Tories lose Byelection with 34% swing

This' new labour 2' seems to be upsetting alot of it older voters and new voters hence them going else where hence why they done terrible in last years local.
Voters would rather vote for anything except labour and Kier cant figure out why.
This new labour 2 has strange priorities.Lets recap...
Keir Starmer’s Labour set a one-line whip to abstain from the
licence to kill’ bill.
The CHIS (criminal conduct) bill aims to give legal protection for a previously secret power – “the third direction” – allowing MI5, police forces and other specified public bodies to authorise agents and informants to commit criminal offences.
Thank god 20 Labour MPs saw sense and defy party whip to vote against ‘licence to kill’ bill.
Kier views on Julian Assange may a well of been something coming from Priti Patel mouth. The fact senior Labour members have to sign edicts to not
say anything about a certain country s human rights behaviour shows how they dont care no more.

Yet Kier tells people on Monday night address with a union jack flag in toe he voted for the passport for our protection and health LOL

As a Opposition party they seem to not opposed alot and have a forgetful memory on human rights. Labour voting with the government, without even asking for concessions on sick pay or pay rises for NHS workers that is a big wow.
Just like Bojo
Kier will be feeling the pressure today as he will be kicked away very soon due to his very very poor performance as a Labour leader and this direction of this whatever weird new concept New Labour 2 is going is no where pretty soon.
If people would rather vote for Libs or Reformed party or the mad hatters party than New Labour 2. Then it shows the vibe of the voting nation.
It is time they excepted responsibility and stop blaming everyone else. The working and lower class is going elsewhere and new voters are not interested as last night showed yet again. 

My friends and me is gutted.

Fascinated to see how Labour losing over 70% of its voters in a seat it has thrown considerable resources at will be spun as a positive result for Starmer.
Labour won just 3,686 votes in the North Shropshire by-election. This is down from 12,495 votes in 2019. The main story will obviously be a truly remarkable gain for the Lib Dems over the Tories, but you cannot underestimate just how shambolic this result is for Labour as well.

Labour Party Results in North Shropshire Constituency: 2010 (Gordon Brown) - 18.1%
2015 (Ed Miliband) – 19.9%
2017 (Jeremy Corbyn) - 31.1%
2019 (Jeremy Corbyn) - 22.1%
2021 (Keir Starmer) - 9.6%

Libs dems signed off on Austerity i will never forgive them but
Driving away traditional Labour voters in the thousands with flags, fatherlandism, and insipid Thatcherite "trickle down" b*llocks, in order to deliver "soft-Tories" into the hands of the Lib-Dems! An absolute masterclass in strategic ineptitude!

Labour under Starmer  is the worse and What's striking is how such results were treated under Corbyn's leadership compared to Starmer's. Under Corbyn, every result was a make-or-break test of his leadership. Starmer, it seems faces, no consequences for losing votes/seats.

Like you pointed out he hasn't really opposed The Tory's.
It seems to have played into the Lib dems hands.
Tactical voting more like tactical losing.
Labour's marketing campaign said 'Lib dems wont win here' (i kid you not)

As already noted above, it seems rather remarkable, that the Libs who came 3rd in 2019 and Labour came 2nd, came to this place and basically took over.
I wonder if Media hype them helped in any way?
For the tories, is it a bad sign, but they could well recover, depending on how things pan out.
They were prepared to go with Johnson during the "better" times for them if not for the rest of us, and with much rightwing Media backing, lets not forget, but during the bad times and a major crisis on the go, he has been quite hopeless, and everyone can see that.
The tories will act fast to get rid of him, if they think he will cost them votes, supposing he doesn't resign of his own accord, which he may yet still do.

But for Labour, this is indeed a damning verdict, and is more of a concern for them than for the tories.
It could well be the beginning of the end for Johnson, but not the tories. They are inpower, and they want to stay there.
Labour is in a dire position just as much, and as it stands, there looks like no way Labour could win a General Election anytime soon, and by soon, lets just say the next 10 years!
And as has already been said by myself elsewhere earlier on this By Election, and has been said by other political commentators, had Johnson not tried to protect ex MP (Disgraced)Paterson, had they allowed the suspension to go ahead, there would have been no need for his resignation, and no By Election.
Paterson brought all this upon himself, fighting with the Cross Party committee at Westminster, and then the whole thing exploded spectacularly when Johnson got involved to try save him.
They have themselves to blame, and Paterson was outrageous the entire way thru.
To think this is the thing, Johnson tried to protect!
But of course we know why he tried to protect him, as so many other tory MPs were /are doing the same thing!

And to think Labour came second here under Corbyn, and yet, again as said above, he was hounded by his own MPs.
It's not just the Libs who kept the tories in power, but those Labour MPs who went to war with Corbyn, have much to answer, as well.
But all the while, we have to put up with the miserable consequences.

Trouble is Gordo they were scared of the racist thugs - the main proponents of Brexit. As it turned out I believe they called it wrong and should have faced them down. The vast majority were / are incredibly thick and would soon have lost interest. Most would have gone back to fighting on the terraces or, failing that, in Wetherspoons.
