LIVE - UK GENERAL ELECTION RESULTS 2019

[dmlaw]

Arron Banks? It's like a parade of the worst people in the world.

 

[Lucille]

KEIR STARMER for 2024.

 

[Lucille]

Quite surprised Cheshire is a labour stronghold.

 

[Indie]

I guess that started with Blair. Except the Tories hadn't quite yet weaponised Eurosceptism as an electoral tool to manipulate the uneducated.

I should note that York will be Labour and remain tonight.

 

[dmlaw]

Quite surprised Cheshire is a labour stronghold.

It's not really Cheshire. Halton is next to the Wirral. It's basically Liverpool.

 

[Kate]

I can't deal with any more gloating cunts, I'm going to bed.

 

[Lucille]

I should note that York will be Labour and remain tonight.

am I part of the problem because I think anywhere worth living voted labour/remain

 

[Lucille]

Who’s this vile Labour Party member on tv throwing Corbyn under the bus right now.

 

[Lucille]

Apparently his policies were TOO GOOD.

 

[VoR]

TBH I fully endorse throwing Corbyn under the bus.

Labour need to draw a hard line under him, or they'll never win trust back again.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

If Moopy is a microcosm of progressive political voters then I think we've seen that Corbyn is at the very least divisive.

 

[dmlaw]

Yep, Corbyn's done. There's room for an argument about why this has happened and the best way to beat the Tories at the next election. There's no way to argue that Corbyn specifically hasn't failed.

 

[Lucille]

His policies were solid, his problem was the press convinced everyone better living standards and an even distribution of wealth weren’t in the interest of the countries poorest.

 

[VoR]

His policies were solid, his problem was the press convinced everyone better living standards and an even distribution of wealth weren’t in the interest of the countries poorest.

Maybe. But there's no realistic way back from that without substantially distancing ourselves from him.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

His policies were solid, his problem was the press convinced everyone better living standards and an even distribution of wealth weren’t in the interest of the countries poorest.

The majority of the country aren't poor though. For better or worse empathy politics hasn't worked.

 

[dmlaw]

The majority of the country may not be poor now, but give Johnson time.

 

[Indie]

I am done with this country.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I see most of Moopy has given up and gone to bed.

 

[VoR]

I was 24 when the Conservatives got back into government. I'll be 38 the next time there's any realistic chance of a left wing government.

I could weep.

 

[Indie]

I see most of Moopy has given up and gone to bed.

fuck you

 

[dmlaw]

Well, this is a depressing experience. At least by staying up I can channel some generalised sad and angry feelings at the Tories rather than at anything else.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I was 24 when the Conservatives got back into government. I'll be 38 the next time there's any realistic chance of a left wing government.

I could weep.

Its a hard stretch to see Labour winning next time. They'd need an astonishing swing for that.

 

[Indie]

turns out i am very angry

 

[VoR]

Its a hard stretch to see Labour winning next time. They'd need an astonishing swing for that.

Oh I'm well aware.

 

[dmlaw]

I don't want the Workington result.

 

[Lucille]

The only benefit of this whole night is the snp winning 45 seats.

 

[dmlaw]

I don't want the Workington result.

Didn't want that.

 

[Lucille]

FUCK.

 

[Lucille]

Turkeys something something Christmas

 

[Indie]

Goodbye Scotland

 

[VoR]

The newly elected Tory MP for Workington was a UKIP candidate in 2015.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The newly elected Tory MP for Workington was a UKIP candidate in 2015.

Eurgh

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Some of the labour people now are acting towards Corbyn like those friends who comment on the dumping of a boyfriend but didn’t say anything while you were with them

 

[dmlaw]

The newly elected Tory MP for Workington was a UKIP candidate in 2015.

Of course he was. The Tories are basically the far right now.

 

[VoR]

Jenny Chapman DEAD

 

[ILL ADVISED]

That Jenny Chapman loss in Darlington. Holy shit

 

[VoR]

Arron Banks looks like he's swallowed a beach ball.

 

[dmlaw]

Heidi Allen is talking about poverty and Arron Banks is saying 'you lost'. I can only assume that he is in favour of poverty. THE MASSIVE CUNT.

 

[ILL ADVISED]

Aaron banks has no place anywhere. Absolute CUNT

 

[dmlaw]

It's just one more example of the absolute contempt that the right have for anyone who won't vote for them. They've no interest in building a consensus, they just want us all to sit down and shut up.
