You say that like it’s a bad thing
“Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions…”
And BoJo’s, and Truss’s and Farage’s.
If the Tories come in in third place, some lasting change for the better might just be possible.
A Lib Dem official opposition would be amazing
He outlasted a lettuce, so he can put that on his CV when he’s looking for work.

Obligatory: Fuck the polls, only voting matters. Crush those fuckers into the bowels of history. Appreciate democracy. It’s progress, even when it’s not perfect.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Rishi Sunak is reported to be worried about losing his own seat as a string of polls put the Conservatives on course for a historic defeat just hours before voting begins.
The party is set to suffer its worst general election result in history, according to a major poll for The Independent that suggests it will hold on to just 82 seats, as a Labour landslide gives Sir Keir Starmer’s party 461.
Earlier, the last YouGov MRP of the campaign gave Labour the biggest majority for any single party since 1832, with 431 seats.
Chancellor Jeremy Hunt and defence secretary Grant Shapps are among the veteran Conservatives set to be ousted, polls predict.
The prime minister is said to have told confidants on Tuesday he thought the vote in Richmond, North Yorkshire, was too close to call.
Today he insisted he was still in the fight after one of his closest allies, Mel Stride, appeared to concede the Tories were heading to a heavy defeat.

So what brought this on after what seems like so long that Tories have been in power? It just seems like it’s been a string of bad PMs and bad decisions one after the other for years on end, why now?
