Seems like Labour won West Lancashire by election yesterday.
31 % turn out. Disgraceful.

The locals got Brexit. Back to being uninterested in politics

That is sadly about par for local elections. The big thing about this result though is the 10% swing from Tory to Labour. Hopefully a sign of things to come

wait until the Tories bring out identity cards, where you can't vote without one. It's the only way they will stay in power, a low turn out means a Tory victory.

The vast majority are not as interested in politics as this forum might indicate

Not that surprising I'm afraid. Cold day and the result a foregone conclusion.

Labour, Tory, all in bed together. This isn't football, you aren't supposed to stick with them because they were cool in the 80s ffs.

Anyone with any political knowledge would have known Corbyn was toast in the Labour party the moment he fell into Starmers rather very obvious trap. The only democracy that matters is the ballot box in a General Election. Which Corbyn is still free to stand in, nothing is stopping him. If the people in his constituency like him? Then he should win fairly easily. If they've been voting for him purely because he was the Labour candidate, then well he's probably going to lose.

No one is bigger than the Labour Party and it's about time Corbyn and supprters reflected on that. The task at hand is to defeat the Tories and repair as much of the damage they've caused as a possible.

Corbyn had his chance and blew it. Time to move on.
