The 2024 UK General Election - news, speculation and updates

Hopefully not 2 Jeremy Vines though, 1 is more than required!
(Yes I do seriously dislike him)

Awful human being.

71% turnout in Stroud, bucking the trend a bit. Though getting Bailey out probably motivated a lot, she was useless.

 

[Epona]

Has Truss been announced yet? Or is it a close run thing with the lettuce?

 

[cupid_stunt]

Tories finally hits 100, still 61 seats to declare.

 

[JimW]

Vermin have cracked 100, I peaked too soon

Still waiting. Lettuce looking crisp.

Still waiting, sounds like it's close...

I gather mogg has bitten the dust

Yep.

Yep.

If Truss loses I reckon she’ll try and join Reform, but get turned down by them. They have some standards.

 

[JimW]

Sky have brought Davros on to speak for the Tories

And I missed Michael Fabricant having the rug pulled from underneath him in Lichfield.

From over him in fabs case..

Blimey, Sky correspondent suggesting Sinn Fein results put pressure for a referendum on Irish unity. Can't see Starmer offering that.

Voiced my concerns over his regards (or lack of) towards the occupied 6 counties some time back.

Be very interested to see where he stands on freedom.

[JimW]

Though he's using the pseudonym Anthony Selden

 

[Fez909]

The scum closing in on 100

 

[Epona]

Still waiting, sounds like it's Cos...

FTTY

 

[petee]

reform well outdid LD in vote total

 

[JimW]

The scum closing in on 100

They've cracked it sadly

 

[Fez909]

The scum closing in on 100

I must be in a delayed feed... Apparently they already did it

And I missed Michael Fabricant having the rug pulled from underneath him in Lichfield.

I was surprised to discover that his life partner is the recently deposed former West Midlands metro mayor Andy Street. An odd couple, with one from the headbanger wing of the Tory party, and the other from the 'sensible' wing (as far as that's possible).

 

[Elpenor]

Have to admit Starmer getting fewer seats than Blair 1997 is a little amusing

 

[bellaozzydog]

Cornwall has changed colour which is a nice welcome getting off the plane Ala Heathrow

 

[andysays]

FTTY

I thought that after posting, but too tired to go back and change

 

[Elpenor]

They've cracked it sadly

Iplayer still says 99 for me

 

[cupid_stunt]

Mark Harper, going, going, gone!

Lost by under 300.

 

[Calamity1971]

Mark harper gone

 

[andysays]

I must be in a delayed feed... Apparently they already did it

BBC website still only showing 99

 

[cupid_stunt]

11 cabinet minsters gone now!
