Coleman balls, a question.

Considering places up north, like in the Durham county area. Had MPs running who literally donated their wages to help fund their local mining communities after Thatcher’s harshness decimated their way of life. Their quality of life is continually on the down, since Austerity.

Why would they vote for the tories if it wasn’t due to the media?

You would need to speak to them.

Something the Southern based Labour hierachy failed to do.

If they did engage with them then maybe they wouldn't have tanked so much at the election.I am sure if you looked hard enough you would have many quotes from Labour MP's that became ex MP's on what their views are on all of this.

But the get out clause for all of Labours failures over the last 10 or so years is the media.So I'll blame it on the media brainwashing the lifelong labour supporters into voting Tory for the first time as they are so dumb.

Why do folk get so territorial over politics?

It’s mental. I don’t see it over here

Because if one party continually trashes your community, resulting in some people having to die through cuts, then of course it is very territorial.

I`m surprised you have not noticed the worse tribalism in the UK happens on your Island.

tribalism, partition ah same thing.

You literally didn’t say anything here. I expected an actual response rather than a lot of sentences that answer things I haven’t discussed.
