Hand-picked for loyalty above all else.
Thatās an abrupt u turn from her. I guess Conservative central office had a word.
If youāre assuming that because Islington has expensive houses itās full of Tories youāre way, way off the mark.
Along with Hampstead itās one of the centres of the progressive left in London (the āchattering classesā that the Tories hate) and returns Labour MPs.

In England it was 47% Johnson, 34% Corbyn, who did sightly better in England than nationally, so more than a third of English people are very strongly left and a majority of people in England voted against Johnson.
I did.
is horribly wide of the mark, as Iāve just shown.
England has the biggest cities in the UK, which account for most of its Labour voters.
Iām listening to LBCās James Oābrien and the 1st caller WOW (Itās the catch up episode from today). Talking about his daughter working without PPE in a ward, heās raging and James has just said Boris doesnāt give a fuck about you or yours and that that man doesnāt love his daughter like DC loves his son. Wow.
Iāll be surprised if DC doesnāt get attacked.
Iāll be surprised if he also leaves, atm either they both go or none.
I was taking exception with you saying that England is full of Tories when over 1/3 voted for the most left wing leader Labour has ever fielded and a majority voted against Johnson.

Tbh Iām more raging at Corbyn now and then for accepting (What I believe was a ruse) in accepting a general election when he should have known better than to trust anyone outside his progressive friends.

All of the above, inn different proportions.
You seem to want to blame one group for everything, every time and itās infuriating.
Maybe if the English suburbs and provinces hadnāt voted for Johnson so much AND the Scots (sorry smacc) AND Welsh had voted for Labour things would have been different, but we all know that Brexit was a big factor too.
It falls on the English because there are so many more of us. If there was as many Scots as English and they voted in the same proportions youād still be under a Tory government.
Was about to post something similar, me and my brother had this discussion, he went Labour I went SNP because of the Curruption during 2012-2016 that has fueled the murders in recent years bringing our North Glasgow to a complete shitshow the last 4 years resulting in my autistic cousin getting hit with machetes on the head all for being friends with his school friends.
Edit:ā¦ Too much personal information.

You can certainly include the nationalists like the SNP and (to a lesser degree) Plaid Cymru in that.
Brighton & Hove in the house

I can see both sides, due to being at times sandwiched between the 2 views, I said I was prepared to vote Labour if it got them the seat, unfortunately that wasnāt happening up here.
In all honesty I blame the Lib Dems.
Youāre missing the point.
If you want to know why Labour did so badly, look to the English provinces and also to Scotland.
ffs in 1997 Labour won 56 seats there and now it has only 1.
