Anyone else feel a sense of impending doom that we’ll have a Labour government tomorrow?

Yes! People have such short memories…….the last Labour government ruined this country for ever.

I suspect Labour will have less of a majority than expected, conservatives might do a wee bit better than expected, Lib Dems might do better and the B awful SNP slightly better than expected. Just more middling all round.
We'll have to get on with it. I hope there'll be a good government party and a strong opposition party. Just hoping really.

We have had unelected leaders for sometime now

Not in any way am I feeling impending doom.

I don’t expect miracles. I expect serious government focussed on repairing, restoring, rebuilding our nhs and other public services. They’re inheriting an almighty mess. I have more faith in Starmer to lead a decent government than I’ve had in any of the recent Conservatives.

I’d like to feel optimistic that things will improve I really would - I was pleased Blair got in in 97, but this feels different some how?
I’m kind of dreading the next - god knows how many years - under Labour.
Oh well.
