Swing of 16.4% from Tories to Labour in Kingswood

[Zoophonic]

u

In Wellingborough, I feel it was pure arrogance from the Conservative Party to pick Helen Harrison (Peter Bones's partner) as their candidate.

And stupidity

Leadership challenge for the Tories now please, and Sunak to pull the ‘**** you, I’ll call a GE in a pissy fit to spite you right wing lunatics’ now please

* that should be right-er wing, cos he’s a right wing lunatic himself.

Completely out of touch with the public's mood across the country.

Pure arrogance indeed, coupled with a healthy smattering of "....we know best and we don't actually give one solitary f*ck what the plebs think"

Oh.

TV this morning somehow spinning this as a massive night for Reform

Less than a third of voter turn out, but some opposition front benchers might be getting squeaky bum feeling…

 

[Nobby_Barnes]

Odd take when there’s a huge swing to Labour?

The good news is I think she's already said she intends to stand again at the GE

Hope it happens.

 

[Nobby_Barnes]

So 3 out of 10 people voted ?

That's not an election

More like a queue at the cigarette counter ....

Thanks

That says everything about their arrogance. The cameras were out interviewing locals yesterday and one said 'do they think we're daft.'

Get in Labour, shown up these peoples anger as the mask slips. Whooped the Tories and their stinking voters.

I'm sure in your magical world of Tory make believe, the other 7 out 10 are stay at home Tories just waiting for a General Election.

Also all Reform votes are actually Tory votes too. So technically a Tory win with a huge majority.

People struggle every day because they are on NHS waiting lists and their condition gets worse. Voting Tory has shown the list have grown that long its causing a lot of deaths.
We get less for our taxes both income and local every day, the care system is in a shambolic state, schools and education is in a poor state.
We are now in recession and so unemployment will begin to rise.

Some people cosy up to their far right wing mates and go against the ordinary peoples best interest.
W*****s is a way to describe them. You don't vote for political party that does this to people just so you think by portraying this you have a posh image. "What goes around" as they say.

Rees moggs comments were revealing. He claimed that reform UK vote and the tory vote added together would have beat Labour. So the tories know where to concentrate their efforts.

...he's wrong on these numbers.........if that's how politics works Labour, Green, Lib-dem and SNP added together would beat Tory and Reform at these by-elections and at the last election

Good news to wake up to.

Mogg is right in Kingswood Mart but that wasn't really the point I was making. I was making the point that Mogg said the Kingswood result highlights where the tories have to do better, i.e. reclaim the reform voters.
