Looks to me that we are heading for a coalition government in a couple of years.
Only question is whether it will be;
- Labour / Lib Dems / Greens, or;
- Tories / Reform
What a mess.
This could all have been avoided if Starmer and Reeves (who I voted for 2 years ago) hadn’t made such a shitshow of things. |  |

My favourite comedian. Will be seeing him in May |
No-one has mentioned that Gorton is roughly 80% Muslim and Denton was roughly 80% Labour.
The crazy Greens were smart enough to have their Gorton leaflets in Arabic.
There was also mumbling at the count how there was numerous attempts in Gorton to have illegal joint votes at the boxes. [Post edited 27 Feb 17:52]

If the Greens ever get power we can kiss goodbye to the Britain we knew, as Kier Starmer said we'll definitely be an 'Island of strangers' and crazy left loons like Heisenburg will be wondering why his grand-daughter is forced to wear the hijab 40 years from now.
He probably won't be around so won't need to care. | | | |

I don’t understand what all the fuss is about.
Every government party gets a good kicking at bye elections, it’s been like that since the beginning of time.
Yesterday was no different. Previous Labour voters didn’t want to vote mid term for their party and thought which alternative party will stop the odious Farage and his bunch of right wing nutters from winning ?
Answer, we will vote tactically for The Greens and that’s exactly what they successfully did. | |

Those 'Right wing nutters' are basically more mainstream than you think and are made up of a lot of businessman/women who have a realistic grasp of how to run an economy unlike Labour and the loony communist Greens. | | | |

Exactly this. Voting Reform does not make you a right wing nutter. Many very average normal people in this country are seriously worried about the amount of people coming into this country, we haven’t got a clue who many of them are or what their motives are. When do we stop when our population has expanded by an extra 5 million 10 million 20 ? . It’s ridiculous and Labour Couldnt give a monkeys about it. Reform are seen as the only party that will sort it out and many normal (not right wing thugs) British people want this. [Post edited 27 Feb 19:46]

Like Liz Truss and her budget. The one which the Daily Mail heralded with the headline ‘At last a True Blue Budget’ The one that real business people warned would crash the economy and would wipe out your pension. The one that meant she lasted 45 days and cost the Uk economy £50 billion. |  |

I did not back leaving the EU, but I respected that the majority had voted for it.
I don't think leaving the EU has caused much of our issues over the last decade, although the EU itself has not helped with their stubbornness in making it difficult for us to actually leave.
Many of the issues of this country are not of its own making, Covid, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, illegal immigration, Trump tariffs etc are all major factors both for the previous government and now for the current one.
Party politics in this country as changing, both Labour & the Tories have people in it with agendas of their own and not for the good of the country, the people want change.
The Green party winning is not unexpected, by elections are always protest votes, but overall the combination of their views and their strategy of now putting themselves up as a socialist alternative to Labour will not win them many votes.
Starmer is not the greatest leader Labour or this country has had, but what would replace him as Labour leader is even more worrying

The Greens are Communists, they hate companies that make profits (they don't realise making profits are what pays for everything) they despise anyone who does really well. On top of that they want to legalise all drugs, including crack cocane and heroine and they want open borders. So the half a billion people who want to move to the West (UK) can come, even though the rest of Europe and the world are tightening their borders.
Gorton and Denton is 36% Muslim, how long will it be until Britain is the same? When the majority of this countries' councillors and MPs are Muslim they will impose their values on our society. Let's hope they will be as nice to us as we have been to them. |
Grow up, the status quo is not working, you as someone in their 50's or older are doing alright, let's not upset the apple cart.
I'm nearly 60 and I can see it doesn't work any more, it has to change. | | | |

The leader is a complete nut job .
So you are happy to legalise Heroin and crack cocaine . You are also happy with open
borders then .
What language was the winning candidate speaking when you listened to her . I can only understand English. |
Legalisation of drugs is the way forward, it takes the criminal gangs out of the equation, less crime, win for everyone | | | |

It's an interesting proposal, but does that mean if a few of us fancied a bit of cocain at the football, they can legally get it from the pharmacy or doctors? Fans really high at games? Making it legal, what does that actually mean? Legal just for those addicted or people can be walking around the streets high? Not sure hard drugs being legal is a good idea.

Yes, if you want it, have it but sold by state run hubs and taxed to a level that can support any negative effects from the policy.
It would take out a lot of the criminal activity around drugs and a lot of the attraction to drugs Is the illegality ( is that a word?) of the drug culture | | | |

It is pretty rare to have both of the following happening:-
- Labour to not be in the top 2, and;
- Tories to lose their deposit
It looks to me that neither of the “big two” can continue to rely on traditional core support, as people can see what an utter shambles both of those parties have been in government.
We are heading for coalition politics and the “big two” have brought this on themselves. | |

So, you're happy for your kids to go out and buy a bit of heroine for a good night out?
We're going to have to spend billions on drug clinics. | | | |

But that could cause a lot of problems couldn't it? "If you want it, have it". So how many people will be having these really hard, dangerous drugs who wouldn't normally consider having it? Students having a party at University, being offered drugs legally by their friends or by just buying them in a shop and they think "Well, it's legal so who cares I will try it". You could end up with lots of people, who would never dream of going down that dark road of getting illegal drugs on the black market, but might try it if it's legal. How many deaths will there be? How many will become addicted to drugs as if it's like buying alcohol in a pub or shop? I understand the need to stop the illegal drug dealing going on, but not sure it's a good idea that anyone can drugs whenever they want, because the hard drugs in particular are very dangerous, much more so than alcohol. Would you want anyone in your family legally buying really dangerous drugs because they are depressed or want a fun night out? I wouldn't. [Post edited 28 Feb 0:40]
