General Election - 4th July 2024

[Vic]

I don't subscribe to the telegraph Vic, please can you let me know what the article says. Thanks

The prime minister is to be routinely driven around in a German-made car after no British alternatives to the current fleet of Jaguars could be found...

The last time a party won more than 50% of the vote was 1935.

1931.

In 1935 no single party got 50%. You're adding the votes of other parties in the national government alliance.

It’s our fault! I wondered when we’d be blamed for the General Election
… From the BBC website:
The Conservative Party had become accustomed to almost being the Manchester City of politics.

A blue, winning machine for so long that some of its key players could barely remember anything else.’

Talking of Stanley Baldwin, was in Bewdley a short while back. Sone great boozers.

Sort of a compliment i think

That reminds me. Think I’ll go down the drink place for a 568ml to watch the soccer ball.

And get a chip oil late night brunch afterwards?

I’ve had indirect dealings with Jess Phillips and she’s a fucking good constituency MP. Think those cunts booing her are cunts.

I’ve seen her on Peston a few times, she seems a straight talking decent lady who doesn’t take any shit and says it how it is

Yes but in 410 of the 650 seats they were the most popular choice.
And what percentage voted against Reform?
What percentage voted against the Tories?

Fuck knows mate but if 66% of people don’t want you, it’s hardly a ringing endorsement is it.
