Lib Dem Polls - How Low Can They Go?

[Balbi]

ok here's mine, there's a few things i don't like about the sp...

SPLITTER!

Agree with Israel/Palestine and Sheridan though. Enemy's enemy/state capitalism as enemy regardless of action is dodgy ground.

 

[frogwoman]

yep so there you go, i can understand why they took the stance they took but even so, imo they were wrong on them issues and im not afraid of saying so.

still not the same as implimenting and carrying out cuts that will affect me directly and actually potentially kill people though.

 

[ferrelhadley]

Someone on twitter is placing them 5th in Barnsley.

Apparently tories are behind UKIP.

 

[OneStrike]

I was told 5th is a possibilty for the Libs about 30minutes ago, not that 4th wouldn't be humiliating enough. We should know in a few minutes.

[ferrelhadley]

Yep looks like 5th and the tories third.

[ferrelhadley]

Shit 6th!

Have they kept their deposit? Dont think so.....

 

[Kaka Tim]

[OneStrike]

[Kaka Tim]

[wreckhead]

[cointreauman]

Just got in from work and heard the best news of the day - LD totally spunked - Candiate admitted "we got a kicking"

Well pal you are in a shit party with a tory bum licking leader, he electorate gave you 2nd at the General Election

Don't bother asking why you have lost your deposit

Don't have a focus group

The people recognise lying back stabbing power greedy arse wipes when they see them - there is no way back - Go now..... drop the coalition and force a new election - you might get 4 seats if you are lucky

Clegg - better grab your peerage in the Birthday Honours list.......

Glorious day = Thank you Barnsley.

[Sgt Howie]

Perhaps under AV they would have come fifth.

 

[Voley]

I know it's a safe Labour seat but to be beaten by UKIP, the BNP and an Independent is really pretty fucking dire.

 

[inferno]

How few votes do you have to get to lose your deposit?

 

[killer b]

under 5% i think?

 

[Balbi]

Yep, Labourlist liveblogged it. Under 5% = no deposit.

 

[killer b]

oh, and LOL.
