I1L2T3 Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 The Tories' failure to win in 2010 was entirely, and solely, down to the large bias in constituency sizes, in favour of left-wing areas. With that removed, they'd have had a majority of over sixty. Indeed, with that removed, they'd have been the largest party in the Commons in 2005! I'm still puzzling over this. In a 600 seat parliament with 2010 voting patterns the Tories would have won 330+ seats? I just cannot imagine that is remotely true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balpin Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I want to be a tory lapdog Sorry, those positions are already taken by the majority of posters on here. You cant even get a position as one whose face they spit in, these guys are queuing for the jobs. Apply again after the next election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I1L2T3 Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 There were 650 (ish?) seats in the 2010 election. But the boundary realignment will also include a reduction in seats to 600 Just give me the link to back up your claim. Or just admit you were wrong and let's move on.
