Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

In what way do you mean...'Labour does a deal with the SNP'?

Now why the feck would the SNP need to do a deal with Labour...Labour's finished in Scotland and the SNP don't stand in England or Wales the last time i looked..

Vicky,

No, but they could agree to form a loose "coalition" or its "equivalent" and then they could win the next election!

Who in their right mind would vote for the present bunch of incompetents?

.. I can think of a few on here -):

you mean corbyn and co?
spot on!

"Present bunch of incompetents" means your Government you muppet -):

The first lot to suggest they want out of EU , would win the next election , because in 1 or 2 years people are going to find out how bad it really will become .

what ho stan ..... so you think the local elections make labour look competent even in opposition? ....... read on and dream on ....

Labour should be gaining hundreds of seats if history is a guide — but it is not. It is losing seats to the Tories nationally.
Conservatives are shaping up to become the No.2 party after the SNP north of the border. Labour is on course to lose all its seats in Glasgow.
Labour MP John Mann says coming third in Scotland would be "beyond comprehension."
Labour loses seats in areas with large Jewish populations following the Ken Livingstone anti-Semitism spat.
Modest gains for UKIP and the Lib-Dems.
Labour MPs are not blaming leader Jeremy Corbyn (yet) ... even though the results suggest he cannot make gains for Labour nationally.


Local elections are supposed to be the occasion when voters punish the government for its missteps. The average opposition party gains 434 seats in the local vote. Yet Labour is losing seats. That has only happened twice since 1974.


0554 — LABOUR ARE DOWN 28 SEATS AS UKIP GAINS 20 AND THE TORIES ADD 6

Manuel,

Have a few guesses to the reason why the above.

DYOH.

The good thing is that the Conservatives are increasing in Scotland. That may mean less SNP MPs for Westminster. the combined total of Labour and SNP may not be greater than the Conservatives, especially after the boundary changes.

corbyn - he da man ....... long may he stay as leader of the opposition

He won't get one of these

3rd in Scotland.........JEZZA - JEZZA- JEZZA!!!

Tory jocks?.. now there's a laugh

Good to see Zadiq Khan has won the London Mayoral election, in spite of attempts to smear him by Cameron and cronies.

Thicko what the hell is good about that radical scumbag or are you just a sad old git out to annoy people
You HATE Great Britain and everything it once stood for ,you should emigrate to somewhere else .

Well, that is probably more than Cameron could do without Lynton Crosby!

With all the money (bribes) pouring directly or into torrid party lost and found kitties they should have done better.

Perhaps, they have Dumbo working for them.

What a laugh that must be.

Here you are Fred everything you despise ,a bit like showing a cross to dracula.



How about a lovely country village that's not yet ruined .



I bet you HATE all the above.

Fred's idea of utopia ..

Freda, Labour did well in Wales. Surprised you don't move back there you would be in your element. A small out lay on a pair of wellies to take with you, come in handy at the monthly sheep shagging club. :0)

What do you feel like about a woman of German descent married to a Greek as you sovereign?

You must go weak at your knees when you curtsy to her.
