General Election 2024


Recommended Posts

Merseyside remaining a Labour clean-sweep, which is the best option we have down here.  Hopefully, Reform will remain an outlet only for a lot of angry folk and not get to actually do anything harmful.  Farage getting even more airtime and Jeremy Hunt staying in place are both disappointing.  However, some unpleasant characters getting binned is pleasing.

Labour with 35% share of the vote on a 60% turnout.

21% of voters voting for a landslide.

There's the warning if Reform manage to increase their share of the vote if (ir rather when) Labour become unpopular.

I'm generally pro-PR but glad one of the many things Labour won't do is introduce it. Because at this juncture in history it would introduce more Faragists to parliament.

Tories wiped off the face off the planet.  Good. 
 

SNP Yer-da cybernats crying into their cornflakes.   Good.

Douglas Ross and Rees-Mogg gone.  Effing Brilliant.

Red tories everywhere delighted.  Terrible.

Farage and his pals.  Concerning but hopefully a protest vote.  
 

Anything else?

 

Greens did well in England. 4 MPs which is good for a diddy party in a FPTP system. Corbyn won.

I'm pro PR and couldn't care less who is elected because of it. It's like wanting independence and being scared that Scotland might elect a right wing government (which they would do eventually)

Apparently Labour have lost Birmingham Perry Barr to a pro-Palestine independent. Jess Phillips was close to losing in Yardley, down to a 700-vote majority. Shabana Mahmood's majority in Ladywood was cut from 28k to 3k, too.
