The Royal Borough of Kensington has fallen to Labour for the first time ever, overturning a lead of 7000. Expect a spate of gerrymandering anytime soon...

It's a baffler this one. I did wonder about age demographics and a stand against the double/triple lock situation. Then again, a very simplistic way of looking at is would people in Kensington need it?

Another fantastic night for Labour in the capital. We sent the Tory candidate in my constituency to hell where the bastards truly belong! I notice that the new M.P. for Stoke South isn't resigning his council seat? Could it be he's helping the ragbag coalition of Stoke council to cling-on to power like he's helping the ragbag coalition at Westminster cling-on to power? All he needs is four more jobs to catch up with George Osborne?

You would imagine in the next election the equilibrium of certain seats would return.
While your are celebrating Kensington don't forget to question stoke. That has been labours problem in the past

I drove through Longton yesterday afternoon ( if any of you drive a black VW golf GTI , yes i did see you stick your fingers up as you past me- the speed limits ate there for a reason ) i drove down the strand and even noticed so soon that there is an air of arrogance about the place

Very easy to explain both - Brexit.
Tells you all you need to know about it.
The wealth generators the Tories love so much voted against the Tories and for the only party that could win in Kensington simply because they know Brexit is a shit idea and wanted their brexiteer mp to lose to send him and the Tories who created this entire Brexit mess a message.
In Stoke, the Tory boy tapped into the Brexit Ukip vote in just about sufficient numbers to oust Flello.
Both all about Brexit from both ends of the thought process about it!

I think the ex-M.P. is a lady? Though, with these posh Tories it wouldn't surprise me if his parents didn't call him Victoria?

When I was growing up in the 40's and 50's the Labour majority was over 20,000. I was very surprised when I found out that Stoke South had fallen to the Tories against the national trend, but Middlesborough South (another big Brexit area) also turned blue.

As a boy from Meir, Weston Coyney children were the ones who had uniforms without holes in the sleeves.

As a fellow Meir lad, I always noticed that the Coyney kids sometimes had ham sandwiches and not just paste.

Said on the news down here last night about Kensington that it will only get worse for the Tories as the houses are being bought up by rich foreigners and they are scarpering out hence Labour getting stronger

Hanley Park & Shelton? Stoke South? That's never right! And as someone who lives in Blurton, where the fuck is Blurton East? Or West for that matter! Blurton is split into three bits, 'Newstead & Finstock' (Sort of Blurton south) 'Old Blurton' (The middle bit) and 'Hollybush' (The bit of Blurton nearest Fenton)

That map of Stoke South gets nowhere near to Hanley Park & Shelton.... And I live in ST3 & I onna no 'Blurton East' (I've never in all my life heard of such a thing ) *I'm not knocking you by the way, Felonious. I'm just doubting whatever it is that's saying Blurton has east & west parts... North, south & central parts yes, but no east & west
