The Kraken

Meh. I’ve not seen much of him but I went up to craven cottage last season for a game, the Fulham lot around me weren’t very happy with him. He got hooked in the second half after doing not very much.

Big Ange in as deputy and Levelling Up secretary. Rachel Reeves as chancellor. Both pretty predictable. Expecting Yvette Cooper as HS and David Lammy as FS to complete the big 4.

And have those foreigners coming over here and taking our jobs? What a conundrum.

Like where on the continent? I’ve seen Spanish healthcare up close and it’s absolutely brilliant compared to here, completely night and day, and free at the point of use.

What a pair of cunts 👍

I’m sure he will Jamie. The country is fucked, what’s first on the list? Foreign secretary!

Old sour face Kuntberg isn’t taking it very well.

Duckie will be pleased with that 👍

I don’t think a majority want it. That’s my feeling anyway. The alternate vote was an absolutely shambles that the LDs messed up but the overwhelming verdict was for FPTP. I think a form of PR would be fairer but it’s moot, I don’t think it would get anywhere, IMO the country is too entrenched with FPTP. Plus Labour and the Conservatives definitely don’t want it. A defence of “if you’re so shit you get voted out” is pretty limited to me, I’d rather a government didn’t get the point of vastly underperforming and had cross party checks and balances every day so we don’t get to a point where we are, a party eventually evicted for being utterly shit for years.

I don’t know about being unpopular. But repeatedly banging the drum for FPTP while simultaneously admitting you haven’t got the slightest clue about PR (let alone how it could feasibly actually be better) doesn’t suggest you’re on top of your brief. Fair enough if you’re happy with it in your own mind, but “I’m happy with it because…….reasons” isn’t a brilliant sell.

Just watched Daisy Cooper on BBC and sadly just echoes the whole joke of Ed Davey, the joke party. Wes Streeting on now, I think he’s a contender for the next Labour leader. Very good on telly, let’s see what’s he’s like at his new job.

Da da da da Fuck the Tories. I wonder how many of the Reform candidates will be in their jobs within a year.

8 so far. If she’s anything like me she’s just warming up.

Narrator: it wasn’t.

165 🤣

That’s quite the kicking. Reform getting double figures is a sucker punch for the blues as they’ll feel they’ll need to head that off, but swerving right has been their undoing. What a clusterfuck for the blue cunts. Well done Rishi. Proud of you son.

Changed my mind, C4 will drive me mad. Might have to rely on the lovely Sophie Ridge and co.

I’ll have BBC for the exit poll because John Curtice is a brilliant genius. Plus if the blues get thoroughly tonked I’d like to see how upset Laura K gets, the terrible little shill. Then likely C4 for the analysis once that fun is over.

30 minutes 😬

Tbf can’t disagree with any of that. As hypo says I have massive respect for the man for his dedication to his family. But his campaign has been an utter farce; it may have worked overall (we’ll see) but while its given me a bit of a laugh it’s made Lib Dems for me a party that I’d just not consider for a second. The son ‘gag’ is particularly disappointing though.

There’s definitely something therapeutic about taking a stroll down to the polling station and sticking an X in the box. Now just 2.5 hours to go until the exit poll and we can find out just how much of a kicking the Tories have taken. Wine is open with plenty spare just in case.

Happy voting today everybody. For those who are thinking of not voting…….maybe just have a vote anyway? Democracy is a good thing even if you think all the people on the ballot paper aren’t.

The Arthur Wait is absolutely appalling! Ok it gave us Dellhurst Park but the concourses and toilets are a disgrace!

I think tdmick must have borrowed SoG’s ignore feature ☹️

He's had an absolute bumper time of the last 6 weeks.
