Dignité. Toujours, dignité.

I know UK goons are completely unfamiliar with the concept of centrist politicians winning on the basis of a unified left-of-center vote and then delivering on promises made to more left-oriented voters to keep them happy.

It does exist, just not for you. Ask your great-gran about the olden times.

I saw a suggestion that making it to the run off could be great for the tories as it suddenly annuls a ton of labour/green second preferences for the other or something

I genuinely think having an affair could only help him, his main problem apart from having no policies or political acumen is the fact he's such a painfully boring dweeb so getting a bit of that Boris energy might help

i mean probably not given the papers will call him a love rat instead of a legend, but it's not like he can sink much further

he would gently caress it up and the daily mail will have headlines like

centrists share a weird delusion that centrism is insanely popular and they're Very Smart People leading the common rabble for their own good. nothing makes a liberal melt down quite like being faced with hard evidence against that

he is absolutely a plant, but has convinced himself he isn't. tale as old as time

They should unironically run Blair in this seat, just so we can get past the "only Tony Blair can save the Labour party" message for once and all.

actual election winner tony blair being parachuted in and immediately demanding to drive the car would be nearly as funny as vampire tony freshly risen from the grave being staked on live tv by a by-election loss
