I'm surprised by the LibDems having the most gains. I wonder if it's because people believe in whatever it is they're currently saying, or if it was simply a "none of the above" vote...

When it's "only" locals and not a general, I doubt 104 losses will be enough to seriously hurt BoJo? It might be one of many straws an ambitious replacement might yield, but on its own...

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 ...

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
