All these areas were still voting in large numbers the Brexit Party last time round, 3 years after Brexit was done. I’m not overly surprised or concerned by them. And Barnsley is just one big northern facepalm.
Plus, fuck it. The Tories are out.

At the end of the day whether any fellow Labour voters like it or not, Labour have won by taking Conservative voters. There is clearly a large percentage of racists who have gone to Reform. But that huge upsurge in Labour voters is IMO likely to be people who are more traditionally conservative, who can now vote Labour because they don’t recognise their own party and because Labour have lurched back rightwards to the centre. If the tories target the algae who vote Reform and don’t try to win back those more properly conservative voters who have gone Labour, yep they will win some numbers back but those Reform numbers do not add up to the Labour vote. At all.
Sorry for the wittering. It’s just absolutely fucking me off that the result of this is them wanting to go more racist/transphobic/homophobic/whatever ism. It’s a race to the bottom and a race to hell and I’ve genuinely seen people lose their humanity over the last 20 years.

Regardless of Nadine the channel 4 coverage is really good.

I would imagine that Reform's share will be dropping outside of Leave areas. This. Hopefully.

Who’s this blue-tied teat?
Edit: I meant “twat”, but “teat” will do.

I’m unsure why all the horrible LOSERS are being given such a void here.

Ooooh Channel 4 has Hannah Fry, who’s magnificence almost cancels out the monstrous form of Dorries.

Dorries pretending Boris texts her is undoing any good Fry being on has done

It’s only when you see him next to a regular adult that you realise just how diddy Dishy Rishi is (Apologies to all my short kings in here).

I was just going WTF is that Hannah Fry?
Just got home from the pub. Got them to put the TV on for the exit poll and all the Labour people huddled round and enjoyed it, it was genuinely a pleasure. Popped outside for a victory cigarette and someone was setting off fireworks.
Also some of the people were Corbyn voters (not activists) and we all tacitly agreed to not discuss Islington North but just all join in enjoying the Tories being fucked. Was a genuinely nice community moment.
Is Nadine Dorries on this as a neutral? As Kwartang is there...
