Honestly ed Davys campaign tactics were absolutely perfect. All they had to do was amplify and make it more clear just how lovely and positive he is as a person.

That what got my friend. I told him Tories are toast from the polls. That no pinch of salt was going to fix it, but he still voted to get Tories out. I really hope this election starts more of a shift to a diversified vote. Even if that means another option on the table that comes forward as 'not more of the same'

@@nffctrickett Mogg is an infamous anti-union, anti-working class, anti-environment, lobbyist. He might present well but his personal beliefs and political habits are certainly anything but. As the head of the Somerset Capital Management LLP hedgefund, he consistently spent his time in government undermining any motions that would otherwise damage his bottom line (environmental legislation, energy nationalisation, etc.) He invested in Sberbank and profited from the subsidies provided to it by the Russian government during the war in Ukraine - Which although not technically war profiteering, is very well near adjacent to it. Overall, not a very swell chap.

Not really. It’s not a new thing at all, joke candidates have been around since at least the 70s. It’s more about exercising all our right to run for election no matter how silly. I’d say it’s about celebrating democracy in a fun way more than some kind of grand statement about the calibre of politicians (although it is still a little bit this).

Rude? It's the essential Britishness of UK elections. Get a grip
It was sad to see Rishi Sunak apologizing to the public for the Conservative Party's losses, signaling the party's decline. From my perspective, Sunak's selection as Prime Minister was a strategic move to restore credibility and stability both within the UK and on the global stage. His image as a competent and calm leader sharply contrasted with Boris Johnson's erratic tenure. This shift highlights a broader pattern in British politics where leaders are often used for their immediate utility and then discarded when they no longer serve their purpose. The British political landscape frequently leverages individuals for short-term gain, only to cast them aside once their perceived value diminishes.
