Breaking: LibDems Lose Deposit in Corby
UKIP Come Third as Labour Take Seat
In without a doubt the most amusing news of an otherwise dull by-election results day, the LibDems came fourteen votes short of keeping their deposit in Corby. The humiliation was complete after two recounts and heated discussions between the LibDems, the returning officer and an electoral commission official. UKIP came third as Labour won back Louise Mensch’s old seat. Mr Mozzarella got closer to the LibDems than the LibDems did to UKIP. They’re having a whip round for Clegg’s candidate…
The lib dems lost their deposit in corby and the con lost it in manchester. a good day for the ruling coalition (HAHAHA). Serves then right
Why is there a picture of Alky Campbell sucking on a lemon? Cant you get any pictures of Lib Dumps looking like they are bothered?
That’s Clegg numbnuts.
Can you not spot the irony. He does look like Alky on that photo though
LibDems lose deposit – BBC Views Online don’t seem to have had the space to mention this significant aspect of the by-election result amid their glee about Labour “seizing” Corby form the eeeeeeeevil Torieeeeeeeeeees.
No change there then.
Lo and behold, they’ve managed to add it in now – must ave got some extra HDD space and bandwidth in….
The Liberal Democrats, in fourth place, lost their deposit despite asking for two recounts…….confirmed
The BBC website shows four women counting votes. They are all wearing high-viz. Never realised that this task was so hazardous.
I was also intrigued. Is he on the vinegar stroke?
LibDems didn’t lose their deposit in the Essex PCC election – they didn’t have a candidate!! Nor did Greens.
Do we think these results will stop the usual suspects giving Greens and LibDems pride of place at election times and in current affairs generally.,. Ooohh no it won’t.
UKIP third at Corby with over 14% of the vote and the Limp-Dems loosing their deposit. Cameron’s arrogance has torpedoed ANY chance of a Tory victory for at least a decade it’s time he went. Ferage must be pissing himself with laughter for in spite of the deliberate efforts by the media to ignore or ridicule UKIP they are not only stitching up the Tories but are making the Liberals look as popular as a fart in a space suit he’s got both parties now on the ropes and it serves the fuckers right
If the electorate do not get a binding in/out referendum before the next general election the Tory party is toast. Look at the results of the recent election in Maidenhead, Tories gone Liberal in massive loss of votes to UKIP. In 2013 this Tory government will allow unfettered access to Rumanians and Bulgarians who will automatically be entitled to benefits. If a political party was ever contemplating political suicide today’s Tories are setting a benchmark. You couldn’t make it up
Vote UKIP YIPEEEE!
+ me
The Pro-Europe party won comfortably in all three seats. The electorate worried about the EU? I don’t think so!
Pro Europe? More like Government spongers.
Me too – UKIP is the way to hurt the cabal of three -
+ several thousand!
dream on UKRAPPER!
Mr mozzerella to stand for a main party next time, what a boy
Too cheesy by half.
Are you listening now Camerloon?
VOTE UKIP!
I say you jolly chaps! My jolly chum Joules says there’ll be an absolute landslide at the GE! What?
Cons are good! Vote Con. Labours was good boys, they lets me in. Cons good, too, they let me stays and gives me many monies and big house. I soon gets even bigger house.
Theresa May good girl, too. She happy me here. She gives me many policemens to looks after me while I make many plans to kills you all.
Except that it was a judge, not a politician who determined that result.
Still, don’t let profound ignorance get in the way, it’s only the interweb thingy.
You’re starting to sound a little desperate, Ed. Nobody will vote UKIP at the next election as they realise it’s a vote for you.
vote EUkip get Labour!!
oh.. and I get to keep my wage!
in fact… we get to keep everything! cos we’ll never publish our expenses!
Vote LabLibCon get the same lying shite over and over again.
I was much better off under Labour anyway. Go UKIP
Quite so what what.
“Crikey Mikey, G0lly Gosh!
Vote for Dave, ‘the inbred toff’!”
Spiffing election slogan, what what?
Guffff-haw haw haw haw haw haw haw!
My butler came up with this one – I’m not so keen:
“Vote for David Camoron,
Ev’rything he does is wrong,
he is an utter f*cking mong,
but thank Christ with luck he’ll soon be gone.”
What the f%ck does it matter? Name me one thing that has changed since the Fabian Plant took over??
Andy Sawford (Lab) 17,267 (48.41%, +9.71%)
Christine Emmett (C) 9,476 (26.57%, -15.63%)
Margot Parker (UKIP) 5,108 (14.32%)
Jill Hope (LD) 1,770 (4.96%, -9.48%)
SNP didn’t even get on the leader board I see. That’s you fooked Salmond.
Pro Europe 53%
Not quite as Pro Europe 26%
Anti Europe 14%
Ha ha ha
Government Spongers 53%
Not quite 100% Government spongers 26%
People that work for a living and support the bloated state 14%
Fact.
Nill Hope [LD] would have been more appropriate
The last time the Lib Dems had a problem with a deposit was with mark oaten!
Meanwhile how did Labour in Bristool go?
Will the female elected be called Mares by any chance?
Wow with this news Nigel won’t have enough time to work out his expenses for the next 10 years…..
It sucks being you doesn’t it?
Never. Having a nice warm hand up you is the best. You should try it!
I don’t know if ‘Nigel’ has dodgy ex’s or not, but what I do know is I’d rather his dodgy expenses than that lot behind the new Iron Curtain.
What is it we have paid to them so far this year170 billion, shurly ‘Nigel’ don’t fiddle that much?
he doesn’t fiddle me much either!
Labour, Conservatives and Lib Dems lost voters to us.
Clock is ticking on rusty Dave now – and Clegg really should surrender his British citizenship and start cosying up to one of those EU countries quick so he can make Commissioner.
UKIP have been struggling in East Midlands since Kilroy. A slightly risky vote at the Euros and no point in them even standing at the GE, unless they’re desperate to lose their deposits.

You are rattled!
Junius is a fully paid up fruit loop and I encourage everyone to go to his site…….for a good laugh at the bitter tripe he dribbles out.
he IS a loop, and the site is poorly set up, but EUkip have lost in the courts vs G-LW.
UKIP may join a coalition government and enjoy a bit of power like the Lib Dems – around about 2092!!
Who are ukip?
They’re the party you always briefly mention after interviewing the Lib-Dim’s and the Green’s.
I blame the parents…
Libs Dems hahahahahanahahahanahahahahahahahahahahanahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahababababababahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
Ha
General Election Now!
No.
Oh I’m not sure you know.
I will go nuclear on this
More to come Nick.
What a wonderful couple of days. Lib Dems and sally B both humiliated.
Hurrah.
You can’t spell Nick baby, it’s “unclear”
Polly put the kettle on.
Didn’t UKIP set out to win Corby? The “first real test” after the eurozone crisis and yet another referendum cop-out by Call-Me-Dave, etc.
I am sure Farage and his cheerleaders will celebrate the result but the truth is, UKIP are extremely unlikely to win any seats in Westminster in the foreseeable future.
They might win them for Labour.
Don’t you mean Lib-Dim’s?
Just like the LibLabCon are extreamly unlikely to stop the EUSSR taking us over (a barrel).
It’s not about winning seats at Westminster……the strategy is focussed on the 2014 European elections and is to get enough Tory core vote to vote UKIP in protest and thus scare enough Tory backbenchers who suddenly fear for their safe seats to put pressure on Cameron to block EU budget and to adopt more eurosceptic policies. It a almost dead cert now that Cameron will veto EU Budget if he cannot get a deal that will satisfy his eurosceptics as this result will embolden them further to vote down government legislation especially any to do with EU
How dare you eavesdrop on a private conversation with me and Nige!
If David Cameron was asked what he wanted from the Chinese Takeaway he would order Chicken Jalfrezei
The vegetarian chicken one is the best
I’m just that kinda guy!
Ho Ho Ho
Xmas soon
Less Coppers on Beat
Move on Plebs
Jay may well be correct that UKIP cannot win any seats…..but they can certainly bugger the Tories’ election prospects unless Cameron wakes up and does the right thing.
I’m not holding my breath though. Cameron is not a Tory and is up to eyes in the European “project”.
Exactly, the present ruling clique don’t work for us.
Don’t put money on UKIP not gaining any seats, unless you enjoy losing money that is.
actually it will be Ukip losing deposits once again like we have for the last 20 years
Put money on that too if you want, though I doubt even you don’t believe that the polls have been consistently correct. UKIP have replaced the Lib-Dim’s as party number three.
Onwards and upwards, the LabLibCon trick, is a busted flush.
This is the real news. How were the SNP polling in the 80s ?
When the Lib Dums lose their deposit nothing else matters. A good result.
Still trying to fiddle the Expense account?.
Just part of the job spec old boy
True I may sound a bit like Zippy from Rainbow but at least I don’t look like Wallace!
You leave my Rachel alone – she sounds like me, not bloody Zippy!
No, you look like Shergar on a good day.
Sorry to spoil the party, but can anyone tell me what will change?
While the LabLibCon share power? Nothing, vote different and get different politics. The same old crowd will give you the same old shite, until you say enough!
Hope the good people of Humberside don’t let us down on 2nd preference.
Hope not cos I get more pies
Another £70k a year of taxpayers money into prezza’s pocket!! +Sigh+
See told you Dave
I would like to be the first to sincere send my heart felt thanks to Dave, Nick &
little Ed, thanking each one of them for all of there efforts in making “U K I P” a
strong political force & is the only party thats INCREASING its membership !!
Remember VOTE U K I P……… U K I P………….U K I P
PS To the ConsLieLaborLibDems Alliance Please keep up your excellent
work 24/7
Just joined the club..
How dumb are you lot in Corby? Where is the logic in making a protest by voting for the FUCKING IDIOTS WHO MADE THE MESS IN THE FIRST PLACE? Idiots.
Dey is just voting against the government, whoever the government is – it’s traditional, innit.
In the scheme of things the result changed nothing, except show that the Lib-Dim’s are finished and that UKIP are now party number three and rising fast.
Welcome to Corby, home for fuckwits
Trouble is that even those with good memories die off in time. Labour (in name only) rely heavilly on that so they can paint themselves as a “good guys” all over again. It’s all in my next documentary “Sex Lies and Rinsing The Electorate” . My marketing minions say they’re not happy with the title but what do they know!
Correct look at it all kicking off in the holy land. With us paying a war monger to be a peace envoy. Well thats untill he gets the job of dictator of euroland
Too true and typical “simulator left volatilis” behaviour as my pal Boris likes to put it!
The labour winner in Corby has been through the party brainwashing programme. 1997 TO 2010 never happened.
He used to manage PhilHope’s constituency office so he also knows about how to maximise the use of expenses etc.
1997 to 2007 was a purple patch. I used to look across to the the ever increasing Liverpool skyline and think “we’re living in a new Edwardian Age”. Mind you, look how that ended.
I confess to being a little disappointed. I had hoped UKIP would push the tories into third in Corby. I thought that might give No10 a bit of a jolt and make them realise they have to have a tougher approach to the EU.
Yewbbut it will bolster the Euroskeptic right of the party thus: “See Dave – the most pro Euro party lost it’s deposit and we falied to win because we’re losing too many punters crosses to the nutters in UKIP!”
Correction, nutters who keep taking your voters away.
Bit of a problem getting them back on your side, when you describe them like that. Though you and your type are probably too thick to realise what you are doing, which is all good for UKIP.
Well you know what they say – ignorance is bliss! Got too rush got a date with THE modern dinosaur that me and Boris spend hours chucking over. Tootle pip.
“President van Rompuy, Sir, my Lord, when you walk all over me while I lie prostrate on the floor, would you please, Sir, your magnificence, wear some silk socks rather than jackboots, which hurt my delicate pink skin so much. You won’t? Oh, well never mind, Sir, please, walk some more upon me.”
Songs for Dave:
You’ll never walk alone
Walking my baby back home
Doing the Lambeth Walk
Out walking after midnight
does mister mozzarella have a cheesy grin
or just a greesy chin ???
How terribly, terribly sad.
…. this is serious!!!!
It’s a another messy day
To paraphrase David Steele….Go back to your constituencies and prepare for oblivion !!
Steel. Steele was a cricketer.
My strategy worked– we pulled off the upset, and it’s all down to me!
Excuse me whilst I cry tears of joy over my brilliance!
2015, here we come!
http://order-order.com/2012/08/09/watson-tells-labour-spinners-to-brief-that-they-will-lose-corby/
I live in Corby…if the road to Downing Street runs through here and we are so important why do I feels as thought it wont make any difference?
it mite be betr if i lerned to spel propr
Awe Pru Freed b4 u rush inter print.
With the PCC results so far that AV thingy wouldn’t have worked out as the LibDems were hoping either.
With all candidates bar the first two being eliminated, I wonder what proportion
of those bothering to vote had both their preferences ignored completely.
we are not making too much fuss about what we actually DO in the EU, because erm, what little of it is done with this lot
http://efd-eu.blogspot.co.uk/
The winning candidate in Corby said that Cameron had betrayed the British people.
Absolutely right, but not for what he thinks…
Corby demonstrates the devisive effect of the eu issue…ukip’s showing is probably the only truely significant movement. The labour vote at 48% is still well under their 55% 1997 result and only 8% higher than 2005 where they polled 40%. The collapse of the lib dem vote was to be expected.
Turnout this time at 44% down from 69% at 2010 general election is despite all the focus put on the contest but is a mid term being used as a spear head for rolling out the One Nation narrative the Eddie boys are praying will fool the majority of the people most of the time.
What a corrupt system that rips you off for five grand if you’re an independent party with fresh ideas. Totally undemocratic and only serves to maintain the status quo.
The sooner we can be rid of the three main parties the better.
Vote UKIP.
Maybe even get Be-En-P past 10% That will give the Beeb and the Shampain Socialists the shits.
Yeah almost worth voting for those racist leftie bastards just to watch the BBC squirm.
Corby is a typical minor mid-term blip.
I am absolutely convinced that my twin strategies of hardly cutting the deficit at all, and progressing the important PC policy of gay marriage are both vote winners.
As suggested by Vague and Laws & Co., Cabinet Meetings are now held sitting on toads tools at the bottom of No.10′s garden. We all have a lovely time listening to the fairies.
Don’t forget to add, tripling tuition fees, fiscal drag, 61% marginal rate of tax, loss of child benefit, slashing of defence budget and the real popular huge increase in international aid.
The perfect recipe for electoral suicide..
The Corby swing repeated nationally would leave the tories with 39 seats. As “Michael Green” so perceptively put it today: “Ed Miliband is in trouble”.
If your aunt had balls, she’d be you uncle.
Or Ann Coulter.
2 pints of bitter and a packet of pork scratchings….. oops wrong pub ….sorry…
… shit forgotten what I was going to say now!
Labour’s victory in Corby is a clear endorsement of my leadership. They know I’m a strong leader because I shafted my own brother. Imagine what I could do to the nation ? Labour’s ‘Wan-Nation’ is making an impression on the voters. They remember how we left Britain a sick (wan)nation in 1979 and 2010. Once the Tory-led Coalition has cleared the deficit, then we will be re-elected and start spending again on the things that matter like jobs in the on-shore windmill industry. There won’t be any Tory-style ?U-turns (although we will agree to increase the EU budget). Britain must be at the table where I can use my great influence on Mrs. Merkel and our wonderful President Herman ‘Whatshisname’. We will be tough on immigration once the population reaches 70 million.
Remember we want a Wan-Nation Britain.
No really, tis but a triffle or maybe a custard, gadzooks I say, yah boo to thet Farage fellu, I will just invade somewhere, somehere warm, worked for Tonee
I’m his heir, you know
