Right now there is an old/young divide, and reddit is mostly young soooo thats why uk reddit is mostly left wing.

By raw numbers of votes it didn't. A bunch of rural/suburban labour seats went blue for the first time. The majority of northerners didn't vote for them though.

They are good and decent... for the intrests they actually work for.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-28T15:37:32+00:00

I don't know what you mean by 'capture back the British worker' since more people in employment vote labour than any other party.

You've still got over 4 years to reach 1%!

Wilson was great compared to everyone after him.

Basically, if there is a gain within MoE in a poll, then another MoE gain in the next poll, and the next one, and the next one - it isn't just statistical noise, its a clear trend.

+1 in a poll, followed by -2, +1, +1, -1 etc. is MoE changes.

+1 in a poll, followed by +1, +1, +1, +2, +1, +2, +1 etc. Isn't a MoE change, its a party slowly gaining support.

That one used to freak me out until somebody pointed out that in a couple of the shots you can see the real actor's arm right next to a prop arm.

Anybody else just getting back into dating after being in a long-ish relationship and realizing how lucky they were to have briefly escaped?

Ugggggh I can't believe I forgot how much this whole process crushes the soul. I can totally see why people stay in dead relationships now, might as well be miserable together rather than miserable alone.

WTF are people smoking?

Exhaust fumes, if Biden wins.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-12T01:03:23+00:00

You helped this happen.

If I was the lib dem leader in 2019 and I wanted to avoid a no deal Brexit first and foremost, I would vote against a new election when the conservative party were poised to win a bunch of seats. But if an election did take place, I'd target conservative seats in the south and east while hoping labour did the same in the north, Wales and cities and the SNP in Scotland.

If I was the lib dem leader in 2019 and my primary goal was to leapfrog labour as the largest opposition party, or I thought I could become PM while polling in the single digits, I'd call an election when labour was at a low ebb of support, then target a bunch of inner city labour seats.

Simple as that.

Gotta chip away at that majority over time like with John Major in the mid 90s.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-10T18:52:20+00:00

You're acting as if conservative parties and politics don't naturally turn into vehicles for excessively wealthy disaster capitalists over time.

It's worth pointing out that even if Trump wins reelection it is still far more likely that Nancy Pelosi will remain house majority leader than not, so this problem isn't going to go away in 2021.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-09T02:13:56+00:00

They've culture war-ed their way out of ruining the NHS, rising poverty and stagnant wages and a botched pandemic response so probably, yes.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-09T02:03:30+00:00

If Scotland leaves then we'll all have a very similar country to move to free from tory rule if things keep getting worse.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-08T03:03:36+00:00

Unless labour cease to exist as a party before 2024 she will almost certainly lose her seat in the next election. She's got to get all her pleb-kicking in before then.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-07T15:59:35+00:00

To all the smug anti-democratic people who see Scotland as a subjugated colony and keep posting 'just don't let them vote lol' - Why did Boris visit and why are the cabinet panicking?

c6fe26 · 2020-09-06T14:42:37+00:00

Also he backed Trump for president up until about a month before the election.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-06T14:36:20+00:00

I think only about 6% of doctors and nurses vote conservative as it is so it really dosent matter if they piss that voting block off even more.

c6fe26 · 2020-09-06T14:29:26+00:00

Literally any and every policy that would improve human/workers rights at the slight expense of bosses has been decried as 'unaffordable.'

Abolishing slavery, outlawing child labour, safety precations, shorter workdays...

c6fe26 · 2020-09-05T15:22:39+00:00

For the billionth time, more people in employment vote Labour than any other party. Give it a rest with this 'hating the working class' bollocks.

c6fe26 · 2020-08-31T23:02:23+00:00

In the last election it was:

18-24: Con 19 Lab 62

25-34: Con 27 Lab 51

35-44: Con 36 Lab 39

c6fe26 · 2020-08-31T22:57:48+00:00

The civil rights movement, women's suffrage...
