Originally posted by Uphill I am Tory but was upset that a principled Labour MP lost in Don Valley. She supported Brexit and her constituents and was a beacon of common sense amongst the mad hatters. Labour needs people like her. I've sent her my condolences and hope she resurfaces soon. That was the only down side of the election for me. Highlights: 1. Gina Miller finally getting her comeuppance 2. Nicola Sturgeon proving she is an uncharitable yob (going mental at Swinson's defeat) 3. Alan Johnson berating Jon Lansman 4. The obnoxious Faiza Shaheen shouting over Emma Barnett. If she is the true face of young Labour then they'll never get back. 5. Channel 4's disgracefully pro Labour bias. 6. The PM acknowledging that many Labour votes have lent them their vote. He must remember that. 7. Not having to endure Diane Abbott or Emily Thornbery I unfortunately didn't witness the odious Bercow's apparently crestfallen reaction to the Exit Poll announcement, but I gather it was something to savour. (So no.8 on your list.) Agree, by the way, about the charming Ms Flint.

Just a thought, the Election is over, finished, get over it. Thread over/finished/locked? This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

There's a growing movement on the right to campaign for Diane Abbott for next Labour leader. A little cruel perhaps but amusing all the same. [Tweet Link] 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)
