Observer II Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 See local Labour Members have been by-passed by London, with another PPC being parachuted into Warrington N. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latchford Locks Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 And when whoever it is gets elected... the only people to blame will be the voting public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 So if i don't vote then you can't blame me for the result. i have no problem with parachuting MP's in, provided it is into the nearest war hotspot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 But she's hard-left Labour just like her dad (who is a good mate of Corbyn and also a top union boss).... and she's Jewish... (Well she has been for a few months apparently.... which is convenient) and apparently she's spent loads of time in Salford... and Liverpool.... so she ticks all the right boxes 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy51 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 The Labour party are probably confident that even a meat pie wearing a Labour rosette would win in Warrington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer II Posted November 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 The same applies to most of the North and Midlands, which they've taken for granted for decades. Perhaps they've kept us poor, precisely so we would keep voting for them ? ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milky Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 If she does own the house, she is doing well, 28 and owns a £450,000 house! Yet another politician living beyond her salary? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grey_man Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 It's Cathy Mitchell's house. Charlotte Nichols is registered on the electoral roll in Islington so the question is why she gave the Deputy Leader's address as her home address on the nomination form. That may be the breach of the law. I think there are two possibilities. The most generous and likely interpretation is that they're rattled about the backlash to her being parachuted into a safe seat so have pretended she lives in the Borough for the credulous to see on their ballot papers. The other possibility is they've done that and committed electoral fraud at the same time, all under the watchful gaze of the agent and proposer, a Mr R Bowden, the seconder, a Ms C Mitchell, and the returning officer, a Mr S Broomhead. BTW, watch how Russ deals with this sort of stuff. He has a standard MO. He first will make an aggressive assertion about 'mischief' and ignorance of some issue - classically people not knowing the difference between revenue and capital budgets or some stuff about the Tories - then when asked for a supporting detail for his assertion - let's say whether interest paid on capital spending comes out of revenue budgets, the cost of the council's offices, Redwood Bank, why the candidate for North Warrington is registered in Islington but has given her home address as somebody else's, and so on... ...he disappears. It obviously frustrates him that the people of Warrington won't just be told and pipe down. I assume he doesn't respond to the police and the Electoral Commission in the same hectoring tone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Observer II Posted November 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 Islington eh ? ! 😉 An illustration of the way in which Labour operates from an elite middle class base in London, to venture into the realm of those dark satanic mills, in order to farm the votes of the Prols. And they wonder why they no longer resonate with the aspirations of working class voters. Seems the only choice for Leave voters is to vote for Nigel or hold their noses and vote Boris. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
