If you've supported every Labour decision over the past 4.5 years you take credit if they win but should probably take responsibility if they do poorly.

I haven't seen that one. When was that?

I've never been a fan. I was introduced to her on the parliamentary terrace bar back in 2012 and didn't think much then.

Just to remind everyone. This election was called by the Labour Party and the Liberal Democrats fuelled by tribalism & Kool-Aid when a @peoplesvote_uk was within our grasp

Woman's Hour was last Friday. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000c2h0

Today programme was three days ago. https://medium.com/@MForstater/belie...e-2770d5e091cf

Turns out the pharma firm, Ferring, is Swedish in origin, now based in Switzerland. The recent six-figure donation to the Lib Dems is apparently the latest instalment of a total £1.4 million over the last few years. The boss who's a friend of Putin, and has got medals from him, is Frederik Paulsen.

Puke. I knew we should have been imposed a UK-wide ban on polls after this fiasco a few years back.

Mrs Brown's Boys voted best sitcom of 21st century

We just don't deserve nice things.

That's a pretty low bar to clear, but if you will deny the electorate their Boaty McBoatface, they will take out their furious anger

I agree with this - or at least it's net neutral.

Yes. Despite exit poll putting both at 11% swing, the difference in the Sunderland and Newcastle results shows it's all about Brexit at least in my region.

Too many London politicans think the rest of the country is like that.

farage is making some serious cash tonight. Him not running in conservative seats seems to be making a huge difference. Im sure he got paid very handsomely for that

libdem + labour needed to do more.

Hes been playing 12d chess since a year before the referendum

They won because the Brexit party won almost the same amount of votes that Labour lost.

Correct. Farage only running Brexit party candidates in Labour areas and Corbyn taking the middle ground on Brexit has crushed them.

Corbyn needs to do the decent thing and hand over the party to John McDonnell to lead Labour to victory in 2024.
