the one with the 2nd worst labour result in 36 years (since foot in 1983...)

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

Apologies if posted already. But what the actual feck is going on with aging Tory men and ludicrous hair? This is a new thing, right? Why is it happening?!
So, does this mean hard brexit?
In terms of seats Labour had worse results in 1983, 1987, 2010 and 2015. In terms of vote share Labour had worse results in 1983, 1987, 1992, 2005, 2010 and 2015. So in terms of seats it was average, both the fifth worst and the fifth best election for Labour in 36 years. In terms of vote share it was the third best.
I also think Labour is underperforming but come on.
Hopefully if some right-wing nut job who wants No Deal becomes PM then some Tory MPs would see sanity and back a no confidence attempt and trigger a GE. Then the Tories campaign on a No Deal manifesto and Labour on their make-believe deal.
Cameron is just pleased that he will no longer be considered the worst British PM since Lord North.
Yes, almost certainly.
If a GE is called, could the Brexit Party not do well using this current momentum and by promising to go full throttle on a hard Brexit? If these Tory / Labour voters have flocked to the Brexit Party for European Elections, would they not just vote for them again if they stick to their tune in a GE rather than go back to the parties that they're clearly fed up with and feel betrayed by?
This was BS. Got his mate to do it.
You're probably not far wrong.
The rest of Parliament also regretting not taking the only possible withdrawal agreement
One thing to keep in mind is the Tories already have a wafer-thin majority. If someone comes in and insists on No Deal, which most in the Commons already rejected, a couple more resignations completely screws them over.
The irony will be lost on brexiteers
I’m sure that there’s a GoT angle to all of this
Who asked for this cnut's opinion?
Good question.
It is perfectly obvious that he has been positioning himself as we have seen virtually nothing of him.
He knows that as soon as he opens his mouth he will shoot himself in both feet so he has kept it tightly shut.
Chancer is all he is.
My old man was a Thatcherite, despite her decimating the north.
I cant help feeling that Brexiters being labeled '80 year old idiots from the north' all over the internet, has done nothing but Unite them and made them determined to vote for one party, well done internet warriors.
At the same time remainers cannot agree on a single party to unite them and they will spread their votes across multiple parties, basically wasting their vote.

With Johnson we will have a numpty that matches the numpty here.
Can't see many 80 year olds from the north surfing the internet, getting outraged by Remainers .
Probably because they are busy writing comments on the mail online section outraging remainers?
certainly internet use amongst the elderly has increased a lot in recent stats

So there is more 65-74 year olds.
I guess Neville Chamberlain says hi.
Was he a Nazi?
I fear we are about to go from just incompetent to complete bafoonary.
Great corbyn or Boris clowns to the left and jokers to the right now where do I vote
A little old man who for some unknown reason is the youngsters' favourite and keeps hoping for a general election for his seventieth birthday.
Another of life's mysteries.
Another of life's mysteries.
Are you talking about Bernie Sanders?
Could be but he's even older.
What is even the point of polling
Amazing birthday present for me but the fact that Boris is favourite is so depressing. The public is so f*cking dumb. He’s still somehow living off his lovable buffoon persona despite being a snide cnut for years now.
You made the right decision moving, Sol.
Turnout figures so far show more remain areas have had a turnout boost, leave ones a drop.
Looks like Boris is trying to woo the hard Brexiteers with talk of leaving with or without a deal. I do wonder though if Brexit party doing well in the EU election has made the hard right even cockier: is there really a majority for a hard Brexit, either in the HoC or the country in general?
Moving back end of this year!
We don't want you back.
Country - don't think so. Commons - question is more whether there's a majority to stop it. Has been a very slight one so far, but ones that's reliant on some Tories who could easily switch.
