So much for the Tories sweeping Wales. I was there last week and didn't see a single Tory placard on show from the Dyfi to Prestatyn. It wasn't until I crossed the border into Cheshire that the vermin became evident.
Re: Thursday 8th June 2017
Good, we had the angry old white men here who wanted to nuke the fuck out of the world, and hated the IRA, and suddenly thought voting TOry was clever, despite losing everything in the strike. I ended up calling someone Ive known for 30+ years a scab to his face.tinyclanger2 wrote:Labour holds Llanelli with 1.4% swing from Tories

Can we just be clear. Given the "poll surge" is down to Corbyn, presumably the result on Thursday will be down to him as well.

Boris Johnson, the foreign secretary and now clear favourite to become next Conservative leader, has arrived at his count in Uxbridge and South Ruislip.
Johnson speeches are not always noted for their accuracy, but his face is incapable of telling a lie.
