But he’d have to win a seat first, something he’s not managed on his first 37 attempts. I think that will be every labour supporters wet dream too as it will mean no tories in power 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I never really see his name mentioned with the leadership so I guess there’s a reason for that. More chance of Corbyn getting it. He's currently hated by the whole Tory party for his travel diary in the summer bigging up how great the Taliban are. They elected his replacement today for Chair of the Defence Select Committee after his position on that was untenable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story completely passed me by I have to say. Edited October 25, 2023 by Mark Albrighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 You’ve got to look at the number of times I’ve had to attach the epitaph ‘sex pest’ to the name of a tory and just wonder what the hell is going on. We’re being run by the perveratti. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted October 26, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted October 26, 2023 Is there an average amount of by-elections that happen over a government’s tenure? And by tenure, I mean the last time they had a GE, not since being in power. It just feels like there’s been so many, it must be higher than the norm - if there is such a thing. Secondly, and not completely unrelated, is there an at a glance list that shows how many MPs have been suspended/arrested/whatever for nefarious reasons since 2019? And even though it’s on the less serious side of things - relatively speaking - I’m including the tractor porn guy in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current parliament is on 19 with a year left. The only almost full term parliament since 1997 that had significantly less was 2001-2005 which was particularly low at 6. The others are all in the high teens I think the difference maybe that most of the ones this time are producing wild results, whereas a lot in safe seats usually get ignored but right now there’s no such thing as a safe seat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
