Re: Plaid Cymru win Caerphilly by-election
You’ve seen the Caerphilly now feck off home.
Nigel Farage, 30p Lee, Zia Yusuf, Richard Tice, Danny Kruger, Sarah Pochin, Nadine Dorries, Andrea Jenkyns, Ann Widecombe, your boy took one hell of a beating.
Caerphilly 1, English National party 0.
My fellow Caerphillians, I love you.

Re: Plaid Cymru win Caerphilly by-election
Brilliant result! Almost a 4,000 majority. I think that result wouldn't be far off for the rest of Wales if the election was today.
Labour dead in the water, serves them right for HS2 and the Crown Estate

Re: Plaid Cymru win Caerphilly by-election
Farage and Labour given a bloody nose, seems like a win win to me,.thought the greens might have done a little better.

I don't think Maths Is your strongest subject Sludge!
Overall the left of centre parties were about 8,000 ahead of Reform.
That is a fair way from twice their number,though it shows they still have a way to go.

Re: Plaid Cymru win Caerphilly by-election
Great news hopefully Reform become more exposed for what they are. Vile party.

Re: Plaid Cymru win Caerphilly by-election
Let the mop up begin. Labour try to convince themselves and everyone else that their performance isnt indicative of wider problems, Reform push the narrative that this was a big step and they absolutely categorically definitely werent expecting to win and the tories try and convince the world that they still exist. Oh and lib dems and greens have to grapple with the idea that their national polling can be blown over by the breeze of tactical voting. More delusion to come.

They'll be ecstatic
There's an element of tactical voting but that doesn't explain the entirety of it, especially when you consider the fact they've been leading the YouGov polls & Labour's result is in line with what those polls are saying they'll get nationwide
Wonderful news those vile racists didn't get in. Shows they can be stopped!

That cafe that made a thing of welcoming Farage and then became a focal point for a far-right 'rally', that ended up being 4 people ,with one in a balaclava and one on a mobility scooter , may have to quickly do some PR work too.
Big result for Plaid on a big turnout but Reform are a one policy party and were campaigning in an area with little migration and a strong pro-Ukraine presence (that they themselves stoked). They will do better in other areas unfortunately.

Its very important not to drive any independence as it will scare off the swing voters
