So who you voting for if you can?

In terms of the votes in London then...


For London Mayor (where you have 2 votes).

Brian Rose. Mainly because he wears smart suits and drinks his own piss. Gotta respect somebody who does both of those things.

Lawrence Fox. Just for the LOLZ and I liked the Christmas message he did with Calvin Robinson.


London Assembly elections (Croydon and Sutton constituency)

Robert Poll - Reform Party.

London Assembly elections

Londependence. A load of bats*** crazy loons who I probably disagree with on any and everything but one of them, John Halnan, is both a pal and also Palace. Works for me!

I expect there will be a low turnout. File under: couldn't be bothered.

In my area there are ballot papers for :

1 Police and Crime commissioner.
2.West Sussex County Council Elections.

Of course my 'X' will be against the Conservative candidate in both elections !

Police Commissioners are a ridiculous and pointless waste of money.

Bailey for Mayor (vote against Khan more than a vote for Bailey)

Laurence Fox as my second choice. I don't agree with everything he says but I don't like that he was hounded out of acting by his own union and the rest of the luvvies so a sympathy vote.

Khan will win comfortably so no doubt the headlines tomorrow on the BBC and Guardian will big this up.

 


One more point

I have a suspicion Binface will poll better than expected, perhaps 300+

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Fox and Piper were married in the village where I live and they were regulars in our local pub. They were always fun and we were sorry when they split and moved away.

I like that he speaks his mind against the PC brigade and if I lived in London I'd vote for him even though he doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

 


Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

I tip my hat to him.

CrazyBadger Flag Ware 06 May 21 11.16am

round where I live, there's been nothing - I have no idea who the candidates are... I don't even remember a polling card arriving. it's like our household has been forgotton, but a quick check on social media shows that many have the same issue.

I'm in a pretty strong Tory area - so I guess noone can be bothered to contest it.

If I did get The opportunity to Vote, i'd vote for the one who stops closing schools to turn them into Polling Stations.

We have two votes down here:

A PCC for which post none of the candidates have canvassed, and from their online 'personal statements' none of them are fit for purpose, and

A village referendum on adopting the 'Village Plan'

I shall only be exercising my franchise in one poll.

If Labour cannot win back the voters who deserted them for the Brexit party then they are dead in the water. Easy to get caught up in the hyperbole but if this result pans out as it seems to be, then serious questions have to be asked about what future there is for Labour in its current form.

The Hampstead-Hartlepool dichotomy has never been so stark for Labour and the wider left. Simply put, not fit for purpose.

Gotta vote for Niko, he has some great policies:

Boris Johnson will be forced to shush.

Turn off all power in London once a year and call it Londoff.

Introduce stop and serve which will include free school meals.

A second eye will be added to the London Eye so it becomes the London Eyes.

These are the policies of a serious contender.

LOL at Labour.

There is going to be a constant barrage around why Labour got so badly spanked in Hartlepool but what on earth possessed them to put up a candidate who was a Remainer, had already lost a seat in December 2019, in a constituency that had, I believe, the highest support for Leave in 2016?


Again you are only faced with two options. Either that Labour are utterly moronic. Or that they did not want to win this seat? Because there is zero logic in their candidate selection process.

Starmer gifted Johnson an 80 seat majority in 2019. And now quite literally presenting him what should be an absolute rock-solid Labour seat?

Is Starmer a double agent? And that question is not tounge in cheek either. Because this man has put his knee on Labours neck and ain't showing any sign of standing up anytime soon.

We could find no information on any of the PCC candidates in Horsham. Couple of spoilt ballot papers from my household ( something I have never done before) but how they expect you to vote for someone you know nothing about is a mystery
