Popehat: Hard to believe the party that produced Boris Johnson and Liz Truss could falter like that

Hard to believe the party that produced Boris Johnson and Liz Truss could falter like that

Britain's Labour Party is projected to win a historic landslide victory — knocking the Conservatives out after 14 years of power in a brutal wipeout

Labour Party To Win U.K. General Election, Exit Polls Showwww.huffpost.com The center-right Conservative Party has governed Britain for the past 14 years.

It's hard to believe it took 14 years of everything going to hell for the UK to figure out maybe electing the same party over and over again was the problem.

Laughs in American, then cries

Labour actively refused to take yes for an answer, what with giving the leadership to Jeremy Corbyn and all that

It took America 24 years of Nixon-Ford-[Carter Interregnum]-Reagan-Bush to realize this, then after two terms of prosperity we turned around and gave the keys to another fucking Bush

Clearly they could learn something from the GOP about how to be terrible and still win at the ballot box.

Boris and his ilk forgot to pay off the high courts when they had a chance.

Lettuce is retiring from politics.

Predicted to lose 241 seats. Well.

Boris never waited like this.

No he'd have been caught trying to bang her in the green room

See? It only takes 15 years of decline, the destruction of beneficial alliances, and Boris Johnson for people to wise up.

Funny how much better Labour does when their leader isn’t an antisemitic lunatic.

In fairness, Sir Keir Rodney Starmer (KCB, KC) did everything within his power to prevent this outcome.

Yeah but they were up against the party that produced Jeremy Corbyn.

who'da thought that voting is the swiftest and easiest way to remove right wing lunatics from office

Well they were prats

I guess Rishi Sunak will have to go join Liz and Boris at the IDU, where conservatives go for revenge. It won't be as much fun as banking off the voters in the UK, but they do get to teach their bag-o-dirty tricks to other conservatives from around the world. So there's that.😏

This is what Republicans think will happen without Trump on the ballot and they prefer fascism and destroying the republic to avoid this exact situation. Tories right now wish Johnson was as good as Trump.

Last Week Tonight had a segment about this last week. They literally lost to a centerist who nobody really knows shit about.

A government so incredibly bad their five year olds got shorter.

Yeh but other end of the scale is the Tories equivalent is the retrumplican party and they not only created the beast but they're likely to have him as the great orange god for as long as he lives

and vanilla ice is leading Labour

Guess they didn't suppress enough votes.

If only the majority of Dems could get their shit together, and tell the donor class elites in the party to eat their shit, and make a massive landslide victory here in the U.S., and drive out for good the trust fund baby mega donors completely from the party.

"center-right" ummm..... nope.

I’d take them over the GOP any day of the week

turns out the real brexit was the tories it destroyed along the way

at least the head of lettuce hasn't received Labour's whip yet

The first time I saw a clip of Liz Truss giving a speech I thought it was Amy Poeller doing a bit.

Don’t forget Cameron and May.

Good old pork markets.

Yeah, that's too Vlad.

I was hoping for lib dems opposition. It doesn't feel humilating enough. They're still going to have 3 digits worth of seats.
