A supportive polling organisation report he has a 2% lead so very marginal.call on this seat then. In any other part of the country he’d have no chance at all True it's the same for any long standing MP challenging as an independent

Wouldn’t it be more of a shock if he wasn’t? This will be his 10th campaign there. He’s just telling us what everyone knows about the inhabitants of Islington They must appreciate a politician who has them at heart. Corbyn is one of the few good guys in politics, just a shame he's too weak when it comes to defence or he'd make a good PM

Starmer will be the best thing to happen to this country for 15 years. Finally we may just get a PM who isn't a career politician and who has worked hard for their success. A PM who can actually be an inspirational figure to working class kids up and down the country. A PM who has worked for a living before getting into politics. A PM who's a decent family man with no salaciousness or skeletons in the closet. A PM who's genuinely patriotic and will represent us rather than embarrass us on the world stage. A PM who understands the seriousness of government and the impact it has on everyday people. Just hope we're not stupid enough as a country to pass up the opportunity to bring fairness, respectability and integrity back into politics. Time for the aristocracy to make way. What's the punchline?

Not a single living MP can attract the crowds our Jezza can and that's after the media, corporations and elite have spent 7 years trying to smear him. Many more stories just like this all over Islington.

Big moment ahead for actual conservatives. Will you bottle it at the polling station and vote for 5 more years of moderate, soft, weak, centre left shite in Sunak (or Starmer)... Or will you vote for a party that actually represents your views and core values in Ricky Tice's Reform. Disappointing that Farage isn't standing but I still think there is a huge opportunity for Reform to win a few seats, with the right focus on the campaign trail. Ricky Tice, what a bloke. Depends where Reform put candidates up. Cant see them having candidates everywhere, if they have one in Stone I will vote for them, if not the Tory... What's impressed you about the Tories last 14 years reign to want them in again?

Do we think Jonathan Gullis will get a second term in Stoke North? Seems to be popular at least going off of Facebook. Appears people are conflating being a social media influencer with hard work. I've got a horrible feeling he will. Got a feeling that Brereton will keep his seat in Stoke South. Stoke Central will turn Red for sure.

The change in the boundaries for Stoke South, which now includes Swynnerton and Yarnfield will unfortunately keep it blue. I'll do my bit and vote Labour but feel I'll be one of very few in Yarnfield who do so.

I think many of the ex Labour voters will go back to Labour on the basis 'Boris was stabbed in the back' I think re Stoke North Gullis is completely unelectable and will lose heavily Stoke south re the boundary changes might stay blue and Aaron Bell has shown well re the stop the stink campaign in Newcastle however I think the most likely outcome is all 4 seats turn red again

Countrywide there will be a Labour landslide for sure but it's going to be a sad day for the country when it happens. This lot have got to be the weakest Labour lot of all time. Beige personified and arguably the most right leaning socialist party we've ever had. Ultimately it's all pointless anyway as the main parties do nothing but answer to and finance the proper elite above them.

I think he will too, don't think there's enough of an appetite for Labour, though I do think there'll be a lot of Reform votes and people abstaining that will eat into his majority. I really hope he gets beat, the guy is an absolute laughing stock and embarrassment to the area. Can barely string a sentence together.

I hate dealing with politicians, hate even more dealing with Tory politicians but each time i've dealt with Brereton i've walked away quite frustrated that I don't hate his guts. Maybe it's my way of looking at it.

Yep. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpddxy9r4mdoI thought most 18 year olds were working most weekends anyway. Assuming most would go for the community option scarce resources of skilled people in NHS etc will be diverted to mobilising a group of people completely disinterested.

Apparently they are going to fund it by cutting down on tax evasion and diverting money from the charities.
"The remaining £1.5 billion will be paid for with money previously used for the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF), which is a package to support charities and community groups, the Tories said."
Batshit crazy bunch of wankers.

14 years of decline. Massive spending, services cut, watching them line their own pockets, the list goes on and on. This government is surely the worst one we've ever had.
"I think I'll vote Tory again"
I just can't grasp how one single person could ever want another five years of this shitshow.
