Hardly any signs outside houses round my way, but did see a couple of Workers Party ones this morning.

there could be a few upsets for Labour in areas with high muslim populations...I reckon Jeff Smith will be ok though.

The migrant boat thing was terrible. The amusing thing is despite how woke the glasto crowd is, it's literally the whitest collection of people you will ever see.

Maybe some people see with white tinted glasses.

What does this even mean 🤣 people are either white or they aren't.

 

You're absolutely kidding yourself if you think the Glasto crowd is diverse. It is largely white and middle class. A mere observation, not really a criticism 

 

Take your criticisms up with Lenny Henry:

What bollocks - there were more people of different colours and races there than ever before, at pone point we were surrounded by loads and we had  a ball with them. Maybe some people see with white tinted glasses.

Comments like the one I am replying to are just................... well, work it out for yourselves cos I am off to get some sleep.

Great to be back home, not.

definitely a narrowing in final stages like many predicted...but still a healthy lead for labour...

I mean Lucas is the most politically successful figure in the green party recent (if not ever) history. So trying to say every candidate is at that level seems a bit silly.

yeah, exactly! big lying  bollocks worthy of farage, trump or a tory. there's a reason why the greens are known as tree tories.

Starmer's blown it by saying he wants to spend some time with his family.

I liked him saying this but can see the Tories - remember how in the pandemic all they cared about was getting people back to work rather than seeing family - will use this to bash him. And it will appeal to so many.
