FT General Election Poll 2019

[Stadt]

I dislike Labour and the Conservatives but feel much more disappointed than I thought I would when I saw the exit poll. Landslide ffs

Biggest night of @MattP and @Alf Bentleys lives and one's on a posting restriction and the others had a heart attack after seeing the exit poll.

 

Nightmare

Remember folks if Alf croaks it we're allowed to make jokes. 

 

Take that and the current state of twitter (and this place!) and I'll likely join him past the pearly gates in short order.

Contrary to popular myth, the Loch Ness monster is also a lesbian.

They love their quick vote counting up there, a real hotbed of it.

I said I’d stay up until the outcome  was certain so I’m off to bed now

I'm in Blyth Valley. 

 

Blyth is an absolute **** hole that has been left to rot for years now.  It is has turned into a bordered up ghost town with pretty bad anti social/drug problems.

 

Not sure what people are expecting under complete Conservative control but the pessimist in me isn't holding my breath for positive change.

Come off it lad, we’ve had Tory voters scoffing at Labour voters since the exit poll was announced.

 

Both sides have been at it and will continue to be at it.

Not all of us though.

It's the inbreeding, gives them extra fingers for counting.

Assuming this is just a vote for collective euthanasia then.

Cheers to you Strokey, even if you’re a political nobber you’re a decent guy

[bovril]

As I said in a post earlier this week, people in the provinces really hate Corbyn. I think people underestimate how much the whole 'London liberals think we're all racist and stupid' is a thing out here, and how much it effects voting.

There seems to be some since Brexit that are more happy the other side have lost rather than their side winning if that makes sense. They don't celebrate the win, they celebrate the suffering of the losers. It's like enjoying seeing upset Villa fans on Sunday more than enjoying seeing happy Leicester fans. It's weird.

 

Nobody like being on the losing side, and nobody likes people revelling in their loss.

They still think they will be relevant and have any say in how they get treated in the upcoming Brexit WA. Boris couldn’t give a flying **** about Northern Ireland.

**** that nonsense. I've spent the last 3 years getting dogs abuse, being told I'm racist, the country have changed their minds, all the old folk are dying out bla bla bla. 

 

I'm allowed to revel in some much needed lefty humility for 24 hours. Cheers.

I’ve definitely trolled you guys a few times but only ones that give it hard. 
Ive probably bitten as much as I’ve handed out over the years.

Unfortunately on such polarised issues, there are only winners and losers.

It's a depressing area so I can see why people are wanting change and they probably think they are going to get this through Brexit.

 

Think Labour had moved too far left for here and things like protecting fishing waters were probably a higher priority,. something that Brexit might bring.
