Local Elections : MSM Nonsense – and the real message for politiciansWho won, who lost, was it Remain, Leave, blah, blah. Let’s not beat about the bush here and say what this really means and not the garbage that the mainstream media would have you believe.
Change UK changed nothing at all and the electorate ignored them.
The Tories were hammered. Let’s not forget that in the 23 months since the last general election 47 ministers have resigned or been sacked from Theresa May’s government. That’s just about two a month.

The Lib Dems and Greens did really well as a protest vote, but don’t have what it takes to gain enough to lead anything.
The Independents that stood were the biggest winners but will translate into nothing at all at a general election.
The Tory state media has attempted to portray the results as a crisis for Labour but haven’t actually worked out why. It is, but nothing compared to the drubbing the Tories themselves got. The last time something like this happened, they were thrown out of power for well over a decade and even then had to form a coalition to get back into No 10. Their performance since has been a national disaster.
As for Labour, the political editor of TalkRadio quite rightly points out that – “Jeremy Corbyn is set to have lost more than 400 Labour councillors in four years. That may make him the worst performing leader of the opposition at local elections for 40 years.” Anyone who thinks Labour didn’t so do bad – wake up.
So what we can surmise from all that if interpreted into a general election? Not much. If anything, just that voters were once again faced with the least worst of utterly awful. Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn do not have what it takes to be future leaders of Britain.
Whilst I have said since well before Theresa May lost her majority in a snap election and shoe-horned herself in by......
