What are folks thoughts on the election result in Leigh?
BTW - Labour have held this seat since 1922.

Fantastic! Steptoe and his Trotskyite cult followers can scuttle back into the shadows. Jo Platt didn’t listen to her constituents and rightly paid the price.

One word - Brexit

Warrington South where I live has also turned blue. Why have a policy undermining Brexit and thinking you have a realistic chance of winning the Election ? Bloody clueless !

I am normally Labour through and through but thank God the Dinosaur has gone !!

Mods asleep ?

This is an RL forum

Thanks for that Satan.

BTW - If the Mods wish to remove this thread,could you please put it in a sticky? My apologies for those remoaners affected.

have you complained about the man utd ladies thread?

we all know who the oaf is on this forum are you in his party

I don't...spill.

So we are not playing in blue then.

'Honest Boris' and his Eton chummies took the out of Northern people by calling them 'Workington Man', a step up from Neanderthals in the evolutionary ladder but far, far below 'Eton Man' - and 'Workington Man' still votes them in hahaha. That's like someone being hit with a stick and then asking to be hit even harder.

Boris and his chummies are laughing into their caviar and brandy tonight at how easy it is to fool 'Workington Man'. They planned this election back in 2015 to divert attention away from austerity. Blame the 'bloody immigrants', ally with UKIP and introduce BREXIT. For the next 3 years create chaos and division. Blame the opposition and 'Hey Presto!' - 'Workington Man' comes up Trumps (pardon the pun on Boris' new master). Well at least 'Workington Man' will be able to get voluntary work in the Food Bank growth industry.

On working class men, Honest Boris quoted, "likely to be drunk, criminal, aimless, feckless and hopeless". Thatcher systematically destroyed Leigh and the miners. Churchill called miners 'worms in the earth'. Do you really think this ruling class give a toss about 'Workington Man' They will take great pleasure in erasing 'Workington Man' completely. Well, at least 'Workington Man' has 5 years to contemplate how Honest Boris pi$$ed all over him.

I take it your not a fan of the Tories then

The result says more about Corbyn and co TBH - they have been a disaster and completely mis read the feeling of the British public

I thought Leigh would be switching to playing Union now.

Correct..
