    Wasn’t the GE going to be a vote on Brexit where it would show that people wanted to remain?

    A lot of talk from Liberals, liberals and Tory wets that this may now mean a soft Brexit.

    Deluded. Totally deluded like the initial Remain campaign.

    I think it gives Johnson a total mandate for whatever Brexit he/they want.

    I don't want this to sound like I'm lashing out after a heavy stonking defeat but I agree.

    I do think people who voted for this will be ****ed over. Totally.

    But they will vote the same next time, because that is what the media will tell them to do.

    So, why have people year after year voted Labour in Hull? Of course if Jezza and McDonnell were in there would only be one paper, Pravda, and a government controlled internet.

    The thought of Rebecca Long-Bailey taking over and seeing her face regularly on the TV makes me hope he will stay in charge.

    Labour is organised in Hull. It has people on the ground. Other parties, in GE terms, do not.

    So, apart from national issues turning voters in Hull without direct contact, Labour has greater access.

    Labour played right into the tories hands too. Particularly coming up to election time and they were pulling ideas fresh out of their arse every day. Their manifesto was too big, too ambitious, too full of holes. It just poured petrol on the flames of the old adage about them bankrupting the country and all its inhabitants and played right into the enemies hands. They also went and repeated Cameron’s mistake of underestimating brexit. Didn’t help that Corbyn was changing his mind every week that he or the Labour Party were this or that or the other.

    Lacks dignity doesn't it.

    Makes it hard to trust them as individuals again in my opinion.

    Because politics are tribal. And they haven’t, in the Blair years they voted Tory.
