My parents both voted Tory but neither of them seem very happy with the exit poll, it's weird.

Not as weird as this lovely snipe though.

No.

I will not let this be the end. Not of me nor of the people I love.

I think if there is anything we can do now, it is organise it is build ourselves things that cope and care for people, it is be as kind as we can without limit.

I'm sad and have the terrible sinking feeling in my gut that comes from fear. But all we can do is fight. Probably forever.

You're a good dude Bugman, stay strong.

Solidarity, comrade.

That casual mention of actual personation in Paisley is in many ways the scariest bit of the night, because that's something the Tories could latch onto and with a thumping majority that's all they need to make voter ID happen.

The big assumption this election was that Brexit party voters in labour seats would still be more Tories than labour voters. That was wrong, so our predictions were wrong.

Can we at least accept that Corbyn failed
Sure. He lost the election. But what were the alternatives here. If he went full remain, then that's not making an impact on the exit-polls of the leave voters abandoning Labour. If you ditch Corbyn, then you're just running the Conservative manifesto but red, and it doesn't matter if you win anyway, it's just PFI and Oil wars. So what's the alternative your rhetorically question is supposed to be suggesting?

My favorite was when he was asked a couple weeks ago if he's for or against Brexit, and he said he's for whatever the people want. True leadership.

Truly pathetic on his part. Regardless if he's to blame for these results, replacing him is a much needed step to rebuilding labour's image.

Re midlands:

Thatcher hosed the midlands hardest of any of the industrial towns, repeatedly and brutally. Then the Tories blamed the EU for loving the midlands. Then the midlands voted to leave the EU quite heavily because the EU spawned thatcher and her policies, according to the tories. Then the Tories won the midlands because only they could stop the EU from keeping going with EU Thatchers tory policies from the EU which were loving the midlands, via Thatcher.

also, racism. Midlands is full of racists.

I don’t think analysis like this is useful anymore. It doesn’t come down to why this place is full of angry people. This country is just hosed. The majority of the population are evil and will hurt you if they can.

In reply we all need to start helping where we can on an individual basis. No one should give up. But I think it’s time we realised that the soul of the nation is not confused but actively malicious and that our enemy is nihilistic spite itself.

The fight is more personal than ever and I get some energy from that. And then I remember the nhs and gently caress, I guess I just hope I avoid my families history of heart issues, blood pressure and strokes.

That you are, ultimately, more motivated by a fear of losing face than believing and failing.

No, that is normal and, up until probably a few months ago I would have agreed and signed up for your newsletter. But the fact is that there is nowhere that any of us can hide from this. There is nowhere that we can be insulated from this, and so we must act as any wounded animal does. Fight until we are completely gone.

If 40% of the population won’t even vote for change, they certainly won’t join a popular uprising. Looks like it’s the woods.
