It's technically still Friday AM results on the way, unfortunately Kate and Ashley have both missed the deadline this time (although Kate did let me know she was away) so the number of participants is 17

I honestly voted Labour because I thought it would be easier to type I can see why the Tories won since they're in power but I was banking on us being a little lazy
I also wrote these questions before Prince Philip died so I assumed the answer to #1 would be York (that was my gut reaction at the time of writing, but I did change to Edinburgh when I opened the round bc... breaking news... etc), so I guess the news definitely affected things subliminally.

tbf Florence didn't invent any cures that I'm aware of (then again neither did Marie Curie) she just revolutionised the standard of nursing.

At time of writing, the three unanimous answers were 3, 8 and 13 - JFK, Churchill and Turkey. But that ended up... not happening
