I mean, yes it was a disappointing evening for Labour, but I’m really not quite sure how the media have managed to twist it into a ‘win’ for the Tories, I mean, they lost Westminster and Wandsworth fgs.

I do however love the gymnastics the Labour right go through to still demonise Corbyn, if they win a seat it’s all down to Starmer, cause he’s done such good work, but if they lose one? Definitely not his fault, nope, not at all, no sir, definitely Corbyn

Starmer was Sly

They could not ask him

I think you’d be surprised just how little, average people away from the radfem bubble care about that

I'm an adult human female with the XX chromosome. That's what a woman is. Trans women are worth as much as me and deserve to live a happy life, but they are not the same.

Also tbf both the council elections of 2018 and the general election of 2019 can't really be used to judge what people think of the two main parties - May's government was such a flop that it elevated the already brief-but-present wave of apparent feasibleness the Corbyn train was gathering; and by 2019 not only had that faded, but now the election was against Johnson a loveable buffoon who comes out with amusing things and would be a right laugh down the pub ...

Conservatives lose control of Castle Point Borough Council
to a nobody independent

Time to slash the local funding grants.

In Scotland, the first preference vote has now been declared for 15% of the wards in Scotland.

It looks as though the Conservatives are going to suffer perhaps an even bigger reverse north of the border than they have experienced in England.

Their share of the vote is currently down by six points, while Labour are up by two points. If this pattern continues then Labour will displace the Conservatives from second place for the first time in a Scottish election since 2016.

Among the pro-independence parties, the SNP are up by 1.5 points and the Greens are up by 2.5 points.

However it should be kept in mind that the SNP did not do particularly well in the 2017 local elections and the party seems to be suffering where the Greens are making a significant advance.

As south of the border, the Liberal Democrats are performing somewhat better than anticipated, with a two point increase in their share of the vote so far.

i find it quite bizarre that the pundits are making predictions based on a very poor turnout where huge areas didnt even have a vote. A turnout in the mid 20's gives such a margin of error that they would be better not predicting at all

Eh, I'm not sure. People might not have much of an opinion about things like men in female sports when it's just an abstract; but when male people are visibly taking opportunities away from women, it's gonna "peak" people.
More women than you'd think don't like the word woman being replaced with "inclusive" terms, when referring to woman-specific healthcare etc...
