General Election - July 2024

Post twoleftfeet »

This appears to be the rumour on Sky. An easy win for Starmer and some big names losing their seats. The Country needs a change but is it going to get one? The thought of seeing that annoying Beth Rigby for 6 weeks though is a horrifying thought.

Making someone Foreign Secretary is usually a ploy to make sure they are out of the country for long periods Like Boris Johnson

"The Tory barons at Central will be sitting in the inquest and looking at two voter segments: the Reform and the Libdem numbers. And as they decide on quo vadis, they will determine what their party becomes. They will look at the rank-and-file, the regional structures, the various bang-for-bucks ratios and will go for what will give them most seats next time round. My money is on the Conservatives going full-on populist nutjob and the numbers show that will be how they can take the most seats next time, especially in the softer Labour wards up North."

"The pro-Hamas/Gaza vote is interesting as it suggests, to me, that those voting for such a candidate care more about a foreign region than they do about the one that has welcomed and offered them a home."

Best thing that's happened to the Tories this election is truss losing. I wouldn't have put it past the blue rinse brigade voting her back in . During the leadership contest . Really should go for tughendhat or someone else moderate but won't . There as terrified of farage .as labour are of the Israel lobby . Which clearly cost them plenty votes among the muzzies .

Did the forty percent of the electorate who did not vote abstain because they knew their vote would be wasted or was it possibly because they saw no difference between candidates?

"How can somebody be both ""economically inactive"" and ""go for the lower-price goods and services""? The latter clearly suggests that the former is a lie."

"ray, I suspect that the days when the original Whigs were a serious political force were better still. Don't hold your breath waiting for anything other than media friendly ""change events"" over the next 6-9 months. Labour may now hold the gun, but they've no ammunition for it."

"One thing Clacton must have in common with Great Yarmouth, Boston and Skegness and Ashfield, apart from a Reform MP, must be a higher-than-normal proportion of economically inactive residents. And however dense they may be, we can assume they know how to count their pennies, so they will go for the lower-price goods and services in the area, and that means the local suppliers of said goods and services will have to employ low-cost labour. Yes, their constituencies will be a magnet for migrant labour of exactly the kind they voted to get rid of. Genious."
