We've had (another) Tory party flyer delivered, it was pushed through the door by a youth the same sort of age as Youngest Q who wandered down the streets with his headphones on sticking one through every letterbox. I suspect he is purely a hired mercernary rather than a committed activist.

I am now starting to assume that even her agent knows she is a useless twit and is deliberately taking the piss.I assume that was drafted because she expected the GE to happen when the locals were on, and no one checked it before going to print.

Geoffrey Cox isn’t half a cunt. I’d have payed to see a lobster grab hold of his bollocks, we’d have heard him bellowing up here in Yorkshire.

Yeah, you'd think the Tory Whips would have warned him about sheep that go astray.

North Devon was lib dem for ages, only been tory since 2015.
West devon is where they've got that dickhead MP who phones in from Barbados IIRC.
e2a: Wasn't Barbados. He was commuting in from the British Virgin Islands for tax purposes.

Had the Labour one through from Matt Rodda (Reading Central).
Pretty disappointing. Rodda's been a decent enough MP but this was poor. Flag shagging Brit branding alongside Starmer promising a new Border Security Command. Fuck off.
Meanwhile, Rodda (who is genuinely local) is pledging to "get Britain building again". Dude, this is Reading. Leave your chair to go for a piss and some fucker will have converted it into flats by the time you get back.
Rubbish. Boo! Etc.

Fixed that for you.

We had the outgoing Labour MP knock on our door yesterday, to get us to vote for the slab of grey goo Labour have put up for his seat.
Grey Goo himself was unavailable, probably because he lives in fucking London.
Unfortunately Mrs Frank answered the door with a polite but firm thanks but no thanks. I had a whole spiel prepared about how I could not in good conscience help Keir Starmer and his front bench of manifestly corrupt and unfit persons get into government.

Not a Girly Swot, but I like them....
You'd think that a dedicated constituency MP, emersed on the economics and social structures, and life of his rural, North Yorkshire seat, would have at least a passing acquaintance with the fact that sheep are the most disobedient creatures - bar my children - known to man or beast....
But apparently not.
Genuinely wouldn't be surprised if he lost his seat.

so defeated, thinks it's funny
I find myself wanting to quote that often enough that I should probably just keep it permanently open in a tab for ease of copy and pasting.

I use to keep bees on a cattle farm that kept sheep and they are whacky creatures.

Oh, I am clearly wrong as she has just posted on Twitter. She couldn’t possibly get the date wrong again, could she?

On July 5th, either Sir Keir Starmer or Rishi Sunak will be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom1. If you’re interested in the historical context, the first prime minister of Great Britain was Robert Walpole, and the first female prime minister was Margaret Thatcher

Yep, obvs a small sample by the usual Westminster sizes of 1 to 2 k, but I'm figuring they feel it's statistically valid enough at the constituency scale.

Not particularly scientific, but ConHome finds that >50% of respondents thought that their local association was not ready to fight this GE...
