Bet it really grates that a democratic majority voted for those 'toffee-nosed public school rich boy clowns'.

Grates isn't quite the word for it - it just amazes me that so many people believed all the lies pushed out by the Tory machine via the almost exclusively Tory press. That, and the blatant election bribes, of course.

Still, Mail, Express, Sun and Star readers never were the brightest of buttons, were they?

They didn't, only 36% voted for the current governing party

In fact, 24% of those eligible to vote!

And that's not a majority? Who got more votes?

Just out of interest, if you apply for this this year, is it automatically applied each year? Thanks.

I would also like to know the answer to this question but it seems to have been ignored in favour of discussing about the outcome of the general election

...and 65.9 voted non-Labour.

And there was a majority vote in the referendum in favour of first past the post.

Yes. Once you're in the system it applies year-on-year - unless you die or get divorced!
