    ...5. Greens. Sorry guys, you're lovely but going nowhere.

    They're not! They're a bunch of watermelon commie a'holes that hate everyone.

    The Left's problem is that they no longer represent the working man and woman. They find their nationalism disgisting, and the fact they like football and eat meat. And the eschelons of Labour love the money they get so they must protect the jobs of the Liberal Elite, which in turn have the role of sneering at the workign man adn woman.

    To get Labour right:

    1) Stop being a metropolitan elite - elect a common man like Harold Wilson
    2) Stop thinking that the working man is a racist for wanting to protect his job, his family and his country
    3) Stop thinking that drinking shit lager and going on holiday to Spain to get a red lobster tan is uncouth
    4) Stop hating The Sun newspaper and all it and its readers stand for.
    5) Have efficient policies that put service not self serving, overpaid civil servants like Doctors and Council officers first who pocket more than 100 grand a year.
    6) Stop putting a religion first that is racist and sexist.
    7) Stop treating every white man as a homophobe, racist, sexist Neanderthal.
    8) Stop loving the EU and hating anyone that thinks the EU could be better.
    9) Stop talking more about immigrants at Calais more than people in Stoke.
    10) Stop going on about Trump getting democratically elected. That was the will of the people. Lots of your uncouth, white, lager swilling Neanderthal voters fucking love the scumbag Trump...and Le Pen.
    11) Stop talking about transgender people rather than fat Northern slags. There are more of the latter.

    Only then do the Left have a chance.

    I fear you may be projecting.

    Incidentally, I claim some PB credit on predictions this time - I said that my canvassing suggested that Stoke was seen as a choice of least bad party, and Labour would probably edge it - and I was consistently downbeat about Copeland. Selling UKIP in Copeland on SPIN made me and I hope others who saw my tip a decent sum, which really was free money as they were hardly even trying there.

    Makes up a bit for the hopeless canvass-based predictions in Broxtowe in 2015...
  • In both seats the Greens lost ground. Does this tell us anything about where their vote is going? Cotbyn's Labour or Remain LibDem?

    Copeland: Green Jack Lenox 515 1.7% -1.3

    Stoke: Green Adam Colclough 294 1.4% -2.2

    In 2015 many voters either weren't telling the truth in the run-up, or changed their minds at last minute when they thought about the whole Lab-SNP thing. I'm guessing that this time around people were more forthcoming about what they planned to do.

    Most enjoyable post of the day so far, regardless of whether one agrees with it or not.
  • There's a thread header in the cluster of problems for the Lib Dems that you touch on. Do you mind if I borrow some thoughts out of that and put one together in the next week or two?
    Don't mind at all - please feel free to borrow away.
