Rumours that Khan might have lost London.
This aged well.
Next thing you know you'll be reading the BBC and making informed, rational choices. Gone to the dogs, etc...
If so, that's a real loss as Andy Street has been excellent. He should have run as an independent this time.
My left leaning wife has taken quite an interest in Richard Parker, and is less than impressed. The letter we received appeared to have been written by a 16 year old fantasist.

I wonder if Sunak and the Tories have factored in that the longer they leave it to call a GE the more likely it is that were likely to see some sort of longer lasting ceasefire in Gaza which will likely reduce the Muslim protest vote against Labour.
There was a piece on Sky saying the most likely outcome was a labour minority govt, seems less likely than an outright majority to me but if it is going to be that close I think issues like that will make a bigger difference than him bleating on about lower inflation and a small reduction in IRs.

Be a shame if Andy Street has lost, he has been good for the Midlands. Officially it's not been called yet though. If Labour have won it'll be super tight.
I agree, but he’s gone. A victim of the fallout from a disastrous Tory administration, going back to whenever but he is a loss in my view. Someone did an analysis on the Muslim vote back in November or whenever the front bench resignations were and they came to the conclusion that it would be single digits of parliamentary seats at risk because most Muslims live in very safe Labour seats and many also have non-Muslim Labour voters.

Yep. The muslim vote is not powerful enough to affect any G.E. and it won't affect labour, other than a few candidates in Muslim majority seats. Not all Muslims vote the same and I'm not sure why people are making a fuss about it. thetapeworm said:

Considering every poll of the last year has shown Labour consistently between 20-25% ahead in the polls, i would say this is complete and utter bThere was a piece on Sky saying the most likely outcome was a labour minority govt, seems less likely than an outright majority to me but if it is going to be that close I think issues like that will make a bigger difference than him bleating on about lower inflation and a small reduction in IRs.

Lets hope so. After the last 14 years of them ruining the Country they deserve nothing else. In any sensible Country it would be the end of them, and rightly so.ks.The tories are heading for oblivion.

Anyways
Much as I think Johnson is not fit for office I suspect if he comes into the ‘game’ all bets may be off.

The Sky thing was highly misleading as they merely extrapolated local election results to GE, when voting is very different in local elections. Try voting for the "residents association" come GE time. Labour are on course for a very large majority.
