Iain Coleman: They all stand on a stage together while the Returning Officer reads out the results.

The best thing about British democracy is when the actual head of government has to stand in a leisure centre at 5 am beside a guy with a bin on his head to find out if he still has a job.

They make the candidates hang out together while waiting for the results?

They all stand on a stage together while the Returning Officer reads out the results.

The British system never misses an opportunity to humble the head of government and I truly appreciate that.

We can dream about more aggressive handling of heads, but it's a start

I'm told there's a fella from Calais who's very good at that sort of work

Sunak is a squillionaire afaik which makes this Monty Python scene all the more enjoyable bsky.app/profile/osul...

There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

the bin guy is a ventriloquist? :D

Trying to re start the hundred years war are we?

God yes

I want that for us so bad

Me too

This is why we sit up late to watch the results! It's an actual human event.
