UK Election!

Who put 50p in the idiot?

Can't decide who's worse and does more damage - Sunak or Kuensberg.  Both are atrocious.

The whole episode today would have made a great episode of The Thick of It.

Curious as to why now? Either this was always the plan or a reaction to no confidence letters going in? Either way who cares?

You'd think he would have checked the weather forecast though? 😀

In our house we add a T to her name.

Fantastic news! We're moving house on 19th June. Not sure what to do about our voting address now, not sure we'll have time to get ID changed to show our new address given DVLA delays.

F*** you too the younger generation.

Of course conservatives and non-socialists don't have children

Also it’s a bold move to go on about stopping the boats in summer when small boat crossings are at their highest.

why did you pull your Tweet!

Swearing. I got carried away. But I stand by the sentiment. I've deleted the app again now.

I'm a wee bit surprised tbh, after the locals and mayorals the only time they ever looked at all happy was when they were seeing low turnout, so I figured they'd go for winter and hope that the misery factor would be offset by that.

And the French police will be tied up with the Olympics prep and other partners with the Euros

Generalisation based upon documented voting habits of younger voters. You disagree with the widely reported stats I take it?

Snownrock - Think ID is to confirm person, not address, passports eg have no address confirmation on them

Democracy hard fought but easily lost.

i assume the address does not need to be correct as you can use a passport and various other ID that doesn’t have an address.  BUT since the whole ID implementation is a shit show - if you had any worries, when you register at the new addresses your local electoral registration officer for the election specific ID.

My daughter's 18 on 5th July. She's gutted.

Thanks, my son and his fiance come back to the UK at midnight in the 4th July. 👍

Mrs Sunak got her wish. Trotters up on a beach in California by lunchtime on July 5th

THe D:Ream background music was this guy: rain blew the speakers apparently

If she can make a case to vote, tactically or otherwise to just one of her apolitical peers, she can look back with pride imo.

Here's to 6 weeks of toady mctoadface on TV trying to be relevant. FFS

True but if he helps take votes to Reform from the Tories, he's doing God's work. Lol

Just checked a couple of tactical voting websites - they seem to have been caught out as no info for my postcode (tho likely LD) -

I guess they'll update their algorithms sharpish

That cat has been on the window cill for at least half an hour, in the rain...

Heartless bastards!

They are showing 'The Last Hurrah' on Film4 this evening.

I am surprised by this for sure.  I thought they would hang on longer.  I( do wonder if the letters have been going in,

Bets?  Reform to stand down in tory seats and Farage to get something as a reward - peerage maybe

Got to be one of the best trolling moments I've ever seen. That image of Sunak standing in the pissing down rain, with THAT tune blasting out has made my day!

I reckon they've jumped on the inflation news.

And yes they could have done it inside.

Anyone else get this vibe?👍😁

Suck. A. Duck. I am stunned

For that, he will want to stay in power for as long as possible

And the Mystic Meg award goes to... (I would have said exactly the same!)

Lord Bucket head would have ignored the rain.

I think he's been bounced into it by letters of no confidence.

Sounds that way for sure

Anyone else relishing 'chatting' with any Tory canvassers with the brass neck to knock on their door?

I think he’s been bounced into it by letters of no confidence.

this seems plausible

I hope they come round.

Question is now.....

Try to persuade people to vote Labour,  or try to persuade tory voters to vote reform

Wow!  I could have sworn it would be late autumn at the earliest.   Given the local election results he he knows 4 July will be a beating for the tories and I'd have thought he'd wait to hope we felt better as inflation falls..... does he think things will just get worse!?

OK Labour,  don't mess up and we should see the tories handed their butts.

What would the swing have to be to get rid of that pob looking shitebag?

I mostly got this

I hope folk remember “eat out to spread the virus around” by rishi, hope he gets an absolute “kicking” in a few weeks

A bitter retort to Mercer's snipes. Hooray!
