    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Its perfectly possible to understand how vote share works but also to be interested in the underlying numbers. Plenty of people suggesting this is a 'bigger' win than Blair yet Labour are nearly 4m votes down on that election despite winning roughly the same number of seats. The numbers do...

    Just looking at the list of Conservative MPs and they're not exactly overflowing with options for the next leader.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    How much longer can this go on? When he first got in given his age I thought they may replace him part way through the term or at least in the run up to an election but he's gone downhill rapidly and they've just ploughed ahead. Truly bizarre, they must be able to see how much damage this is...

    My last job was working from home and it was pretty shocking to me how many people in my area are around in the day and clearly not working, and not just those that are retired. And they definately weren't people who were working from home as they were never working! Remember looking up some...

    Labour could have put up some more inspiring people on BBC. So far it's been Mandleson and Streeting so far. People will be wondering if its too late to change their vote!

    think the numbers will probably be more interesting to dig into than the seats in the coming days some suggestion that the labour vote is pretty static and its just a case of people not turning out to vote for the Conservatives or switching to Reform

    Kind of blows my mind that people look at the state of the country and the state of the government and think let's have 5 more years of this. Even my Mum, a Thatcher loving, Daily Mail reading lifelong conservative voter has switched to Labour for the first time in her life.
