Election night party
Re: Election night party
This is unbearable. They get a smug Tory f.cker on tv and its awful. Then an excuse making Labour cultist and it's worse.
I've stayed up for every election since 1987. Not this one.

Watching C4. Amber Rudd on panel. Her daughter in the audience was briefly interviewed. Said she'd rather dip her tampons in Tabasco than become an MP. Amber's face was a picture.

Quite enjoying the C4 coverage. Jimmy Carr is surprisingly insightful. Or reality is sufficiently weird right now for comedians to look sensible next to politicians and journalists.

I'm nearly out of booze. I'm down to and weird polish hazelnut liqueur and some weird Czech herbal thing, and some port I bought to take to the UK as a present.

Re: Election night party
OK I'm trying not to be too much of a dick but someone on BBC now just saying they voted Tory rather than Labour because 'they can't vote for someone who puts their ego ahead of the country'.
for f.cks sake. that was absolute disco bait.

Re: Election night party
I mean, I never expected to hear someone honestly articulate a good reason to vote Tory.
But it's always impressive to hear just how inept and mushy-brained so many of them are.

Glad it wasn't just me who saw it and thought that. I mean, it's late I suppose. But it wasn't late when she voted.

Then again, Corbyn can't but have noticed his dire personal ratings.

If you think what I have said was any kind of defence of Jeremy Corbyn then you're mistaken.

Re: Election night party
Nonono disco, the only way out of this mess is that we all agree that Jeremy Corbyn was 100% of the problem. Replace him and everything else will fall into place.

Actually I think we should get rid of Richard Burgon. I don't have a particularly high opinion of myself but I think even I could probably do a better job as shadow justice secretary than him.Bird on a Fire wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 2:30 amNonono disco, the only way out of this mess is that we all agree that Jeremy Corbyn was 100% of the problem.

Anyway, yes it is everyone else's fault except mine and it is DEFINITELY not the fault of the people who actually won this election by being lying unprincipled swindlers who literally do not care about anything except their own power, prestige and money.

Re: Election night party
I certainly believe he was a, probably the, major factor in losing this election, certainly as abjectly as this. Polling and all the stuff coming back from the doorstep has supported this, but we've done all that.Bird on a Fire wrote: ↑Fri Dec 13, 2019 2:30 amNonono disco, the only way out of this mess is that we all agree that Jeremy Corbyn was 100% of the problem.

And how many times have I said around here that dumping the c.nt is just where they have to start to pull it round? Or do you think retaining him as leader is the way forward?
Labour lost because their offering simply wasn't good enough. It's Labour's job now to fix that. Then the rest of us get to decide whether we want to vote for that or not.

Re: Election night party
Let's nobody take responsibility for this.
I'm taking responsibility for how little I've done and that I have consistently failed to recognise that having a small impact on things is just as worthwhile as trying to effect significant change. I need to stop thinking that I can somehow magically change sh.t laws forever, just one day, if I try hard enough and get the right kind of work.
But yeah it's not my fault, just everyone else's.

Re: Election night party
Corbyn blames brexit and the media, stands by manifesto with strong popular support.
Will oversee "a period of reflection"for the party then step down as leader.
