Dont you mean just the 1 in 5 of the people who are eligable to vote that actually voted for Labour.

Yes 1 in 5. Thats not most of the people is it. In fact its a very small proportion.

Pete, no-one's implying that it's you.

When Rugby players have a scrum, you are not the topic under discussion, you know.

You wind people up, but to my knowledge you're not a typical troll.

A person who doesn't agree with you ISN'T a Troll!!

Alternative views are a boon to any place where topics are discussed

So NewLabour and PSl do have the same sentiments. That is to say that is is all ok to lie, cheat and use spin to achieve your personal ambitions.

Just like the last 8 years!

Pete,

Actually they didnt, in England more people voted for the Conservatives than the Labour party.

So only Wales and Scotland kept them in power.

Yes Labour would be stuffed if it wasnt for the Welsh and Scots even though they wanted devolution for these two countries, they couldnt do without their vote.

What is even more interesting is to look at the physical distribution of the vote. Basically Labour hold some inner city areas but the bulk of the land area in the UK is held by someone else. We are in an era which is seeing the development of a rural-urban divide that will end in tears as the administration become more focused upon the needs of some "socially disadvantaged" chav in the city whilst ignoring the plight of the rural population.

Strange, I thought the Election was a UK Election - not just an English Election???

And in the UK Election, the Labour vote was greater than the Tory vote.

If there was an English Election - the Labour party would STILL get in due to the fact that no-one outside the confines of ScoobyNet wanted the Tories to win!!

Representative of who?? Certainly NOT the populace!!

SN consists of PetrolHeads and the Upper Middle Classes .... a few Chavs are now being seen and that helps to skew the Tory Support/anti Labour feeling.

Read what I posted you senile old git.

That the Conservatives polled more votes in England than did Labour. That is a fact.

You frigging idiot

Labour would have targetted the seats they needed to and stuffed the Tories all over again!!

Remember when it came to a choice, Tories OR Labour ..... the Tory vote disappeared

But Pete, they did target the marginals,in fact they put in a massive effort in this area. Then they lost them to the Tories.
