Hello, Now who will be in Keir Starmers Cabinet ?????

Is Angela Raynor now going to be deputy prime minister? Imagine that, becoming deputy prime minister when you fell out of school at 16 because you couldn't keep your legs closed and got up the duff, have 0 qualifications and only got where you are by becoming a union rep and joining the party. Is this the shining example the working class should follow?

I predict a road crash for Labour who’ll call a new EU referendum towards the end of their term in an attempt to mess up Farage et al. 
No chance of proportional representation discussions early doors but who knows later on, unlikely in my view but hey ho.

Spot on.

A new EU referendum will seal Labours fate and guarantee a reform take over. I say bring it on. 

Do they really think the public will vote re join including taking the Euro ext 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The main contribution of the Reform votes so far seems to be strengthening the Labour majority, bit of an own goal for our shooting fraternity.


Not really.
 

If you added together the reform votes and Cons votes Labour had a majority regardless. 
 

Considering Reform had over double the votes that the cons did in the seats I saw, you could argue votes for Cons took votes away from Reform to strengthen the Labour Majority!

Sadly many lieboor supporters are thus.

You increasingly appear to be a disciple of the Farage gospel, and why not he’s got everything right so far.

Let’s leave it a few months, wait for the next yougov poll on rejoining the EU and see if noises start up within Labour on this topic.

Bear in mind they have a mahoosive majority (albeit for now).

A smaller majority, yes my point was it’s been strengthened.

Your logic doesn’t hold on your second point. The cons migrated to Reform not the other way around.

Not all voters moving from Con went to Reform, that’s obvious from the Lib Dem gains on previous Tory seats.

About as accurate as the poll was in 2016 possibly?

Possibly, but we could always glue ourselves to the road in protest. :)

really do wonder who control the Tory party? 

I don't think people like Rishi, I just can't get Will from the in-betweeners out my head, nobody voted him in, and he's done nothing.

think the majority of reform voters would not vote a Con after their betrayal after the last 14 years. I'd look at it the other way around, it's thanks to Conservative votes that Labour have taken the share from reform, which is now the true Conservative Party. 

I think your dreaming,  people aren't happy so voted Reform because they didn't want Labour, but it's given them Labour, then look at SNP, massive collapse up there, giving how many more votes to Labour. 

Labour have been GIVEN a massive majority because the other parties have had long enough and people were fed up.

So now we wait to see what happens

I disagree on Labour and Conservatives being the same thing. May justify your Reform position but doesn’t wash with me.

There’s no point crying after the fact, Reform voters are supposed to be the enlightened ones😂

Each to their own but I think the polling proves the point.

Long faces in the yot club last night, the usual tories pontificating that voting reform was a wasted vote. Well in Castle point the cons got 15,485 votes, Reform second with 12,234, so we are still stuck with an invisible useless mp, here voting labour was the wasted vote.

In Southend the tories got kicked out by labour

You regularly speak up about anti-semites in Labour but rarely, if ever, seem to balance that with reference to Islamophobia  in other parties.

It’s difficult to ascertain if this apparent bias is predominantly politically or religiously motivated.

 

Why do I need to balance anti-semitism with any other cause? If you posted something anti-Russian, would you feel the need to post something anti-Ukrainian?

I have no bias. I don't agree with discrimination full stop. Please do not spend time ascertaining, as I suspect it is quite hard for you.

I would predict that Labour will follow the exact path that Welsh Labour have in Wales and almost immediately target a licensing scheme for game bird release via Natural England. 

If you have a renewal coming up for either a SGC or FAC then now would be a good time to stump up the extra few ££'s for a coterminous renewal. Within a year you'll be facing a charge of £400+ per renewal. 

I would also recommend a BASC membership if you don't already have one. Like them or not, BASC are going to be the single most important asset that shooters will have over the next 4 years.

A "cop out" result.
Apathy Rules.
Estimated turnout less than 60%, Labour getting estimated 36% of the vote (Metro quotes).
Labour win by default, not by majority approval.

ERRRRRRR,how is 60% of the vote not a majority 🤷‍♀️

36% of 60% turnout equates to 60%

Reform get the third biggest vote share and get 4 MP's and yet the Ed Davey stuntmans party comes fourth and gets 71
