Gavin Barwell ousted in election and parachutes straight back in as Chief of Staff a slap in the face to voters.
Really annoyed because Barwell came across a centrist comptent person to me when I heard him speak 2 weeks ago. Looks like he is as career politician, happy to get behind any old crap. Glad I was one of the 5000 who get rid of him in Croydon.

Let's call what it is, this is bad for the country. A damaged prime minister propped by a bunch of loonies going into negotiations with the EU for the future of the country. We are absolutely worse off short term than a Tory landslide, if you look at things from any sensible political view.

Can only be student's turning up surely? Doesn't fit with any pattern with other pure blue traditional tory seats.
Obviously not all but I do believe they are where students of University of Warwick and Kent are based. Tuition fees policy has definitely cut through as a policy. I agree with doing away with tuition fees but by cutting university places back to the what we had in the 70's.

I've seen on BBC, someone say this could lead to another election?
Anyone care to explain in what circumstances this could be a possibility?
Tories can't form a government that can get any important policies through which leads to chaos. Another election only way to get through as labour will be invited to form a government and they can't do it either. So solution is another election, happened in 1974

This is the case in London, labour posters out number every other party by about 10 to 1 and I would say lib dems would be 2nd. Mainly posters in windows, so it will be the homeowner who put them there. I don't think there is anything to be drawn from this, labour supporters have always been forthcoming with their support and I think Corbyn has only increased this. Those who support him are very vocal about it.
