the campaign looks like it was appalling. I'm sure you feel extra anger it being your constituency. Most of the lib dem vote looks like it went to labour though. who knows what the makeup of their remaining votes were. maybe some remainer tories who would never vote corbyn plus the diehards?
the lib dem activists that were being misleading can shit on their hands and clap though
Given Neil' political views, history, takes on events, and magazines he's ran it's fucking harrowing that he's the only person in media that's shown any amount of frustration about this.
You can likely set your watch to the 2 latter outcomes, just a matter of when not if now. Likely in the next 10 years for both.
This is even more bizarre imagining it with his voice saying it.
Honestly, we're kinda fucked long term. Most people won't acknowledge climate change until it's far, far too late - especially since the Tories and their chums will do everything they can to wring out every last drop of profit before the world implodes :/
You sure?
says gain from Lib Dems.
Could be. Could also be the rampant antisemitism in the Labour party that he refused to address. Could be that he's a Trotskyist.
Jo Swinson going will be beautiful. Going by the swing to SNP elsewhere I think she is gone.
This could be a good sign. Exit polls projected a heavy CONS swing
Portsmouth South
Too close to forecast winning party
64% chance of Conservative gain, 36% chance of Labour hold
"Conservative sources claim they have taken the Labour-held seat of Wakefield, the Press Association reports. Mary Creagh is a senior Labour backbencher and was chairwoman of the environmental audit select committee in the last Parliament. Wakefield is a Tory target and it would take a 2.35% swing to win. "

That's just because it was Luciana Berger's old seat, it's one of the safest Labour seats in the country
Happy for the Scots it must be great to have a national identity you can relate too and get behind.
It's certainly a big factor: their constant attempts to stall Brexit, and then their offer to hold a second referendum, likely just makes them look like Remainers trying to fix the game.
Finucane beating Dodds means a lot to me. I spoke to him at Belfast Pride this year and he was so... Sincere and honest in his personality. He spoke a while about why he supported Pride and he did it like a decent normal person and not an opportunistic bootlicker. I admire him immensely and he legit immediately made me happier with the very concept of politicians doing good by his behaviour alone. I'm proud to have canvassed for him, sincerely.
He'll be as brilliant a rep for North Belfast as Dodds was shite. IMO, it's the biggest swing in terms of the quality of the candidate. From one of the worst to the best. Also, the first time the seat has EVER not been held by a Unionist candidate of some sort.

Raab clings on. The two tory cunts we actually had a chance of removing despite a majority keep their seats.
It is the shining beacon. So sad that ultimately I feel depressed because my life is beholden to a union I don't wish to be a part of and is forced upon me. When we actually are independent I will feel free. I will feel a literal weight off my shoulder. I'm not sure how that is going to feel but I look forward to finding out.
It became increasingly clear they cared more about getting rid of Corbyn then they ever did actually remaining this election.
