Typical. First time I vote Tory and this happens...

Article 50 had been triggered and we were on our way. May has put all this in jeopardy. Even David Davis is now making Brexit concessions.

Have to admit I don't understand my country. However bad Tory campaign was, how can people vote to put Corbyn, McDonnell & Abbott in charge?

get it right up ye, ye purple-faced pricks

the terrorist group Ulster Resistance was founded by a collection of people who went on to be prominent DUP politicians.

Twitter won it for Ed Miliband, Scottish independence, Remain and Hillary Clinton- let's do the same for #VoteLabour - the terrorist's pals.

Do we need an inverse of this thread for e.g. applauding Matt Zarb-cousin obligingly appearing out of nowhere as this fully-formed oracle of Labour optimism and being completely right about nearly all of it, and verbally obliterating dickheads left right and centre in the process

And I guess Bastani being a bit vindicated and Owen J seemingly resisting the temptation to turn into a full cunt wrecker and getting onside again

Lineker may have voted labour this time, though he didn't explicitly say so. Pretty sure David Gower is a tory, but as far as I know the stylish left-hander doesn't make a thing of it. Nick Hancock I picture as the sort of guy that would have been stridently #corbynout for two years, but is spending today laughing at tory embarassment and Theresa May. Rory McGrath is such a dick that I actively want him to be a tory, but I don't think he actually is.

As a native of Cambridge you hear many stories of mcgrath's cuntishness even before the recent business, no idea how he votes tho; agree Tory would rhyme pleasingly with both his name and essence, which is that of a baleful, malevolent scotch egg

I prefer this follow-up to the Dawson tweet if only for the claimed identity of the poster.

This did happen, I know exactly where it was, and at what time it was. I also know the owner of the café. #fact https://t.co/K2lmXg84m5

W1ll1am H0ul1han 9 Jun 2017 9:02PM

I've re-read George Orwell's 1984, after a lapse of over 50 years. It's all there. It's hard to stomach the truth that 40% bought into into the Jezza myth, especially the young. Learn the hard way was my Mum's saying. It looks as though that's just what we must do. A pacifist and a marxist is being applauded. So this is how freedom dies. I lived through the '70s but the future, if May fails, will be far worse.

Jezza's cry of 'We won' is very Orwellian. God help us.

@W1ll1am H0ul1han - it should be required reading for the young ...perhaps then in their limited times of sobriety they would finally get it....

Oh man this is great, just came across this gem now: http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/hung-parliament-yougov-model-not-true-a7764591.html

YouGov has now published its election model, which will update vote share and seats estimates every day, with a lot of explanatory material. (The numbers are slightly different from above.) I do not pretend to understand how the data translates into individual seat results when, even with a huge national sample, there are only 75 respondents per constituency per week. So my views above still stand.

Shouldn't John Rentoul actually ask someone who might know about the bit in bold ;-)

They have listened to the electorate and replaced "strong and stable" with "getting on with the job".

obviously i'm still largely for fully automated gay space luxury communism and pundit heads on poles

In reality wouldn't the concessions be austerity-lite (only killed 27 disableds this month - congrats!), a few extra billion for the NHS with added creeping privatisation, some minor assistance to ailing Local Authorities. They can't even start to address the decay caused by 7 years of austerity without going at least 3/4 Corbyn themselves, meaning not being the tory scum that they are to a massive degree, which surely isn't going to happen.

for 3 seconds you think "it would be interesting to unravel and analyse his politics" and then you think "nah, wasteman, hope he dies"

i mean that assumes that he has an actual stable political worldview and not just 'i love everything that winds up sjws'

the harperson speaketh

Harriet Harman, the former Labour party deputy leader, has said Jeremy Corbyn should take the credit for the party’s success at the general election and she would now expect all Labour MPs to want to serve in his shadow cabinet.

Speaking before a meeting of the parliamentary Labour party (PLP), Harman, who has been in the Commons since 1982, conceded that her earlier doubts about Corbyn’s leadership had been misplaced.

As another influential Labour backbencher, Clive Efford, argued that the existing shadow cabinet deserved to keep their positions, Harman said she would expect former critics in the party to now be happy to serve under Corbyn.

Harman told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme she had been wrong in her assumption that Corbyn could not take the party forward.

“He’s confounded those expectations. Just as, if we’d have lost seats under his leadership, he would have had to take responsibility, we’ve gained seats under his leadership, and he can take the credit for that.”

Harman said the atmosphere among Labour MPs even shortly before the election had been morbid: “We were expecting the Tories to lay waste to us. Instead it turned around and we come back coherent, united.

“The atmosphere is verging from on one hand relief to jubilant, and the Tories are in disarray. And Jeremy Corbyn has to take the credit for that, because he was the leader and he’s gone forward.”
