Never been conservative in its history. But then it is a 60% leave town, and Ronnie wasn't running again. To put this in perspective for a non-Brit, this would be like Obama winning in Texas.

I'll put my hands up and admit I got that wrong, but you have to realise what a seismic shock that is. As I said, it would be like Obama winning in Texas.

DieselDaisy Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) IDS got back in. I don't know why remainers are worrying. All you have to do is use the mathematics you used for the EU election and add all the losers up to produce a winner. Or you could just deny the democracy and ask for a re-run.

How big of a majority is it? Is it like how the GOP in the US took the house back and won like 60 seats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toroymoi Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 4 hours ago, DieselDaisy said: Legside Lizzy, a female remainer cricket pundit who writes for The Times, is having a complete meltdown on twitter, virtually wishing death on all Tories and Brexiteers! She is mad as a march hare I should point out. Tories and people who voted Conservative would gladly see poor and suffering people dying in the streets, hungry and cold. That's worse than "virtually wishing death on Tories", they are actively voting for a party and leader who wants people who aren't rich and white to die. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh we just re-elected Alistair Carmichael up here, no surprise really At least he's not Labour or Tory, a Lib Dem is definitely the lesser of evils out of the 3 I think. Alistairs wife owns one of only 2 veterarians up here and I strongly suspect thats why he's so popular tbh. When my dog was alive I always voted for Carmichael out of fear that his wife would leave if he lost his seat - she's a really great vet which made him worth voting for, but without my doggie by my side I was all aboard the SNP train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLegend Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I'm glad I voted yesterday, even though it was an ultra safe dup seat. Alliance had a big surge here and reduced the majority massively. Glad to know I wasn't the only one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
