#ge2024 — Public Fediverse posts

In a bit of local General Election news the very safe Tory seat of Hertford and Stortford has manged to shake off its leech of an absentee MP.

I have no idea what our new young Labour MP can achieve but at least he can find his way around the constituency without a local guide 🙄

Looks like election night on #STV will be the UK network coverage rather than a fully local #Scottish version. End of an era. No more results with #BernardPonsonby or #BrianTaylor down to his braces on #BBCScotland. It'll be different for sure. Think the #Channel4 lineup sounds like fun.

Britain is skint.
Tory and Labour don't have the ideas or courage to change it.
Scotland and Wales have alternatives.
