Looks like this date is to be announced. I’ll be away unfortunately but let's hope this is true.

If I don't get to work at the count, I'll see if the local will do a lock-in with a big screen TV

Yes that would be fab! I’m currently organising an election party at mine and booking the Friday off 😅

That sounds like a good plan.

I'm loving the guy chanting "Tories Out" in the background on BBC. They're their best to ignore him but I don't think they're managing very well Grin

If your away you can do a postal vote

No date had been announced yet has it?!

Thanks for this, we don’t actually go away until the week after and dh and I already have postal votes but it’s given me the kick up the bum to remind ds to register for postal. Will sort it tonight when he’s home from work.

I hope it is before our holiday though, I do like watching the results announced through the night - crikey just realised how boring I sound!

You are not at all boring @Georgieporgie29 !
It's been a long time coming and so many dearly hoping for change.

The BBC have just had a banner in the coverage saying it's 4th July.

GrandTheftWalrus · 22/05/2024 17:10

I'm in Scotland so have the delights of the snp. However I'm sure a general election can get rid of them as well?

I'm just hoping the tories are fucked out as they've ruined everything.

Will he stop waffling on pretending to be a saviour and get to the good part

I mean it's all over the news anyway 🤷‍♂️

DramaLlamaBangBang · 22/05/2024 17:16

Bloody he'll he's really dragging it out isn't he? I wish that idiot in the background would shut up. Its really irritating.

GrandTheftWalrus · 22/05/2024 17:17

He's just said 4th July about 20 secs ago.

Tracker1234 · 22/05/2024 17:17

Who is that twat in the background playing music.

RDMPrules · 22/05/2024 17:17

Oh DD will be annoyed, turns 18 a few days later and was hoping to vote for the first time.

Exactly.

Love how someone is now blasting out "Things can only get better" Grin

Tracker1234 · 22/05/2024 17:17

Why cant the police step in!

I'm loving it Grin

ny20005 · 22/05/2024 17:18

I love that he's pretending the music in the background isn't there Grin

Tracker1234 · 22/05/2024 17:18

I think its truly pathetic.

DramaLlamaBangBang · 22/05/2024 17:19

I'm on bloody holiday! Luckily I have a postal vote.
