It doesn't feel like 1997.

Yes! Lib Dems took Bicester and Woodstock!

If we had PR, would there be a Labour/Lib Dem/Green coalition?

One electoral reform I'd like to see is to make voting in GEs mandatory.

Labour won Banbury! Fantastic! That means the Attorney General lost her seat too!

Another change I'd like to see to the British constitution is that the monarch should be elected.

33.8% - Is this the smallest popular share of the vote of any winning party in a General Election? I think it is.

In my lifetime (I was born in 1971) there have been 4 Labour PMs and 8 Tory.
35 years of Tory rule against 18 years of Labour.

Anxiety particles float about looking for things to attach to. Immigration is a magnet for general anxiety. That's why populists win. But immigration is not really a problem. Sadly the country may not realise this till it's too late.
(Vince Cable has just made the point that there is no immigration problem in Sunderland or Blyth)

It's absurd to think you know what people think in the country as a whole because you've spoken to a lot of people when canvasing. No-one can talk to enough people in enough places to get a real idea. And yet politicians consistently say, "when I speak to people, what they say is...." And, of course, they are more likely to remember those who agree with them and dismiss those who don't!
