People want someone more left wing. Like Jeremy Corbyn? How did that work out?

What a load of shite.

Well it's working out pretty fucking super under the current government pushing fear, hate, and ignorance whilst lining their own pockets isn't it?

Tory votes : 13,966,451
Labour votes : 10,295,912

So a difference of 3700 out of a voting population of 47,568,611

It was only the massive negative press campaign , electoral maps and Brexit that cost Labour.

You have absolutely no idea how close we came have you.?

In terms of votes actually cast, which I think I’m right in saying is the only thing that counts in an election - unless I have ‘no idea’ about that as well - it was the biggest margin of victory (defeat) since 1997.

Do you think John Major was really close to beating Blair as well?

Trouble is , under the current system, the distribution of a few thousand votes in a few key marginals has more influence than overall numbers do.
Not very democratic.

So wages were up 7.2%....

Not in the public sector.

Those in the private sector who haven't had a pay rise need not reply. The Tory advice is just get a better-paid job.

Some People have had another 37% pay rise for "sustained growth within the business" whilst their employees are told they have to accept a real terms pay cut and worsening of their contracts.

I'd love to know how the ONS collate the figures.

7.2%? Exactly not in the public sector. Been offered 1.5% just like last year.

Private sector pay was up 7.6% on that basis, public up 5.6%.

Both below inflation.
