"The Tory party campaign launch spent time on attacking labour, not the best way to sell ones own vision but a sign of where they are .. Exactly this My neighbour stood for tory in council elections Told me this morning tories are busted and he is voting reform on Thursday. " It's apparent here that the difference in Tory support posters etc is stark compared to five years ago, seen more reform than Tory ones and more labour .. It's a Tory majority of just over 11,000 .. | |||

"Tetchy Sunak- so labelled by Laura's panel. I just saw aggression. " Me too, to the point of being rude. He also appears to be a lone figure, supported by a few half-witted advisors, whilst the rest of the cabinet are either plotting against him, or knocking on doors in the hopeless search for a Tory supporter. But then again Sunk is very clear he is going to win. We shall see... | |||

Hope that poster will acknowledge the success of the Labour/Starmer majority that looks to be on the cards " A Labour victory will just be a sign that the electorate are thick, gullible, and have been misled by lies and probably foreign interference. A second vote will need to be held in 12 months’ time to determine whether they really knew what they were voting for. Also, given that Labour’s vote share will be a small percentage of those entitled to vote, they will have zero mandate. | |||

Sure someone quite clever once said the definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different outcome. Just think the electorate have had enough of the last 14 years of Tory mismanagement. Sick of being taxed more than even. Taxed more than anyone in living memory. That doesn't sound so thick. As for a new vote in 12 months, is that how the system really works in the UK? Given that Labour are predicted for a large majority not sure your prediction will prove accurate. As for not having a mandate, they will. It's not the winners fault it's the fault of the system. Hate the game not the players and enjoy the next 5 years at least. Mrs x | |||

The Tory loss will be representative of the overall majority for Labour and reform success.
The labour win will be theirs.
Historically (although I haven't fact checked), no party gains four successive electoral wins.
IMO there is more apathy among non Tory voters hence why the tories win on more occasions. Sadly, the apathetic believe "they're all the same": sleazebags, corrupt, liars, self serving people etc.
To those here, I say a new broom sweeps clean (and the old broom can get a much needed rest and makeover ) | |||

But the regular poster who lauds 80 seat majorities as proof of success for Johnson will need to change their success criteria if they do not equally acknowledge Starmer’s majority. I for one fear any significant majority as it stops govt being held to account or more extreme policies being challenged. | |||

Historically (although I haven't fact checked), no party gains four successive electoral wins.

There are historically more tory voters, they will also not vote labour as a rule, I predict the lowest ever turn out for tory voters, thus giving the result to labour by default.
Only got themselves to blame then. We can look forward to five years of Labour Govt bashing in these forums. Probably be service as normal for the centrist fence sitters

And we can be thankful as by the third term complacency kicks in.

As we saw with partygate vs curry gate (with the latter cleared), Labour will face criticism for less infringements. We also see that with betting gate
The shoe will be on the other foot now. The party in power will always face more scrutiny.
The light will flicker for a while and at some point over the next 12 months, it will become a spotlight on labour. "BS I've pointed out labour have already faced more scrutiny for less... or the typical whataboutery that this forum (and media) loves. | |||

Hope that poster will acknowledge the success of the Labour/Starmer majority that looks to be on the cards you do realise starmer will only be getting a massive majority for the exact same reason bozo got one not because hes any good just because the other side are so shit I do. But the regular poster who lauds 80 seat majorities as proof of success for Johnson will need to change their success criteria if they do not equally acknowledge Starmer’s majority. I for one fear any significant majority as it stops govt being held to account or more extreme policies being challenged. But Boris is an inspirational leader etc. his 80 seat triumph showed us that!" Hmmm something tangential about rational people, real world, and motorbility scheme. | |||

I know but why? What is it that causes parties to not be able to stay in Govt for more than 3 terms? What happens?"Talent dries up, unresolved issues and a will to continue against the tide of discontent. | |||
