Galloway painted himself as running from the "left" - Apart from the tories there was no credible party campaigning as being on the "right"

Also 2017 Labour took over 50% of the vote alone and in 2010 the progressive vote i.e. Labour and Lib Dems out numbered the tories.

2017 was a Brexit election and bucked trends all over.

2010 the Lib Dems literally went into coalition with the Tories so whatever bollocks they were spouting about being progressive they were a right wing party (I mean they are anyway they’re liberals after all)

And? Half the proper elections (not counting the 2016 by-election) the left/progressive vote has been higher than the combined right wing vote

It's a very diverse and it parts cosmopolitan area. It's very different from the make up of the small town north east seats it seems to get compared to.

I’m a Labour member and the way that lot have been acting (throw in Bastani as well) has been fucking disgraceful. Jones cuddling up to a homophobe just because he didn’t like Starmer was sickening. They can all get in the bin, none of them are Labour. And yes Putin and Hussein are both connected to Galloway. The guy is a racist, homophobic c**t who supports genocidal maniacs and covers for authoritarian regimes and the lefts love affair with him because he might annoy Starmer is frankly disgusting.

They can all get in the bin.

Are you serious? Jones and Galloway have been at each others throats all week.

That’s cos they’re a pair of grifters. He was happy laughing and joking with him on his interview.

Jones interviews all sorts of people. Whatever you think of him he's definitely no friend of Galloway.
Not sure I'd put him in the same league as Galloway when it comes to grifting either. Galloway is shameless.

A strange morning where I am checking The Sun for news. Not the usual thing I expect to type. Interestingly, they are/were running a live blog on the Gove/Vine thing. Could be more to come on this.

It’s fucking terrifying.

It is, yet also mesmeric and almost beautiful. Like a lava lamp.

Actual situation is, of course, terrible. But it was inevitable. You put something that will corrode and oxidise into water and it's a matter of when this happens.

We're going to get way worse than this eventually. All that nuclear waste they encased in concrete and dumped in the sea. The half life of the radioactive material is thousands of years longer than how long the concrete and containers will survive so you'll have major radioactive spillages. Again, should have been bleeding obvious from the start.

As a species we can be absolute morons.

They need to make their minds up, didn’t give a fuck last week.

Doesn't say why they're concerned though.

Could well be they've heard someone is showing integrity and faithfulness and they're struggling to get their head round the concept.

Just looking it up I didn’t realise it was Gormless Gavin who leaked the gay affair thing with Gove and Cummings

Brass neck of her.

You are one of them, Julia. Stop pretending you're not to push your own agenda.

Oh, and if you want everyone to be the same regarding restrictions, you could always suggest the posh people could put masks on?
