[Ted Striker]

I hope Penny Mordant managed to smuggle out the sword of smiting or whatever it was from the coronation, cos she's out of a job

A Saturday job at a mediaeval theme park awaits.

 

[Voley]

Tories gonna need a new sword bearer.

 

[two sheds]

Well I think Mordaunt may have been unlucky there she's done a good job reall ...



hahahahahahahah

Fruit peeling knife on their current figures

No matter how important you feel he is, at a national level he really isn't.
They have been cutting people of all night it's how it goes. Sky cut Braverman off to go to some insignificant result, and she is going to be a candidate for leader of the opposition.

The way it's going she might me the last big name left

 

[Sasaferrato]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Elpenor]

Mercer out

Another Tory kicked out of Devon

 

[Elpenor]

Bracknell gain for Labour is a huge result

Bracknell historically a white flight town so always voted Tory. Affluent town but people will have had their mortgages fucked by Tories

In a similar vein - Aldershot also gone Labour

 

[oryx]

Mandelson being more complementary about Tory Mordaunt than about the ex-leader of his own party.

It's not about my feelings, though. Them cutting off Braverman was deliberate too. It's putting Reform on a stage that they haven't earned, like cutting to an understudy instead of the stars and then being surprised people talk about the understudy.

Live by the sword, die by the sword

 

[strung out]

Coffey lost to Greens, ha ha

She's gone, but to Labour apparently. Fuck up with the reporting.

 

[A380]

Well, that was worth getting up for!

I'm actually not sure how I feel about this one. On one hand it's obviously funny, but if she had been the next leader it might have stopped them descending to pure headbanger territory.

 

[Voley]

Oh that's good. Can't stand that Johnny Mercer prick.

 

[two sheds]

Mordaunt: "Democracy is never wrong"

but it fucked up somewhat voting you lot in to power

 

[JimW]

He's a very awkward looking man

 

[Calamity1971]

Morduant speech is bringing a tear to my eye.... Not

 

[cupid_stunt]

SEVEN cabinet ministers gone!

 

[Epona]

And how much time is Mordaunt being given on the BBC? She didn't even win, but I've gone to make myself a drink and go to the loo while she's talking, and now are we getting the winning candidate's speech?

 

[kenny g]

JC on c4

 

[Calamity1971]

No one is getting stripes in their lawn tomorrow. Be zig zags and wonky hedges now. Hic

 

[JimW]

That's over half seats declared and Tories not cracked fifty. Probably do better in the slow counting big rural seats but still on for a sub-100 i reckon.

 

[Humberto]

Live by the sword, die by the sword

That's the book of Genesis. Read it. It nourishing , a good read and uplifting,

I'll twat you another life, (this life)
