Not very democratic
When the blame game, back biting nastiness etc. has settled, perhaps this election will be recognised for what it was, a second referendum on Brexit.
Corbyn could have offered everyone a pot of gold to no avail.
Nothing else mattered. Years of austerity, rising use of food banks and homelessness, NHS in dire straights, cuts to mental health etc.
The blinkers were firmly on it and all that could been seen was Brexit.
Interesting to see that the Tories took 44 per cent of the vote, which gave them their big majority, meaning that 56 per cent voted against. Not very democratic!
We need proportional representation.
Unfortunately we have to live with it now and I hope that Johnson doesn’t have a lapse of memory and forgets all those promises he made. But I won’t be holding my breath.
