B.C. United Leader Kevin Falcon says the provincial Conservatives have rejected a deal to avoid vote-splitting in the fall provincial election.

He says talks between the two right-of-centre parties concluded with B.C. Conservatives Leader John Rustad rejecting a proposed “non-competition” agreement.

Falcon says Rustad has “placed his own ambition” above B.C.'s interests and is risking the re-election of the governing NDP.

Maybe the NDP will survive this vote despite absolutely nullifying the surrey muni vote through autocratic dictation.

Rustad looks like what AI would generate if you asked it to create a picture of an old white conservative male.

The Untied can’t kick people out of the party, let those people go to Conservtives, Conservitive poll numbers go up and up, and then United want join Conservitives.

United have nothing to offer Conservatives if Conservitives under Rustad are patient enough. Falcon is in a rush for power and is trying line up with Rustad before United become irrelevent and forgotten.

No Kevin, it’s one party’s idea of one right-of-NDP coalition’s idea of B.C.’s interests.

Opposition party speak is an embarrassing side of politics. No matter what side of the aisle.
