Re: Pros and Cons of election result?
Unless I miss my guess there is only one Pro and the no foreseeable Cons stop
The pro is that we now have a government with a good working majority which should enable them to get the legislation they need through Parliament to get on with Brexit. Also on what seems to be the face of it a government set on equalising society and moving the emphasis away from London.
So far as the no change in political setup I think there will be quite a few changes. First and foremost should be changes in the constituency boundaries to ensure a more equal distribution of voters. The present setup, where it takes fewer Labour voters to elect an MP than it does to elect a Conservative MP, or any other MP for that matter, should be changed.
There is already talk of government making changes in the setup at the BBC and not before time either. I think you'll find that Boris will be a man of his word particularly in terms of his debt to the North and will do his best to carry out his promises, although I'm sure there will be those who will do their utmost to prevent him.
Perhaps the most gratifying result from this election is that despite all the insults, the abuse and sometimes downright hatred that Boris has had to endure by using humour and good nature has won through in the end despite his detractors. Those who called him a buffoon, Clown Prince, a liar and the rest have been shown to be lacking in judgement. Good on you Boris I say, now get on with it
On second thoughts perhaps there is a Con which is assuming that the extreme left is vanquished and gone forever, it isn't, it will be back because they unable to learn the lessons of history, or even more recently of other countries, I'm thinking of Venezuela and a few other South American countries.
