TDF just shades it in my book. This year at least, yesterday's finish was hard won and will remain in the record books for a long time. :bow: Both several places above F1. Which has at last made a return to my top 10.

I suspect you're not looking forward to tomorrow's result and would prefer to hear nothing about it but IMO its the most important day in our country's history since that disasterous day in 2016. At long, long last the tide seems about to turn.
Really looking forward to it. We desperately need a change. No response required.
[/quote]we were looking to move house in the next few months but with the potential for council tax revaluations and a tax on equity from house sales we have put it on hold to see what happens over the next six months. We may not be able to afford what we were looking at.

I'm sorry you feel like that Those in power (left and right) have often made things better. It does make a difference.
Labour did some good stuff last time and I'm hoping they can do so again. For whatever reason the Tories have failed to improve peoples lives these last 14 years and voters, having given them several chances, have rightly abandoned them

Yes, indeed.pvr said:
The biggest story seems to be the massive amount of votes for the Reform party. Millions of 'protest' votes which are ultimately wasted, as no-one in the two main parties will care. You get nothing for being second without winning any seats.
Very low turn out, obscure parties getting loads of votes, is a sign the UK is not happy. Starmer won't care, as he now has 'power' which is all that matters to them!
It's a sad day for the UK (again) IMO.
Should I wait for them to take all my money from me, or should I pre-empt it and just burn it? Difficult one. :roll:

Is the Tory Party still a party? isn't it more accurate to call it a gathering now
Seriously though, personal greed is not how a healthy society thrives. Lazy labelling which thankfully doesn't resonate with the majority of people anymore. Talking of health, it's 76 years to the day since Labour founded the health service - something, I think we can agree, we can all be grateful for.
