Fair play to her, she didn't sign up to support racism and misogyny. All she wanted to do is get elected to parliament where she would work tirelessly to make other peoples' lives worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6385 Posted Tuesday at 10:15 Share Posted Tuesday at 10:15 This is what happens when you privatise the fuck out of every public service. The irony that they're deeply concerned some of their key votes may not be delivered on time is not lost on me. You reap what you sow.

Gemmill 37941 Posted Tuesday at 16:04 Share Posted Tuesday at 16:04 Tory vote def seems to be firming up in all of this week's polls. They're still way behind and with tactical voting, they should still be fairly well fucked, but might be closer to 150 seats than 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still way behind and with tactical voting, they should still be fairly well fucked, but might be closer to 150 seats than 50. Might be 150, but I don't think so. R&W seem to have been consistently low on Labour, and the longitudinal data there suggests last week was a blip for the tories. Or the latest one could just be noise or may signal the shift of some Reform back to the tories at the weekend. BUT. Theres a lag on these things and the tories have done themselves no favours most recently imo. And the mobilisation of the tories to the very high ground (seats they have 18,000 plus majorities in) doesn't bode well for them. Think I've said it before, but it reminds me of when under Robson we were playing the mackems. We were ace at the time and they were utterly shit. We were 2-0 up after a few arse-raping minutes but that's how it ended. So we'd just beaten them in a derby, and I felt deflated at the final whistle. If the tories get 150 seats on Thursday that is going to feel like a let down for me. I want them to go extinct.
