So be it.
The anti Corbyn, Stop Labour winning at any cost coalition, have achieved their aim and handed Johnson a huge majority in the House of Commons. Television, Newspapers, Dis affected Labour Party members, elements of the PLP, those who have shouted from the rooftops that the Labour Party is antisemitic, can sit back this morning and gloat on their success. They have handed Johnson an open cheque to "Get Brexit Done" and then sell this country off to Trump and American business interests. They have given him 5 years to create a society for the few not the many.
I despair and grieve for the people of this nation. The people who remain reliant on Food banks to feed their families. The people who are and will remain homeless on our streets. The pensioners who are faced with ever increasing costs for food, fuel to heat their homes, as well as declining cars services. The cash starved NHS where nurses, doctors and other staff who face increasing work loads and frustrations. Those on Zero Hour contracts who have no stability in their weekly budgeting. The ever increasing list of people on Council Homes waiting lists who now have little prospect of ever being housed.
We are faced with a real possibility that this country will crash out of the EU without any "deal". The resultant job losses, increased costs for people and business will be catastrophic. Many people who voted Conservative last night may well rue the day when they were taken in by the lies of the hard Brexit lobby and the smears directed at the Labour party.
It was a disastrous election for Labour, but it is the people of this country who will ultimately pay the price for Conservative win.
