Was it a surprise that Labour won in Britain?🇬🇧

When I was in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 at my Mother’s house the news was full of discussion about the approaching election and the speculation was vehement and oppressive, Starmer was trying not to appear entitled but it seems that his first act was to align with Davos rather than Westminster.

It’s a changing of the guard but will much change in Britain? 🇬🇧 Well it seems after seven previous attempts Nigel Farage has won a parliamentary seat 💺 and he has sworn to make a difference in British politics. He might if he continues to talk bravely and say like it is!

Evidently the SNP lost ground in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 to Labour, so the question of independence has been resolved in that the Scottish people have ousted a proportion of Scottish mp’s from Westminster and the job of the SNP in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 has just become much harder.

In a word - no.

Since Liz Truss crashed the economy so badly they never regained in the polls. So no surprises. Reform coming up and taking so many Tory votes away probably costing Tories hundreds of seats.
