Are The Cons About To Break The Record.

[gulliver1]

If the Cons lose one of tomorrows by-elections it means they have clocked upmore By-election defeats in a single parliament than any Govt  since the 1960s.

I'd be more worried about the implosion that is occuring in Labour at the moment if I was you me old china.

[gulliver1]

If the Cons lose one of tomorrows by-elections they will break a record, if they lose both of them it will be a sure pointer to them losing the Big one...Oh dear.

[youngmafbog]

Well Labour wont be winning one of them will it?

[ToraToraTora]

Who's record will they be breaking?

[gulliver1]

Since the 2019 GE ,the Cons have fought and lost eight by-elections .That is eight Signs of the public losing confidence in the Cons.

[ToraToraTora]

Yes but what party currently holds the record?

[gulliver1]

11,09 ..John Major..

[ToraToraTora]

err nope, have another go, surely you have done some research before spouting BS.

[theshedman]

How come it's John Major when he didn't come into politics until 1979 and you have put 1960s in your thread.

These two by-elections  are a referendum on Sunak and his Tory party If reform kick the Tories into third place which could happen it will be a Vote Leave.. for Mr Sunak. And a very short Remain term for the Tories fourth PM .

Sunak said yesterday " we are turning the corner" you sure are again, every corner you turn you crash into a By- election.

[Stableford]

Unless Kier and co get serious about getting the jew-haters out of the party, it won't be a by-election you need to worry about, it'll be a bye-bye election.
