So the #Tories are in the lead for the next #GeneralElection ?
What's wrong with people?
It's like a merry-go-round of shitness. Either humans are too stupid to ever learn from their mistakes, or they're entirely duped and control by corporate owned news outlets!
Come on, people. A new leader doesn't make the party different. Look beyond the flimsy veneer of PR and look at things with a little more complexity FFS.
#Skwawkbox | Petition for new #GeneralElection because of #Labour dishonesty passes 1m signatures
Yeah ... I'd sign this ... but who else is there to vote for? Another general election and we'd just end up with more of the same.
"The petition ... was started four days ago and took three days to pass 100,000 signatures ... But since yesterday it has taken off, quickly passed a million signatures and continues to accelerate."
If you're voting in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, and you have no idea how to vote on everything else on the ballot but you're a Democrat or an independent voter who historically votes Democrat:
It was a pain in the ass and hugely expensive to send (by courier) but I have just mailed my Federal Write-In Absentee Ballot. It is expected to arrive October 24th. This is a reminder to all US citizens abroad that *you are running out of time to vote* https://www.fvap.gov

"A former independent MP, who was permanently expelled from the #Conservative Party after comparing the use of #Covid jabs to the #Holocaust" claims he lost due to vote rigging.
Amanda Hack (new Labour MP): “The explanation for absence of voting papers with a cross against Andrew’s name is simple. People didn’t vote for him."
#ChrisPhilp is on #BBCLauraK saying the #Rwanda scheme would have been an effective detterrent, but unfortunately, the first flight was scheduled for three weeks after the #GeneralElection is an amusing piece of deception.
Surely, even a pillock like Philp knows the GE was called on that date was because lawyers were lined up to prevent those take offs and Sunak did not want to end his ministry with another failure chalked up against him.

The Electoral Reform Society (ERS) looks at the results of the recent UK general election and highlights four outcomes. It was the most disproportional GE result in history, with only 15% of MPs elected with more than half the votes in their constituency. The system of voting needs serious reform.

“If the #candidate is not a candidate in the #generalelection, all #contributions made for the #generalelection shall be either #returned or #refunded to the #contributors or #redesignated …, or #reattributed …, as #appropriate”
— The donations were properly redesignated to help elect the new Democratic Nominee as appropriate.
I realise now why there was so much apathy for our most recent #GeneralElection
There was no political analysis from #JohnLydon
I don't remember him giving his hot take, do you?
“Lee Anderson: I was offered ‘a lot of money’ to join Reform UK
Tory deputy chairman was secretly taped claiming that the party Farage built is tapping up MPs amid accusations of £430,000 ‘bribes’ to defect
November 26 2023, The Sunday Times”
…So he joined

Well this is interesting.
#ReformParty apparently fielded fake candidates in the #GeneralElection
But these people knew the polls and Refrom actually split the right wing vote. So was Reform trying to win the seats, or were they actually trying to help #Labour win seats? Because surely they knew how well they were polling in those areas.
