I had so hoped it would at least be double digits.
Don't get me wrong, it's good that Farage won his seat and to get four (up from zero) is pretty amazing, but it still feels like a kick in the teeth.
I bet they have a decent percentage of the popular vote though, which is what makes it hurt more I reckon. Labour are an unmitigated disaster for this country.
No one seems to be asking, so I am curious... do you thinkthis election was fair and not rigged?
I suspect the Tories may have rigged it so as to not lose by so much, 120 seats is twice as much as what many of the pollsters had predicted, who typically favour the status quo. Genuinely don't know a single person who voted for them in 2019 who voted for them this time around.
No reason not to think it was on the level, apart from postal votes being a bit open to abuse the actual counting is done by hand with paper ballots.
That's good to know. Thanks
