Paul Nuttal is not an MEP.

This stuff is shit.

Paul Nuttal is not an MEP.

But Paul Nuttall is.

But Paul Nuttall is.

Oh, now you're not ignoring me.

It's all falling into UKIPs lap right now - by-election expected as tory MP resigns (before being kicked out it seems) over cash for questions - in a seat with a split anti-tory vote, neither of who can overhaul them on their own, but tory defectors plus two sets of tactical votings from lib-dems and labour can.

This is Patrick Mercer in Newark btw.

6 month ban.

Ball in Mercer's court.....will he do what would hurt Cameron most?

 

[brogdale]

game on!

 

[King Biscuit Time]

Perfect storm for Farage. He couldn't have wished for a by election in a better seat - as long as he thinks he can win it.

Now I wonder will the three main parties goad him into standing or remain silent?

...and Crick has just said that it can't be held until after the Euros/locals, so the tories can't tie up UKIP with 2 concurrent campaigns.

It can't be held on the same day is what I heard on the radio (not Crick)

Yeah, it's right...according to Smithson...

It is impossible for there to be a by election in Newark or anywhere else on May 22nd . section 14 of the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 came into force on April 6th and now there is a minimum of 25 days excluding weekends/bank holidays between the writ being moved and the by election being held .

That is so unbelievably shit. Did you do it yourself?

No I didn't actually and don't give a flying fuck whether you like it or not, so fuck off being such a condescending prick!

I shall now go back to ignoring you, like I have been doing for a very long time now despite the fact that you continue baiting and abusing. You seriously aren't as important as you seem to believe you are.

This is better

Personally I like every which way people take it upon themselves to show their dislike of UKIP, I don't think it's a competition of better or worse. I'm happy to be seeing it done.

Voting tory?

I wasn't referencing your post tbh, I just meant it was just 'better' in terms of having a short, sharp, positive message for people who might be thinking of voting UKIP instead of just calling them racists and possibly entrenching their position

Yeah I hear ya. The thing I posted is tongue in cheek obviously apart from the post them a brick care of their own freepost.

 

[Dogsauce]

A school friend once found several thousand blank envelopes in a skip, and set up the Freepost address for the British Field Sports Association on his John Bull toy printing set and stamped them all up, dropping a few dozen in any post box he passed. Cost them a few hundred quid. At 60p a stamp these days you could burn through some of UKIP's wealthy backers' cash a bit quicker. Shame the post office has been privatised, you could be redistributing Stuart Wheeler's cash to the NHS (or, um, war and prisons...)

 

[Dogsauce]

I think they have weight limits on those Freepost addresses don't they? Bricks might not go through. Cat turds are probably fair game.

Voting tory/labour/lib-dem?

Even by idiotic means that actually increase the support for UKIP. But hey doing totally counterproductive things is better than doing nothing right
