Why should I, been laughed at for weeks on this fucking thread by people trying to put me down for what I stand for haha well let’s just say the only one that’s laughing now is me

And what if your hero worship is misplaced and he fucks up? You say it’s fine because you’ll admit it was a mistake. But the country will have paid the price. The poorest in society will stand to suffer the most.

Nobody except Ian doubted the result. They just think it’s shit.

According to the exit poll Coventry North West Is going Tory. Coventry South going Labour.

But the Tories have been underperforming compared to the exit poll predictions so far so it could still go either way.

 

[Philosoraptor]

I think it's time for a major shake up in Labour Coventry North West constituency party.

Looks like they are out of touch with their voters.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

True...but the race is already on. He interim leader will be nothing other than that

Yes which confirms my point there won’t be a new leader next week.

 

[dancers lance]

Only one party was going to benefit on referendum by proxy. And we can look forward to the biggest liar in the country implement garbage across the board.

The turkeys have voted for Christmas

I think this was more about the hatred of Jez and Co more than a love of BoJo.

What do you stand for?

A conservative government is it not clear to you?

Thing is they won’t though, have some belief that our country will now thrive and become great! Instead of having your constant sly pathetic digs

Based on what policies numb nuts, what actual values? You really are too thick to deal with. Enjoy your victory.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Corbyn and his like are dinosaurs if Starmer was leader people may vote for them.
Mud sticks I’m afraid

Bollocks.

Many posters even up until tonight were discussing hung parliaments, minority governments and even a labour win via a huge youth turn out.

This sudden turn around is disingenuous.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Absolutely buzzing! Time for Britain to shine and unleash its potential, would of been absolute mayhem with Corbyn in and McDonnell in change of the country’s finance

Only one poster was talking of a Labour win. The debate was mostly on the size of the majority.

Let’s hope that 3 word soundbite comes true. Ignoring for starters that even the DUP admit it will be horrendous for NI.

It will all sort itself out, now get behind our proud country instead of slagging it off all the time

None of the evidence says it will. You have been convinced by the sound bites, easy fixes and the EU scapegoat. Look at what the Tories have done to public services in the last decade. Why should I get excited when my class sizes keep growing, my classrooms fall to pieces and my school has to fire people to pay for salary increases?

You just don’t understand.

BSB, you’ll have to accept that a majority of the public (and in particular traditional labour voters) appear to trust Johnson more than Corbyn/current labour

 

[dutchman]

Spare a thought for mrs dutchman. She was promised a payout of £31,000 if Corbyn got in, not that she believed it would ever happen.

On trustworthiness they don’t. But this election was never about that. It is now time for Johnson to spend 5 years being shown up for the lying charlatan that he is. And it is the working classes who will suffer the most because of his deceit.

Everyone who voted for him would just find someone else to blame anyway.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

In Northern Ireland, North Down, one of the safest seats in the UK, is going to switch to Alliance from the DUP. But of course this means nothing.

On big matters important to voters maybe they do. Labour told their core support in the 2017 election they would respect the referendum result and leave (inc customs union etc). They reneged on this. Also I’m guessing nobody believed the manifesto was fully costed and would be paid for by the super rich (the uncosted waspi of £58bn and no cost nationalisations to name but two dubious areas). These are the things that matter to voters.

The 2017 manifesto was being panned for the same reasons this one was. The big difference is Brexit. Though let’s get one thing right, Brexit is a Tory mess from start to finish yet they come out of it smelling of roses. For the most part the manifesto was a sincere effort to improve lives for the average person. Costings matter but the Tory one was criticised on this front as well with tax cuts being promised alongside spending rises. Openly false pledges on the recruitment of teachers and nurses. Yet they get away with it because of Brexit which they have botched from start to finish.

I have said my piece on Corbyn most of the year. I wanted him out well before now. But you will forgive me if I don’t share your view entirely on the wider situation.

Tories gain Labour stronghold Workington for the first time since 1918.

 

[tisza]

Workington is a slaughter, from +4000 to - 4000

Alan Johnson laying into lansmann and Corbyn

 

[SBAndy]

Absolute bloodbath. Heaven knows where Labour go from here.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The Tories now speaking of mass investment in public services. Funny how they get away with that

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

The scene was set when it was only a marginal in Sunderland of all places

 

[SBAndy]

Then Red Ken comes out with “the Jewish vote wasn’t very helpful”. For fuck’s sake you senile old muppet.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Corbyn must go surely his politics are years behind?
Left wing ideas just don’t work with us white van men and decent hard working family guys!!
Labour are years behind just like Michael foot in 83

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Peterborough another Tory gain according to ITV
