Loved Truss’s spectacular defeat, which is also extinction for Mark Littlewood, Matthew Sinclair and the IEA. Simon Clarke got walloped in Boro as well, so the vermin from 2022 extinguished. I hope they all fuck off to America. The exit poll worked out, Curtiss is superb at what he does. But some weird results and nearly results underneath. Greens and Reform both made their mark and if Tice wanted to hurt the Tories he has very much succeeded and won his own seat. Pity about the beetroot faced cunt winning Yarmouth but overall Reform will be happy. Greens should get equal credit but won’t. Best Liberal result for a century! My seat overturned a 22k Tory majority and our two votes helped. Great stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What else did you expect from an ERG member who hawks asbestos? Having had family members who worked on the Castle Union shipping line from the Cape to Soton killed by the stuff, he is beyond contempt.

It doesn’t matter if a majority was 10,000 or 15,000, and so put their resources to the right places. For once, they’ve got it tactically correct and played a blinder.

Elmore Saint Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Interesting to see that if we’d adopted Proportional Representation in 2011 we’d be looking at Reform on 90 odd seats, Labour on just over 200 and the Liberals about where they are.

That’s plainly bollocks, as 2015 would have seen a Con/UKIP coalition to get to a majority. FPTP does skew, but allows for less beige governance - comme ci, comme ça…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
