Jacob Rees-Mogg on this Christmas competing in a charity special of The Weakest Link.
I'm a Celeb platformed Farage.
@@andrewfulton3435"I'd like to support a charity very close to my heart: Gruel for Orphans".
I'm a politician kick me outta here 😢😅😢😅
I’m pitching a new show to ITV: Celebrity Lobotomy.
We know these ex MPs will do anything for cash.
Therese Coffey losing to the Greens is, i think, my favourite so far. Pure satire.
Unfortunately the presenters mixed up their Suffolk seats - it was Waveney Valley that went Green, not Suffolk Coastal. Coffey did still lose, but to Labour.
absolutely
Coffey Stains.
She didn't.
@@stephfoxwell4620 But she still lost :D
After 14 years of this they still get 110? What a bonkers country, they should be on zero and facing lengthy prison time in many cases.
EXACTLY! This is what you get when you destroy an education system!
Many people are insulated due to their wealth and dont care about the less fortunate.
If you think they were bad, just wait and see what Labour will be like.
Genuinely must have some form of brain damage. I can understand people voting for Reform on the right, even Greens for specific reasons. I can't think of one single, solitary reason you'd vote Tory, yet 1 in 5 people still do. It's beyond comprehension.
Tory voter above 🙄😂😂@@richardlancaster9078
I only watched this for Ian Hislop
Me too😅😂
Me too
One of Liz Truss’s former colleagues made an excellent point. He said she could have saved her own seat if she hadn’t demonstrated so epically that she hadn’t learned a THING from her previous experience. Instead, she courted the far right in America and haunted Westminster, making Tufton Street loaded neo-liberal speeches about how she would double down on her agenda. Now she wonders why she’s out of her job?
Personally I'm glad she was so open about her agenda, rather than keeping it secret. Presumably it was so scary to her voters that it contributed to her loss.
@@marijo1951 : Good point. Better to have recalcitrant openness than weaselly fake contrition. We can all be grateful for that.
It´s quite interesting what happened in her seat. She lost votes to Reform for sure, i.e to the far right party. She also lost votes to an independent candidate, who was running as a more moderate Tory, and the Labour candidate increased his share of the vote just enough to boot her out.
The Tories are kind of between a rock and a hard place atm, they have to either go further right and risk losing more moderate voters, or move closer to the centre and risk losing votes to Farage.
@@peterholden3672 Farage has some serious question marks over his attitude to Putin as well. He's a little too pro-Putin for me. If not for that I'd have voted reform. His Ukraine comments cost them my vote.
@@jonlee2217 If Trump wins we might see a rise in, I don't want to say pro, but a conciliatory attitude towards Putin unless Ukraine can make some decisive gains.
The USA sorely needs someone like Ian Hislop. He's a genuine national treasure. Take care of him, okay?
His excellent publication, "Private Eye", gets sued regularly, loosing mostly.
Jon Stewart? Look up the Podcast-Episode, they done together! It's great!
Hey, wait a minute, you've got John Oliver! And Jon Stewart! And Steven Colbert!
@@nickbarton3191 It's a sign he's doing something right.
@@TonyHightower I agree completely with your second statement.
Penny Maudant: 'If we again want to be the natural party of government...' Thinking you (and thus no other party) are the 'natural' government is the beginning of the Tory problem! How about developing a sense that being in government is an honour to be treasured - thus no party is the 'natural' government?
Typical entitlement and projection of her own failings both as a human and a politician.
No self reflection, just hubris and narcissism.
Bit like n garage.
Exactly. It's like their leadership contest rule saying each candidate needs a minimum of 100 MPs for support to stand (rather than e.g. a percentage), therefore assuming they will always have at least 200 seats. Whoops.
But they are just look at history
@@Blazedreptile The other problem. Driving backward into the future.
@@thecheesefactor 50s and before conservatism was brilliant for this country. Post-Thatcher tories lost their values. Going back to who they were would be a good thing imo
its amusing how Penny Morduant discusses rebuilding the country....without seeming to realise why it needs rebuilding.
Hey, we're all trying to work out who's responsible!
Brexit liars and Tory thieves.
I'll give Morduant some credit, she's far more magnanimous and gracious in defeat than Truss who, predictably, behaved like a toddler
Agreed. That was a decent exit speech.
Insulting to toddlers
Her speech was rather insulting once you realise its the equivalent of only accepting what you did was awful once you've been forced to stop
Agreed, that was one of the better concession speeches that I heard that night, and acknowledged that the Tory party had dug its own grave rather than casting around for other people to blame. I'm very happy to see her go, but credit to her for the way she accepted her fate.
As an American, I love seeing that, despite the intense differences between parties, there is still civility and self-reflecting accountability, even in defeat. Sunak actually wished Starmer well and that he hopes the nation will succeed. Such concepts are long dead on this side of the pond, where it's nothing but temper tantrums and calls for "revenge."
Who cares about grant shapps
So cruel of you.... Don't you know that when Grant Shapps loses his job, ten people lose theirs?
Grant Schnapps? Isn't that a disgusting free drink they use to lure teenagers into bars in Tenerife?! :D
@@czarekp3552 🤣🤣🤣
He was beaten by a Grand Chap.
Is that what he called himself in this election?
Am I wrong, but did "Penny" Mordaunt not sound like a landowner praising her good-hearted peasants? Salt of the earth and allthat, jeez
Precisely!
Spot on
A bit like Graham Chapmans King Arthur 'conversing' with the peasants in the mud field in 'Holy Grail' - time for a rewatch, methinks.......
Excellent, shapps the ultimate grifter has finally gone.🎉
Voters may well have remembered his dodgy website and false name period.
Exactly
Michael Green was elected as an independent though.
If that is his real name.
Chris Philp (bafflingly) remains an MP, though. Arguably the 'lickspittle's lickspittle'.
An end of an utterly miserable era, good riddance tories 👋🏻
Now onto 4 years of blaming labour for not being able to fix 14 years of destruction 🥳🥳
The fact that Baker, Mordent, Truss are all gone really is the cherry on the cake!!!
...and Jacob Rees Hercules Grytpype-Thynne!
... and Therese Coffey is out!!!
And Shapps.
And Rees -Mogg.
The look on Ress Mogg's face when he lost was priceless.
I bet he never dreamed that the deferential peasantry in his Somerset constituency would ever vote out a toff like him! I suppose it was because he didn't have Nanny along to help, as he did when he first tried to campaign for the Tories in 1997 when as a 27-year-old Tory pup, he tried to campaign in Glenrothes and Leven, driving around in a Rolls Royce and with Nanny there to hold his hand. Naturally, he lost.
Will Nigel do like when he was MEP, never attend one committee ? 😂😂😂
60% turnout, 4 out of 10 people didnt even vote, absolutely shocking
20% of the electorate voted for Labour. i.e. 4 people out of every 5 who could vote, DID NOT VOTE FOR THEM. What a mandate.
Because they are either stuck indoors hostage by diabolical non existent public transport or there is simply no party out there representative of their social and political outlook.
Then 4 out of 10 are in no position to complain.
@@cambs0181 Labour only got support from 20% of registered voters, but they got 63% of the seats. Sham democracy and utterly corrupt. Labour got 9.6m votes - less than Corbyn in 17 and 19 (12.8m and 10.2m respectively).
@@richardskidmore4710 To be fair, many of these were probably disaffected Tories, who could not bring themselves to vote for anyone else!? The Tories LOST this election, all by themselves!
Round of applause for Maya Ellis. Stood for her first election in the Ribble Valley for labour and won first ever Labour success in the Ribble valley.
Who ever thought Nigel Evans would leave unless it was in a pine box! Well done Maya
no mention of all corruption - stealing- and utter greed of the tory mps
and sex scandals
@@beaulieuc8910 yep and sex scandals but you will see the new Lab Gov. do it all the same.....they are just as bad.......remember Mandelson and his lied about his boyfriend and money..he stole / borrowed
I laughed when they described Honest Bob Jenrick as a "moderate". My god.
I'm sure that the piecemeal dismantling of the NHS was the biggest sin by the Conservatives. It is hugely popular in Great Britain and the thinly veiled contempt and disdain for it by the Tories, contributed to their downfall.
The People have spoken.
They have been slyly attempting a 'Death of 1000 cuts' for the NHS. I also notice that Tory newspapers are constantly trying to sow fear and distrust in the NHS by banner-headlining anything negative about the NHS but never focusing on the millions they treat successfully every day, under very difficult circumstances. We simply cannot afford to let it be lost and end up with the kind of US type system that people like Daniel Hannan and Nigel Farage seem to advocate.
The wait times graph was shown in a lot of the Labour advertising. It was very telling of the Tory neglect of the NHS. How many excess deaths before during and after the pandemic? They failed to act on Exercise Cygnus' recommendations because it was dissonant with their ongoing austerity and shrink-the-state project. Then Johnson disbanded the pandemic preparedness committee.
the NHS is a basket case with a level of administrative incompetence that buggers up almost everything. But just keep chucking money at lazy aministrators who are serially rude to patients
What "piecemeal dismantling"?
@@TheOwlsarewatching606and who are to blame for this state of the NHS? The Tories have hollowed out the NHS.
"Can they not make her (P. Mordent) a lady?"
I suppose so, in much the same way that you can make Rwanda a "safe country".
If they asked me at Closing Time to score Penny out of Two, I might just about give her One.
@@ArtyFactual_Intelligence Reeks of desperation....
You can blag people into thinking a country is safe but never make her out to be a lady, it just won't wash.
The Tories forgot the peasants had the power to flush them out finger crossed sunak loses his seat so he leaves the UK and moves back to the States the Tories have let us down I just hope that Labour invest in future voters and give them opportunities if they do this they will stay in power
Do you think Blackrock will give back all the stuff the tory and new Labour crooks have sold them at knock down prices since 1979?
Very True your comment. The Tory's ruled over us instead as peasant's and forgot we actually matter.
Happy Sunak kept his seat, let's see how long he can bear sitting on the back benches and serving his constituents before throwing it all in, triggering a by-election and sodding off to California to count his money.
@@andyastrand sunak can sit at the back keep his mouth shut and shove his ideas where the sun don't shine the Tories have ruined my boy's life with ther self serving ideas let's hope Labour look out for their future voter's and it might just keep the Tories out of power for twenty year's
"...so he leaves the UK"
Why? He is british and the UK is his home.
Rees Mogg going is my favourite. Ive never seen him ďo ANYTHING positive for the country. They make up nonsense jobs for him and he spends his time talking absolute ballacks. Constantly wrong, proved wrong, and mòves on to the next load of nonsense.
Back to nannys for a damn good thrashing
'Constantly wrong, proved wrong, and mòves on to the next load of nonsense'. A trait inherited from his dad, Mystic 'Mogadon' Mogg. What a waste of space the man is!
Please , the genuine manufacturers of non jobs are Labour their Union mates and Civil servants who can think of anything to keep them in work.
@@pmb9172 🥱 is that the best you’ve got? The 80s called - they want your nonsense about Unions ‘pulling strings’ back. 😂
@@pmb9172ok, what has Mogg done that's so great and worth the money?
Huge amount of tactical voting. Shows that where it matters voters are not as dumb as the media have you believe. The low Labour % due a lot to them voting for the lib dems. Tories will struggle to get a majority for decades if this tactical voting sticks.
The dumb ones all voted reform
Reform is second place in lots of costuancies now, so next time there could be a lot of Reform MPs
After the election was called Poll numbers show the Labour voters dropped 6% dramatically and the Lib Dem Vote rose dramatically by exactly the same amount.
FPTP works if you vote tactically. The Greens' successes are cases in point.
No way that reformed chicken nuggets would have got a single extra vote. They have peaked, just about at the maximum neo-fascist vote obtained by UKIP and Brexit. Parties.
@@JohnImrie or a split right wing as we saw yesterday
@@JohnImrieFartage won't last the next Parliamentary term (too much work for him) and without him, Reform will simply fold. Other Right Wing groups will pop-up, but will not be able to coordinate themselves.
Ohhh! So it’s now goodbye to lots of those mp’s we’ve come to know and loathe.
I do like the fact that UK politicians make gracious speeches when they lose.
Except for Liz Truss.
She's been on the Trump juice.
Some do.
Some wander off aimlessly with a bovine vacant look in their eyes (Truss).
Some launch into a vitriolic and threatening attack on the people, Labour, the media and everyone else they can blame for their own dismal failure (Fletcher, and I'm sure plenty of others)
Errrr …..Liz Truss behaved ungraciously
@@alisondening2207 Well, I suppose that is no surprise. Ad the exception proves the rule.
Penny Mordent still has not understood why she lost. Good news that she can no longer bid for leadership of the Conservative Party, as it would have only meant more of the same.
There's still Badenoch and Braverman.
@@nickbarton3191unfortunately
I don't wish to phrase this question in a rude way.
With regards to her losing, what does she need to understand?
@@georgehughes5703 She already understands, in her speech she expressed contrition that her party was out of touch with the electorate

Jacob Reece Mogg stormed off on his Penny Farthing after the result.
His butler was pushing it
@@msimms-lp5qwBack to 1700's
Mistake to assume that the Conservatives would have done so much better had Reform not been there that they might have achieved a hung parliament. The protest vote would simply have gone elsewhere.
After the last 14 years ,even that would be considered a success for the tories
I wonder if Lib Dems might have been the recipient of more of that protest vote in that scenario?
Nah, if the reform vote wasn't there i believe the Tories would have won about 190-220 seats.
@@IrateTurkey Nah.
I agree....they won those seats in 2019 because UKIP did not contest them. Reform split the right wing vote.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the friends families of failed Tory candidates ! Who will now spend more time in their repulsive company. 🤢🤢🤮
haha
The difference between Penny Mordaunt's dignified speech and Liz Truss's pathetic churlish actions is stark, I'm Labour but I can't believe these 2 are in the same party . Well done Penny 🎉
Agree, except for when she said the Tories were the natural party of Government. Such arrogance.
@theresabradley4716 unfortunately folk have been overwhelmed by information continually fad to the via right wing media! In days not too far distant it was Almost exclusively newspapers , made worse since most have been bought out by foreign billionaires, these men (they are & have been all men) are all about power & influence , add to this we had nearly 18 solid years of Tory governance, from 1979 & Thatcher coming in to 1997 & her successor with 7 years under his belt going out to Blair. The education during those awful years was dire, they ran our schools down, so much so in fact one of our masters in my Grammar school started up a tuck shop to buy books for we pupils as we had maybe one between 3 pupils, shocking. Where I'm going will this is, I had 2 very intelligent parents as were my mother's parents too ! I was brought up in a political household, was also taught about money and how a household should run , the education I received at school was the cherry on top. Many children didn't receive that level of understanding, they, sadly, got much of their knowledge from the likes of the Sun, subliminal messages were regularly placed on pages 2 or 3 , right next to the page 3 girls ! No wonder once they had families of their own they passed nothing of value on and, more often. negative information which we're seeing the 2nd and, sometimes, 3rd generation now who are clueless as to what politics are about other than to shout hard about jobs and houses being taken by 'illegal' immigrants (refugees to the more informed) Sadly, in the last 14 years this phenomena has gone from bad to worse ! Thank god change is coming 🙏
What was it about a lady with a sword being no basis for a government
The 'adopt a donkey' advert cut across Penny's speech with perfect timing.

Watching this as an American in Massachusetts, USA, and discovering that we stole even more place names from the British than I originally thought! We have 3 Bridgewaters near where I grew up here in Massachusetts: Bridgewater, East Bridgewater and West Bridgewater. On the grim side, I wish that they hasn't cut it off where they did since Ian was bringing up the issue of extreme far right people getting elected. We're in the middle of an attempted fascist takeover here in the U.S., which would end Democracy here.

It must be a worry :/
It's a beautiful day :)
I think she wrote two speeches so she was not confident of winning
If I was running for election I'd always prepare a losing speech. It's taunting the gods not to.

So, how did Count Binface do?
He thought he had it in the can, but sadly not.....
Came last unfortunately
@@JohnImriethere were 13 candidates in Richmond and Northallerton, Count Binface came 6th with 308 votes (his best count so far), the 7 candidates below him got about 700 between them. Turnout was 66%, down from 71.5% in 2019.
He,s the PM.
The Labour Party winning with only 34% of the vote share is also amazing, Corbyn had 5% more of the vote share in 2017.
Labour didn't campaign in safe seats, voter turnout dropped a lot in those, whereas Corbyn piled up votes in safe seats.
One was a foregone conclusion. Apathy will take its toll on voting numbers
@@Nemothewonderfish I think it´s more that the Tory vote has collapsed rather than there being enthusiasm for Labour. Indeed, if Reform hadn´t run, the Tories would have quite a few more seats (though Labour would probably win overall)
Also, it says what a travesty our electoral system is.
@@Minimmalmythicist 100% agreed. as much as I'm enjoying the result for the Tories, I think it's dangerous to think that this is in any way a healthy democratic result.
@SuperSupermanX1999 Not really people do not bother voting if they think it is a done deal. Labour supporters are much less likely to turn out as every paper, TV program and pod cast is saying it is already a done deal.
ALWAYS a distinct PLEASURE seeing/hearing Ian Hislop!! a TRUE measure of his knowledge & insight ALWAYS welcome! SO pleased he enjoyed the election night as much as I did!!....the Coffey seat REPLACED by a GREEN MP....MAGIC!!
Labour downed the coffee.
He isn't that smart is he, he said Reform wouldn't win any seats even on 18% of the vote share, then Reform won 5 seats on 14% and came second in 98 seats.
Mordaunt can now go play 'dress ups' on TV....oh
Do you know, I think that's the first time I've ever seen Penny Mordaunt smile..?
Think I blinked and missed that... 😐
I love the Clacton joke!😂😂😂😂😂😂
his name is "farage"
Reform had influence over the Tory government but have facilitated Labour winning and will have no influence over them at all.
"Therese Coffey just lost her seat to the Greens!" "Well that's not surprising, she was Environment Secretary!" - well that made me laugh!!!
She actually lost to Labour
Just think by the end of Labour's term, there will be 5 million new voters to ensure they get in again.
Where do you get that figure from
Young people don’t vote.
Wanna bet.
Those Tories who shared Reform's popularist views seem to have fared better than the 'one nation' Conservatives. The future of the Conservative party that Thatcher would have recognised is very much in doubt as a vicious round of in-fighting seems very much on the cards now. A theme tune for this? "Things can only get Bitter!"
Did you stay up all night...thinking up that funny
🎶 "You stick your left knife in, and your left knife out, in, out, in, out, shake it all about..."
I'm glad Penny and Therese are now free to commence their Dancing and Sword Carrying National Feel Good Tour.
It'll be just like the Olympic Flame parade from the good old days.
why would anyone vote on Gaza there is literally nothing a UK government can do about it and Labour's stance is a 2 state solution and a permanent ceasefire?
If that's the case, why are the Labour Party taking a partisan stance to the conflict in Gaza favouring the Zionists with supplies of WDMs.
Condemning war crimes akin to genocide? Take a political stance on the subject and against the state of Isreal on an international front? Not abstaining for United Nations votes?
Blows my mind. Some people are utterly pathetic
Gaza can sort out their OWN problems 😮
The Palestinian authorities want neither a two state solution, nor a permanent ceasefire.
Welfare system reformed by Tories will take good care of them ....
I hope they have v. large mortgages.🤨
There but for the grace of blightey...
It all feels like a fever dream but I'm fairly sure they introduced a larger financial payout to MPs who have lost their seats. So they have plenty of welfare for Tory MPs who don't have a job and don't feel like working.
Coffee flushed 😂
If only the Government listened to the whole of the UK not just their voter base..... not going to happen

Hislop is the star
Tories deserted the business & middle class with IR35 reforms, the most un-conservative thing they have ever done, that and stealth taxes, could even be seen as a vendetta against small businesses. They never seemed to achieve anything when Boris left and Brexit is something we will all blame the conservatives for. I was a true blue but because I did not know what the conservatives stood for anymore found it hard to choose with the ballet paper in front of me. I knew they would lose at that point. Time to go on a spending spree with labour in charge which will be good for social services. Farage's success can be compared with the Boris factor, he has the ear of the working man and suspect the next election might see him in if he can get rid of his right wing racist image.

So depressed Hunt Cleverley, and Philp are still here
I live in Croydon South: tell me about it!
Mordaunt looked relieved. She has been looking stressed and annoyed in PMQs for several months - she knew it was possible.
I was surprised more MPs did not cross the floor a few months ago. I thought she might.
True, for a long time now she just looked like she never wanted to be there
I know where I'm watching my election coverage next time. Anyone else see the shitshow that Kunsberg hosted on BBC1?
schadenfreude was the reason to watch Laura K.
Watching Kuenssberg angrily chomp down on a biro every time Labour won a seat was comedy gold.
Its a shame that these too posh for politics are so full of sarcasm and ego, not surprising they are not in touch with the people. A fair poll would have brought the result that people really wanted. They belong in the playground.
Fair poll? If you mean PR the public voted heavily against in 2011...

I always enjoy hearing Ian Hislop's political analysis.
May this beating for the Tories be a real lesson that they treated the voter with contempt and Moredant can forget “ I just can’t wait to be king.”
Did having to take ID to vote have an effect on numbers of people voteing or has this fact been forgotten ?
Yes! 💯
Why shouldn,t you prove your I.D. unless you have something to hide?
@@grahamwood9428 Something to hide because we are all guilty, same old boring answer. I haven't had too prove who i am to vote up to now and i have voted regularly for over 40 years.

@@jeremyhares979 exactly, so a lot of people couldn't vote. Not because they have something to hide.
19:18. That's also a big problem, the tories don't have any quality front- or backbenchers left.
Any left? They didn't have any before this electipn, Boris kicked them out for opposing Brextremism.
Happy Hislop. Tax him
The story is the anti-tory vote and whilst it may seem that Reform made them lose, but if there was no Reform party, wouldn't the anti-tories have gone to Labour? Or some to the BNP? Ha!
'The natural party of government ', what an interesting phrase.
That’s because they think that they are better than the rest of us peasant’s !
Happy 4th of July independence from the Tories day.
Terese Coffey will have plenty time on her hands over the next few years for coffee breaks she cannot do any further damage to our economy.
Just a thought, whats really remarkable is the low turn out. Labours "landslide" was with only 34% of the public. That tells me, that an awful lot people are not convinced by any of them!
It also shows what a joke first past the post is. After all the hype, 2/3rds of the public didn't vote, the distrust and dislike of political parties seems to me paramount.
A lot of us who actually voted aren't convinced by any of them. Voting tactically to gain some breathing space was the only option.
Maybe four years of leftist-right Labour followed by four of far-right Reform will wake the sleeping masses. I'm seriously looking into emigration as a political refugee. Bolivia looks promising. Even walking the Darian gap southward has an appeal that the future of Britain can't compete with.
There has been well over a year where labour were predicted to win and to win handsomely.
That really does reduce turnout for supporters of 'the ones who are definitely going to win' since.....well, they were so likely to.
40% of the electorate didn't vote, 2/3rd of 2024 votes cast weren't for Labour. Angry extremists always turn out, otherwise you might not turn out if you think your vote won't count, whether your party is likely to lose hard or win comfortably.

When Sunak is shown attending the Americans' RNC Convention on 15 July, I REALLY want to see Ian's reaction.
If reformUK had stood down, its voters wouldn't have all gone for the torries. Many, probably most, voted for reformUK because they could not support the torries anymore. I think many would have stayed at home and a few voted libdem or some independant.
A lot of people stayed at home anyway - overall turnout 60%, second-lowest in fifty years. A lot (maybe the majority) of those who stayed at home were people who voted Conservative in the past. What these people will do at the next election is a fascinating question.
I guess Liz Truss will have to get her pork action on the open market now.
Filth.
Don't forget the [British] cheese.

I hear Cameron's diary is open to some pork action now.
Filth.

Mordaunt was posited as the next leader of the Conservatives lol. How the mighty fall...
Now you're stuck with one of the 'Shut the Door Behind You' second gens.
Neither Mordant or Truss wore a rossette
They knew the game was up.

Mordaunt has not been a happy camper for a long time. I think she saw the writing on the wall.
Liz didn’t even want to get up onto the stage let alone wear a rosette 😂😂
Mordaunt was probably worried it would detract from her outfit, and Truss is so dense she probably pinned it to her backside by mistake.
More of the knitting lady please
Auction it for charity.
In order to do right of centre politics in the UK, we have to reverse the Blair/Brown reforms of 1997-2010. Cameron was too in love with Blair. We must start with Blair's american Supreme Court, and move on to all Blair's single-issue committees which sit above Parliament and whose rulings squeeze the value of your vote and of mine.

People swing like a weather vane.The reporters on here are more like comedians.laughing and joking like school kids Not a very serious lot.
It's Ian Hislop! He is a political comedian and editor/author.
Davey combined two things that other nominees failed to do. He appeared human and he had policies and not just slogans.
Kind of weird that they use terms like "battlegrounds" and "losing friends". They've stood on a stage in a leisure centre and someone read out some numbers. They're not in a crucible of war.
"Battleground" has been a standard metaphor for several decades. It was initially used by the press.
Why is he dressed like he’s going to a pantomime? Oh wait… it’s British politics 🤦♂️
