General Election - 4 July 2024

Tremendous announcement, with Rishi getting drenched and D:Ream blaring over his speech

If anything summed up these hideous vile ****s, it was that announcement

Quality

I am very keen to see the back of the conservatives. Unfortunately I cant bring myslef to vote for Starmer, I don't trust him.

I feel politically homeless as a left of centre socialist, having voted for Labour in every election since 1983.

What would be nice is if they actually stopped dissing each other, people may have more respect for them

Meanwhile over the water, dear old Donald found guilty of his hush money lies about the delightful Stormy Daniels

If only Sir Kier would do something like that - would get my vote straight away

As it is, I’ll just wipe my arse on the ballot paper, as usual

Which constituency do you live in? Mine's a safe Labour seat, but I can't bring myself to vote for her as she wants to row back on gay and women's rights in the name of her imaginery friend in the sky. Thankfully it will make no difference, but it would be much more difficult to decide if it were a marginal seat.

How is someone like that a Labour candidate?

Tis just what they are now. Luke Akehurst has been given a safe seat in Durham. The lads a right wrong'un.

Voting Tory then?

Friends in the Labour Party say she kept very quiet about it during the selection process (she was first elected in 2015)and that they only realised something was afoot when they started canvassing and occasionally people would say something like 'of course I'm voting for her, she's a good Christian woman'!

The change in boundaries here (switching from Melton & Rutland to Melton & Syston) brings the first realistic chance of a non-Conservative MP in over 100 years. This includes 1997, when the majority was still nearly 9000. The Labour candidate has only just been chosen, but for me, whoever they chose, they would still get my vote under the ABC rule.

I'm in the old Charnwood constituency so its pretty irrelevant anyway, it will still be one of the safest Conservative seats.

I will vote, either Liberal or Green, and hopefully enough like minded Labour type's do the same to register some form of protest to make Starmer think and change tack.

Part of your constituency is now in with Melton, which is what seems to have changed the dynamic a bit here, as we’ve lost the Rutland part of our old boundary.

I'll be doing the same here. Makes **** all difference as it's either Tories or Labour here though. The important thing to do is remember what the labour party is now when they're up for re-election in 5 years (probably under Streeting) and need the traditional Labour voters back....and then vote Green again.

New “mid leicestershire” has also gained Leicester’s West End / Braunstone which you’d imagine is also redder.

Incidentally that means neither of you are far from me !
