West Lancashire by-election results:
LAB 14,068 CON 5,794 REF 994 LIB 918 GRE 646 OMRLP 210 Official majority changed from 8,336 to... 8,326. Neat. Though of course that does indicate a Labour swing due to lower turnout. Reform also maintaining their percentage from 2019. |

Saw some rumours that Alok Sharma was going to be given a peerage from Boris' resignation honours which would have given me a by-election to vote in. Alas, not the case. (Apparently there aren't going to be any by-elections triggered by the list).
Unfortunately while researching this I've also discovered that the boundary changes for the next general election are putting me in a new seat which is expected to be more Tory leaning than my current one. I fear I've missed my only chance to ever have a non Tory MP that I voted for. Sigh. (although I don't think it's quite a 'safe' seat still) |

Boris Johnson has resigned. There will be a by-election to Uxbridge. Ruddy hell.

Well I guess that's retribution after swiftly rewarding all his cronies apart from Nadine Dorries, who clearly was so pissed off she wasn't there she also went
 Anyway, Celebration time this weekend! |

Great news about Johnston, it was only a matter of time before all his lies and misleading were found out. People like him think they are invisible and can misuse their position of power. However, Sunak should not have been left off the hook as he was part of that shambolic administration.

Anyone else think the rancid binbag of custard will attempt to stand in the Mid Beds by-election?

I find it incredible that Johnstown’s honours list mainly dedicated to his cronies was still allowed to go ahead in light of the Covid committee’s findings. It was clear all along that he misled parliament and yet the government have still endorsed his honours list. I cannot think of any other profession where this would be allowed if someone had been suspended or struck off for wrong doing. Yet again, another example of one rule for M.P.s and another for everyone else.

It's just the evil Tories treating the country like their Etonian land, with us their serfs, as usual. Par for the course for those evil turds.

Excellent. I didn't quite see this coming but with the ramping up of news stories about finally holding politicians accountable for the things they do and say... great news.
QUOTE(Suedehead2 @ Jun 9 2023, 09:50 PM)  Anyone else think the rancid binbag of custard will attempt to stand in the Mid Beds by-election? I did think this was possible but it seems that being back in Parliament will trigger this 'unfair kangaroo court' ruling to go against him*. Plus Sunak isn't that dumb. Far more likely he comes back to some safe seat at a convenient point after the Tories have been flung out of power, much easier to sell oneself as the saviour of Conservative politics in that circumstance. *god his resignation speech is sickening. |

Anyway, Labour for Uxbridge and Lib Dems to pull off a North Shropshire/Tiverton in Mid Beds eh? Ideally they'll be scheduled around the same time again, that worked really well with the Tiverton-Wakefield duo as Labour just won't focus on the unwinnable seat.
