I hope that the polarisation really gives somebody the impetus to force their way into the gap. Unless of course, as has been suggested, the Tories escape the influence of the ERG and move more centrist.

Or the Labour party wiseup and ditch Momentum. I'd say that is less likely unfortunately.

In reality we have a two-party system and that is what is preventing centre-ground parties from prospering. I'm 100% sure there are millions of voters who see a vote Tory or Labour because they think a vote for anyone else is a waste so either go reluctantly vote for one of those two or don't bothe...

Do you know how many countries in the world have PR and manage quite nicely?

I would hazard a guess they have a broader but more harmonious political spectrum than we currently have. Lots more centre ground choices for starters.

Somethingfishy

It's nothing like that. Rather than just trying to shout it down why don't you try presenting a coherent argument? The make up of parliament should reflect the views of the country. That would be representative and democratic. One person, one vote and fair representation. ...along with nothing but ...

The people who voted for Blair in 1997 and for a Labour government for 13 years are still there. They voted Tory last night though. Think about that.

You’re not engaging with me, which is up to you. We originally come from the same side. Yet you are staunch and don't believe any bad news that heads Labours way.

You’re misrepresenting my opinions. I haven’t said the press were the only reason, but that it is a big problem for our democracy that they have the power they have.

Fortunately for him it looks like the parliamentry Labour party at least realise Corbyn was the poison. The vast majority have rounded on him. Unless of course they have been reading too many tory newspapers?

Totally deluded.

I didn’t say it wasn’t Corbyn’s fault. I’m talking about the next Labour leader and what they’ll have to face from the press.

The things he was wrong about he remains wrong about. An election doesn’t re-write history! My apologies. I was assuming it was knowing what people really wanted, his finger on the pulse, laughing at remainers claiming people had changed their minds etc. That sort of stuff. If it goes deeper then f...

From the little coverage I saw last night (between bouts of nursing a sick child) I thought Andrew Marr made a very interesting point. The size of the majority effectively give Johnson the leeway to do what he wants. He’ll no longer require the support of the ERG types to get things through Parliam...

Somethingfishy

It’ll continue like this, because if anyone thinks the next Labour leader will get a fair ride, and be honestly reported by the press, then they’re certifiable. In the same way they didn’t report Johnson’s many flaws, and promoted him shamelessly, the press will seek out their “bacon sandwich eatin...

Wasn't he kicked out of the Labour Party for not bowing down to the Corbyn cult?

He helped Blair win three elections.

Everytime i have seen him he couldn't wait to say "Peoples Vote" at every opportunity. That coupled with his implicity in the Iraq war..his record isn't the best in recent times.

If the exit poll is correct it is great news for the country, thank god we won't have a Labour government.
Labour have fought a dirty campaign with lies and underneath tricks they deserve to be obliterated.

Ditching Momentum should be the first thing they do. Pure socialist poison.

That exit poll makes fantastic reading. Neill grilling McDonnell now..he has the look of man that knows it is all over. Lefties will blame the press. They need to look much much closer to home. Learn the lessons. Move away from the left. You'd have thought they would learn after Michael Foot in 1983.
