Scotland (6 seats) and NI (3 seats) still to declare seat numbers FORMALLY

Current counts suggest 3 SNP, 1LD, 1BXP, 1 CON, 1DUP, 1SF, 1 SDLP.

So add 6 more Remain seats, 1 more No Deal, 2 Hard Brexit to totals below.
LAB ?

29 Remain. 29 No Deal
LAB 10 seats CONS. 4 seats.
Results without SCOTLAND + NI SEATS.

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
SCOTLAND . (NI ...THE SF and DUP seat seem assured. 3rd seat most likely SDLP but ALLIANCE a runner. - both Remain /PV)

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…
Worth remembering the prediction from 7pm last night from. @britainelects

Out by quite a margin esp BXP (+5) , Lab (-4)Tory (-6)& Greens (+3).
LD & SNP +1 each,.

Of course, had CHUK vote gone to LD in NE & Wales that would me at least 2 more REMAIN SEATS.
As for our place in the EU Parl.

Well. ALDE (aligned to the Lib Dems) won most seats.

Meanwhile.

Worst result for LP or Tories ever.

And per Jon Hannah:

UKIP + Tory 2014 - 43 Seats

UKIP + Brexit Party + Tory 2019 - 33 Seats

Pretty catastrophic night for Brexit
BBC has nominally split the LP and Tory vote share into proportion remain v leave.

NI (2 Remain v 1 leave seat likely) still to be included.
Some more detail on Scotland.

Happily the Lib Dems exceeded the Tories in May’s constituency in Windsor and Maidenhead

They also exceeded Labour in Corbyn’s Constituency.

This is an interesting set of results.

How outrageous. She admits that FFP3 works .., factory testing, but asserts HCW should not be given them because - apparently- they cannot be trusted to wear them properly.

I would point straight to the leadership & IPC training if that’s the case. A massive comms fail as here
I can quite see that if you supply utterly careless leadership and comms like that, that staff would NOT do well. Zero sense of responsibility. Zero sense of remorse. And nosocomial transmission was MUCH higher in some trusts than others. For a reason
Two hospitals. Two different approaches to masks. Two different outcomes for the medical personnel putting themselves at risk for us.. & the high protection staff also protect us.

Which is why, SHE wore FFP3 masks dealing with infectious diseases.

What is “Deliverism”?

It is the argument that simply “governing well using all levers available”, as Stoller put it in the first half of Biden’s presidency, does not necessarily translate into popular gratitude or political success.”
“They cite the Inflation Reduction Act, the president’s $500 billion green energy strategy, the American Rescue Plan Act, which helped to lift 2mill children out of poverty, & the US’s generally dynamic economy as achievements to which the public responded with a collective shrug
Politico described Stoller’s diagnosis as “good policies no one understands”. Obamacare had similar results.”

There has to be a continual storytelling which connects to people’s day to day realities.

Their ability to do the weekly shop without grinding anxiety.
Potholes!

I’ve been thinking about the broad but shallow majority Labour has and what it means

1/. It is the result not just of a profound disgust at Tory political behaviour even from their own traditional voters but also of a highly intelligent and organised electoral strategy.
2/. It is pretty obvious that Lab and Lib Dem struck some sort of non aggression pact in a large number of seats to their mutual benefit. It took a lot of the poison out of tactical voting that we saw in 2017 and in 2019 in particular. So did the change in leadership.
As @Samfr pointed out : the seats where there was no such non-aggression pact and the opposition was split, this resulted in saving MPs such as Braverman & Mel Stride

In just 42 seats in England and Wales was the Tory vote bigger than the combined Lab/Lib one.

That’s not the brilliant deal it sounds.

They don’t tax your state pension. But your state pension is added to any other income you have and that IS taxed…(basically treating your state pension as part of your normal personal allowance (PA). Not enough to meet the PA limit.
So the personal allowance is £12570.

7 out of 8 pensioners do not GET the full new state pension. Most are on the old state pension (or less) of c £8,800 pa.

So that arrives untaxed.
However that does accrue so that if you have any additional income once it reaches the £12,570 threshold (inc your state pension) THOSE income sources as taxed as normal…as they should be

Even on the NEW full state pension you are way off the PA still.

We’re just pausing over tea to discuss the location of the DC solar panel isolation switches as the loft is not a good location for me up a wobbly loft ladder and very awkward loft hatch

They are going in the spare bedroom cupboard so easy for me to get to
The team is absolutely lovely.

Tomorrow the roofing panel team will arrive: James and Rhys who have both been doing this for 4 years.

James is ex military

Rob and Andy (electricians and survey team)

Geoff (sales consultant) has been in solar for years.
