    How much of a spanking will the parties get?

    Local elections for some today, your predictions please:

    I'll start with the following:

    Tories lose 950 Councillors, 45-55 councils, and nobody really gains much.

      so far Labour & UKIP seem to be getting the spanking. Considering its mid term with a deeply unpopular leader conservative losses are small.

      LD & Greens seem to be gaining.
      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        Tories - deeply unpopular leader
        Labour - deeply unpopular leader
        UKIP - deeply unpopular leader

        Nothing at all to do with the B word and a swing.....

          Lab: 23.3% (-26.8)
          UKIP: 16.6% (-3.6)
          Con: 12.6% (-11.9)

            Boris Johnson voted.

            ...or so he claimed on Twitter.

            ...then someone must have advised him that there was no election in his area, so he deleted the tweet.

            Twit.

              Interesting that JRM's constituency have gone to the Lib Dumbs. This was a deeply Labour stronghold until 2015 (and with a previous very good MP, much as I dislike his party). Tory losses are almost a given, but clearly Labour have nothing to be happy about.

                Yep,

                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Well done Liberals. Intelligence trumps jingoistic hubris.
