Looks like Labour and the Greens will have to work together.

And rightly so too. If anything the Greens are left of Labour, if not similar policies in many areas. If they sort themselves out, no reason they shouldn't be able to have a real mandate to run the council together with 39 seats between them. Hopefully the city will benefit from firm collaborative coalition politics.

Oh good. I was worried I had missed it

Patience is a virtue, as a nation we’ve waited over 40 years for freedom, I think a bonfire of the Tories on 23rd of May will see the resistance complete.
Interesting times.

Dunno what exactly that's supposed to mean but as usual comes across as passive aggressive and woefully uninformed.

And that is supposed to be erudite and sensible?!

Whatever happens it should give us all a good laugh.

Beeb have Tories down 1305 seats (around 26.5% of those defended have been lost)
That is an astonishing fail.

Apparently Chris Grayling thinks the Tories have won most seats

So is that the new date when you will take to the streets or will you be 'on your way' again?

Comparatively, dear boy.

Because they have, possibly?

Desperately unlucky for NSC's very own [MENTION=2854]John Boy[/MENTION] who gained the highest non-Tory number of votes. Take a bow son

Yes, I was looking to see what the exact numbers of votes that were being recounted and realised who it was. Very unlucky indeed.

You wouldn't think that from the BBC coverage , according to them it's neck and neck between the Tories and Labour over who has lost most seats

The latest is Tories -1189, Labour -65.

Reported as equal defeat for both parties.

Hull was one council where spoilt papers got the most votes in a number of seats, mirrored across the industrial North.
Interesting times.

You can prove anything with facts.

What will you do if the revolution starts whilst you’re on your annual Med Cruise?

Nah, austerity and the shite brexit sterling rate against the dollar means cruising is now too fecking expensive in school holidays.

Corfu for two weeks in august this time
