2 special elections could bring more bad news for Britain's governing Conservatives_我的网站
A | LONDON -- Voters are casting ballots Thursday in two special elections in England that could add more misery to the beleaguered governing Conservative Party as it prepares to fight a national election next year.The Conservatives won both Tamworth in central England and Mid-Bedfordshire, north of London, by large margins during the last national election in 2019. But both constituencies’ lawmakers resigned under a cloud.Tamworth legislator Chris Pincher quit after Parliament’s standards watchdog recommended he be suspended for “completely inappropriate” behavior after groping two men at a London private members’ club. Then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson’ s reluctance to sanction Pincher when the allegations emerged helped trigger Johnson's ouster at the hands of his own party last year.Mid-Bedfordshire member of Parliament Nadine Dorries resigned over the treatment of Johnson and her own failure to be appointed to Parliament’s upper chamber, the House of Lords. Dorries is a strong ally of Johnson who has blamed Prime Minister Rishi Sunak for helping to topple the former leader.The Conservatives acknowledge they face “difficult headwinds” in both seats. Polls close at 10 p.m. (2100GMT), with results announced early Friday.The main opposition Labour Party and the smaller Liberal Democrats hope to win the seats but have tried to manage expectations, noting that the Conservatives won substantial majorities in 2019. Labour has called both districts “super-safe Tory seats.”Losing either one would add to pressure on the governing party, which has lost several byelections since Sunak took office just under a year ago. He replaced Liz Truss, who quit in October 2022 after her plan for unfunded tax cuts sent financial markets into turmoil and rocked the economy.Truss spent just seven weeks in office after winning a party leadership contest to replace Johnson, who quit after three years in office when scandals over money and ethics turned party lawmakers against him.Sunak steadied the economy but has not managed to boost the party’s rating in opinion polls, where it consistently lags between 10 and 20 points behind Labour.The Conservatives have been in power nationally since 2010, years that saw austerity following the world banking crisis, Britain’s divisive decision to leave the European Union, a global pandemic and a European war that has triggered the worst cost-of-living crisis in decades.Polls show the Conservatives are losing support across the country, from affluent southern voters turned off by Brexit to working-class northern voters who switched from Labour in 2019 after Johnson promised to spread prosperity to long-neglected areas.Sunak has tried to rally support by arguing he has a long-term vision and is prepared to make tough decisions to change Britain.Earlier this month Labour won a special election victory over the Scottish National Party in Scotland. Winning seats in Scotland, where the pro-independence SNP has long been dominant, is key to Labour’s attempt to secure a majority in the next national election, due by the end of 2024.。 京东大老板刘强东给全村老少爷们发红包，分年货了！太令人羡慕了！江苏省宿迁市光明村的村民，只要超过60岁，就会收到京东老板刘强东的一万元红包，刘强东的老师们一人10万！光明村的村民都太幸福了，11辆京东物流车，满载而来，拉着彩电，冰箱，电动车等电器，来给乡亲们发年货。每人一辆电动车，每家一车年货，村民们开着三蹦子来，连车都不用下，京东工作人员直接就给你搬上去，你掌握好方向盘拉走就行。刘强东给老家村民们发超3000万年货！ 光明村的村民被我狠狠地羡慕了！看看老人们拿着红包，幸福的笑容，开心的相互吆喝着大强子发红包了，分年货了[大笑][大笑][大笑]村民扶我青云志，我还村民万两金！他是光明村的骄傲啊！想当年18岁的刘强东考上大学，带着全村人捐的500元钱，76个茶叶蛋，这是父母亲朋以及父老乡亲们的血汗钱。刘强东说他永远忘不了那一幕，他永远是村里的大强子！出息了不忘本，刘强东好样的，你是全村人的骄傲啊[赞][赞][赞]视频加载中...再看看我们千亿总裁刘强东的爹在干吗？竟然在攒纸壳子在刘强东的老家光明村，出现了这样一个感人的场景：父老乡亲们都在等着发年货，领红包，而一个七十多岁的老头，正躲在角落里，弯着腰，认认真真的在拆纸箱子，他准备把这些纸箱子收集在一起放好，攒着卖废品。据说这个老头是刘强东的老父亲，儿子身价千亿，老父亲却拆纸箱子卖废品，啥情况？就这一幕。
