No they haven't.
The result in Tiverton and Honiton was unpredictable.

1. compare costs to equivalent countries, identify why they are lower and force them down based on this. This goes for Energy/Housing/food.
2. Plan for an ageing population.
3. Plan for automation.
4. Plan for green issues.
5. Plan for future industry.

Originally posted by SueEllen View PostIt was predicated that the Tories would lose Wakefield before the election or didn't you read/watch the media in the past month?

It's shocking really - two major parties collude to manipulate electroral process, how is that not illegal?
If people CHOOSE themselves to vote for say "lesser of two evils" and vote tactically then it's one thing, but parties standing down candidates isn't fecking ok at all.
This tulip is obviously due to idiotic FPTP system still used in this country.Comment

Lib Dems decided not to leaflet and not have prominent MPs visit Wakefield, and vice versa for Labour in Tiverton and Honiton.
They both decided it was worth winning one seat, and losing their deposit in the other area.
Interestingly the Tories seemed to not send prominent MPs out and about in both areas to meet the public. Boris Johnson hid on a farm in a visit Tiverton and Honiton whilst didn't go to Wakefield.

Clear collusion here, but is it actually illegal under existing laws? Seems to be that it SHOULD BE, but is it? I get the feeling it isn't, but this sort of bulltulip must be breaking some laws for sure.
Pensioners get jailed for non-payment of BBC tax, but nobody blinks an eye at this sort of electroral fraud.Last edited by AtW; 25 June 2022, 09:42.Comment
