this is the key point isn’t it - and as we've all been pointing out since 2016, the referendum has absolutely exploded that 2015 coalition

But we also know that one reason why it didn't matter that David Cameron lost a bunch of affluent authoritarian voters to Farage is cos he picked up a bunch of affluent liberals from the Lib Dems. That, uh, might be a lot riskier this time: https://t.co/fH4WJALIN1

as far as I can see

1 most voters are sick to the back teeth of discussion of brexit and other constitutional matters
2 there’s only one party who are focusing 99.9% on non-constitutional issues

feel like that could play out well for them

U loves to see it. Although this level of hostility towards the murdoch scum press should be standard in the PLP, and any Blairite remnants cosying up to them should be reduced to a pile of wood chips imo

he was cleared of any improper conduct t'other day relating to his mayoral corruption involving his "business acquaintance". I won't have high hopes of anything damaging coming from this either. But you can always hope.

in the last 24 hours mike gapes has been taken in by a tactical voting site that recommends him in every constituency and the political editor of the bbc has had to deny shaving a boy called cyril. it is day 2 of the electoral campaign.

Whatever your politics, this is discriminatory, undemocratic and wrong. Not only is it two blokes deciding to have a debate excluding women, we are not a two party country and the sizeable proportion of the public who want to #StopBrexit won’t have a voice in the room. /1 https://t.co/6wxxPXtdyN

Chuka’s right, it’s not a two party debate, they should include the SNP as well.

A would-be MP for Batley and Spen believed aliens were “working with our world Governments” and that she came from a star called Sirius.

Jill Hughes was the Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the Brexit Party in the West Yorkshire constituency.

They questioned her employment history but also quoted from social media postings and her book, released last year, Spirit of Prophecy.

In the book it reads “the E.T’s, some of them less than Apple Pie wholesome or Positive pumpkins, are already here working with our world Governments, but that’s all hush-hush for now”.

safe to say BXP are probably not seriously going for Batley and Spen

calzino, Friday, 1 November 2019 22:59 (six years ago)

she is a former candidate apparently, but had to post it

calzino, Friday, 1 November 2019 23:03 (six years ago)

stockhausen claimed he came from sirius too iirc, maybe they were neighbours?

the creator has a mazda van (NickB), Friday, 1 November 2019 23:04 (six years ago)

I don't think Stockhausen would have been elected in Batley & Spen either tbf.

my local RL club has people putting poison around their park field to teach people who don't scoop a lesson. Thats why my dog always has his muzzle on in the park and I get that Wenger style "I din't get a clear view of zis incident" when he lays a massive turd on their pitch.

calzino, Saturday, 2 November 2019 00:28 (six years ago)

the LibDems, whose leader accepts donations from Cuadrilla says the tory party are about as eco friendly as one of them fires that some of the people they helped make homeless during the coalition years might keep warm around. Hey, but at least the tories have paused fracking for a couple of months.

calzino, Saturday, 2 November 2019 02:13 (six years ago)

xp that’s so evil, is it legal for them to do that?

I don't get why people are so angry about this (apart from the hashtag obviously). In the absence of an electoral pact the major parties will stand in every constituency surely? https://t.co/gpw0oTmcA0

— Dorian Lynskey (@Dorianlynskey) November 1, 2019

imagine being this much of a disingenuous cunt


So far the Lib Dems have stood down for two Tories (Dominic Grieve & Antoinette Sandbach) whilst launching high-profile campaigns against pro-remain Labour MPs with tiny majorities vs the Tories & where LDs have no chance of winning (Emma Dent-Coad, Rosie Duffield) #YellowTories

This u-turn on fracking days after it was revealed that the tory manifesto was being written by a fracking lobbyist, it stinks of cummings and it makes me fear that there will be a lot more of this stuff to come

mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Saturday, 2 November 2019 10:14 (six years ago)

Was thinking the same. I doubt many of the protesters in the fracking areas will be convinced that is a u-turn, just a temporary electioneering pause.
