Well if it is like this forum with the same few posters going on and on about the evil Tories for years now. Justifying and denying every criticism of Labour. If this is a small loud minority may be there will be surprises tomorrow. I do not know anyone voting Labour. However, yes I do live in a bubble. Personally I will vote and turn off the background noise. Wherever will be will be while I pack and go.

If this doesn't happen now I am going to be sorely disappointed and will ask for a recount.

Agreed!

It is pissing down here. Bloody Starmer turned the rain on, I swear.

I've been shocked and horrified by the things I've learned on this thread, but I mean, if he's jumped the gun and started ordering the weather before he's even won the election, that is just the outside of enough.

I hear that nice Nigel would arrange sunny days every weekend, not only in Clacton, but in every coastal town. There's a pledge one can get behind!

InMySpareTime · 03/07/2024 09:19

Keir Starmer can take or leave marmite.
He can eat one Pringle.
He opens packets of crisps by the back seam when it's not even a party.

That's it. That's my deal breaker. I'm voting for Nigel because I hear he always decants his crisps into a nibble bowl.

Keir Starmer never takes the bins out.

Sorry, crisp roulette is my least favourite party game. I couldn't vote Reform now I know that.

Tories are getting very tetchy now. Must be the thought of those eyes on No 10’s door.

I heard he does sometimes, but he puts bin bags out the night before and they get torn open by seagulls.

Are you off on holiday? I hope you get some sun 🌞.

Sir Kier Starmageddon got a yappy poodle cross during lockdown and it makes his house smell (even if he says it doesn't).

Churchview · 03/07/2024 10:52

Keir Starmer was DistinguishedSocialCommentator. FACT!!!!

What happened to DSC? I thought they were "resigning" from MN after the Tories lost, not before.

I heard he’s got 7 bins.

HarrietPierce · 03/07/2024 11:17

Every night he takes his boombox out into the street and plays Black Sabbath until 3 am.

TimeForRishiByeByes · 03/07/2024 11:45

He doesn't just wear his crocs in the garden.

Bet he wears socks and has jibbitz on them

He thinks "live, laugh, love" is a motto suitable for home decor, and will paint the motto all over the gold wallpaper in no 10 as soon as he moves in.
