best of luck to the lad

Chuka Umunna, the former Labour MP who joined the Lib Dems this year, has announced that he plans to stand for his new party in The Cities of London & Westminster at the next election, Joe Murphy reveals in the Evening Standard. As Murphy writes, this is “a flagship [Conservative] seat that covers the City, Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street”.

The current MP, Mark Field, had a majority of 3,148 over Labour at the 2017 election. The Lib Dems were a poor third in the seat in that election, but in this year’s European election they came top in the constituency.

Umunna says he cannot stand again in his current constituency, Streatham, because the Lib Dems already have a candidate there. Standing for Labour in Streatham two years ago, Umunna had a majority of 26,285.

Great post by Suzy on Labour position.

I turned on Radio 4 this morning.

They were asking: Should JC resign?

I turned on Professor Henry Higgins this morning.

He was asking: why can't a woman be more like a man?

Joe Proroguin' (Noodle Vague), Friday, 6 September 2019 10:41 (four years ago) link

Lab could possibly win that seat, cunt could split the vote instead xp

xyzzzz__, Friday, 6 September 2019 10:42 (four years ago) link

it would be hilarious if chuka’s final achievement in politics was helping labour win a conservative seat

like i said, best of luck to the lad

xps
the bbc are sowing their own seeds of doom, there is a young politically aware generation growing up now who will see they are barely a credible a source of trustworthy/impartial content, and the little tory shits will expect nothing less than CCHQ pravda tv in the future.

I've just found my mum has only just applied for settled status. She's a French national, been here for 30 odd years, married to a British national. She's crying that they will be coming for her and I don't know how to reassure her. My instinct says she will be safe, but I don't know how to back this up. Any help and guidance would be appreciated.

glumdalclitch, Friday, 6 September 2019 10:58 (four years ago) link

What makes her think this? Is it the terrible discourse or something she saw as she was applying. I would try to break it down like that and if something comes up try to find info on her behalf if necessary.

xyzzzz__, Friday, 6 September 2019 11:04 (four years ago) link

they say everyone has until 31 Dec 2020 to apply, even in the event of No Deal. she's applied already and lived here for 30 years so it sounds pretty solid to me. utterly ridiculous that any of this is happening of course. and hard to quash the feeling that you're signing up for some "round up the usual suspects" list!

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Friday, 6 September 2019 11:09 (four years ago) link

Thanks. I don't know exactly what she has been reading - she buys The Sunday Times - but I've done my best so far, but the events of this week have shaken her, and me.

glumdalclitch, Friday, 6 September 2019 11:16 (four years ago) link

If your mum has indefinite leave to remain in an old pre-EU passport she shouldn’t have a problem.

Definitely no election in October say the opposition parties. Boris can come home to Carrie and the dog now.

Poor old Bojo struggling to regain his pre-season form.

After a dawn visit to Peterhead’s fish market several hours earlier, Johnson seemed tired, taking several attempts to answer questions.

our indefatigable pm standing strong and stable

The prime offered a curiously-phrased answer to a question about his own future during a 12-minute long press conference with newspaper reporters in Aberdeenshire, lacking his normally self-confident bounce and bluster.

He was asked by the Guardian when he might resign, given he had won the Tory leadership with a pledge to unite the party and the country, yet had presided over deep splits in both. He answered:

“What I said was that we had to deliver Brexit, unite the country and defeat Jeremy Corbyn. And that’s what we’re going to do.”

He was asked again: at what point do you think you might resign?

“Er … Well … I think after those three objectives have been accomplished I will … At some point after those three objectives have been accomplished.”

visions of him running amok amid the trestle tables and scarfing down several buckets of raw herring to try and get his strength back

No raw herring IIRC, the Spanish have nicked it all, that’s why we need brexit.
