I was projecting 10-15 seats for reform.

If the exit poll is anywhere near correct, Reform will have twice the votes of the Lib Dems.

Let's see who on here has the pure arrogance to start dissing Reform UK voters as misguided, stupid, racist and all the rest of it.

I could start a sweep on which posters but what's the point?

The pre election polemic is now in the bin and we will see how Starmer performs as leader.

I suspect he will see the popularity of Le Pen in France as aready made excuse for being unable to pretty please France to accept returnees.

I expect the arrival of illegal migrants on boats will continue unabated but the " processing " will speed up so they can get all these young men from god knows where and are god knows who into the system for benefits, health care etc etc.

The number of arrivals is simple measure easily verified.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

So reform won the election for labour apart from Scotland, that’s totally on the SNP record at being in charge.
In England where I live wissie actual voter share numbers for labour are roughly the same as in 2019. It appears though without reform the tories would probably have scraped home. This tells me that reform policies are very much liked by the public and with 4 seats they are at the table. The shame is that the tories think they are too right wing reading between the lines so they deserve all they got. Conservative in its very description means right wing ffs. If the infighting and clamouring to the minorities haven’t shown them their mistakes then bye bye.

Reform got considerably more votes than the Liberal Democrats but hardly any seats compared to them....Reform having over 14 percent of votes cast compared to Lib Dems's 11.

You have the Lib Dems crowing about their best performance when their representation far outweighs how popular they actually are.

Annoying.

Green Party with the same amount of seats as Reform.

Hopefully the media narrative post election discusses this and gives them the same sort of platform and airtime they give to Reform!!

The SNP are done and quite rightly so

We're doomed!

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
