Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- The Labour Party is set to secure a staggering 212-seat majority on Thursday, according to the final MRP YouGov poll of the election campaign.
That would mean Sir Keir Starmer would have the biggest majority for any single party since 1832.
The poll also suggests that 16 of the Cabinet's 26 ministers could lose their seats, including Jeremy Hunt.

Fair play to Rishi Sunak, went from private school to collapsing the Tory party, generally sound geezer as well.
its going to be hilarious seeing all the middle aged people in the comment section not know what this is a reference to 😂
And to think he never had sky tv too
Let’s be honest rishi sunak isn’t an ideal prime minister but he isn’t the reason of the collapse of the Conservative Party
No fan of Sunak. However, Bullshitter Boris handed his successor a poisioned chalice.
@@AliAdeel777 Boris Johnson sank the Tory party faster than the Titanic, than Liz truss just pulled the plug. Rishi sunak wasn't the right man to fill in all the holes.

Bots mate, Social media comments mean nothing.
Because they are bots or burner accounts
That's because Reform is such an amateurish party that all they've got to campaign with is social media. They haven't got an army of volunteers working the streets like serious political parties.
They're competing with the Tories for the lunatic fringe vote so they're splitting the right wing vote and making things even easier for Labour.

So last time there was a majority this big it was won by a cup of tea. ☕

Oh how very british! In fact, the legend has it, the majority was so big the voting was stopped at 5pm, because nobody would bother anymore!
pretty sure he was a giant walking cup with a face, like a victorian kool aid guy
1832. Any British citizen should know the significance of that year in our political history.
Incidentally the tea blend was indeed named after Charles Grey, although it not until decades later, and nobody knows why! It might actually have been meant as an insult since bergamot infused tea was seen as a form of adulteration!

It will. In hungary a brand new party was estimated around 20% ended up with almost 30%.
Big time
I'm expecting a shock.
Reform is the BNP in thin disguise. Racists are damned.
All I can is that Starmer better make GOOD USE of this Majority... To turn this country around! Immigration is a contentious issue... Even though I am on the Left... But for me, the MAIN issues are all these HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL and EXPENSIVE foreign policy issues: Ukraine... Gaza... And gawd knows what else!!!
If he can turn his attention BACK to the citizens of THIS country... Then that will negate some of this growing sense of Xenophobia that's sweeping through Europe... And perhaps, bring some cool heads to the table, in order to get us out of these foreign policy crises!
BUT... If he goes down the Same-old... Same-old route... Then he's finished!!! This country cannot stand much more!!! BOTH on the Left AND the Right!!! We need a Sea Change!!! Not more pandering to Globalist Elites!!! He NEEDS to put this country FIRST!!! Otherwise, this country WILL tear itself apart!!!
I mean how the f*ck can one go off to "save the world" if they cannot even save their own country men and women??? He NEEDS to priorities and refocus efforts AWAY from Imperialistic Ambitions!!!
@marthasheilds2446 Perhaps... But I'm smart enough... As well as MANY others... To join the dots!
Our foreign policy choices has a DIRECT effect on immigration! If Starmer refocuses efforts back to THIS country... Whilst simultaneously opting for a more "calmer" approach to foreign policy... I.e. less bombs and blood money... And more diplomacy and intelligence... Then such a dual strategy should lessen the understandable xenophobic tendencies in this country!
Not only do WE need help! But we also need a FAR MORE STABLE world! Which will ease the problems of immigration!
Starmer is a WEF puppet same as Sunak

YouGov significantly overestimated the Lib Dem seats, and they did not win.
SNP: Projected 48, Actual 56 (Difference: -8)

2017 UK General Election:

SNP: Projected 41, Actual 48 (Difference: -7)

If the poll is even 50% in error (which is highly unlikely) Labour will still trounce the Tories with over 100 seats. That's more than BoJo managed during his so-called landslide. The Tories will live to fight another day, but it'll be a long time coming...
even if they are overestimating labour the tories will still only get say 130 -150
