Father Brown 209 Posted June 22 Of course they would. Jo Swinson losing her seat (and therefore Lib Dem leadership) wasn’t that long ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoverAndOut 4,746 Posted June 22 Just now, Father Brown said: Of course they would. Jo Swinson losing her seat (and therefore Lib Dem leadership) wasn’t that long ago. Her majority was minuscule, however. She'd lost it and regained it in the previous 2 elections to 2019. Richmond has had 3 Tory Big Beasts in a row it's that safe (Leon Brittan, William Hague and, for now, Rishi Sunak). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Father Brown 209 Posted June 22 That’s true. Would be great to see the Tories finally lose that seat, would be the cherry on top of a fantastic night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TQR 14,386 Posted June 22 A reminder that Richmond is surrounded by Labour councils now and has a Labour mayor. Could happen. I think, in his heart of hearts (or the Tory equivalent of a heart), Dr Death really wouldn't mind if it did happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fairness, this one is a valid point: Of course, he should have added on that the men appearing on it are brainless twonks with egos significantly larger than their cocks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Father Brown 209 Posted June 23 I’ve had Nigel Farage’s cameos recommended to me on YouTube over the past couple of weeks. If he doesn’t win in Clacton perhaps he can go back to wishing Hugh Janus a happy birthday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
