I read a post by someone on FB saying: Labour landslide on less than 34%. Nearly 4m less votes than Corbyn in 2017.

First video I saw this morning was titled: New Prime Minister - Who is Keir Starmer? Which says everything. No one knows who he is or what he's about. He's just a stopgap pundit. At least Corbyn was a real character and you knew he genuinely stood for what he was saying.

I hope the following things happen: 1. I hope Corbyn takes Islington North as an Independent and deprives Labour of one of its safest seats. It’d have been even funnier to see Paul Mason get his arse kicked, but as Clockwork noted, he couldn’t even make the Labour shortlist. Tick. 2. I hope Andrew Feinstein dents Starmer’s vote to at least some extent. This’ll likely be one of those rare elections in which a party’s leader’s raw constituency vote (contesting their first election as leader) decreases rather than increases. Tick, on all accounts. Starmer's vote didn't just decrease- it halved, falling by a massive 18,000 votes. 3. I hope Wes Streeting’s majority ends up on increasingly shaky ground. Him losing his seat to the Independent candidate would be glorious, if unlikely. 500 votes away from losing it. So close, and yet so far. Now the little prick is on the verge of selling off the NHS. 4. I hope Labour don’t take Rochdale back. The wankers will be insufferable if this happens. And they were. Especially Neil Kinnock, who was happy to gleefully rubbish George Galloway but mingle in exuberance with arch-Epstein lover Peter Mandelson during the BBC coverage. Still, Galloway only lost by a margin of about 1000, and Labour is set to lose Rochdale again according to most Electoral Calculus projections (corresponding to recent polls). Fingers crossed it goes to the Workers Party and not to Reform though... 5. I hope Abbott stands as an Independent. If it means another blow to Starmer, I’ll take it. Didn't happen. I'm actually surprised (and disappointed) she's still in Labour. Even John McDonnell is gone now (after voting against the two-child benefit cap). Other than that, sod it. Whoever wins, we lose. It’ll just be fun to see specific heads roll on the night. And- alongside the innumerable Tory casualties- some Labour heads. Jonathan Ashworth is gone, as is Labour's former Blackburn MP. Jess Philips was only 693 votes away from being beaten by the Workers Party too. Fingers crossed for next time. |
