Possibly the best PM we never had...Alas, he is no more, as is this fine fellow, with a good old fashioned name. Who knows what would have happened without his early demise.

I would be very surprised if that happened...I think tactical voting might well see labour in.
More chance of growing an extra cok...Is that certain enough for you?would not be to certain
He needs 40 ish seats and a deal with the SNP and he will be the PM
how do you know he hasnt?More chance of growing an extra cok...Is that certain enough for you?
That is exactly what I'm talking about...Is it though? I am split anyway, having voted for labour and lib deb in the past. But even for labour supporters in Chelmsford, there is really little point in voting for them, other than for reasons of tradition and loyalty. The only chance of labour winning is for enough tory seats to fall, and the lib dems are much stronger as they are the "remain party", which effectively represents around 49% of voters. So a vote for liberal democrats in Chelmsford (who also now run the council) is a supporting vote for labour too. At least, that's what I am going with!

Chelmsford 2015 general election:
Tory 27,732
Labour 9,482
Lib Dem 6,394

Chelmsford 2019 local election:
Lib Dem 39,067 - fewer votes, but won more seats.
Tory 39,766
Labour 2,327

So, lib dems have a real chance of taking Chelmsford in the general election. Apparently labour support has fallen further.
If that was repeated in some other towns .... who knows???
