I will give the Tories that they seem committed to power above all (see: the swift falling behind May with minimal bickering in the last Tory leadership election). How could they pretend to be the "strong and stable" party with their 3rd leader in less than two years?

goddamnedtwisto posted:Aren't postal votes supposed to remain sealed until the day of the election? Yeah, it seems weird. It might be a poll of confirmed postal voters I can confirm though, the postal vote skews heavily Tory. If this is true they're not going to be anywhere close to that on the night.

There's basically no good that can come of any of this. (apart from a hopeful realignment of Labour back to being a left-wing party.)

Daveman23 posted:One of the election programme staff. If it just tallies then this data is fluff. You can predict a constituency on that if it's done really well across a few polling districts. It just isn't happening for the whole country. In my day we only sent one person to this as it was harder to see on the postal style ballot anyway.

There might be a higher portion of young people doing postal votes, as University semesters will have finished by June 8th, so anybody who is registered to vote in the place where they go to university, but are going to be back in their home town for the summer would have to send in a ballot. Most general elections take place during a semester, so this isn't an issue.

Entropy238 posted:If corbs pulls this election out of the bag and the PLP still give him poo poo I'm leaving this planet I didn't go but apparently Peter Kyle MP for Hove & Portslade shat all over Corbyn during the hustings. The PLP and other centre right MPs will almost certainly have the knives out in the unlikely event Labour win, they have no shame.

Political education in this country is hosed. My neighbour's just been banging on about the fact that 'they must have made a mistake because there's no Theresa May on my postal vote ballot'. 50 odd year old and she doesn't even know how the voting system actually works.

madey posted:I've got to try something. Get in touch with your local CLP and go knocking on doors - you'd be amazed how many undecided voters there are and how easily they're persuaded. Better yet, if you're in a safe or unwinnable seat, try a different constituency. It's easy, I swear, even goony fucks can do it, and just showing your face and asking for support is enough to win some people over. It's pissing with rain here and I'll be out in it all evening, only fair someone should feel my pain.

Corbyn pulling off a miracle win and then getting challenged and coup'd would be the final knife in the back of Labour youth engagement, and also incredibly dumb. So of course it would happen.

The DPRK posted:To those of you in support of Corbyn this election, how do you remember feeling this far out from the 2015 election? I went out to vote thinking that Milliband seemed a dull but decent enough sort but also kinda wishing I was voting Jeremy Corbyn for PM rather than MP since I lived in his constituency at the time. But also optimistic that things were going to be fine and labour were going to swing it. That feels like a million years ago now and I'm getting what I wished for but I'm too jaded and weary to appreciate it. massive spider fucked around with this message at 14:27 on Jun 5, 2017 |

Ok I'll keep my feet on the ground for the time being It still amazes me how ordinary members of the party were ousted for tweeting support for the Greens years and years ago but there are MPs in the party calling for the resignation of their leader during the middle of a loving general election and that's fine and dandy
