If I had to guess, and the vote shares were accurate, a lot of the labour vote share went to safe tory seats while the tory share went to labour marginals. Which would fit with the idea of labour's support base shifting. Not that I guess the reason makes much difference.

Grouchio posted:That sounds....fair. You think Bernie over in the states is more competent? I don't want tonight to jinx the impeachment vote or worse. I'd say that they're pretty similar in terms of their relationship with their respective parties. Both Corbyn and Bernie struggle with acting as leaders of an organized political party. National policy-wise Bernie seems to have better finger on the pulse of his constituency. If he manages to land the nomination then he probably wouldn't be alienating broad swathes of the electorate the way Corbyn has. Kaal fucked around with this message at 23:42 on Dec 12, 2019 |

I wish I could leave this lovely country but I'm disabled and rely on family to help me out (because social services have been hosed by the tories). I'm basically stuck here with a bunch of arsehole tories.

I've been known to have a little to much faith in folk making a minimum effort to keep informed. It's just so loving -easy- to educate yourself these days. gently caress.

Zakutambah posted:I just do not understand people. Leaving JC to the side; how do you look at Boris, his performance up until now, his utter lack of empathy, his complete refusal to talk on any real policy over the campaign... how do you look at that, and think "yes, that person represents a party of values I support"? Nothing personal about it, just looking at him fumbling around in any professional role; mayor, politician, foreign sec, prime minister. Absolute clown shoes. what makes you think they're looking
