[Santino]

Smacks of carelessness.

It was just a bit of horseplay.

One way to get street cred

 

[Kaka Tim]

mums net word cloud. Sunak is sunk. Not a single positive word - and the most common description of him was "shit".

 

[Karl Masks]

Starmer strikes again!



TLDR: a left wing labour MP has received a complaint and consequently can't stand.

Very weird

Not really very weird, just a concerted factional purge.

Left wing labour MP, also a landlord though so hard to cry too much

ITV announces first head-to-head General Election debate -- Sunak vs Starmer -- Tuesday 4th June at 9pm, for an hour.

You know how some people choose to go out during popular live events, because it means that public venues are very quiet?

Yeah, I don't expect that will work at 9pm next Tuesday.

who has the more annoying voice? really hard to call but i think Starmer a blocked nose ahead.

Did you hear that thing about how the Tories are trying a sub-Trumpian nickname of Sir Sleepy for Starmer? Jesus wept they're so shit at everything, can't even come up with a good slur. Ratboy, thats a good one. Wet Wipe - that was inspired. Sir Sleepy? Nah.

 

[Lord Camomile]

At least go with Sir Sleepsalot

Sir Yawn Farmer?

This might be harder than it first appears.

Love to see an urban word cloud for them both

 

[PR1Berske]

Luke Akehurst (yes, him) has been allocated North Durham.

(The i newspaper's Paul Waugh has, predictably, been allocated Rochdale.)

I was actually in a room with Kier Starmer eight years ago and he smacked me across the face I think I might raise a complaint against him.

Gammon!

tbf, he has only rented out the house he owned before becoming an MP elsewhere. Looks like he is gonna need it back pretty soon.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Wikipedia have a list of Tories who are standing down in this election, and they have a list of Labour MPs who have been deselected, but is anyone keeping a running cumulative list of Labour deselections, barred from running, etc, etc?

Fake Cunt not big enough

 

[Silas Loom]

I had a weird letter from Theresa Villiers arguing that whatever happens nationally, Chipping Barnet desperately needs a Conservative MP to stop Sadiq Khan from waging war on motorists. Her faith in Uxbridge is touching.

[MickiQ]

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone eh?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Notice that after an initial cull of 2k+ tweets, a week later they apparently decided "yeah, we should get rid of these specific 177 too"

 

[The39thStep]

Pleasantly surpised that for whatever reason that Twiiter algorithm is sending me Ed Davey campaign photos. I think its because I viewed a John Sweeney tweet in which his campaign to become a Lib Dem MP seems to revolve around trying to crowdfund a pub crawl. Anway for all the Libs on here:

 

[MickiQ]

Going for the youth Vote, Vote LibDem because we too have an embarrassing Dad.

 

[CH1]

Sky were the only channel to cover thew Green Party launch live.
I like their presentation - its almost liturgical.
