UKIP … lost over 120 seats, the vast majority of which will go over to the Tories.

False. A good proportion of UKIP votes – in fact a majority of them in some regions – went to Labour. That’s why Labour did so unexpectedly well in the General Election called by Theresa May, after Brexit had ceased to become an issue and UKIP had lost its raison d’être.

They were, until the market took off and exploded.
Now these developments are seen as pie in the sky.

Once the presstitute detritus realise that the lie of ‘Labour lost’ is seen by the serfs as arithmetically incorrect, and once the position that the ONLY votes that mattered were those of a certain group, in one council, alone in all of the UK, has been laughed out of court, the next step will be to assert that Putin, Corbyn’s mate, unleashed his ‘bot army’ to swing things Corbyn’s way. It is standard procedure now in all elections that do not go the way of the mad dogs who rule the crumbling West, to blame all these defeats on ‘Russian interference’. Without any evidence, whatsoever, but hastily confected assertions of Twitter’s mysterious ability to assert a mesmeric effect over the lesser ranks. If it wasn’t so vile, so maniacal, it would be hilariously funny to see an elite of such exquisite rottenness going stark, raving, mad.

It didn’t come off, did it. You may be correct.
