2021 Mayoral and Local Elections

[Soldi]

If Caroline Lucas doesn't want to do it, we need MAGIC MAGID as the next Green leader. An actual political REVOLUTION!

Honestly IMAGINE if MAGID MAGID became PM

Would never happen but OMG

 

[Kate]

You mean PERSONAL FRIEND OF @Beverley Magid Magid?

 

[GinAg (39)]

If Caroline Lucas doesn't want to do it, we need MAGID MAGID as the next Green leader. An actual potential political REVOLUTION, or at the very least somebody to inspire some PASSION!

Yeah why hasn't he been pushed to a more prominent position yet? Surely he's MP material

Omg what?!

No Tories at all?

 

[dmlaw]

No Tories at all?

None. It's only the Manchester City Council, which has never really had Tory areas, and there are plenty in the rest of Greater Manchester, but it's still quite nice.

 

[VoR]

My constituency just declared. Labour held off the Green candidate by fewer than 250 votes.

 

[Tetris-Rock]

Sad to see Nina Bonina Brown flop so hard for the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition.

 

[VoR]

 

[GNL]

Was working on the vote count. I'd like to thank the people of greater Manchester for not making me count a second lot of votes

 

[big ron]

I like Andy, happy about that.

 

[Madíson]

Poor Alec Marvel and Jane Horrocks.

 

[VoR]

Labour also win the Mayor of West England, a rare gain from the Conservatives.

 

[GinAg (39)]

What is WEST ENGLAND please?

 

[VoR]

From Wiki:
For this purpose the West of England is defined as the local authority areas of Bristol, South Gloucestershire, and Bath and North East Somerset.

 

[VoR]

Peterborough and Cambridgeshire mayor also goes Con-Lab

 

[Madíson]

Odd move?

 

[Beverley]

It's ridic

 

[Madíson]

I finally voted for the winning side in a referendum. The Newham Governance Referendum.

It's tearing families apart

 

[VoR]

HMMMMMMM

 

[win_the_game]

Rayner is still Deputy Leader only because she was elected to the role. Starmer can't sack her from that.

 

[dmlaw]

If Starmer's leadership is in a death spiral, she might be fairly happy to be well away from it.

 

[VoR]

Even if he is actually promoting her (as some are now claiming), what an absolute comms disaster.

*sigh* When will we have a Labour team that isn't UTTERLY INCOMPETENT?

 

[GinAg (39)]

London Mayor result apparently IMMINENT.

 

[GinAg (39)]

ALL THE BIG NAMES IN ONE ROOM!

 

[jivafox]

 

[GinAg (39)]

Is that COLIN FROM EASTENDERS?

 

[GinAg (39)]

Sadiq has won

Results on now

 

[GinAg (39)]

Fox got 47k votes!

 

[GinAg (39)]

Binface got 24k

 

[ZenGiraffe]

They're not showing it on news 24!

 

[GinAg (39)]

It's on Sky

 

[Madíson]

Why would they announce the results minutes before the hour?

 

[GinAg (39)]

Sadiq confirmed winner.

GOOD!

 

[Madíson]

BBC leading with Afghanistan news?!

 

[VoR]

Ugh. That's entirely too many for Fox.

 

[Madíson]

Fire the BBC News producers.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

That turn out is ATROCIOUS
