It does seem to be a local council admin cluster feck ... Scale I'm not sure of though



In that video they claim up to 75% (of 3million) which would be 2.25 million yet they say hundreds have complained... And 999 people would be less than 0.04%

Which is a pretty wide variance ... I guess the scale will determine if it's a non story or something of significance but I suspect in will get lost in the impending brexit party / rubbish labour & conservative results that will drag out till I think Sunday when the results are officially announced
 
Sat down in car to drive to poll station, battery flat. Walk back into house, put on running gear (2nd time today), run to poll station which took 20mins, voted and ran back. Now i'm fecking starving! Goddamn car.

Voted Lib Dem.

Was very tempted not to vote after the car battery, but saw the whole #deniedmyvote shit and got determined.
 
Voted Greens in the end. Was 50:50 with them or Lib Dems. I was in one of my offices today (7 people) which was all Labour in 2017 and was all Green today, which I found interesting.

Voted Lib Dem, again. Feel a bit guilty at not looking into the Greens a bit more, but when I did some years ago they appeared to be batshit mental. Although some of their ideas then might seem a bit more rational now after all. Oh well, maybe next time.

Go and wash yourself.
 
Inevitable but concerning that Brexit has turned into the major point for elections. There is so much more that needs resolving in this country.

Brexit should be much lower on the agenda. Homelessness, poverty, NHS, Education (privatised academies), police cuts, fire brigade cuts, social care is crumbling. Yet every fecker seems to be voting on Brexit grounds only.
 
Voted green. Have a feeling they’re going to do well in Bristol this election. In fact I think they’re going to do well country wide. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s close between them and the Tories.

Wouldn't be surprised to see them do better than the conservatives
Brexit, libs, labour, greens, conservative.
SNP and plaid to do well regionally as well
 


Theresa May is expected to announce the date of her departure from Downing Street on Friday, senior cabinet ministers have told the BBC.

Sources say they expect the PM to give a timetable for her successor to be chosen, with 10 June likely to be the start of the official leadership race.

Shameless twit. And that's just me.

Yer man in green trousers poking a flag in Femi's face calling him a traitor is Dr Niall McCrae a senior lecturer in mental health at KCL.

Considering the bed wetting about throwing milkshakes, I daresay had the roles been reversed and a left wing academic had been caught hurling abuse at a prominent Brexit supporting journalist we'd have had wall to wall coverage and calls to overhaul academia...

Wow. That’s kind of shocking. Although I shouldn’t be too surprised. I lurk on a Uk doctors only message board and there’s a bunch of super right wing Brexiteer toss-pots on there. Turns out having a brain doesn’t preclude anyone from being an unpleasant arsehole
 
Labour can feck off for being so useless.

Had to vote Lib Dem. Doubt it'll matter in the slightest but eh, that's voting right?
 
Polls seem to be largely in agreement regarding Brexit party winning big, Tories getting crushed and Greens doing respectably, big divergence seems to be on the Lib Dem/Labour split. Modelling turnout must be a nightmare these days. Both extremes seem plausible to me.

based on this thread, labour sshould be at zero.

Fair enough, I can't remember the finer points, but obviously no-one expected it to be that bad.


Ditto. Was them or greens.

No one expected her to lose her majority, right enough, and I certainly didn't - but a few prominent pollsters did point out that there was an inherent risk to calling the vote in that even a comfortable victory had the potential to jeopardise the Tories' majority depending on how it fell. They'd gotten a majority under Cameron with a 6-7 point lead but even then it had been a narrow one.

Can't believe you've almost gone full Green - give it a year or two and you'll be making the Corbyn fans here look like Thatcher.:lol:

On the other hand, my parents, both staunch remainers and Corbyn-skeptics, voted Labour. If the electorate skews older without a big influx of new remainers, could quite conceivably see Labour's vote hold up above 20%.

long live older voters

The original point was about who's best placed to make decisions.

Older people have a lot of life experience youngsters lack, but that doesn't necessarily mean they know more about what's best for the country politically - an 85-year-old for example probably knows feck all about government plans for the tech sector. Which is fair enough, because they're retired, and don't need to worry about that sort of stuff anymore. But the idea older people are automatically more informed than younger generations is a myth.

Although anyone wanting to deny older people the vote is equally suspect.

Older people also have a huge vested interest in the status quo while the young don’t.
 
Ended up voting Green, the 1st time i've ever voted against Labour. It was a toss up between them and the Lib Dems but the coalition still leaves a bad taste.

Disgraceful. Wonder if anything will happen?

Let's not kid ourselves. It was the tories responsible for this knowing few Europeans will vote tory, and it's the tories responsibility to make anything happen.

It just underlines the utter hypocrisy every time the word democracy leaves their mouths.
