tatsblisters 7,774 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 I realy hope so their is two council by elections in Rotherham and the scum from momentum are supporting a former councillor who was deemed not fit for purpose whe the towns CSE scandal broke a few years back if UKIP do not win both council seats the town will go further down the pan than it already is thanks to labour.

BGD 6,384 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Oops :laugh: Nuttall continuing the proud tradition of UKIP leaders being totally unelectable http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/stoke-on-trent-central-by-election-result-labour-ukip-paul-nuttall-gareth-snell-a7596761.html 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 20,571 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Are you glad the labour candidate won? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulnix 426 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 To be fair you couldn't get much more of a safe seat for Labour winning though, haven't they always held this seat ? Just don't mention the other safe seat......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,384 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Would that other "safe seat" be the one where the fecking Lib Dems beat UKIP? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulnix 426 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 So Labour are finding comfort in the fact UKIP came 4th !! pretty much an outstanding victory for Labour then ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,384 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Copeland was a disaster for Labour and anyone saying otherwise is deluded. That doesn't mean I can't laugh at UKIP's utter failure last night though I mean their leader failed to be elected in the so called Brexit capital of Britain and they were beaten by the Lib Dems in another constituency that voted strongly Leave, the whole night was an utter embarrassment and anyone saying otherwise is equally deluded. Labour are definitely in trouble and have been for some time but UKIP are a totally spent political force. Edited February 24, 2017 by BGD 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulnix 426 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Labour are beyond being in trouble at the moment, only peoples habit of voting Labour is getting them so many votes and is giving them false hope that they are relevant, no matter who you support the country needs a strong opposition and not one who gets laughed down in parliament, just look at what Blair and Brown did as an example, completely bolloxed the country because the Conservatives were a joke at that time, we are still paying the price now for that and imagine what state we would be in after a term of two of Corbyn ! Laugh at UKIP all you want, they are not a lot more than a focus group, is a shame as they did poll well at last election but without gaining a few mp's lost all momentum and while wouldn't be enough to be the 2nd party they could of put a balance in parliament for the ordinary working man.

Born Hunter 17,610 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Not sure I understand why Stoke is being portrayed as the 'Brexit capital' when a handful of places in the East Mids had higher proportion of Leave votes.... Numbers mean f**k all, it's percentages that matter. Bit of a false portrayal. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Astanley 11,458 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I'm a bit confused as to why the title "brexit capital " iis used by the liberal\lef in a derogatory sense ,as to UKIP until they get a leader who appeals to to the fence sitters they will remain unelectable ,this clown they have got now is a sitting target for the MSM with his dodgy dealings and his lies .They need a credible leader who talks and acts like a statesman not some odd looking buffoon who plays up for the cameras or a complete wrongun like the present encumbant .

JDHUNTING 1,817 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 It doesn't really matter how ukip do the feelings of people haven't changed it's just growing and the more the media and labour do to try and block it the more those feelings grow. People are sick of it all and that will never be solved by labour lib Dems and tories Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Personally I think UKIP are an irrelevance now we're exiting the EU. Labour can celebrate beating UKIP all they want, but they want to be more concerned with the loss of Copeland to the Tories, a safe seat they had held since 1935.. When your loosing safe seats after 7 years of your opposition turning the screw you know you're in big, big trouble.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 43,971 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 UKIP without Farage is done, you can tell the bloke has a real passion for what he is saying and he is a very charismatic character........people can buy into that. I think he is a truly exceptional bloke........unfortunately they don't have anyone else like him, no party does. And the electorate never saw fit to put him in the House of Commons.......imho Britains loss. And so, the same old parties with the same old bullshit get elected and the crap continues.........everyone gets the government they deserve 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
