bojo looking miffed, dont know why as hes about to become the leader of the tories

Gonna take a break for 10 minutes, will be back for the rest of the night once I got a brew.

[QUOTE=Craigewan;52330356]New Labour was your cancer within. They're still there, but hopefully this is a rocket up their ass. This victory (whether or not Tories get a majority or not, gains have been made that seemed impossible) is nothing to do with them and everything to do with Comrade Corbyn.[/QUOTE] New Labour was tory-lite. They made themselves electable by ceding to what was 'electable' instead of defining what is electable through policy. It's inevitable that neoliberal centre-left parties are going to move further left as time goes on. We need to present a viable alternative and there is SO much appetite for it among younger generations, who are more politically involved year after year

[QUOTE=Untouch;52330363]bojo looking miffed, dont know why as hes about to become the leader of the tories[/QUOTE] I think we're gonna find the exact same thing we did with the Leave vote. He talks a big game about getting what he wants, but probably doesn't actually want to deal with the outcomes of that in an attempt at making a power play. If May is forced to resign (she should tbh, Cameron resigned over Brexit, and this is a whole new layer of failure from the party), he'll be left in charge of a party that is despised by a lot of the public, that has no actual policy or plan, and will undoubtedly be full of infighting.

Bloody close. That's why your vote matters. For the Americans and uneducated English among us, Arfon is pronounced Ar-von. F literally = V. Unless it's an FF, in which case it's an F sound.

[QUOTE=Justin Case;52330352]Upset? [img]http://i.imgur.com/b420HEI.png[/img][/QUOTE] Good luck with an Overall Majority. Seriously, that's not just a win for you, but fucking all of us.

At the very least you'd've given the Tories a good scare. They fucking deserved it, and worse.

jesus the lib dems are getting wrecked at the moment

i am so fucking drunk right now but i'd just like to say before the blue flood: tonight has been fantastic. no matter what the tories have been dicked royally and realized their hubris. god save the queen. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("PUI" - Orkel))[/highlight]

So, hung parliament is a possibility. Do you think Labour could form a minority government?

oh my god the lib dems actually GAINED a seat what is this madness someone at libdem HQ must be getting a party popper out

[QUOTE=El Burro;52330392]Good luck with an Overall Majority. Seriously, that's not just a win for you, but fucking all of us.[/QUOTE] I had to go LibDem due to the complete vacuum of Labour in my area just to help deny Tory seats but I wanted to show support to my main man Corbs. It's basically the £25 which I forgot to pledge to the party last year.

East Dunbartonshire just went back to the Lib Dems - it was a pretty safe seat for them prior to 2015.

Usually when a party fairs better in it's home territory, it fairs better nationally. No blue wave? Maybe, we shall see.

I've been on the Pimm's and Lemonande since 4pm. On topic: This performance is killing me, I know it won't quite be enough for the incredible upset I really want.

Angus is a cursed name, this much is clear.
