But yeah, I guess the same could equally be said about the throbbers that continue to vote for the 'main two' who themselves have succeeded in putting the UK down the toilet. I think the real reason is the main 3 parties just aren’t racist enough for some. The Tories are very racist but failing to kick the illegals out is costing them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 1 hour ago, bickster said: Losing Tamworth, the home of modern Conservatism will be hugely symbolic and will hurt more than the stats. The seat of Robert Peel and the place he wrote the Tamworth Manifesto, which is widely regarded as the basis of modern conservatism to this day Losing Mid-Beds will genuinely send shockwaves through the party, the sort that will send an awful lot of MPs over the edge and announce they are standing down. It will be down to the LibDems if Labour lose Mid-Beds. Labour will win Tamworth with a degree of comfort(a few thousand) Robert Peel's smile was like a silver plate on a coffin apparently. Sounds familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine mate, I mean I don't have any particular sway towards any of them personally as I think they're all full of bollocks. I only watch PMQ's on odd occasions too (when I'm free) just for the fact it's just mostly panto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re throbbers for voting for Reform 50.1% Throbbers by my definition in Tamworth. (Tory+ Reform + UKIP + Britain First) Labour won because the minor throbby parties split the vote, the other three got 9.4% between them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
