This has just come in on the wire,
"Labour has ruled out pacts and coalitions if the party needs to run a minority government after next week’s general election.
As the opinion polls show a further narrowing of the Conservatives’ lead over the party, Jeremy Corbyn and the shadow foreign secretary, Emily Thornberry, said there would be no negotiations or deals over policy with the Liberal Democrats and the Greens if Labour is the biggest party but without an overall majority.
Their interventions were delivered a week before the general election at a rally in Basildon, Essex, and will be seen as a way of combating Conservative claims that a vote for Labour and other parties would lead to a “coalition of chaos”.
Asked if he would consider negotiating with other parties if there was a hung parliament, Corbyn said: “We are not doing deals, we are not doing coalitions, we are not doing any of these things. We are fighting to win this election.”
I have to say, if he keeps his word on this he will go a long way in gaining my respect. If.

QUOTE (Andy Capp @ Jun 1 2017, 06:52 PM) “We are not doing deals, we are not doing coalitions, we are not doing any of these things. We are fighting to win this election.” doesn't mean: "we won't". Agreed.

Its like a game of Top Trumps.. We do Brexit... The Yanks do Trump then we outbid them with Corbyn Sturgeon and Abbott! 😂

Apparently the manifesto includes cut price jam and a free wooly sweater for everyone. Oh yes please. Look, it's not going to be all hair shirts and knitted yoghort. Everyone will be issued with a free 'disablement trolly' so we'll have some fun racing those about in Northbrook Street.
