Look to Luton for the General Election Trend

luton-outGuido has been saying for some time that this election may well exceed the 1945 election for clearing out incumbent MPs. The number of troughing MPs retiring or being thrown out by electors is going to be huge. As well as the macro-political environment and the visceral anti-political feeling that covers the land and will be celebrated this Thursday 5, November, the nature of the expenses scandal means that local newspaper journalists will find it easy to attack their sitting MPs.

None will find it easier than the Luton & Dunstable Express which has started aGet Moran Out Now campaign in her Luton South constituency.  Expect to see more of this across the land.  Guido will be watching to see if Julie Kirkbride tries to stand again…

I am still waiting for the Met to arrest a few of them, suppose they are giving them as much time as possible to get their facts right. Not like the dawn raids that should be been carried out

            Important Statement

            It has been brought to my attention that a certain cowardly Eastern European politician has signed the Lisbon Treaty.

            Let us be under no illusion what this means for this country.

            Firstly it means that anyone giving “cast iron” promises in todays fast moving and interdependent, global world, can no longer be expected to honour such pledges, so I therefore have instructed my party to make no such promises in future and to change our manifesto accordingly.

            From now on, our manifesto will contain the following disclaimer, to avoid any tiresome misunderstanding in future and I quote, “All of the above is subject to change at any time without prior warning, nothing within this document should be taken at face value, we accept no liability for any errors, falsehoods or misunderstandings arising from any promises contained herein”.

            I am confident that the vast majority of the British public who have been mislead in an intolerable fashion by the Labour party and Gordon Brown in particular, will applaud our new initiative regarding openess and transparency, in British political life.

            Thank you for taking the time to read this message.

          • Disclaimer : small print.

            Labour manifestos are for illustration purposes only. The pledges that are kept may differ from the pledges made during elections. Opponents of the party may have their calls monitored and recorded for training and oppression purposes.

            Popular prime ministers may be changed for unpopular ones after elections without prior notice and in defiance of previous misleading statements.
            If we increase stealth taxes to your disadvantage we will notify you of any changes in writing 30 days before the change takes place. You will be required to sign and return the consent form or if you prefer not to you have the option of leaving the country.

          • Well, strictky speaking Mr Fawkes I was trying to kill both legislature and executive. In those days the executive was the King and his ministers. Nowadays the executive is who? Why Mr Brown and his ministers. And they conveniently sit in the HoC a lot of the time.

            India has a splendid constitution. It is detailed , fair and well thought out. It is federal constitution which very effectively reconciles the varying interests and attitudes of the 28 states of India and also the federal territories. It is the founding law of India and has as a basic principle popular soveriegnty. It serves India well as the political basis for India’s future.

            Contrast that to our own bumbling half baked difficult-to-find constitution which, after Blair’s ignorant interference
            ( Scotland and Wales have national parliaments but England has none and no home rule) is likely to preside over the end of the now very disunited Kingdom.

            Now if the UK had a federal constitution (including an English parliament for the English) it might also have a future.

      Do not imagine, for a minute, that Labour will be so easily got out.

      Firstly, they know how to stuff or lose ballot boxes: this is, after all, how socialism works – it is cloaked in a corrupt and wicked phantasm which purports to imitate democracy. the logical conclusion of this process is Cuba or North Korea or the UK under “New” “Labour”. And “Labour” has many, many rotten and pocket boroughs to protect.

      Secondly, the Civil Contingencies Act has been created, particularly to prevent elections at inconvenient times for the GramscoFabiaNazis, such as when they are behind in the polls, so that “Public Order may Be Endangered” if an election goes ahead.

      Thirdly the BBC is on-side for them, has been for years since we liberals failed in the 1980s and 1990s to properly clear out at gunpoint when it would have been easy and quick, the Augean Stables of Media, the Universities and Polytechnics, and minor State Bureaucracy. The BBC is implying that it is saying that it is “None Other Than The Voice of The Political Arm of The British People”.

      I predict a hung Parliament. I don’t think the GFN bastards yet have quite the brass neck and immortal rind to artificially-engineer a clear Labour win: or perhaps I am even being a bit too optimistic here. Perhaps things have even gone that far, and perhaps they really believe they are already apart from the rest of enslavable-humanity.

      We may have just to kill and eat the bastards and be done with it (but not their brains as we will get Mad-Gramscian-Disease” – just cut off the entire skull, after death, and burn it I think.) Of course, the introduction of “Sharia” “Law”, whatever that is, will certainly “put a stop to all this nonsense” as a commentator above has said already – but not quite in the way the GramscoFabiaNazis think. Some of them may get stoned, and also not in the way they thought…

      Some people think that these GFN buggers don’t realise the pent-up-fury they are engendering in people at large. I do not agree: of course they know it, they have always expected it, they plan to do what they want anyway, and ruthlessly and dispassionately supress opposition, on account of its being “misguided” or “in error”, or of the opposers being “unfit to comment”. Some schoolchildren in Cambodia, under the Pol Pot Terror, were forced to chant “unfit teacher” while also being forced to hang that wretched individual themselves, at the point of AK47s. They were then shot also.

      Socialism is wicked and evil on purpose, and we must give it no quarter.

        But really was Blair better. Admittedly he wasn’t mental, but he caused just as much trouble, was equally inept ( if slightly more decisive) and was much more dishonest. On the international stage he let everyone walk all over us, and left every other head of government ithat he dealt with in pole position. Really it would be hard to choose which of them was the more damaging to the UK. But the pair of them were the worst PM’s since,say, Wellington; and he had a great career prior to No 10. However Brown is easily the worst Chancellor of the post war period (even Anthony Barber is superior) ; has any one man caused quite as much damage to the British economy since Hitler.

          Blair is as culpable as Brown. Blair could have fired Brown on any day from 2002 when it became manifest how incompetent Brown was when he wasn’t following Tory spending plans.

          But because Blair wanted his own little Falklands popularity boost he had to have his own stupid little ‘easy victory’ war in Iraq and so didn’t fire the incompetent jackass because his scheming, calculating, self-serving, evil mind was on other things.

    The number of MPs standing down (or being defeated) may well bring a new look to the benches, but the mindset of those with “MP” after their name may still remain the same. In Luton, and Salford, the cases are made all the more obvious by the MP clearly wanting to hold on for financial gain rather than any sense of moral correctness.

    I would hope as many anti-sleaze (and/or anti-Labour!) candidates find themselves 10 signatures and £500 for candidacies against these two at the very least.

      Mayoral election 2009: The dawn of Davies

      The election promises that struck a chord with 1000s of voters
      What Mayor Davies wants to do…

      MAYOR Davies’ winning “common sense” election manifesto clearly struck a chord with many voters. This is what he pledged to do:

      * Lower the council tax by cutting “extortionate
      ADVERTISEMENT
      levels of bureaucracy and other waste”.

      * “End malpractice and mismanagement in the council.”

      * Cut the mayor’s salary from £63,000 to £30,000.

      * Hold a referendum on the mayoral governance of Doncaster and reduce the number of councillors from 63 to 21.

      * Scrap politically-correct “non-jobs” and encourage the former employees to seek “meaningful employment”.

      * Stop “huge” pay offers to senior council managers.

      etc.

          Fulfilled a few (his salary reduction for one). He’s still working on others.. (against much opposition from Local Councillors).

          Latest idea (Courtesy of the Yorkshire Post 28th Oct):

          Mayor Davies said: “I want to announce a new initiative for our heroic servicemen and women returning from action overseas. I intend to establish firm and lasting links with our armed services to assist those wishing to return to work and become active members of our communities here in Doncaster.

          ….

          Mr Davies said all ex-servicemen and women would be offered a guaranteed interview at the council if they were able to meet the “essential job and person specification criteria”. But Doncaster Council said this was only designed to “encourage” job seekers from the forces because it was “illegal to proactively select a minority group within the recruitment process”.

          • Inspector Cyril Blake says:

            yes, illegal to select anyone who is white, able-bodied, male, and heterosexual. However, if an applicant for the public sector is of non-white ethnicity, has some physical impairment that can be classed as a disability (not have a brain doesn’t count though) is female and best of all, plays for the other team, why welcome on board for your £40K a year non-job tormenting the ratepayers.

    http://www.labourlist.org/economist-bagehot-shoddy-shaming-cameron-europe

    The Economist magazine’s Bagehot column has launched a devastating attack on the Tories:

    “The Tories have renounced the parties of Nicolas Sarkozy and Angela Merkel in favour of a marginal, weak and incoherent new caucus. Their prospects of influencing European deliberations, on matters that they care about such as hedge-fund regulation, have dwindled. They have alienated and baffled other European conservatives. By abdicating the centre of European politics for the fringe, the Tories have convinced many in Europe that they can legitimately be ignored.

    There is, however, one explanation for the manoeuvre, offered in private by some close to Mr Cameron, that makes a bit of sense. Unfortunately, while it helps to rationalise his approach to the European Parliament, it also suggests a much bigger worry.

    Mr Cameron made his pledge to pull out of the EPP during his bid for the Tory leadership in 2005. He needed to placate the wing of his party that still sees Europe as a Franco-German federalist conspiracy, and the EPP as part of it.

    In other words, this one Eurosceptic policy enabled him to pursue others that are liberal and sensible. It allowed him to mould the party into the one that, in a way that would once have seemed improbable, stood to applaud the attack on poverty in his conference speech.

    Seeing the move as a ransom paid to his party may be the best excuse for the moral compromises and apparent political myopia it involved. The switch and the credit it earned may even make it easier for Mr Cameron to take a relatively sane position on the Lisbon treaty if, as expected, it goes into force soon. But if this interpretation—charitable but plausible—mitigates the foolishness of Mr Cameron’s past decisions, it also raises an awkward question about his future.

    It is this: if this shoddy, shaming alliance is the price he was obliged to pay his party for the changes needed to make it seem modern and compassionate, what sort of party is it that Mr Cameron leads? What else will its members demand, and what else—when his popularity and authority wane—will he be obliged to give them, after he becomes prime minister?”

    As we’ve said on LabourList before, this is an argument that has legs and is not going to go away.

    Correct me if I am wrong (and I might be) but did not Black Wednesday cost the UK 3 to 4 billion pounds and Labour have never stopped going on and on about it.

        The gold sold was part of the UK’s reserves. It was thought that the UK had too high a proportion of its reserves in gold. So the gold was sold and foreign currncies were bought in their place. Who knows what those currencies are worth in comparison to the value now if they had been kept as gold.
        So it is correct to refer to the difference in value rather than the cost, since it is feasible but unlikely that the transaction has yielded a profit.

        Is that too difficult to understand?
        As a matter of fact the UK still has a relatively high proportion of its reserves in gold.

          Master Baiter, do you actually know who Norman Lamont is (or was), or the significance of the Threshers reference?

          • Master Baiter says:

            Lamont was once arrested outside some bird’s mews house, crying, tired and emotional. Has an extraordinary vocal delivery and before becoming Chancellor got himself caught up in all sorts of monetarist mumbo jumbo which cost the country dear, leading to rampant inflation and astronomical interest rates and the destruction of innumerable jobs and businesses. Those manifold mistakes occurred prior to the Black Wednesday farce.

          I like the bit where you say “It was thought that the UK had too high a proportion of its reserves in gold”

          Yes it was “thought” that by Gordon and how he was wrong.

          We are not taken in by New Labour chumps harping on about events of 20 years ago under the Tories as a diversion from the fact that the UK has been screwed sideways for the past 12 years by champagne socialist troughers

            Calm down old man, calm down. The fact is that the UK had a much higher proportion of its reserves as gold. Like it or lump it. It’s not that big an issue one way or another. Admittedly perhaps to turgid simpletons it is a big issue.

    To those who want a full referendum then I Suggest you dont vote conservative who are at the moment are the only ones in with a snowball in hells chance of removing these corrupt traitorous twats called Labour who deceived everyone to get in power and then stole the referendum from you.

    For a party offering a referendum then you should of course vote UKIP but…..theres a a very big catch though.

    You will be cutting your nose off to spite your face because UKIP won’t get in anyway so you STILL won’t get a referendum and the vote as good as it feels on the day as you scrape your cross in the box with the blunt pencil will have been wasted. You will though stand a very good chance of falling into Browns trap, splitting the vote and giving him another 5 years and guess what? You still won’t get a referendum and in fact you will just be one hell of a lot worse off.

    This coming election is not to save the NHS, this or that it is to save this whole country. This election must be about the total utter destruction of Labour and all its forms. This is a watershed. People have admitted they were wrong to vote Labour and felt conned but fail this time and it is all over, no going back, finished, a done deal. When Labour are destroyed then and only then can we start on the next lot and work out what to do about the EU but until these corrupt lying toerags are gone nothing can happen and just expect more of the same.

    The New Labour project is now complete.

    In 12 years, we have more doctors, nurses and teachers than ever before. We have more ploice officers than ever before. Crime is down to record levels and waiting times have fallen. We have introduced the minimum wage and passed progressive legislation to end discrimination on grounds of race, gender or sexuality. We have made Britain into a fairer, more prosperous, multicultural, vibrant society.

    Thanks to Gordon Brown, Britain is now poised to emerge from the recession. The Tories were wrong on the recession, wrong on the recovery and their “do nothing” policy would have made things even worse.

    With the passing of the Lisbon Treaty, New Labour’s vision of a Britain at the heart of a dynamic, integrated, multicultural Europe has finally been realised.

    The Tories have been wrong on everything and their Little Englanders in Surrey and Sussex can go to sleep tonight knowing they have failed and Britain is at the heart of the EU – thanks to the progressive policies of Gordon Brown, David Miliband, Blair and Mandelson.

    The socialist bastards and bedwetters are seeking some comfort in the fact that although they’re in line for being tossed out of government for their monumental incompetence they have somehow managed to spite the entire UK electorate by reneging on a referendum promise and reducing the magnitude of their impending doom not to a national government being thrown out but the state government of Rhode Island being slung out.

    Whatever helps the incompetent economy-wrecking, evil bastards to sleep at night.

        Destroys the economy. Destroys the entire social fabric of the UK. Condemns our children and grandchildren to either a: years of penury paying off his debts or b:catastrophic inflation then reneges on the EU referendum and turns the entire country over to like-minded socialist kackasses in Strasbourg.

        WTF.

        That’s just plain rude. I could understand if he’d done all this for some misguided ‘greater good’ but it just seems like pure wanton destruction to me.

        Economic, social and constitutional vandalism. This is like the sack of Rome. Just pure wanton destruction as an end in itself.

        It’s astonishing.

    What did Margaret do wrong?

    She has worked very hard for her constituents, and has been very active as an MP in the last 6 months.

    The Labour Party will not tolerate dissent. Now good citizens, turn off your computers, and watch some lovely programmes the Ministry of Truth has organised to keep you all calm.

    You may switch off NOW!

    Cameron back story is made up. He was shat out of Tony Blair’s arse and grown in pod. His leasershit of the Nu Blu Liebore Trust Plus Foundation Party is a continuation of the Satanic Blair lizard manifesto.

    THE THIRD ROUNDEL says:

    Guido will watch with interest to see if Julie kirkbride will stand again. Many will be so watching. Bromsgrove has not been put out to the candidate`s list and it is widely held that Cameron is backing Kirkbride to the hilt. The election campaign should be interesting. Local press, media, and candidates will no doubt focus on the following.:

    - the switching of funds between husband and wife thus swindling hundreds of thousands of pounds from the public purse (millions over 12 years).

    - the claim for £50,000 for a flat which already had space for a third bedroom.

    - brother Ian Kirkbride has had no housing/living costs for 12 years (not 5 as reported) a benefit for a family member worth hundreds of thousands of pounds at taxpayer costs.

    - large payments made to paper companies by both husband and wife at public cost.

    - annual payments of up to £20,000 (not £12,000 as reporetd) to sister Karen for alleged secretarial work of which there is no evidence – a benefit worth over £250,000 over 12 years. (How many secretaries does Kirkbride need anyway?)

    - petty cash payments to mother Barbara fpr unrecorded secretarial work.

    - large payments made to brother Ian Kirkbride for `equipment` and unrecorded `computer work`.

    -the bribing of stooges in the local tory party, particularly the Dent family (Rita Dent paid lavishly as Secretary, daughter Naomi paid as `nanny`and husband Alan Dent installed as constituency Chairman, therevy creating a publicly-funded organisation to lobby and spin for Kirkbride.

    - misuse generally of the expenses and allowance system for personal gain.

    There is much much more to come. Little wonder therefore that both Kirkbride and MacKay are keeping such a low profile in the hope that the issue will go away. Not a penny has been paid back apart from a small token amount by Kirkbride. MacKay has told Cameron he cannot afford to pay anything back because they need money for Angus`s Eton fees (a very small amount in relation to the total amounts swindled). It looks as if the whole national election campaign will be dominated by Bromsgrove sleaze. It will be disastrous for the Tories and Cameron seems oblivious to this fact.

    There is much more and worse to come.

    If Cameron has any sense he will publicly ditch Kirkbride now. It is but a small step in comparison with his ditching of the Lisbon referndum. And unlike that decision it is one which will be of enormous benefit to him.

    The evidence is strong – Kirkbride should be prosecuted.

      But you’re relying on the braindead inhabitants of Bromsgrove to do some thinking…

      Good luck with that one.
