Not too far away from Homer Simpson being an everyman white American husband in the early 90s to a parody of something that doesn't resonate with modern day material conditions.

The lib Dems have taken Stratford on Avon and the Greens look like they're taking Mid Suffolk, so it looks like third parties are doing very strongly. Poll whisperers are saying it could mean a hung parliament next year which would be very funny.

Looking at ancient forms of Latin it appears to be Textualis a la this chart: Sometimes known as blackletter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackletter So yeah, them being oddly posh. Presumably because they're copying the clock face from Elizabeth Tower (generally called Big Ben's tower):

God that loving cartoon i swear it gets funnier every time i see it. The copy of the daily telegraph, the very newspaper that fired the cartoonist for being a weido covid conspiracy freak, present in the mass grave of all the peoplecwho disagree with him is amazing. If you saw something like that in a kelly you'd think it was too on the nose, just breathtakingly unhinged and petty.

I have to admit the lack of the dog being labelled of all things did strike me as odd when everything else has at least something.

I feel it's telling that the Lib Dems have (currently) about 50% of the gains that Labour have made despite being a much smaller party

They do usually have a disproportionate presence on councils though.

Local elections always provide more third party seats. Different ways of picking councilors, extremely niche local issues (like Plymouth), people more happy to throw a vote to someone who actually aligns with their interest etc. Of course Lib Dem Fight Back is extremely real and your friend, though

No one in my Locals seemed interested in telling me their names, let alone anything that they might stand for or believe in, so I put in as much effort voting as they did canvasing.

If it goes back to con I wouldn't be surprised if they get more central government funding, it is deliberately cut to areas they don't control.

My local journalist is slowly going insane as they'd been telling him the result will be in "in the next half hour" for most of today. He's already started talking about drinking on the job.

Also I feel that 'Other' is getting slaughtered but I seem to remember them doing quite well last time round e: meaning I would think that independent local parties would profit from a CON collapse but they seem to be losing out as well
