General Election - 4th July 2024

Except in all those countries that have it, fucking hell it's like nursery level thought process with some.

I know, I'm trying to educate you but you won't listen. I've even had to put the apostrophe in for you ffs.

I thought this was pretty shocking. Being harassed and shouted at most of the election campaign as well. I don’t think the people booing, like that a women won either.

Using Palestine to intimidate people it’s shameful.

Fair plays for her standing up to that intimidation. That kind of behaviour simply isn't acceptable in our electoral system.

Not sure what you’re trying to teach, PR is used across europe, all those countries function very well,some better than ours. Trying to say PR doeasn’t work is denying the obvious. It can, it does.

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

That’s exactly what she is. The country would be in a better place if there were more MPs like Jess Phillips.

 

[give it to gordon]

Why is the nought on 10 Downing Street on the piss?

That has bugged me for years, the most famous front door perhaps in the world and the British workers put the nought pissed

Imagine you're actually thicker than someone who can't be arsed with apostrophes.

Well done haha.

You looked very silly and it irks, j get it but really that's the best you have? Pmsl.

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

But more people wanted them than any other party. Look, I get the arguments for PR but the fact is that Labour got the most votes.

An amazing speech

An amazing speech

It was. I respect her hugely.

As an individual party I agree, but add all the other parties votes up and a majority didn’t want them. With 1 seat left to declare Labour have 9,968,409 votes the other parties have 19,055,363 so hardly a ringing endorsement.

The simple fact is the Tory vote collapsed and Labour took advantage.

If we are still saddled with the same problems in 5 years time it will not help if Labour try to blame it on the Tories. They will be the ones losing seats hand over fist.

With proportional representation the seats would have been more like this:

• Labour - 222
• Tory - 157
• Reform - 94
• Lib Dem - 80
• Green - 45
• Rest - 50
