Rain Dog - My mum is 87, I applied for her postal vote
for what is realistically probably her last general election.
The form never arrived, lost in the mail.
The replacement arrived a day after the closing date.
A proxy vote alternative was too impractical for our family circumstances.

So Labour lost her one vote.

However she's been voting Labour since the early 1950s,
and they've never won anything anyway round here in the South West.
Our votes never make any difference,
even when in the past we resorted to voting tactically for the treacherous Liberals...


So now the North can join us in the wasted vote club.
But hopefully not for too many years...

I never expected Labour to win this election.
I hoped they might...
But didn't expect them to do this badly.

Let's hope the party learns from it's disastrous performance...???
