Frothy coffee is mine. It’s art.

Receiving his "frothy coffee" in Pontypridd's Prince's cafe, Owen Smith stopped mid-sentence to express some amusement. "I tell you it is the first time I have ever been given little biscuits and a posh cup in here," Smith said, looking up at the owner David Gamberini, as his order was placed on the table. "Seriously, I would have a mug normally," the MP added, examining the refreshments in front of him.

Wherein you are invited to wonder why a Blairite former Pfizer exec who represents a constituency with a large Italian diaspora is letting on he doesn’t know what a cappuccino is

Apart from losing am worried the turnout will drop again after a few years on the increase. Obv. the Tories are banking on lower turnout. If only the thought of doorknocking didn't fill me with dread.

Is Matthew Collings still a C Williamson apologist? that might be something to do with the trouble he's in.

Yeah Collings is a crank. He actually faced a tweet of mine...about Virginia Woolf, of all things.

Matthew Collings is all over mutuals’ FB threads and is very cranky indeed. He would be a real liability as a PPC.

Corbyn’s snapchat game was amazing last election, might have to get it just for that

Alexei Sayle's R4 show tonight after doing a long ranty gag-free line about British imperialism in Iran: Don't worry when Corbyn is PM all comedy will be like this :p

Which Alexei was on tonight?

his sandwich shop show on R4.

Pathetic

A #generalelection2019 looks increasingly likely.

This won’t resolve the Brexit stalemate.

The answer would be to listen to the calls for a #PeoplesVote. pic.twitter.com/KT4HuvQxK4

they should be talking about a fracking lobbyist is writing the Cons manifesto, but they are just the pocket LibDem party now.

calzino, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 09:27 (four years ago) link

I think this thread probably needs locking

calzino, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 09:28 (four years ago) link

Yes, but only until we get a proper title to the election thread

xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 09:31 (four years ago) link

prorogue the thread ahead of time?

koogs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 09:37 (four years ago) link

Not opposed to keeping this thread going for non-GE UK politics if there can be such a thing

nashwan, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 09:52 (four years ago) link

Amber Rudd gone

xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 10:23 (four years ago) link

We knew Amber Rudd was going already.

LAB gain, Hastings (that many DFLs have moved there over the past two years, too).

coup de twat (suzy), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 10:33 (four years ago) link

it seems quite significant that someone from the same fracking company that Jo Swinson accepted a £14 k "donation" from is writing the Cons manifesto.

calzino, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 10:40 (four years ago) link

> Don't worry when Corbyn is PM all comedy will be like this

that was a repeat from Nov 2017

koogs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 12:12 (four years ago) link

Twas a very timely repeat, hope he's right this time
