For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Gulliver 16.09 In case you haven't noticed many Labour MP's were elected with very small majorities. For example where I live the Labour man got in with a majority of 39, and is already causing disappointment with the voters as he doesn't answer anybody's enquiries, either by letter or email. If there was to be a by election tommorow that 39 majority would soon disappear. The way that Labour are behaving, especially Reeves, I am sure there are many Labour MP's in a similiar position.
"I should have also added that only 20% of voters, voted for the Labour Party. The other 80% were opposed to having them in Government. "
I don't get involved in gulliver's thread as a general rule, but just a point of order. You can't say that, gramps.
Whilst we know that only 20% of those registered to vote voted Labour, we don't know whether the remaining 80% were all opposed to having them in government. We only know that half of the remainder (40%) were opposed to a Labour government (because they voted for somebody else). The other 40% did not vote at all and you can draw no conclusions about their preferred government.
Gramps 85. At the end of the day although it hurts you to see a Labour Govt in Power .It actually delights me to see the working class taxpayers money not being given to the likes of Boris to spend on leg overs or being trousered by Tory MPs .Even if the Doctors NHS staff and the workers are being looked after by Sir Keir.
Dame Priti Patel ..remember her...says it is staggering that the new Labour Govt are even considering relaxing FOM with The EU......... Whoo hoo ..get her.
if it good for the economy, good for UK plc, and good for the young people then why should the far-right of the UK object ? we arent threatening to foorce them into boats and make them wear rubber moustaches
As I have said before on AB, the pattern is the same. Lots of Tory rule and then a shortage of fresh blood and ideas. In comes Labour. Total car crash, mega regrets from the Country and back to a long Tory encampment. That is the pattern. Gully is right to think a massive majority can achieve much, but to win again thus making ten years is a total no no. The grey voter will see to that.
Corby, your link isn't working. I'll have a go.
