How are Labour doing after their first 12 months

Feel sorry for Brian Rose who lost his £10k deposit and must have spent a fortune on his campaign to finish a distant last. Quite the… character if you haven’t seen him.

I'd never heard of him and in all honesty having just read this after the results I still haven't got a fcking scooby.

Tbh I'm gutted for Andy Street, came across as a decent bloke the little I've seen of him.

Shame, the kind of Tory who should remain in politics. Sunak is a ****. His fault.

Street should just leave the Tory party tbh.

Hes bickered with the leadership a few times and now he's lost his job due to them.

He could defect to the Lib Dems and tbh, probably be their leader in a few years.

That's not a bad shout. He'd be a good fit and add a lot of calibre to the Libdems.

Shame though as he would do the same in the Tories. They need more like him.
 
Its hilariously weird


Like peej celebrating avoiding relegation again

Remarkable that they are celebrating his reelection when they are carrying out an investigation into the rampant corruption associated with Houchen’s baby - The Teeside Freeport. Seems to have passed public land to his mates who have then sold it on, making huge profits.
 
Imagine a racist britun first candidate behaving like that.
 
Imagine being a boro lad and posting this about londons mayor lol

From what I've heard over the past week (I don't know much either about it) is that the SNP is a broad church. Domestically it ranges from far left, centrist, right wing. The only common strand holding them together is independence. Sturgeon ruled with an iron fist to keep them all toeing the line.

When she left, it was like the Fergie effect. None of the big hitters wanted the job bcos like Fergie whoever came in was going to inherit a whole heap of problems. They all knew it would be a transition/caretaker job. Most ppl I've seen talking about him are saying the FM job came too soon for Yousaf.
As a member of the SNP I can say that the membership by and large is more radical than the leadership. Most of the SNP membership is pretty left wing as is Scotland. As you say the common bond is Independence and the membership accept that we need to appeal to as wide an electorate as possible. The SNP is a vehicle for Independence. Once Independent then all the parties here would change and who knows who would get elected except that it would probably be left of centre. Nicola Sturgeon is hugely popular and is not suspected by the SNP members of any crime despite the media. The media is toxic to the SNP. BBC Scotland is a state propaganda machine and nothing more. Westminster is desperate to stop Independence and they will continue to do everything they can to stop it happening. It won't work, in the end Scotland will be an Independent country. The young people poll at 70% in favour of Independence.

If independence was as overwhelmingly popular as you suggest, the SNP wouldn't need to be centrist panderers attempting to appeal to a large a base as possible in order to force it though.

There would be multiple parties, all after the same thing, which would not need to pretend to be a single unit.

The SNP has attempted to take ownership of independence and have failed to hold up to even light scrutiny.

Scottish independence, in comparison to Northern Irish republicanism, is really a joke.

And anyone who suggests, even hints, there isn't a ton of nationalist Scottish dung propaganda press machines, they're having a laugh. It's all over the place.

Scotland is 50 50 at the moment I did not say it was overwhelmingly popular. Why are you so angry?


How much do you really know about Scotland? Independence is not a joke it is the normal state of affaires. That's what countries do unless they are colonised.
