  1. Who is the next Tory Leader? The next LibDem leader? Can you say with 100% certainty? Using the word democratic in a sentence that expects there to be a coronation for the next leader is hilariously silly
  2. Yep, one TikTok account speaks for an entire nation
  3. The last full term parliament 2010-2015 had 21 by-elections. The current parliament is on 19 with a year left. The only almost full term parliament since 1997 that had significantly less was 2001-2005 which was particularly low at 6. The others are all in the high teens I think the difference maybe that most of the ones this time are producing wild results, whereas a lot in safe seats usually get ignored but right now there’s no such thing as a safe seat.
  4. Past practice has been to keep the whip until guilty and instruct not to visit the parliamentary estate
  5. Individual parties rules are irrelevant in a discussion about the electoral system in the UK in general. It's theoretically possible for a party to gain power that doesn't elect it's leader from the membership, in fact the Tory Party was such a party until 2018 when they changed their rules. And even then the membership only gets a vote on the final two
  6. Maybe but I also think in 6 months time it'll be an entirely different story Kneejerk polls like this rarely have the effect they suggest in the aftermath of an event.
  7. The only place where it would be a slight concern is Scotland I think Similarly on a more general politics but related issue, what must literal Nazis be doing to themselves right now, their internal monologue must be tearing themselves to bits over which side to support.
  8. It's also a complete nothing burger if you look at where those allegiances transfer to
  9. Which of the other actors in terms of this topic have?
  10. He had commitment to that song
  11. It's like Xmas decorations, people don't throw them away, they keep them and ad to the collection the following year
  12. I saw them at £1:30 the other day, never anywhere near £8
  13. Look man, in my opinion none of your posts are balanced. They are blinkered, prejudiced and one sided. Your posts in this topic are as unbalanced and biased as the other fellas, Both as bad as each other. Neither of you come across as discussing anything like in good faith. You’ve both made posts that miss out vital points or are just demonstrably untrue
  14. And it’s only very recently that the Tory Party has even put their leadership out to the wider membership. It was just the MPs.
  15. Prime Ministers aren’t elected in this country. Repeating this nonsense just gives people the wrong impression of the current system
  16. Yes, and I'm probably the right market as I'm a sort of fan but not a super fan if you get me
