Yep, hope so.
I also truly hope that they do support the NHS and put a lot of money into areas that were badly hit by austerity.
They will need too. I bet they are s22ting themselves in the EU knowing that Boris has a free run of the house.
 
Wow I expected a Tory majority but wasn't expecting it to be this significant. Corbyn is toast that's for sure. Nicola Sturgeon is going to be unbearable, I can't recall if Boris has stated a position on Indyref2 but she's going to be ramming it down his throat constantly. Brexit was clearly a decisive factor, Labour never had a clear enough position and the Libs shot their own foot off with their revoke and remain stance. Can't ignore that Corbyn is such a divisive figure though even without the unjust media smear campaign. Very disappointing result, it's one of life's great mysteries why the working classes vote Conservative. The future ain't looking too bright. Night all.
 
That's sad you think that way SM. It wasn't just Tories that voted for Boris it would appear many Labour supporters did as well. Labour only have themselves to blame. firstly and most importantly Corbyn was Unelectable. secondly Labour dithered on Brexit and betrayed many voters. They didn't forget.

Corbyn was an issue, someone like Starmer would've attracted many more voters.

Fingers crossed BawJaws loses Uxbridge - would be hilarious!

I don't trust any of these twats of any colour.....

Welcome back, Col.

Hoping that Tories with a big majority will stop being Tories is a bit naïve if I might say so.

I don't think it is such a mystery .
Even some remainers wanted the referendum result respected, plus I honestly don't believe this country will ever vote for such an extreme far left party that Labour has become.
I truly hope we can all try to pull together a bit now.

BawJaws has stated that there will no IndyRef, but the SNP have smashed it in Scotland so will be using this as their mandate for independance - feelings amongst my family and friends is of anger towards Westminster, and if no referendum is allowed then there will be a massive outcry. What a mess

Things are already starting to change. Marr said "We are going to leave the EU on Boris terms".
