Re: Uxbridge/Selby&Ainsty/Somerton&Frome by-elections
I’ve got the beers in and the party poppers ready for the announcements.

Just noticed - the flag’s the wrong way up…
(Look at the white diagonal stripes on the side closest to the flagpole. The white stripes on the Union Jack are not all the same size. The wider white stripes on the side closest to the flagpole should sit on top of the diagonal red stripes.) |

If I lived in Uxbridge I’d be voting for Count Binface.

I was going to put money on Tories holding Uxbridge at 4/1 because of the ULEZ. Nuts.

Something for all the main parties here.
Suspect Labour will be most disappointed as they did not gain Uxbridge. |

As Meat Loaf would say 2 outta 3 ain’t bad.

Labour can point to ULEZ as the reason and that it was still quite a swing. It's a sign of how much things have changed that narrowly missing out on Uxbridge, a seat they didn't even win in 1997, is a disappointment. But Selby is a safe Tory seat. Labour has won the biggest swing in its history. The Lib Dems got a 29% swing in Somerton as well. Looks like tactical voting went on as well. The Tories are getting flack from all sides. Lib Dems surging in some areas and Labour in others. |

Lib Dem’s won’t win an election they are too Anti-Democratic, & Ed Davey is the most boring political figure alive.
P.S why the need for such a long thread title? Changed accordingly. |

Re: By-Elections Results.
Not necessarily. Turn out is lower in by-elections than a General Election.
Labour’s results were dire, they were convinced they’d pick up all three. Never gonna happen under woke policies & his flip flopping nature. Sunak still needs to go, along with Hunt, if the Tories ever have a chance. I deffo think we’re in Hung Parliament territory at the next GE. ---------- Post added at 09:52 ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 ---------- Quote:

Also Labour weren't convinced at all about Somerton. They didn't campaign there and it was always about the lib dems. Labour were 100/1 to win the seat, Libs 1/50. |
