I agree. Although a snap election may be the worst for Labour atm (despite them wanting one themselves)

If there are elections now, Labour would probably do reasonably well, and Corbyn would be a lot safer

If elections are postponed, I think Corbyn has a good chance of being ousted, or Labour losing a lot of support in infighting

(I'm only pretending to know what I'm talking about, I have no clue)

There's a petition calling for a GE - 7,000 signatures...!

Why are you obsessed with petitions? We all saw how well the EU referendum one turned out.

The irony...

I need to know where I'm heading

Yep! Everyone I know is saying they just don't want it to ever happen, and then there's me just saying "get it over with"

Oh how exciting I was only thinking yesterday that I'd avoided the weird results day dreams, clearly I spoke too soon! I had another weird one the other day though nothing to do with exams - in this one everything I clicked on Wikipedia came to life in front of me, so naturally I clicked on things such as zombies, vampires and Hitler instead of anything else

Yes indeed. It only got 4 million signatures.

Well if I were you I wouldn't even bother getting upset over hypocritical politicians anymore. I've come to the realisation that they're all the same. They spout big words like democracy and mandate and accountability when it's convenient and forget all about it when it isn't

I feel like the general public view Labour as in shambles currently (which they are) and have little confidence in them

With time, the infighting would stop, we'd have a united opposition, and Corbyn would lay out a clear plan for the country now that we're leaving the EU, attracting a lot of support

Maybe I'm being too optimistic

(And same)

But the Tories are also in shambles currently, this might be our best shot

Not sure Corbyn will get that much support, although I think the Tories have lost a lot, many votes will go back to the LibDems and a lot to UKIP, imo

(Don't worry, I have a PhD in politics from Google)

Which were completely worthless.

And have now earned a parliamentary debate.

Ooh gotta choose accommodation now

Hello stranger

Haha hello How was your first year?

Pretty good actually, came out with a first (although it doesn't count) with still being able to fit in nights out, social life and all the rest of it. It's all about efficient work really, not the time put in, but how smart you are with your time etc. Of course the more smart time you put in, the higher your result will be, like I wasn't top of class or anything, but I got a comfortable first which I'm happy about.

How's your holidays so far? Hopefully not too stressed about results day?

That's great news! Hopefully the rest of us can follow suit haha.

My holiday's going well, I'm kinda comfortable about results day I just think Physics Unit 5 didn't go so well I can be confident I definitely made it :/

Also just found out I'll be going to Cambridge on the 12th if I meet my offer
