credit due, they did do the right thing in one marginal so far. That's one positive I guess. Poor people without cars and who haven't had a holiday in over a decade are the real Greens imo. And I wouldn't trust that party to act in their interests as far as I could throw Caroline /Soubz (they seem like conjoined twins that repeatedly go Gnuuu GNuu these days!).

Some more tough transformer talk, this time from Nrigella Frarag:

I led Ukip into the 2015 general election. I had all the same stuff, all the same arguments. The Tory tribe screaming and shouting, ‘Don’t take our votes’.

The Ukip vote took more votes from Labour than it did from the Conservatives, David Cameron wouldn’t have even got a majority without Ukip.

We are going to hurt the Labour party in the most extraordinary way. We’ll do it in South Wales, we’ll do it in the Midlands, we’ll do it in the north of England.

Those Labour voters have been completely betrayed by the Labour party. They are my number one target. I got those votes in 2015, I’ll do it again.

Soubry is disgusting scum.

Is Lucas really close to her? Disappointing if so.

Yes, poor people with low carbon footprint are 'de facto green' - fine.

But if you think that's a good thing, then it is somewhat logical to vote for a party focused on being ... green.

Historically, Green policies have been on the Left. If that's changed, it must be a specific recent development.

I'm employing a bit of the old hyperbole there Pinefox, but they did pop up next to each other with Blackford, and were finishing each others sentences calling for a GNU. This was after everyone got a bit excited over the proroguing of parliament.

calzino, Monday, 4 November 2019 10:25 (six years ago)

the un-proroguing of parliament I should have said.

This Labour Party mob must be some crack outfit, everyone is attacking them and everyone is targeting their seats - makes sense because they've been in power for... er... hold on...

Michael Oliver of Penge Wins £5 (Tom D.), Monday, 4 November 2019 10:59 (six years ago)

Farage apparently only targeting 'votes' rather than seats - not convinced he actually wants any BXP candidate to win. Much like his argument against running as an MP, he can only operate from the 'outside'. If they do win a seat it will be largely accidental.

nashwan, Monday, 4 November 2019 11:11 (six years ago)

Jill thinks "this Labour Party mob must be some crack outfit"

Labour is a Leave Party disguising itself as sitting on the fence (trust us, vote for us, and then we'll let you know which way we'll jump) and Gareth Eales is a Corbynite. Could you really vote for that?

Sinn Fein not standing in South or East Belfast to boost Alliance candidates (not sure it will have much impact against the DUP in the latter though).

This has pretty much been Johnson's MO up to now in a sense, sniping from the sidelines with little chance of retribution. His ego probably told him he has what it takes to be a hard-man Erdoğan type leader, which predictably isn't quite panning out. Looking forward to the BXP and Tory right tipping into outright war with each other over the next month though (hopefully this will happen).

European commission president elect Ursula von der Leyen will meet Tony Blair on Wednesday (at his request) to discuss a "series of topical issues".
Commission spokes decline to elaborate further.

Yeah East is a solid unionist constituency but a lot depends on how angry/motivated voters are to get out and vote. You can guarantee the nationalist vote will turn out in force, but unionist voters might be disillusioned enough to stay home, and Alliance won the seat the last time that happened.

Belfast south is more interesting because that only went DUP last election. If SF aren’t standing that benefits the SDLP who held the seat for the previous 12 years.

SDLP are standing aside in Belfast North for SF, which is already a marginal, and where the UUP haven’t stood for 14 years. They’re doing it in North Down too.

Woodcock chucks it in - good riddance

how much in would a woodcock chuck if a woodcock could chuck in

non-euclidean lenin (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 4 November 2019 14:40 (six years ago)

Woodcock’s decision to stand down sets up Labour vs Tory fight in Barrow & Furness. Labour scraped it in 17 (to the shock of all at the count.) It’a near the top of Tory target seats - Leave-voting, “Workington man” *wince*, coastal town. Brexit Party candidacy could be crucial. pic.twitter.com/dKtlIdXx7s
