Things like this is why I just don’t think Labour will learn the lessons it needs to.

Next election could be even more of a wipe out.

they'll never be consensus on how to move forward while the two main factions are at war and the warring doesn't look like stopping.

Thought that’s what you want though. No patronising or condescending of the working class there in that tweet.

No but he had his chance, and many Labour supporters can't let him go .
Still cling onto him like he could come back and save the party .

It's embarrassing

He has way too much influence still on many Labour supporters

He’s not coming back - we all know that. And maybe he’s got influence still because the ‘new leadership’ have had nothing compelling to replace what he’s saying. He’s an independent MP now anyway... don’t see why those that don’t like him still worry about what he has to say.

I think she means the fact that if remove all traces of Labour from them and ask the electorate they are very much in favour of the policies.

The Labour Party eating itself,Comedy gold.
Got a beer chilling out, a big city win and the Deniers on here can’t see why people won’t vote Labour.
Have a good evening all Cheers!!

I just read something on twitter that was quite staggering really .

Unionist votes in Scotland were split so much so between Labour, lib and tory , that had they been centralised to 1 party in every region the SNP would have won less than 15 seats .

But that's just made up, this isn't:


but he's got a posh voice and can throw out a bit of Latin so its OK!

It seems when Labour insinuate it, it's the most dreadful behaviour imaginable.

When the Tories actually say it, in black and white, people ask if they can have a lick of their boots and promise they'll give them their vote.

It's at the point where the libs , Labour and the greens need to start looking at some sort of coalition
How much value do any of those 'brands' have anymore? Is there a discussion to be had to merging all three under a new name to try and lose some of the baggage.

Very drastic but I can't see any sign of a Labour resurgence anytime soon and the Lub Dem and Greens are firmly on the sidelines.

Total vote numbers apparently v seats won.

Unionist votes won by around 50,000 overall .

With around 1 million less votes than at the referendum in 2014
Ah 51%of the vote.
Yeah I wondered whether 63%turnout standard or higher because of the chance of referendum?

Yeah I get that but it'd be interesting to see what %of the overall vote Cameron had when he called the EU one

Did anybody actually care a referendum was called though ? As everybody expected a remain win .

This is the break up of the union , its our constitution , 400 years .

Not some trading bloc agreement

Has to be concrete for Westminster to allow it to happen, and with less votes than pro independence parties , why would Westminster allow it...they wont
