Thought I'd open up the floor. How are your Tories tracking old mate?

I’d like to thank the member for Whitlam for his question. And can I say, what a tremendous name given to your electorate. For all of your quirks sir, the way you represent the fine people of Dapto, you are a credit to your community. By the way, the man of feathers speaks highly of you comrade. Keep him happy.

Ahh, where were we… ahem, yes, the plight of our cousins in the British Isles. May I suggest, the first thing we do when Sir Keir gets his feet under the table, is get the hell out of that silly Orcas business. Seals around the world are at risk and they need not be bothered by these expensive underwater inhabitants.

All in favour ??

Aye

on the face of it a stunning result - at the last election labour won less than a third of all the seats and now they're set to win two thirds. has there ever been such a turn around?
part of the turn around is because labour had an unelectable leader last time. no point in getting too far ahead of the people in a democracy

The United Kingdom has woken up to a new political era this morning.

After 14 years of Conservative leadership, Keir Starmer is the new prime minister, and his Labour party have won in a dramatic fashion.

As was expected in the lead-up, the Conservatives have fallen to one of their worst ever results.

There’s still a couple seats to be called, but so far Labour has 412 seats, well above the 326 needed for a majority.

The Conservatives are sitting on 121, and have lost 250 MPs, including many high-profile ones.

Former UK prime minister Liz Truss lost her seat, while former cabinet minister Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg also suffered defeat.

I see Steimers first official act is to announce England will allow Ukraine to use their missiles and other weaponry inside of Russia For the dummies who don’t get if. This pretty much means England at war with Russia and we are one step closer to WW3

It would be remiss of me not to add his second act was to pledge 3billion of British taxpayers money yearly for as long as it takes to the war in Ukraine

Alternatively they can pull there support allowing Russia to take Ukraine. At that point you can hope he goes know further, just like everyone hoped Hitler would know further after Czechoslovakia, then Poland, then so on. Unlikely? It was what they thought back then too.

Putin will get his wish if Trump wins the US election. Republican great Ronald Reagan will be rolling in his grave if the US aids Russia in any capacity
