Stop voting for fucking Tories

[yermum]

So after all the bluster from right wing morons and Russian bot farms ULEZ wasn’t the khan killer after all…

[C69]

So Khaaaaaan (see above) increased his majority as I predicted from the outset.
Multicultural London remains a multicultural and low emission socialist bastion.
Suck it up...lol

[sturginho]

Do you know the Klingon proverb which teaches us that revenge is a dish that is best served cold?
It is very cold IN SPACE!

[C69]

I wonder, based on zero fucking evidence, whether the theatrics we've seen with Tory officials not having photo ID is to rub it in that Khan's vote has severely declined due to his supporters not having the appropriate ID.

Pmsl

[Hal Jordan]

Lets see how well DAC's right wing populist uprising is going. Oh ...

To be fair, Reform exists solely to.push the Overton window ever rightwards. The likes of Tice and Farage don't actually want to do anything to change matters themselves (see Farage's trumpeting about EU fishing quotas as opposed to his attendance at meetings about them), they just want to poison wells and muddy pools to force others to do the dirty work. Much more money and notoriety in that.

[sockwithaticket]

Lets see how well DAC's right wing populist uprising is going. Oh ...

And yet the media will continue to give them such a disproportionate amount of air time that you could forgive someone for thinking Reform actually are the UK's third party and not a far right non-entity.

Not that I've watched every minute of electoral coverage, but where I have dipped in, Tice has been interviewed twice yet no sign of a Green or Lib Dem.

[fishfoodie]

Where did the rumors of the London race being tight come from ?

Khan won at a canter, which was pretty much what the polls said all along, & what most peoples gut feeling was as well.

Long may it continue it the saturation makes the rigjt vote for these arse clowns then it's a win win.
It helps Labour and the Lib Dems.

Blackpool South shows that Reform can severely haemorrhage the Tory vote.
It's going to be a tough time in Central Office for Rishi and his poor broken fellows.
Surely a few more defections on the cards s more Tory MPs touting for work.
These results are more positive than Starmer could have ever imagined.
Rishi will be having nightmares.
The recriminations over the racist bitch Hall will resonate for ages.

I knew he would and it was all bullshit and bluster.
Never bought into it at all.
The red wall is now demolished and the cities are very red.
Hopefully the Tories are toast.

It's certainly serving a purpose for now, but UKIP also enjoyd this sort of coverage out of all proportion with their electoral achievements and look where that took us... Admittedly there's no longer a referendum over EU membership to agitate for and it's unlikely that the side they cannibalise from will be in power for a while and thus won't feel the pressure to introduce such a lunatic idea, but it remains something to be wary of.

I also suspect a party like the Greens might quite like to have their profile boosted a bit by receiving coverage that's even somewhat commensurate with their proportion of the vote.

My worries were from first hand interactions with voters, some people were so angry about ULEZ it was a bit Alf Garnett

[_Os_]

I wonder how DAC's populist right wing uprising is doing in London? Oh ...

[Tichtheid]

It’s a brave man that underestimates the Binface

They couldn’t find their IDs

We can use it as a basic filter for morons. you have to be Better than Binface.

Yeah, I still work in London my daughters live in London, all of my socialising is in London. I was born there too if that makes any difference. Our current live construction project is in London, as I said in my intro post the mosque I’m involved with is in London too.

When I was looking to buy a farm there weren’t really any available in London (there are some, but nothing suitable came up)

When we moved from London we had lots of friends saying shit like, yeah good move it’s getting so rough round here, wouldn’t want my daughters going out round here. This was in 2005, we worry more about our daughters going out round here than in London

I’ve travelled quite a lot in my life and I’ve never found a place I love as much.

Do you live in London or are you one of the many out of towners that have their opinions formed by bots on twitter?

Lived there for about 6 years in the early noughties.

Still have to travel in occasionally for occasional meetings.

Been stabbed there in fact. But a long time ago before it was really dangerous. Brixton. Urban kid nicking my phone.

[epwc]

Susan Hall “this isn’t an episode of The Wire”

Finally, she’s said something that all of London can get behind.

I’m still gobsmacked that this was the best the tories could do.

I’m 59, never been stabbed in London,. Had a few racist beatings though, thankfully not since the 80s.

A think a fair bit of it came from Sadiq himself to make sure voters still came out

[Slick]

That was horrible.

I hate when politicians start going on about poor “motorists” as if this is some protected part of society

It’s part and parcel innit. Not like The Wire - mind you.

They kind of are in the UK and USA. People in the UK would be a lot healthier if they walked or cycled some of their short journeys.

It'll be worse come the General Election. Running with a blue rosette isn't a particularly attractive proposition and anyone somewhat intelligent or capable will be looking for work elsewhere (many Tory MPs have already declared their intent not to run again) and all that will be left are loons and the useless.

Yep, mental. When we lived in London the kids school was a 10 minute walk, we always walked them there, the woman round the corner 2 or 3 minutes nearer used to drop hers by car.

Nowhere to park or stop safely

[Stranger]

anything less than 40 minutes on foot, I walk

When I lived fairly centrally I used to amuse myself by sitting on the ledge of my flat window and watching motorists on the school run in 4x4s scream at each other for blocking the street (only enough space for one car at a time). Gave me hours of fun.

Said school had a bus stop right outside and was 5 mins walk from the tube station. Madness on stilts
