For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.80% of the public didn't vote Labour so it's democracy that was crushed, but certainly the Tories deserved to lose power. But can they actually make things better? Time will tell. It's odd though that most of their manifesto plans were the same as the Tory manifesto and were more right wing than Lib Dems, SNP, Greens. So no change to tax thresholds or major investment in public services, no plans to reverse Brexit- and no ideas on stopping the dinghies. So will anything change
Not really gulliver- the Labour vote was very low for a winning party, less than Corbyn got, so it only needs a few Reform and Liberals to go back to the Cons, and it could be close next time. But let's hope Labour do such a great job with the economy and stopping the boats that they will sail to victory again in 2029- unlike you I'm not colour blind and don't mind who's in power as long as they do a good job.
Gulliver,
You are turning into TTT.
He foolishly thought Boris would win a least two more elections after the 2019 Tory landslide. He tried to get us to gamble with him on the next election (that stopped after Truss crashed ehe economy). But the 80 majority in 2019 was based on a lot of wafer thin majorities in Labour's former red wall.
Labour have a majority of 172. You might think that will keep them in power for at least another term, but some unique things happened at this election which won't be repeated in 2029.
We should put the Labour Government's life expectancy at 5 years. What happens after that depends on if they deliver or not.
I did offer to take a bet on Boris winning, shame no one had the guts to back their own opinion. I thought that Boris would win the election if he stayed on. The problem was that multiple crises just turned the whole show into a firefighting exercise so we never really got the government that was elected in 2019. The party foolishly in my opinion got rid of Boris for no good reason. The detractors all go on about porkies yet when challenged they cannot come up with a single example.
