This is actually a rare election where a Sankey diagram is helpful and not just beautiful, I think.

Are these victory margins getting into “actually Paul Scully would have lost too, just less embarrassingly” territory?

Rather glad your “she could do it, you know” (and, yes, I know that had so many caveats applied that it was buckling under its own weight) is turning out to be “she hasn’t got a hope in hell of doing it, you know”.

Whatever someone’s politics, I’d hope they’d want at least basic competence.

didn’t leonie cooper use to write for the NME??

In a board room in Tufton Street a man in a henley just wrote "Select a less shit candidate" on a whiteboard.

bexleylister.bsky.social•312 days ago

Maybe. But a less shit candidate translates to someone who holds views not in line with Tufton Street.

basically with the removal of a fair voting system thousands made their own decision to ensure Sadiq is their first choice to stop Hall

and that GTTO motto is why the tories imho may struggle to break 100 in a GE
