Sorry Sue  We both wrote at the same. Same message though. Brilliant.

Great minds thinking alike Barbara.😸

John McDonald, in his interview, looks and sound absolutely crushed. I doubt we'll be seeing him again any time soon.

Andrew Neil hit the nail on the head why Labour have done so badly. It's not just Brexit its the direction and leadership of Labour that meant Remainers (like me) could not vote for Labour.

Gabrielle O'Mahoney ● 2525d

Fantastic news Sue😀🥳😜The people have spoken.This vote is all about Brexit.Utterly disgraceful behaviour these last few years from the anti-democratic Brexit blockers trying to reverse the democratic vote.

Paul Game ● 2525d

Corbyn must resign.

Sue Hammond ● 2525d

He has to! If he stays he'll just make Labour more of a joke!

Gabrielle O'Mahoney ● 2525d

@PaulA huge failure by the LibDems too, Swinson may even have lost her seat, I do hope so. Want Grieve to go as well.

Sue Hammond ● 2525d

Sue, to be honest I was worried it would be much closer and I still think Labour might win Putney....anyway bubbly is on ice!PS I wonder if all the Guardian readers on this forum will be packing their bags and leaving BorisLand???

Adam Tripp ● 2525d

Don’t know Alex. What do you reckon?

Paul Doorly ● 2525d

I was getting edgy too but never really doubted the result. Will sleep well tonight.😴xx

@ Paul - what exactly have the people spoken on ?Brexit?  Corbyn? Johnson? Austerity?  Being fed-up?  Being tactical?  Don't know how you can say the "people" have spoken as if you think the conversation was only about one thing.If this had been a referendum instead of a general election, then you could legitimately claim that the people had spoken on Brexit - but that is not what this is.. I predicted the "people had spoken" malarkey would start as soon as the polls closed, no matter the result.  and congratulations, you're the first to claim knowledge of what "the people" were thinking when they cast their ballots in this muddled election.

@ Sue - Brexit won't happen on January 31st.  If BoJo gets his deal through, there will be a transition period until at least the end of 2020.  So you still have a while before you can crack the champagne... oh, sorry - the English sparkling wine. (Champagne won't be available anymore)

Piers Morgan who voted Remain in 2016 just tweeted the following:"This election was the 2nd EU Referendum - and Britain just voted to Leave even  more enthusiastically. Those trying to flog the ridiculous 'Peoples vote' just got the People's vote"So Mary, I believe your response is out of touch with public opinion. You won't be the only one on this forum who retains this narrow view.

Another project fear bitter Remainer who doesn't believe in Britain.#verysad

Paul Game ● 2525d

Farage just said live on TV (ooh misses! on MSM ITV, phew, not BBC!) said Brexit’s not going to get done by Bozo’s bonkers deadline. Cor blimey you couldn’t male it up could you! Paul?  Cripes! #antidemocrats # youcouldntmakeitup #paulgame # MSM #elites #imaworkingclassboke #brokenrecord #comedian #biasforum #biasedforum #dial999 #botsnotrobots 😏🤣

"Another project fear bitter Remainer who doesn't believe in Britain."Other Britains are available. You don't define Britain.

David Ainsworth ● 2525d

Fair play Freddie, funny post 🤣😀😂

Paul Game ● 2525d

@Mary 23.51The 1st stage of leaving is getting Brexit over the line and will be done by 31st January. This is very symbolic and tells the EU there is no going back.The 2nd stage is the transition period until the end of December 2020.You can keep the champagne because I don't like it. What will you be drinking to drown your sorrows?

Sue Hammond ● 2525d

Spanish "sour grapes" ?

Adam Tripp ● 2525d

You have supported this terrorist sympathiser these last few years who has let antisemitism fester in the party.It is now proved that Corbyn is completely out of touch with the country.What more evidence do you want David?

Paul Game ● 2525d

maybe not, but I don't think this forum represents the public opinion - it's a pretty small circle, no?i might be the only one on the forum who is honest about the difficulty I had in making a decision on my vote - since it was not a referendum, I made a reasonable attempt to think about the consequences for the next 5 years of whoever ended up in government on all of the issues.sorry for my narrow view, which was about the long term good of the country vs. an endorsement of the Jacob Rees-Moggs of the world.

Mary McCue ● 2525d

I voted Leave - I changed my mind based on the evolving facts of the past 3-1/2 yearsstill think you know who I am and can slot me into your standard models?

Mary McCue ● 2525d

just declared -61% of putney disagrees with youLabour 45%LibDem 16%

Mary McCue ● 2525d

Having trawled YouTube in recent days, I find Jacob RM an outstandingly clever and clear thinking man.  I'm hoping that Boris will be PM for a while and get Brexit done, then possibly hand over, or work hard with JRM, the combination which will give a wonderful, sensisble and steady government.

Bunny Payne ● 2525d

I agree with you Bunny. JRM is a very intelligent man.His LBC show is worth a listen.The man gets so much abuse but never loses his cool.What an amazing trait to have.
