Cynical K?  Moi??

 

Not today chopper - I'm laughing my tits off....

 

Hartlepool scenario has me howling!  Could be worse I 'spose, Labour could invite their most successful PM EVER back into office to sort out the current shitshow 😂

 

I listened to this interview on LBC this morning:

 

'Labour is the problem not Keir Starmer', says MP Steve Reed after 'shattering' result

WWW.LBC.CO.UK

---

Shadow Communities and Local Government Secretary Steve Reed told LBC that Labour's 'shattering' by-election result...

 

 

It was a fair reflection of the situation for Labour with comments like:  "...They [the electorate] feel there's been a rupture, both in trust, in culture, in who we stand for, in what we care about. We're inward looking, we're introspective, we talk to ourselves..." - when asked by Ferrari, who he'd upset to get the task of media interviews this morning he said he didn't know but that he was going for a coffee and a croissant.

 

Yeah, you're right on message pal, coffee and croissant may be the staple diet of the North London Labour political elite but I'd suggest it may not be the staple diet of the target traditional Labour voter 😂 W⚓️

Frankly Kev, Hartlepool was ever a shit hole, and suffered accordingly. Not suprised at all. Wouldnt say it was ever representative but newspapers gotta print something regardless. K

Local MP Ian Mearns, is a decent bloke. 
I guess that you reap what you sow. I wouldn't back the current Labour party in an election, I'm yet to catch a fish as wet as Starmer. Green Party all the way here.
I'm likely to do the opposite in terms of coming home, the Celtic nations appeal to me.

You fancy living in a nationalist state under the empress sturgeon 🤮🤮

no room for dissent or hard working self employed up here bud over 43k and you are an enemy of the state. 
I have a sneaky suspicion you may have ticked the blue box eh 😀👍. Houchen is a good example of how these bloody politicians should be operating.
