Laurence Fox. The twat.

[ddraig]

"dominated into silence"??

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Drillminister will be getting my vote anyway.

best platform, and I'm being entirely serious

 

[Santino]

"dominated into silence"??

Some people pay a lot of money for that.

 

[Cloo]

Wow, clearly the man is totally powerless and silenced if all he can do is stand for Mayor of London. I mean, you have to be utterly destroyed by the Woke Establishment before you sink to that being your only option.

 

[NoXion]

You can tell he's being silenced, because he's always gobbing off on Twitter.

 

[T & P]

Good. Will further split the Right’s votes and make it more difficult for the Tory candidate twat to win.

Well I for one will be Khan-ing it. I don't care what anyone says about the guy, at least he knows what it's like for ordinary people because he grew up a Joe Bloggs himself, as opposed to the public school ivory tower of many of his colleagues/opposition.

 

[DaveCinzano]

"dominated into silence"??

He's lost in some reverie or other, thinking back to a Lewis salary-fuelled coke'n'spanking marathon in a Soho basement flat.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Like many people, he doesn't understand the true principle of free speech. He can gob off on Twitter all he wants without being imprisoned/prosecuted for expressing his views. That's his freedom of speech. But equally, we have the freedom of speech to tell him "Feck off, you're talking shite." Freedom of speech does not mean "No one's allowed to criticise my twattish behaviour!"

[andysays]

London-based Urbs, let's please make sure we all use our vote in the Mayoral Elections to stop this tosspot getting in.

I'll certainly be reconsidering my original plan to draw a spunking cock on my ballot paper, in case it gets misinterpreted as a vote for Fox

There are too many utter utter utter arseholes going for the job for votes to be wasted. Arseholes will be using their votes to vote for those arseholes.

 

[Cerv]

government's already planning to be lifting lockdown one month after the election anyway.
what's the twat going to do for the rest of the 4 years?

joking - he's not getting more than single figures in the vote

 

[tim]

Good. Will further split the Right’s votes and make it more difficult for the Tory candidate twat to win.

Not really, you get two Mayoral votes the first one you can waste on whichever fringe candidate you want the second one you can save for one of the top two once your first choice has been eliminated. Of course, there are several other conspiranoid candidates such as the Ickeite Brian Rose for the dimmer Alt-Righters to squander their second preference if they were desperate to lose their votes, as well as Charlie the Pimlico Plumturd for any of them who is willing to go for a more conventional old-fashioned right-wing cunt.

 

[albionism]

When I first saw this, my first thought was "that gammon twat has no
hope of becoming Mayor of London". Then I remembered Mayor Boris

If being allowed to publish whatever you want in the Sunday Telegraph is "being silenced" than god knows what freedom of expression looks like.

The one positive I take from that is the utter utter arsehole vote will be fractured rather than concentrated on only one utter utter arsehole.

 

[starfish2000]

It’s a typical right wing Brietbart distraction campaign. By running, he’ll get coverage. Even. If he gets nowhere it keeps the framework of the Overton window to the far right. So expect to see him on the BBC 24/7.

And from that Graun article :

Fox joins a motley cast of candidates including fellow lockdown sceptics Piers Corbyn and Brian Rose, the former Wall Street banker and host of YouTube channel London Real, which famously aired a controversial interview with conspiracy theorist David Icke early in the pandemic.

Looks like the conspiraloonery vote for London Mayor is going to be split then! ....
Given that he said this utter shit in a Telegraph interview ... ( )

“With almost all older and vulnerable people having got their jab, I want the lockdown lifted straight away. The government has said vaccines are working, hospitalisations and deaths are tumbling, but we are still being told we won’t be able to resume normal life until mid-summer at the earliest.

“Both the main parties are competing in this dreary race to be the last to set the country free … I want London – and indeed the rest of the country – to be allowed to get back to work and play immediately – not by late June.”

Labour’s Sadiq Khan is expected to be re-elected

I wonder why??

Peter GAMMONS (UKIP)

OT, but...errr

Nominative determinism?

 

[tim]

He's now an American thought leader; a bit of a promotion from being Kevin Whatley's side-kick in a lacklustre sequel.

Where's that tory gone? The one who broke into people's houses and stole their breakfast?

 

[LeytonCatLady]

What exactly do the "anti-woke" want to achieve anyway? What's their vision?

 

[SpookyFrank]

SCP will poll more than that wasteman.

There seem to be more candidates than normal this year. I suppose it guarantees a few seconds on the news but it must cost a few bob to run even the most modest campaign.

Drillminister will be getting my vote anyway.

I saw Drillminister's pitch on some TV show or other and it had me sold.

 

[tim]

He walked off into the sunset.

 

[maomao]

Yeah, I wasn't trying to be edgy. He's getting both my votes.

 

[ddraig]

They want us to stay asleep

GRAMMAR!!!!!!!11!!1 Stay slept! The opposite of woke is slept
