BBC News just interviewed Ed Milliband, a MP who is acting as Shadow Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero. IIUC, Shadow Secretaries act as counterparts to the govt secretaries and develop alternative policies and criticism. This means Labour will have a cabinet ready immediately.
BBC is also reporting that eight current Conservative cabinet ministers will not only lose their cabinet seats but have also lost their parliamentary seats. This seems like such a stunning repudiation of the Conservative Party. You really do love to see it.
Oh itโs so good
Iโm sad that in our Wyre forest the racist vote meant con stayed in, by such a small margin it hurts 800 seats
Reform made a 10k gain here ๐คฎ
Ack, that's such a tiny margin! I was unfamiliar with Reform til just a week or so ago and didn't realize they were making such gains. Farage is such a slimy fucking weasel that I am dumbfounded he's been elected to anything. At least in your district, 800 votes difference is totally fixable.
