Tory MPs:

James Cleverly: 39 (up 18 from last round)

Robert Jenrick: 31 (down 2)

Kemi Badenoch: 30 (up 2)

Tom Tugendhat: 20 (down 1)

 

Tugs knocked out. One more vote and then two names are passed over to the party members. I'm hoping Badenoch eases out Jenrick - the party members will wail over their "choice" of candidates. But if Jenrick's name goes forward he'll be favourite with the crazies.

There were genuinely tonnes of people that seemed to absolutely love it to be fair, it was a really odd time.

And you know this, how?

 

Personal contacts? Hearsay? A finger in the wind? Wild assumption?

As it was tonnes, I can only assume they used an industrial set of scales.

Not sure what you mean?

 

Reading people on social media and personally I heard loads of people say how much they were enjoying lockdown and didn't want things to go back to how they were before.

Probably was to be fair if we're talking metric tonnage :P

 

I wasn't expecting anyone to get passionate about the tonnage of people who enjoyed lockdown to be honest.

I’d agree with you - all the introverts loved it

Winds on the coast when it hits are predicted to be max 110mph. The issue is the storm surge because of its track - the wind will effectively drive the gulf waters into the west coast of florida, south of the track.  Storm surge could be 10/15 feet (with waves atop that)

https://news.sky.com/story/uks-population-increases-by-1-in-a-year-mainly-due-to-net-migration-ons-says-13230157

 

In the year to mid 2023, the UK population increased by 1%, the largest increase since 1948.

 

For the first time since 1976, "natural population" (births-deaths) was negative, and so the entire growth in population was down to net migration, running at almost 700,000 people.

But the frequency of these more serious ones is increasing all the time, that's sadly verifiable.

 

Believe me, I wish it weren't the case.

Got a mate in Florida at the minute. Had to flee Tampa and the prices of flights skyrocketed.

 

He managed to get a taxi to Fort Lauderdale airport and said the amount of cars leaving the city was like something out of a disaster movie.

Well said. Storm surge is a big deal that doesn’t get mentioned enough. Newer buildings are built for winds, but water is a different animal. Added trouble with high tide predicted in the early morning hours, right after landfall. Our best friends are in Zone A in St. Petersburg, and left today. Expecting the worst, no sugarcoating it.
