Lambeth votes Yes to AV

[se5]

As you are probably aware Lambeth was one of only 10 local authority areas across the UK that voted Yes to AV - 55% of people who voted were in favour. The other areas who voted to AV are Southwark, Islington, Camden, Haringey and Hackney in London along with Oxford, Cambridge, Glasgow Kelvin and Edinburgh Central - all 'clever' areas!

So we can bask in our collective progressive nature! (Although with turnout at 33% maybe the result doesnt reflect the will of everyone in Lambeth)

That innumerate arrogance ('clever' progressive') played a large part in your defeat.

Us Newham scum aren't very clever

Nor us Streatham folk. Massive turnout in Clapham I reckon.

Where can I find how my local authority voted? I can't see it on the BBC site.

Ta.

I can only imagine the pain of realising you're an intellectual oasis surrounded by a sea of lumpen idiocy

So sorry

Everyone else are just Nazis

If only someone had explained to me that AV was 'progressive', things could have been so different

 

[Belushi]

I just hate fairness.

 

[bi0boy]

My MP works hard enough as it is.

 

[Belushi]

(((clever people)))

 

[Voley]

A big 70/30 fuckoff NO from us regressive yokels down here in Cornwall.

33% turnout. AV hardly gripped the electorates imagination in Lambeth. Not exactly big queues waiting to vote.

Cant see what was so progressive about it. The "market" has final say in what goes on in countries ( see Eire, Greece and Portugal). To make "progressive" change to voting system to me is not the problem.

179 spoilt ballots in Lambeth. It's nice to know there's 178 other clever people in Lambeth

 

[frogwoman]

Clever areas lol. Oxford a clever area, well, i wonder where the cleverness is, judging by the amount of beggers I see on the streets every day after work, some of whom look like they've only recently become homeless. And the fact that the universities and cowley BMW plant are the only large employers here. Yeah very clever.

They did though. But you were brainwashed by the tory media so the message didn't sink in. You idiot.

All areas with a huge number of professional political activists and dedicated amateurs. Further proof that AV appeals to the sort of people who would rather politics was all about talking rather than actually doing anything useful.

No great surprise there. I can't say I know anyone in brix who voted no.

Surprised at how fucking pig ignorant the rest of the country is though. Reminiscent of Americans protesting against Obama's healthcare reforms.

'No, we don't want free healthcare, we want to be fucked up the arse by insurance companies!'

=

'No, we don't want a fairer system of electing the people that rule us, we want labour or the tories to be in government forever!'

Nuts.

You could always fuck off back to russia - commie.

I think he meant in the sense of gabi being too thick to realise why the higher primates like him lost the vote in such devastating fashion.,

 

[gabi]

lol. butchers... good to see you venturing into the brixton forum, next stop, education and employment?
