Castration Strategy Goes Mainstream

Antony Calvert has raised a five figure sum from small online donations towards his attempt to beat Ed Balls in Morley and Outwood. The Daily Politics reported on his campaign and his online fund-raising efforts using YouFund.Me:

Where will you be for the “Balls moment”?

      It was Christmas Eve in the harem
      All the eunuchs stood around
      A hundred nubile ladies
      Reclining on the ground
      When in strode the Sultan
      To gaze at his marble halls
      He said “What do you want for Christmas, boys?”
      And the eunuchs answered -
      “Tidings of comfort and joy,
      Comfort and joy,
      O-o tidings of comfort and joy”

    I found it funny where Balls was stumbling a little over how you get elected:
    “It’ll be decieded by people in a ballot box or sumthink like that?”

    Nah. What a load of Balls. Think what he wanted to say was:
    “The election will be decided by sackfulls of postal votes from dead people!”

    Shame that the Unite Union will pump money in to help and protect Ed Balls.

    Anyway we can find out how much?

      Trouble is Genghiz, journalists don’t think Charles Kennedy had a drink problem. Compared to your average hack he’s tea-total.

        Adios el Gordo says:

        I think it would be great if the lib dems were the official opposition – at least the government (tory) would be held to account and challenged in a proper way instead of these devisive class war stupid points by labour. labour really are screwed – should have binned him when you had the chance……

        i am howevr delighted – the further from the despatch box the better as far as I am concerned and perhaps they can be afforded the same rudeness they have been dolling out to the rest of the parties and as soon as gordon takes his time to speak they all get up and walk out.

        Gordon is so out of touch it is terrifying – when you take out all of the electorate who would vote labour no matter who was in charge and the polite population who suffer him because he is pm he is screwed.

        there is absolutely no one i know who supports labour anymore – some of them will not vote tory but will vote ukip and the rest lib dems (these are usual labour voters)

        Well done Nick – I hope you become the opposition and firmly kick Brown in the Balls.

          Anonymous says:

          and Clegg, remember to now complain about the BBC bias in favour of labour – there might actually be some point in doing it now if libdems became the opposition. This afternoon, on BBC news, we’ve followed GB around a Tescos in St.Leonards – I don’t recall either of the other 2 leaders getting such devoted attention during this campaign. little Jane Hill nearly wet her knickers with excitement.

      This is great news. Destruction of the big political parties is just what the doctor ordered.

      Destruction of Labour first would be the icing on the cake.

    A post on politcal betting by lauranceallen reads

    If Comres figures happened

    Tories would have 287 seats

    Labour 186 seats

    This is not harming Tories at all. Labour is in trouble.

        Quite.

        Interesting how those making the most obvious and unarguable points about the problems facing Britain are being virtually ignored. Frank Field’s article in the Telegraph setting out the three big things – deficit and debt, immigration, EU – facing us, received no comment at all from the major parties.

        Canada had a very similar problem some years ago. An incoming government took the drastic action of cutting spending to align it with tax-take in one fell swoop. Some departments had their budgets cut by 60%. Within two years, the economy was growing again, and all was well – people very quickly adapted to the new reality, and got on with it.

        I have relations who have close links with both Canada and Britain, and live in both. They rate Canada by far the better place to live currently.

        New Zealanders may tell a similar tale – NZ is the emigrants’ destination of choice.

        Whoever takes power after the election – don’t mess about, sort it out. Faffing about is, in the long run, fair to nobody.

    Here we go. What have I been saying? Libdems could edge labour into second. brown’s strategy of cozying to Clegg could backfire massivley, and what do we see.

    hohohohohohoho

    Of course, that libdem boucne will soften, but not that much, and it’s a snowball – a credibility issue is overcome. Labour votes are going to fucking cascade to the libdems, and that’s just fine for Dave. The marginals he cares about are lab/tory, not tory/libdem

    Oh Gordon, you great big fucking useless, useless fucker.

    next week’s debate is going to be terrific, and there won’t be a third.

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2010/apr/16/glasgow-stephen-purcell-drug-police

    Will the dirt begin to come out? SNP are going to hammer labour in scotland, libdems hammer them in the inner cities, tories in the shires and suburbs.

    It’s a perfect storm.

    And there in the eye of the hurricane we spy Gordon, hoping from foot to foot, desperate ofr a whizz ‘cus everybody is picking on him and his blackmailing buddies aren’t ther eto help him.

    And the question remains – who put Gordon where he is today? Who pushed him up the greased pole? Who took this massive failure, and made him PM?

    And why?

    John Bull says:

    Ed Milliband is being far too complacent with his re – constituted Doncaster North seat. He has not set foot in Donny fo over a month and is rarely there anyway, as he mistakenly thinks his seat is a given.

    Think again

    The world turned upside down in Doncaster with the expulsion of a labour mayor for Peter Davies’ English Democrats. This is hardly mentioned, but its hard to describe the seismic shift in local politics that is. Its like Henley electing the Socialist Workers Party.

    Beware O minister for tidal change your arrogance and treachery:

    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
    And on the pedestal these words appear:
    `My name is Milibandias, King of Kings:
    Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!’
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
    The lone and level sands stretch far away”.

    to Donny station and back to London, never to set foot here again.

      The Doncaster Mayor is a very interesting bloke. Heard him a few months ago relating how they had so many councillors they had formed sectarian groupings and the council had to have people to sort them out. He is a great beleiver in fewer councillors not more.
      I also read there is a real attempt to oust him so he deserves great praise. If what we know about the way embedded Labour activists will stop at no obscene act to discredit an opponent, then God knows what it’s like for the Doncaster Mayor.

        udderly 'orrible says:

        “The Doncaster Mayor” – its a revivalist tale.

        A recent TV report suggested the grass roots changes he was making might well lead on to a wider clean sweep. Most times its the hard work at local level that lays foundations for big upsets.

        Long live The Doncaster Mayor”

Mr Bryant and Mr Watson managing to make the whole hacking affair look like a farce – the more they moan the less I care about the whole subject! So partisan it beggars belief at all costs. They cannot rise above it ! If I was to call the PM a ‘liar’ I would want to be VERY sure.
