A record number of 629,875 people registered to vote in the UK yesterday - the highest amount in a single day.

All that's left now is to see whether 4th July 2024 is a bigger celebration in the UK or the USA?

If Ed Davey forms the opposition, I might go buy fireworks.

No results till the early hours of the 5th.

Yes but we’ll get an exit poll and those are pretty reliable. If it’s as big a landslide as predicted then there’ll be no doubt who’ll form the next government by 10:01pm on the 4th.

And most are under 35 - brilliant!

Whatever the result it would be refreshing to see a higher turnout than normal because there have been so few governments with a genuine mandate over the last few decades.

Incoming fake voters hysteria! (Apparently Tiktok sent something out and DE YOOF responded)

Absolutely - the alternative is for the (deeply unpopular, corrupt & incompetent) politicians to accept responsibility of their actions & that isn't going to happen.

So about another 400k+ votes against the incumbents. Superb.

A largest possible voter turnout is a win for democracy, irrespective of us liking their votes

Remind us of the crossover age where voters are more likely to vote conservative than labour? 71? That’s a lot of “not conservative” voters!!

Bearing in mind most traditional Tory voters (even if they are now moving to reform) will already have registered years ago, this is looking promising 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I did a little breakdown over lunch (the majority of 18-24s would not have been edible to vote in 2019):

It's such a beautiful thing to see after so many painful successive years... Of course the fear is Kier won't take this seriously 👀

He's so weak, surely they must have someone else they can put forward.

Aye, well what does say about the state of play. They *could* if they really cared to stop fascism rolling over them.
