I’m basically like the Macron of Stockport. I’m a truly detestable creature.

You make football kits?

Eh?
Explain.

It’s so fake it’s unreal. The wife’s hairdresser knows someone who went on it last year . He was picked and asked to go on it and said they were told who to pair up with and most of them already knew each other

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

A small point of interest, and I confess I’m really stretching that word; there were 23 by-elections over the course of the last Parliament, and the first of those came a long 16 months after the 2019 General Election. If that were replicated over the coming Parliament, it would mean that, unless they ‘persuaded’ someone to fall on their sword, the Conservatives might not have the opportunity to parachute any of their big hitters back into the House for some time, maybe not even until after their party conference in 2025. The Shadow Cabinet might have to be filled with people who just happen to have the safest seats but have spent most of their political careers doing their second jobs. Free ride for Labour.

Some might quit anyway. Sunak would disappear at some point should he win his seat tonight. Probably when they’ve identified the big hitter to stand in Richmond.

Same with other seats they have, I guess, to shape their next leadership.

Now Mrs MB was discharging those patients. They didn’t have tests that worked quickly, so even if they tested - waited 3 days for results - then discharged - the patient may well have contracted COVID in the 3 days they waited.

But I’ll pass on your kind messages about her killing folk. You seem to know best.

I call bullshit on this. Im calling you out as a liar.

Enjoy watching your preferred bunch of liars criminals and grifters get despatched into oblivion tonight.

Rees smug is probably the next leader as he has one of the safest seats in the country and is a typical Tory, detestable arrogant twat not to mention his son being a dipper fan

He’s quite likely to lose his seat tonight.

The all stars one was fake i agree, most did know each other and had shagged around in that group , it seemed very forced, this one is back to normal aside from joey essex being on it and his ex is also on it and he has had his head turned from that girl already ! Harmless distraction tv

 

[abu13]

What’s been said?

Could be down to less than 70 seats, a fight with the Lib Dems to avoid 3rd place.

Dont know how true it is.

It won’t be easy, however, and it’ll all take time, which will, in turn, make it harder for the Conservatives to have a functioning opposition by 2028. The Conservatives had won 166 seats in 2005 when Cameron became leader. Be interesting to compare by tomorrow.

 

[lust overlord]

Unimpressive electoral campaign by all parties.
The best thing to come out of this is a tory party wipe out.

 

[mosssideblue]

This should be an utter disaster for the Tories and I can’t see Sunak surviving despite it not really being his fault.

Of course it is

 

[mosssideblue]

I can’t hate him. I think he’s a decent fella.

I have enough hate for both of us so don't worry

 

[blueparrot]

Of course it is

Not just his to be fair.

Hope you are right I think his constituency has been fiddled around with and borders have changed so North Somerset is vulnerable to Labour

 

[I'm With Stupid]

That, in my opinion, is the biggest thing that pisses me off with this country’s politics, how can anyone who doesn’t live in north Manchester have any understanding of what we require? It’s a joke.

I want to be represented by someone from the community.

That's an issue, but the main issue for me is the existence of safe seats. It basically means that the two biggest parties have a selection of seats guaranteed, meaning that they can hand them to whoever they choose. And that's how you end up with an insane number of people from the same class in Eton just happening to all get elected. None of them ever successfully wrestled a tough constituency from the opposition. None of them have ever been elected on their own merits. They just used their connections in the party to get put on the ballot somewhere they were guaranteed to get elected, often after being put on the ballot a few times in places they were guaranteed to fail to learn the ropes of campaigning (like Rees-Mogg campaigning with his nanny in Scotland).

What a wonderful 3 hrs that would be
