The SDLP is making a comeback after a rough couple of turns! 19 hours ago, Edouard said: Liberal Democrats, confident that they could now form a government or at least finish on opposition benches have then modified their campaign strategy and dare to go in places where their opinion polls are below First event, Paddy Ashdown meets voters across the Southeast, trying to win voters the same way he won hearts in the west. Paddy Ashdown's strategy is to conquer the whole South where he is elected. The Libdem strategy is to tell them that now there is a moment where Libdems are escaping their third place and can take on the two party systems to deliver moderate policies which go well with the South as well as for rural areas. Second event, in order to continue to gain traction, Libdems send their welsh member of parliament Alex Carlile in Wales, the goal of the Libdems is to show to the people of Wales that the culture and local dialects of the Welsh people will protected under a Liberal Democratic government. Third event, Libdems reroll their attempt to get the Lower class by promoting their fiscal measures for Healthcare and Education and to compare that "the economic policies which differ between Libdems and Labour will not affect poverty, because nationalizations do not reduce poverty". Rally (9): Paddy is once again a hit. The Liberal Democrats are literally SURGING. Even in solid Tory country. Rally (7): Lib Dems gain some traction in Wales! Influence (10!): Somehow, they turn their failures around and those in the lower class are beginning to take notice. This is an extremely vital base of the Labour Party. Overall: +12.

The Libdems also send their message in Eastern anglia also known as est England where they hope to get more backing from rural voters. They coordinate their message around their crime policies that Labour do not adress and that Conservatives may be overplaying on words instead of facts.

The Working Class is now taking notice at the economic recovery, and crackdown on law and order. Influence (1!): Some dumb campaign worker thinks it's a good idea to put Thatcher ranting about how dumb the Argentinian Government is, while a display of strength, it's not the moderate friendly language that the country seems to need right now.

A D20 roll will be conducted on it and it will be weighed against reality. As this did occur in real life. General Headlines Election campaigning becomes dominated by the "War of Jennifer's Ear".

Edouard Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Liberal democrats presents their apologies to voters of West Midlands : Our party may have hurted Georgians who may live in Midlands by our comment relating to georgian peaches. We want to present our apologies, we know that the Georgian heritage is well present in the culture of the people over here with our lovely climate. Our party may have hurted you over this issue which is one of the crucial ones alongside the economy and bringing unemployment down. May once again accept our apologies. Liberal Democrats pledge to boost housing policies in East Midlands : We think that besides peaches, it is really important to adress you with the housing problem. Libdems commit to adopt policies in order to reduce inflations on housing's prices. A Libdem government will especially focus on this issue. Influence : Liberal Democrats try once again to appeal to Leftists, by letting them know that they are going to adress civil partneurship for same sex couples by the next parliament alongside the Labour party which has also committed to do something for them.

WVProgressive Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Jennifer's Ear: What we said is true, the Conservatives, and their lapdogs The Sun, are attempting to muddy the water around the health debate. We should redouble our efforts to attack the Tories on their disastrous health policies, they have eviscerated the NHS, and given kickbacks to private insurance companies. Why should we back off a winning issue? Event 1: The Labour Party continues to attack the Tories on their underfunding, and mismanagement of the NHS by releasing a new newspaper ad nationwide on the topic.
