I wondered about that and so looked up the results.

If I'm still in Southend when a vote comes around I will be.

I too live in the South East and don't vote Tory, although signs were moderately encouraging. The Tories increased their share of the vote from 50% to 55%,
but Labour's share more than double from 15% to 33%.

Still can't believe my Tory/Lib Dem swing seat turned Labour last time out.

It’s not really a game, it’s just drinking every morning.

Just received an email bigging up that for the 2nd year running in London, Pay As You Go single fares on buses, Tube, Tram, Docklands Light Railway and all Santander Cycles are frozen. They're actually frozen all the way until 2020 but I guess the Mayor wants to remind everyone. I'm sure it'll be one of his key wins during the next election, as will the hopper pay once bus fair.

Irish deputy prime minister Frances Fitzgerald is set to resign, according to Irish broadcaster RTÉ.
The reports are yet to be confirmed by the Irish government.
Ms Fitzgerald had been at the centre of a controversy which could have resulted in a snap general election.

This is a car crash interview.
Tulip Siddiq is a labour MP. Her aunt is the prime minister of Bangladeshi. She could easily pull a few strings.
The pregnancy comment is pretty nasty too.

She was my MP before I moved out. That's pretty damning tbh

I was about to say that as an opposition MP it would be inappropriate for her to intervene in a diplomatic way on behalf of the UK government, but strawberry float me that video is absolutely damning. How the hell did she get selected with a background like that. Not to mention her "not my constituent, not my problem" attitude. Then she leaps straight into playing the race card!
I really hope Corbyn withdraws the whip. She should not be a Labour MP.

She shouldn't be an MP full stop.
