Polarisation is a blackhole, if you want Labour to get in you have to counter the flight to the extremes b

If you an figure out how to do that, you will be able to turn a worldwide trends around. Parties closer to the extreme right and left are on the up around the world.

Better people than me are working on it.

But we need more people taking an interest.

I have about 10 books to read on mass movements, counter insurgency, red teaming and geopolitics to get through first.

Alliance

They are the Norn Iron party aren’t they? They had a seat in 2010?

There is also a fairly large faction of remainers who still just want Brexit done cos they are fed up with it.

Farage and Bercow finding much to agree about (and laugh about) on C4.

Non-sectarian NI party, allied to but not the same as the LDs (for example, Naomi Long didn’t take the coalition whip 2010-15)

Ah, right. Thank you.

Man are they going to be disappointed.

Yes. I suspect that if brexit is the price of getting govt to do some of the other important stuff that has been ignored for 3 years.

Labour also have to grapple with the idea that they are now a party with 3 divided groups – the urban, University grad socially liberal, the working class, socially conservative, former union people and the young. Good luck getting them in the same tent.

Hoyle is speaker, other main parties dont stand.

The way I read the situation is that Brexit was the issue

If you look at those early results and votes picked up by the Brexit party that’s pretty obvious.

He was the Brexit candidate but they followed convention and stood down so he changed his name and stood as an independent.

Ex labour MP Ruth Smeeth just tore Corbyn a new arsehole live on sky hahah.

Dodds gone. Hilarious.

So anyone missing them yet?

I think we’ve got quite enough lies, Fabrications and war zones to deal with, without bringing them back, don’t you?

Think I’ve lost it with the North of England. Once a proud region of working people with open minds who had each others backs. Now just a nest of unthinking, selfish, blinkered, and frankly racist *****. ‘Night all.

Yup. I’m going to try my best not to hold this against northerners though. Will be hard. Off to bed. I’ve drunk enough. School run will be fun.

It’s all over, isn’t it.

They needed to gain 20 seats. They’ve already done that, they now just need to continue to break even over the next ~450 result announcements.

****.

Yup, predicting majority of 76 now.

It’s done, night folk, see you on the other side.

It’s in the pocket of your shell suit, with your happy Mondays bucket hat.

This made me laugh.
