Hafnia Posted July 4 Report Share Posted July 4 25 minutes ago, Romey 1878 said: They’re taking two seats from Labour in Barnsley apparently. The warning signs are there, fucking heed them. This is the thing.... there is clearly issues that some parts of the country are feeling. People aren't just suddenly saying "let's be racist"...... it's a protest vote - voices are not being heard.

StatesideToffee14 Posted July 4 Report Share Posted July 4 I read that it's projected to be the lowest seat total for the Tories since they were founded nearly 200 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tories will now lean even more heavily right, Reform are leading the way there too, so it’s going to be a huge fight. I don’t see Labour being in power past 5 years unless there’s major change.

People have to very careful with them, so much of it is AI generated now. https://fullfact.org/online/keir-starmer-liverpool-hate/ As for the reauly, I can't even celebrate. I'm relieved and worried for what happens next. I know I chose Tory lite in the hopes of some stability like back in the 90s, but I'm still really uncomfortable. Still, fuck the Tory's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 Went to bed with reform projected to get thirteen seats, and woke up to find they "only" got four. Still four too many, but easier to live with; for once I'm grateful for FPTP. Cornish Steve and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 1 hour ago, Matt said: Then they're going to be in big, big trouble. It's more a belief because Labour haven't won due to people believe in them or their policies (what policies ), it's because people hate and want rid of the Tories. Last night they were projected to get a lower share of the vote than they did in the two previous losing GEs, but I don't know if that became a reality with the actual vote. If it was the case then that's pretty damning and further shows that the current voting system is a joke. I'm crossing my fingers Labour get rid of the liar before the next election.

Me too, or that all his lies were just to get into power so he can actually do something. Reform for the 3rd most votes in Wirral West, the Tory's still got 12k votes here too.

Palfy Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 My tactical vote had an impact LibDem beat the Tories in one of their heartland areas. This is a momentous turnaround by the Labour Party in 4.5 years from their worst election to their best election, yes the Tories destroyed themselves with a poor record, incompetence, and infighting, but the electorate could have voted for multiple parties if they didn’t want Labour in power yet still wanted to get rid of the Tories. People are trying to turn our democracy into a personality contest in the same way as the USA, forget the personality contest and vote on the party who is in a better place and shape to run the country, and thankfully the majority of voters have done that.

This is why I can't trust the public I'm really happy that truly evil Tories like Reese-Mogg, Mordaunt, Truss, Fabricunt etc lost their seats. Shame Badenoch kept hers though. Also really pleased that Corbyn won his seat as an independent too. Matt and MikeO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted July 5 Report Share Posted July 5 disgusting. Very concerning and shows the brewing issues that will no doubt hit the streets before long. labour need to invest a shed load of money into policing/national security. Equal rights and diversity isn't the long aim for some - thats the short term goal, it's the ability to get into a position where they can show people how discrimination can really be done.

There is no money though so taxes are going up again. That's not a labour issue, any party would have to after half a trillion was spaffed up the wall.
