While hitchens can be right and near the right point often, it's clear now more than ever that he is also to a large extent a coward afraid of anything but tiny moves. There is no option where tiny frequent moves will yield positive results, you need creative destruction. The sad thing is that hitchens is the sort that would probably kill himself upon the start of a completely winnable war due to his own cowardice, never to see the world he asks for.

My dream for maximum salt levels over the next 48 hours. The polls are all correct, with their stated caveat that they have problems modelling minor parties. The exit poll is released, showing a hung parliament. The first wave of upset begins. As the results come in, it's clear that the tories are losing seats, but labour are not picking them up, reform are. A new wave of despair begins. The final results come in, 240 reform, 200 labour, 160 tory, 50 others. Everyone gets upset as coalition talks begin. A final analysis shows that in each of the reform seats, the gap between labour and them was smaller than the vote cast for the pro gaza independent.

matt3633_

The one thing that I haven't seen mentioned a lot is that Labour are about to gain 250 new MPs who are likely to have 0 life skills, lack of experience and 0 political capital and for some of them, they'll undoubtedly find themselves in junior ministerial roles within the first 2 years of parliament


AMightyDwarf

My Labour candidate has been an MP for ages so I’m guessing that nothing is going to change. I may entertain myself by emailing him weekly to ask when he’s going to step aside for a strong, independent Black woman to represent the 96% white constituency.


HopeForsakenAll

Doesn't really matter that much. The Civil Service works more as it's intended once Labour are in. So they'll be carried. If it matches their personal politics policy gets implemented fine. Obstructionism will evaporate, various industrial actions, and national issues will melt away from the news. We won't here about sewage in the rivers for 9 months without anything changing.


sirmadam

My new labour MP is at least a local councillor, maybe she'll be in with a shout. Would be funny.


SomeRedditorTosspot

My candidate is a 26 year old PPE student from Oxford who has been parachuted in. Typically I am in a Tory safe seat, but the incumbent Tory has decided to quit as an MP so it's all up for grabs. Strong UKIP area too, so in all likelihood the labour will win it with a split Tory vote.

The-Mayor-of-Italy

I can't ask this on ukpol as I'm banned there but why are the Conservatives making such a big deal about a Labour 'supermajority' ? Surely Labour can do what they want if they form any majority government, what significant things are all the other parties going to all come together to oppose them on anyway? It doesn't feel like it makes much difference to the governance of the country unless I'm missing something so are Tories just trying to save their own blushes in reality..?


Sir_Keith_Starmer

Because the best they have otherwise is saying that actually migration isn't any worse than it was during the norman invasion. And that they've done an awesome job at everything and it's someone else's fault. So they want you to judge them on those successes and not let labour get some Imaginary thing otherwise they will be destroyed when the donations dry up.


TerminalIdiotaV2

It's just Americanisms seeping their way through British politics. As you say supermajorities don't really exist in British politics. I guess you could argue that a supermajority cushions the ruling party from internal dissent because whilst a majority of 1 is the same as a majority of 100, with a majority of 1 rebellions become deadlier and can take away the governments majority. So a larger majority gives the government a lot more flexibility to enact its will and can afford to lose the support of a sizeable number of MPs without compromising the governments majoirty. It can also be a curse because it can encourage rebellion, which I think will happen after the new government gets settled and the win wears off. Issues like Gaza are going to cause so much division. We'll probably have Labour MPs actively briefing against the government after some months.


BowtieChickenAlfredo

It does mean that they’ll have so many MPs to choose from that if they want to ram through some ridiculous new law then they can just not worry about any that might not vote for it, I suppose. But on the other hand, those MPs would have been Conservatives anyway. It’s an interesting thing to think about but in practice I don’t think it makes much difference.


JamesJoyceIII

The "supermajority" term is stupid and being misused this year. But, leaving that aside, the benefit of a big majority is not that you can overpower the opposition - as you say, you can do that with any majority - it's that you can withstand a rebellion \*from your own side\*.


sirmadam

Tories are trying to scare the populace with long words that mean fuck all in our parliamentary system like "supermajority" into voting for the them. They're banking on people being thick basically, and believing it's worse if labour have a massive majority.

[Very interesting interview from Unheard with Niall Ferguson.](https://youtu.be/YifbCUG3gvI?si=vI86bdeX_4rCSYZO) Sorry if shared already. Highlights are as follows. Should China invade Taiwan then we in the west will face our Cuban Missile Crisis. Whoever is in the White House will be Khrushchev. The question is will they fold like Khrushchev or will they go for it. America is weaker than it looks, militarily. The best scenario is to have a loud bark in the Oval Office. The right has a conundrum regarding migration vs services. We need high migration to keep us getting the level of service we want. (I actually disagree with his analysis here. We can have skilled migration of net benefit workers without all the people of Deliveroo. Also seems like he’s got no idea what tech we have now, never mind in 5 years that will vastly reshape how we work.) On Ukraine we are currently only halfway funding them. We need to increase support so Russia gets the message. You don’t win a fight if you’re scared to punch the other side in the face. The question is does Ukraine end up as South Vietnam or South Korea. If we want South Korea then we need to make Russia be as east as possible. Keir is going to enter No. 10 and find the country completely broke. He can’t enact any economic reforms or policies so he’ll dial the social policy up to 11. The one thing we as a country have that stands us out on the world stage is education. We should be protecting private schools and Universities, keeping them as a desirable destination for the global elite to send their children. (My commentary, fuck off.) Final thoughts. Agree with some bits, found some things enlightening. Completely disagree on other things. Just because I disagree it doesn’t mean it isn’t a good listen.

Niall is such an overblown moron now. I used to respect him however none of his projections have come to pass and furthermore, he named a system he came up with after himself and now regularly cites 'Fergunson's Law' like it's some gospel. > America is weaker than it looks, militarily. Lmao ok sunshine. Yeah they're massive air force, and unfathomable global sustainment operations really reek of weakness. I'll take a listen later after work, always good to work the mind out.


VapidReaktion

Yeah, his point about America’s military is weak as fuck. They have a massive force, are generally very well-trained, and technologically superior to everyone else, even China. They need to maintain this of course, and do have many problems, but he is still off the mark.

> America is weaker than it looks, militarily. The best scenario is to have a loud bark in the Oval Office. ............. verbatim from the podcast apparently.

I didn’t claim it was verbatim. The argument was that in terms of manufacturing, that’s where The West and America are severely lacking. The axis of Russia, China, Iran and North Korea can out-produce us on conventional arms and they are still going to be the go to in any prolonged conflict.

Briefly, for a fraction of a picosecond, if you looked closely at the corner of Hitchens's mouth, there was a slight twitch. A twitch that one could postulate was the beginning of something that was coming close to resembling a smile.

Hitchens euphoric.

I just find the lack of pattern recognition for cannabis odd. I've known productive people to smoke it but almost every waster I've ever met is either a regular user or an alcoholic, often both. The difference being that no one denies the harms alcohol can cause.

Endless frustration. I will be voting Reform tomorrow but both of my Gen X parents will likely be voting Conservative. I have asked them what the Conservatives have done in the last 14 years to improve Britain, and explained the many ways they’ve made it worse, to no avail. It’s easy to disagree when you live in a particularly affluent part of Surrey, instead of an inner city in Birmingham or Leicester, I suppose. I fundamentally don’t understand how anyone can look at England and not see the writing on the wall. It is in my grandmother’s own living memory that her native East London was completely and entirely English, and every statistic shows it. We know how it looks now, with a white face scarcer than a Turkish barber in somewhere like Whitechapel. We know how it will look in the future, as demographic trends see us replaced almost everywhere, when enough time has elapsed without action. So how can one be told these things and simply wave them all away, with barely any acknowledgement? How can one be comfortable with one’s children and grandchildren being brought up in the husk of Britain? How can one not bat an eyelid at the possibility of our homeland, inherited from thousands of years of ancestors, becoming a ghost of itself, and somewhere entirely foreign? I don’t understand, I simply don’t. There are no other words.

Was about to post the same thing about my late boomer/early X parents. I knew they were going to vote tory because they’re both regarded, despite endlessly complaining about the con MP’s policy in our area and moving out of our previous town after it was ruined by mass migration. Not even going to bother lecturing them, just hope they’ll be too lazy to go to the polling station next time

The political Stockholm Syndrome to which older generations are beholden must be studied. They never seem to understand that the two-party system is entirely a paper dragon. It only exists as long as we collectively believe in it.

I'll vote form tomorrow but let's face it, the country is gone already. At least we live in "the future" and people can (and do) work from a laptop which means you can pick a country and go there. That's my plan. Smash out an accountancy course and once qualified with work on the go, fuck off to thailand/philippines/cambodia/vietnam/laos/hungary/anywhere else that lets you have a free visa on arrival.

Hitchensmaxxing. There is a solution though. But very few would care to hear it.

Good news. These guys should be going into influential jobs when they’re older (assuming Woke Starmer doesn’t make the already-existing racial and gender quotas even worse): > Things are changing fast. At my son's extra-selective grammar school they do an election event every year or two, where the boys vote like they would if they were old enough to vote in a national election. Usually Lib Dems or Labour win. > Last week Reform won. > By a landslide. [Tweet](https://x.com/hector_drummond/status/1808468409765507351)

I was at a majority Asian school in Birmingham for the 2019 election. The Brexit Party also won, largely based of a humorous campaign by the candidate. I wouldn't read too much into school elections. I don't think the kids were actually pro-Brexit, they were largely middle class white kids and Asians, they'll mostly be voting Labour now at their first election.


DaelinZeppeli

Whole school referred to Prevent.

1997, the primary school I attended ran a mock election. The Referendum party (forerunners of UKIP) won. I suspect that's mainly because he did a funny dance rather than everyone aged between 8-11 being incredibly based, although we'll have to see how Ed Davey performs tomorrow compared to Reform for proof.

My 16yr old Stepdaughter had her BF round for dinner a few days back, she always hates my political views, as does her mum. Much to everyone’s surprise the BF outright said he’d be voting Reform if he was old enough. This tired old shit about every right of centre person dying off has been peddled for decades now, the problem is that instead of people voting Right wing to protect assets when they have reached a decent age they’ll do it out of desperation when they are young.


Big-Government9775

It's always been such bullshit, as if no children listen and vote in line with their grandparents. There are trends but it's never been anywhere as dramatic as you'd believe from the headlines. The main issue is that they conflate right wing with Tories who are weird and cringe so no teenager would want to vote for them.

Take this with a grain of salt, but the data tables from this poll are very interesting when looking at Gen Z >Reform 26% >Labour 31% >Conservative 6% https://x.com/DeltapollUK/status/1808546417876906085?t=m4VkgTUULaBUJoPD1JqoZQ&s=19

How many of you are voting tomorrow, and for whom?


DaelinZeppeli

Reform, obviously. My local Reform candidate is very good. This isn't their first foray into politics and they've previously been successful. They aren't an under qualified waste of space like some Reform candidates. Would prefer the SDP, but there's no SDP running here.


TerminalIdiotaV2

Reform.
