  • By any measure it's been a grim day for the Conservatives - they lost the by-election for an MP in Blackpool South thanks to a massive swing to Labour, they're on track to lose around half of the local election council seats they contested and their projected national vote share is down to a dismal 25%.
    With so many losses, Rishi Sunak has described the night as 'disappointing'. But he’s sure voters will stick with the Tories come the general election.

Or the years of brutal oppression of eight million Muslims and Arabs by ISIS. Or the nearly 70 thousand political prisoners in Egypt alone. Or the fate of the Kurds denied a their own state by the Turks and the Arabs. Or the fate of a million Muslim refugees being expelled from Pakistan. Or if anyone cared about the tens of thousands of Palestinians expelled by Kuwait. Or if they asked why Palestinians are still in 'refugee camps' two generations after their grandparents and great parents fled Palestine. Of if they had demanded Gaza and the West Bank be given independence when they were part of Egypt and Jordan. But in fact you hear next to nothing about any of these. Because the perpetrators of the crimes are other Muslims and/or Arabs and there is a golden rule that nobody criticises the Ummah. They are absolutely passionate about Palestine because the enemies are Jews. Little Syrian kids were murdered by other Syrians so nobody cared.
      To be clear, I am not saying it is wrong to care about Palestinian children being murdered in Gaza. I am saying I don't believe your motives for claiming to care. I think you hate the Jews more than you love the Palestinians.

      Completely agree with you on this. Greens and LibDems have a much larger share of votes both in local and general elections. Yet Richard Tice and his party are still given a comparatively inflated amount of broadcast coverage in recent months.
      Sure, if they did manage to secure seats in the upcoming elections, they'll have earned the right to media attention. But currently, they are being given a platform without properly being challenged on their policies, funding strategies or the party's official governance structure.
      I truly hope that their future will be short lived and inconsequential.

      How do you know this?
      It's not as if ANY of the shadow cabinet has had a sniff of power for 14 years, and some have never been in government.

      An even bigger majority didn't vote Conservative, LibDem, Independent, RA, Workers Party or Reform. Of these "non-majority" parties, Labour won by far and away the greater number of votes. As to those who didn't bother voting... tough!

    I’m not sure these results really matter at this stage. The Tories will undoubtedly aim to cling on as long as possible because every additional week in power means significantly more public (tax payer) money can be funnelled into the private sector.
