Rotherham Results

Change UK - The Independent Group 1400
Conservative and Unionist Party 3208
English Democrats 739
Green Party 5471
Labour Party 11373
Liberal Democrats 5478
The Brexit Party 26951
The Yorkshire Party 3719
UK Independence Party (UKIP) 3902

I think JC gets the message. If he does not get it from those results then he is thick.

Original referendum results in Rotherham

The total number of ballot papers counted was 137,470
The number of votes cast in favour of REMAIN was 44,115
The number of votes cast in favour of LEAVE was 93,272

He’s not thick (arguable) and he’s seen the results, but in my view he’s a glove puppet with somebody else’s hand working him.

In the past that hand used to be the Trade Unions...but now?

BFC have more season ticket holders than Labour voters these days .

If those results around my way aren't chiming with the Labour Party then the game is really up .

Once people vote differently you'd better have something substantial to get them back .

May as well split from London and the south in a Yugoslavia kind of way but without the bloodshed of course .

Feck all in my opinion that connects us anymore if it ever really did .

Why even try to mend a country that is so irretrievably divided ?

Absolutely no point at all .

Let's make life easy for MP's shall we , feck off and serve your paymasters and we'll elect those who get us up here in brexit land .

It’s a shame though, what a chance missed.

The tories in deep division, backlash from austerity and the country ripe for a sensible Labour administration

A brexit vote heavily influenced by the northern leave voters.

The big chance, open goal, get off the fence and follow the northern vote to leave the EU.

But Labour missed a sitter and we’ve still got Boris, Gove, the one that looks like an Asian uncle fester, and various blue suited power dressed ‘ladies”

Have to agree with you Grist especially as the Labour manifesto was to pull out of the EU in the last election!

Eh? Labour policy still is to honour the result, as it was in 2017.

Grand idea except we would not have the tax revenue to pay for benefits, pensions, schools and hospitals.

Yes I know but the country do not want freedom of movement which the Labour party will not drop from their manifesto hence why they will not win a GE.

Course not, more immigrants means more voters for them.
