panzer1 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Smiths majority cut to 1322 that will do for me until the next GE, now people know how near she is to being dumped you never can tell. Swing to labour +3.8, swing to tories +15.5 and she was not even a local Tory?? ---------- Post added 09-06-2017 at 14:29 ---------- If we end up with exactly the same in the eu, out in name only then what will have been the point?

Pinkman Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Smiths majority cut to 1322 that will do for me until the next GE, now people know how near she is to being dumped you never can tell. Swing to labour +3.8, swing to tories +15.5 and she was not even a local Tory?? The next GE will probably be after Brexit negotiations. Vote against her then: she will still win. There won't have been a point. A lot of people did say this at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzer1 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Well one would assume that if we exit in name only then some party will campaign on changing the deal, time is running out. Hope there is a leadership contest, then another GE in oct/Nov. By the time the dust settles in to the new year and 10 months to negotiate, crash out with hard Brexit and job done.

melthebell Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 This will be bloody and protracted. If you wanted something quick, you should have voted Tory nope, my first ever vote in 30 years and i chose to give the tories a bloody nose...it worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzer1 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Did it give the tories a bloody nose, in reality was there ever a chance of them taking your seat. If not you just voted for the status quo. This election as in all elections us dependent on the swing seats, any others just perpetuate the status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkman Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Care to explain the last two points? I'm suggesting Panzer1 votes against Smith at the next election. I think she will win again. Panzer1 edited his post (after I'd replied) wondering what the point of a soft Brexit is. I'm saying there isn't one; everybody said that at the time. In or wholly out. And wholly out is stupid.

This election as in all elections us dependent on the swing seats, any others just perpetuate the status quo. Whitby was Labour during the Blair years (until 2005). It might not be the most marginal seat but it's by no means a safe Conservative one either and this time the majority was about half what it was in 2015.
