conservatives will lose 12 of their 13 scottish seats nailed on. paul masterton MIGHT hold on in east ren (large jewish population, lots of accountants and doctors, big unionist energy). hard to predict how the various themes in play will intersect in a seat like this

labour’s sensible compromise position on the UK constitutional question might play well here + they’ve been a bit more forceful on the topic of indyref II since 15 - suspect the class war and ongoing AS concerns will scupper them tho

xp I’m interested in why you say Masterton rather than Mundell, who has a bigger majority and who’s held the seat being the only Tory MP up there for more than a decade
― gyac, Friday, 27 September 2019 08:09 (six years ago)
Paul masterton I think was one of the rebels who voted for a meaningful vote and is much more Remain than most of his Scottish colleagues iirc

story of 17 election in scotland was 1 SNP vote partially staying at home and 2 unionists getting a lot more canny about tactical voting. if you look at 15 result in his constituency, the SNP ran him very close. would expect their bloc to be reenergised in the next election so their vote share should go up. he will def leak votes to LDs and SNP. mundell has also been very visibly at the side of this government (or may’s) throughout - he’s pretty well disliked up here. I mean you’re right he has a pretty sizeable majority but def think his seat will be in play

More generally I was thinking that, after like two years of humiliation people started to feel sorry for Gordon Brown. Some deluded people even felt sorry for Theresa May. Cameron was gone too quickly for it to be an issue, but no matter how much the humiliations pile up it's virtually impossible to imagine people feeling sorry for Boris Johnson.

This summer I was in an airport near Biarritz and we were told a plane was landing 'with a politician in it' and that we weren't allowed to take pictures. Once we got outside it turned out to be Airforce 1, but in the terminal everyone was speculating who it could be. Someone mentioned Boris Johnson and I shit you not the woman next to me says "bless his heart."

Corrie/Threads actor R33se Dinsd4le absolutely despises him and described him as an IRA supporter who will kill the labour party off for decades or some shit like that. I had an online row with him (on a HTAFC forum) around the time of the Owen Smith leadership challenge!
