You know what I mean Mr. Picky. :raspberry:
True Pink at the moment in her away kit actually and that's virtually red.
I'd say more UKIPy but keep on believing:winking:

as muddled as that was she did apologise to Costa straight afterwards for getting the coffee sellers mixed up
Would expect she'll go for East given that Duddridge has come in for a lot of stick for his stances on taxis/Uber and Southend A&E. She's a member of the Labour Party, who were second there in 2015.Local election news: Jack Monroe looking to stand in Southend East or West (maybe using the libel money won from Katie Hopkins to fund the campaign) and former Tory party chairman Eric Pickles is quitting his Brentwood seat (probably the 3rd highest profile to quit after George Osborne and Alan Johnson)
I've just remembered that Dawn Butler was the first ever MP to ask a question in Parliament using sign language, which was very laudable.
More of that, less of the car crash radio interviews, please.
She got a lot of praise for signing - and rightly so, good for a politician to put effort in to make you think.I've just remembered that Dawn Butler was the first ever MP to ask a question in Parliament using sign language, which was very laudable.

I'm reading mixed messages on if she is intending to stand as an independent or not. I thought her party membership had expired but that may not be right. If she is intending to stand for Labour she would obviously need to apply to do that rather than decide to. I see her as someone who would stray from the party line a lot but that's not necessarily a bad thing.Would expect she'll go for East given that Duddridge has come in for a lot of stick for his stances on taxis/Uber and Southend A&E.

That's what I've been thinking about, would have expected her to stand as an independent but might feel she has a better chance of actually winning if she stands as Labour if only not to split the anti-Tory vote.I'm reading mixed messages on if she is intending to stand as an independent or not.

definitely - I would hope and assume the local CLP's are in touch with her to make sure they are not aiming for the same votesThat's what I've been thinking about, would have expected her to stand as an independent but might feel she has a better chance of actually winning if she stands as Labour if only not to split the anti-Tory vote.
just for you youngsters who may not understand the irony of Barna's post (I have always assumed all are ironic) the day the Toiries lose Brentwood and Ongar is the day the revolution comes. Come on Barna the man's 65 with a 21,000 majority with UKIP second. Falling on his sword my arse. He's retiring.

Most of them are.:winking:
The idea of Pickles as a local MP (and yes I know he's been there 25 years) is,of course,an irony in itself.:smile:
The Tories on 50% in the latest ComRes poll. Not much sign of 'Bregret' from Leave voters. :clap:
