Ne'er get thee stitched til Booris be ditched: UK General Election 2019

is... is that even legal

This is my (and Corbyn's) polling station, which is literally 1 minute from my front door.

It's a Romanian thing, you wouldn't understand.

(Kidding aside, it's one of the rare perks of being a member of the Commonwealth.)

either way, thank u for voting to get brexit done, it's so important that we honour our solemn promise to the british people

btw i'm gonna apologise now for shitting up this thread for the rest of the day because i'm unable to concentrate on work and i'm, as i said upthread, shitting it

The French press have cottoned on to Boris. 'Boris Johnson- The liar who is weakening Europe'. @le_Parisien calls @BorisJohnson a 'crafty devil, manipulator but amiable' and notes that he's been caught lying numerous times throughout his career... pic.twitter.com/lVnhnsr2Y2

Le Pariesien sur les monnaies

well, they would say that

I would have thought that making sure that a firmly held political area remained firmly held was a necessity. Hope everybody that can vote is going to do so even in those areas.

Wish my vote hadn't lapsed but been away from being a UK resident for over 15 years and hadn't made sure it was kept up before that. Otherwise would be making sure i did get a vote in.
Just hoping they do get firmly trounced

My pleasure, you'd do the same for us after all.

polling station slightly busier than usual but i think the school was staying open so they were there with their kids.

lots of people taking selfies, slightly more of an atmosphere than usual.

flying back from australia at the moment. will land knowing pretty much what the near-term future of the country is.

lol, in 2010 I voted and then got on a plane to England so I wouldn't have to deal with any hope, and it would all be resolved by the time I knew anything

two weeks later, a day before I went back, a London ilx0r asked what was going on with the election, bcz hung parliament meant a government had still not been formed

I’m in Germany and taking it on trust my proxy hasn’t voted Lib Dem on my behalf.

However it turns out, Labour have run an inspirational campaign that has forced a lot of the establishment to show their hand wrt blocking even a mild rethink of what kind of country we want to have and how we fit into the wider world.

I just heard about the cash for ash scandal that involved Arlene Foster asa amjor participant from reading a review of a new book on the subject from the 13th of NOvember. Hadn't realised beforehand that she was already pretty compromised before she helped out the last hung parliament. THought the DUP were a bad choice before taht.
Hope we're not going to find that anything else as basely corrupt is going to help float an unpopular boat this time around.

Feels early in the day for consolation prize wishlists but in the “whatever else happens” file along with the oustings mentioned upthread I really really want edc to hold Kensington

Here you go Tom. Cromblyn out to put his cross in the box for the incredible flying brick (sorry to see no Communist candidate today)

Jeremy Corbyn votes with his wife Laura Alvarez in his own constituency of Islington North.

Thanks, that's very thorough and, I assume, reliably prophetic.

Do we know what tartan JC's scarf is?

I fear so, too. I'll be sure to be in dreamland before the R3d W4ll comes down.

Time the Tories will actually overtake Labour on counted seats: was around 4am last time but oddly more like 6am in 2015 iirc

If Heccy's tweet riles up Piers Morgan it's all been worth it.

Disgusting flasher here

Whilst out on the campaign trail, @jeremycorbyn has been wearing a scarf that we gave to him.

Whilst he was explaining what it meant to him today, someone interrupted and took the focus away from Care Experienced people.

Ah! I love too see that! re Bellerin

excluding piers morgan is praxis

As a symbol of the election I've been stuck on a train for the last 2 and a half hours, 20 minutes into an hour and 45 minute journey

fuck, owned
