Have no idea how much difference it would have made but wish there was a Remain Party as not to split the vote.
At a guess - because the beeb hasn't been able to avoid constantly trashing the Tories, given the entire country including most of the Conservative Party has been bashing them for months, they feel they have to take any chance in front of them to trash Labour.Labour and Tories both getting a mullering, but I’m watching the results on bbc and they are hammering labour, yet they are doing better than the Tories, can anyone explain this to me? Genuinely curious as it seems both parties are doing badly as predicted, but the Tories are being given a real pass
Liberal Green and Remain party would have won around 5 seats more over the course of tonight.Have no idea how much difference it would have made but wish there was a Remain Party as not to split the vote.
I certainly wouldn't have voted for it.Liberal Green and Remain party would have won around 5 seats more over the course of tonight.
They'd already have won 1 more based on whats been announced.
Whether combining the radical Green anti-business wing and the pro-business Liberal wing would work or put people off....
Who did you vote for?I certainly wouldn't have voted for it.
Fern Brady once said “most people are idiots. I get on trains all over the country, and everywhere I go people repeatedly jab he train door button before it’s illuminated even though that has never ever worked. And these people are allowed to vote.”.So even if we remain, we have the Brexit Party to represent us in Europe?
Are we just being ironic for the sake of it? Or maybe we just like punching ourselves in the balls?
Green. I'd vote Labour if all the remain parties joined to become what Change UK is trying to be.Who did you vote for?
They like talking about Labour's failings a lot (in fairness they haven't had many positive election nights in the last decade - I guess the last one Corbyn got what he wanted in was the 2016 referendum) but I think tonight it's probably justifiable. It's difficult to frame this election for the Tories because May, who was completely toxic for their usual supporters and the rest of the country, has already announced that she's going and so the likelihood is they will get a boost from a new leader and we know it will be a Brexiter, in line with most Tory voters. The bigger question is what do Labour do?I don't understand why they are talking about Labour far more than the Tories when the latter have had a far worse night so far.
Because everyone (media) knows Tories are dickheads. It's Labour who had an open goal but went and scored an own goal at the other end of the pitch instead. Bottlers.I don't understand why they are talking about Labour far more than the Tories when the latter have had a far worse night so far.
makes sense, but it has been a bad night for both but worse for the tories then Labour. makes no sense to me.At a guess - because the beeb hasn't been able to avoid constantly trashing the Tories, given the entire country including most of the Conservative Party has been bashing them for months, they feel they have to take any chance in front of them to trash Labour.
Not really, if you look at vote totals.It's a shit time to be a left leaning remainer right now. Sigh.
This is how I feel.It's a shit time to be a left leaning remainer right now. Sigh.
I voted Green too.Green. I'd vote Labour if all the remain parties joined to become what Change UK is trying to be.
An open goal to get some european seats? They don't care about them, no one really does.Because everyone (media) knows Tories are dickheads. It's Labour who had an open goal but went and scored an own goal at the other end of the pitch instead. Bottlers.
I've not added the numbers up.but gut feel that looks not far off 52%leave (ukip brexit and conservatives ) and 48% remain... (Assuming labour are remain?)
FantasistBloody Hannan.
The problem is - they aren't. The core Labour heartland is core Leave territory.I've not added the numbers up.but gut feel that looks not far off 52%leave (ukip brexit and conservatives ) and 48% remain... (Assuming labour are remain?)
Literally about to post something on similar lines. Slime of a human.Mark Francois is someone I'd be willing to push out of a helicopter.
I can't figure if he's an idiot or one who adopts idiocy to support his opinion.Mark Francois is someone I'd be willing to push out of a helicopter.
