Thread 54 Sunak: On His Majesty's Secret Curtice., Polling Night Special

[RishisLeavingDo]

It's time

It's I think the BBC over estimating tactical voting against SNP. We'll see. Kirsty Wark wasn't convinced, I thought.

If Harriet Harman is made a life peer, she'll be a Baroness with a seat in the HoL.

A Dame is the female equivalent of a knighthood, i.e. a kind of courtesy title. Knights and Dames can be members of the HoC, whereas peers cannot.

NB: Is 'Sir' JRM standing again? Is his seat 'safe'?

I know. And she had the foresight to have a brolly handy. Top flight trolling there.

I can't believe it either.

4.30am, may single my bedtime.

I'm going to bury my head like the Tories and say I think it's bollocks and Reform will only get 9 seats with LDs will nabbing the rest.

Sevenoaks will be where I watch as the disenfranchised Tories there are either LD or Reform from what I can see. Anecdotally it's women LD and men Reform, but that's pretty standard nationwide, I am guessing.

Anyway, I am attempting to sleep.

Night night for now.

Thanks for answering that

I forgot NI got to vote. You wouldn't think it as the coverage of them has been non-existent

Hapus with that prediction as well!

@Grantshappsotherusrnames - iirc (from discussions a long time ago ) @derxa lives somewhere in in the Borders.

So no, not non-dom.

If some Conservatives have gone to Reform, then the Conservatives have a problem.

If they move towards Reform, then they may well lose Conservatives who would never vote Reform.

Bit of an issue for them

Why are you watching them? 😩

Quite likely that 13 Reform MPs will just fight amongst themselves "no I’m more racist than you!"

GB News predicting a landslide for the Tories...

Well
Could have been worse!

Ha!

Just seen a clip of Rishi & his wife voting in Yorkshire. Akshata looked great, she was wearing a lovely dress.

HH confirmed earlier on C4 she will be Baroness H, working hard to reform HoL.

@PerfectYear321 I forgot NI got to vote. You wouldn't think it as the coverage of them has been non-existent

Even ds, who works in Public Affairs, admitted tonight that he'd forgotten about NI, when I mentioned that the I thought the DUP would be hammered.

I'm reckoning that so called 'shy Tories' have become emboldened Reformies.

Can't get c4 😭 Laura K talking over everyone is v annoying but loving Naga's hair. Will be waiting for the first count to come in and off to bed for an early start 😊

10 minutes for first result

Yes. They never had a right alternative before. Now they do

I hope the Duppers lose at least 3 seats.
