More blah, blah, blah.
I warned, but prepare to see the UK become an even bigger magnet for illegal arrivals & numbers soar as our borders disintegrate.
We need to leave the ECHR, scrap the HRA & quickly remove people when they arrive illegally.
Nothing else matters.
Labour have won a landslide with over 400 seats from less than 10M votes (Boris Johnson got just under 14M in 2019).
Tories got 6.5M votes for around 120 seats.
Reform got 4M votes and won 4 seats.
Lib Dems got 3.4M votes and won 68 seats.
Time to change the voting system?
It has been a huge privilege to have served as MP for Suffolk Coastal since 2010. Yesterday provided a different result for what I hoped with reduced turnout and Reform doing so well. I want to thank my Association, my team, my friends and family for all their support.
We’ve been going hard all day for your vote. If you’re just getting home from work please make time to go out and vote. It’s going to be close here in Plymouth and I want to go on fighting for and serving you.
As a few of you have pointed out...
60% of the electorate actually turned out to vote, @Labour got 35% of the vote.
And so under our first past the post system they get to run the country with a mandate from 20% of the people

I’d rather hold my head held high and vote Tory than be somebody so stupid they were fooled into thinking reform could be the official opposition. It ain’t happening.
Many will regret their votes soon. It’ll be too late, we’ll have a socialist and communist state under Labour.
