DrewDon Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 5 minutes ago, Michael W said: The MP for Bury, Christian Wakeford, has defected to Labour. Majority of ~400 so a cert to be binned at the next election if he stayed. The banter begins. Big fan of Labour announcing it on Twitter like you would expect a football team to announce a new signing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No live action though - cupping his ear, wagging his finger, punching the air etc like he'd just scored a goal would have earned extra points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 The last MP for Bury South was Ivan Lewis, who left Labour and then stood as an independent while urging people vote for Christian Woolford, the Conservative candidate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 14 hours ago, Have some faith in Magic said: Papers reporting the 'Pork Pie Putsch' has begun. One of tbe MPs is for Melton Mowbary. Much better than the night of the long scapegoats they were talking about a couple of days back. Given Johnson’s ongoing lies about attending parties I’m very disappointed that it wasn’t named the Porkie Pie Putsch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I hope Labour fans are excitedly sharing a poorly edited YouTube compilation of Christian Wakeford's best Commons moments. Set to 90s dance music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 A literal Red Tory. Starmer is depoliticising England exactly the way Sturgeon has defanged. You either have the cruel pro business anti worker party or the woke pro business anti worker party. We used to laugh at Americans over this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew it wasn't going to be an ex head teacher or local councillor. It's a woman with experience of creating propaganda with the purpose of destroying a nation and killing huge numbers of people. All the party stuff is being promoted by the media now because Boris went against the WEF agenda. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
