May 1st elections

Just don't expect me to write anything positive about the May 1st election, because I was refused my democratic right to vote due to the ridiculous plans for realigning political boundaries.

I am seething about the way Labour are doing everything they can to influence voting in their favour. At least they have taken a bashing from Reform.

Labour needs to go further and faster on promises, says Starmer

He's utterly clueless

Starmer still seems to be relaxed over Ed Millipede's crusade to destroy the country with his psychotic obsession with bloody net-zero. He also still doesn't seem to have a problem with that proven liar, Reeves, as a completely incompetent chancellor who is totally out of her depth, doing her part in destroying the economy.

Reform's successes might make Starmer think, and mumble a few things like, "go further and faster on promises", but, he won't do anything, and he'll continue with his dense head in the sand, only pulling it out to cosy more to the tossers in Brussels. He bangs on about a "reset" with the eu, but why can't he be honest for once in his pathetic life and admit he wants to put us back into the unelected, unaccountable and corrupt dictatorship in Brussels?

Starmer is clueless, as well as incompetent, untruthful, spineless, and is a first class c***.

I believe it's called Gerrymandering but seemingly not when this government does it.
It's also clearly a delaying tactic but probably just delaying inevitable. Considering their seeming incompetence and lack of any real noise, I'd say this is going to backfire. You yourself could be relatively indicative of what many feel about it. Result: protest vote - Reform.

It'll be alright nhp, when Starmer was asked to comment about Reform's success, he said "I get it".

An absolutely useless PM.
 
Interesting set of results. Be fascinating to see how much the postal vote impacted. Where Labour and the Tories do have an inbuilt advantage is their organisational ability at a local level.

Been trying to find out where the break down of the postal vote in Runcorn is? Any thoughts on where that can be found? Been searching high and low.
 
Reform have till the next general election to grow and learn. I have no doubt that they will be the target of an avalanche of dirty tricks and accusations in that time, and Labour and Tories will be making all kinds of promises that we know they won't keep.

If we want to have any hope of ending the steady destruction of Britain as we knew it, then the electorate must take a chance in 4 years and vote Reform.

Staggering numbers. Of course, already the usual suspects are claiming this shows a straight Tory to Reform, Labour to Green/Lib dems but the picture is so much more nuanced.

Just wish I could be more excited. Farage is pure containment. Suspect his handlers will need him to pull of a major faux-pas in the next couple of months, just to keep the momentum in check.
 
I see the Green Party are moaning about Reform and demanding a change in the voting system to block them from power.

They would do better to start asking why they have failed in the council elections. Yup I said failed.

With the country holding both Tories and Labour in contempt this was a perfect opportunity for the Greens to build up their supporter base. However whilst they did increase the number of councillors it pales against the strides that Reform made.

The Greens don't seem to be able to break out of their 7% ish voter turn out at General Elections. If ever there was an opportunity for a protest vote this was it and yet they only managed to increase the number of councillors by 44, hardly a ringing endorsement.

It's because no matter how virtue signalling everyone is, they don't want the endless Green taxes and restrictions on everything. Very few put the environment above self interest. They just like to pretend to. Mainly because it's good dinner party chatter to talk about the different breeds of chicken they have in their sustainable garden.

And hopefully reform councils are going to stop putting stupid low traffic bans on roads just to push traffic to where the air sensors are to “highlight” pollution artificially.

Reform will have a battle to get things done at local level, the unions have already told their members not to co-operate. There are plenty of savings to be made but I doubt they will have the power to push them through.
 
After last year’s catastrophic defeat, and with protest votes cutting across every ballot box, we knew Thursday would be very difficult for our party. Even in better times, defending the strong 2021 result would have been a challenging task.

The trust in the Conservative Party has been seriously eroded and it will take time for it to be restored.
Whether Kemi Badenoch is the person who will restore that trust is a matter for debate.

'The most ungracious divisive clunky acceptance speech in memory' - re: Andrea Jenkyns

She doesn't represent 70% of the Lincolnshire population, or nearly 60% of the 30% that did vote. She does represent a specific type of person though and that's a damning indictment on Lincolnshire sadly.

Copy of an electors disappointment I think a majority would agree with.

But not enough of them voted against her.

Brexit means brexit

They had the choice.
