      This is really bad for the Tories, the heavy vote splitting between Labour and the Lib Dems happened, and they still lost what used to be a safe seat.

        One of their safest seats in the country. I suspect Nadine’s personal popularity in the area really didn’t help, gives me hope Truss could lose an even safer seat at the GE.

          I think she’d like that. Frees her up to rake in the money on the conference speaking circuit and play Sim Economy.

    It’s a win. Unfortunately nearly 13 thousand people still think the tories are the better choice.

      As the wonderful Supertanskii said on Instagram recently, don’t make fun of the Tory voters but ask them why think the Tories are still a good idea after 13 years and seeing the state of the country now.
