ago - they’ve got 8 points during that time
During the same period we’ve got 9 points, despite the recent upturn
I do think they’ll carry on sinking though [Post edited 22 Jan 7:35]

I haven’t misread the data at all, a higher percentage of people responded favourably for Milliband than anyone else bar Corbyn. That people don’t know who the older options are is exactly the point I’m making - a bulk of respondents are not long term Labour members
The fact that this has been the direction of travel, and may well continue to be, is exactly the concern, as it’s been proven to be completely out of touch with the wider electorate |

Already summarised perfectly by itfcjoe
Plus the results seem to be skewed pretty heavily by people who only discovered politics in 2015, seeing as Milliband is second and over a quarter don’t seem to know about anyone pre-Blair |

Second poster of repute that I’ve seen say that on here, and yet every time I’ve been it’s been bang average. What am I missing? |

A shame but whilst I like her I had reluctantly come to the conclusion that she wouldn’t stand a chance if chosen due to the way people would perceive her. Ultimately supporting her wouldn’t really be any different to the way Momentum propped up an obviously unelectable Corbyn
That said, in having the awareness and integrity to drop out showed why she should have been considered, and absolutely should be given a prominent role by whoever ends up as leader |

Rather expertly managed to get stuck in that twice this morning, as I headed to the gym first thing and got caught coming back at half 7, and then again doing nursery dropoff and into work
Bottom of Humber Doucy Lane in particular was an absolute pr*ck
Grrrr etc |

Somewhat amusing that you appear to be taking this rather seriously |

Spot on on both counts
You can always tell the people who know nothing about football by which way round they’d put the 4 and 6 in a 442. I expect MrTown will be along in a sec to tell us that 4 is a centre back and 6 a central mid... |

Saw that on FB earlier, it also spells out C*NT in massive levels
Childish but hilarious, especially as it looked like it must have taken ages to do |

Yes that’s what I meant, although I do also think there is a bit of a difference between people being presented with a policy and liking it, and policies that people actually want and care about given a blank list [Post edited 20 Jan 14:21]

Oh definitely, you only need to listen to the accounts of those campaigning to know they were the 2 biggest issues
However there does seem to be an attempt to drive a narrative that the manifesto and policies were absolutely on point, which I think is at best unhelpful and worst wilfully burying heads in the sand |

People liked some of Labours policies, but those policies got completely buried in the manifesto behind tw*ttery such as free broadband and nationalising the railways. Research from both before and after the election showed that the public didn’t believe Labour could deliver on it - which nullified that support for a majority of the electorate and rendered any attacks on the Tories far-fetched promises moot
https://yougov.co.uk/topics/politics/articles-reports/2019/12/23/their-own-words
It’s not scientific and obviously a small sample size, but for anyone ‘normal’ I know (eg. No real interest in politics but go and vote in a general election), any comment about Labour policies generally seeing them as a joke (eg. ‘Guess we’re not getting our free broadband then!’ following the election)
Obviously Corbyn and Brexit were the key issues, but that doesn’t mean the manifesto was otherwise a success |
