Would You Vote....

[West Ender]

.....for Esther Rantzen? Personally, I can't stand the woman but her decision to put herself forward as a prospective MP is in line with her apparent bid for sainthood. What do you think?

[shillelagh]

Nope i wouldnt vote for her ..

[Eric]

I googled her; read through a couple of sites .... so what's the problem with her I don't know about?

[Margaret Pilkington]

No, because she has been an entertainer..in the most loose sense of the word, it doesn't follow that she would make a good politician......but then would we recognise a good politician?....we have had such dross for such a long time.

How long have you got?

I don't like people who flutter their eyelashes and simper while sharpening the knives to back-stab anyone who gets in the way of their progress. Esther has a "public face" full of sympathy for everyone but her real priority is always Number One. She makes a great deal of her tragic widowhood without ever referring to the fact that she deliberately stole her late husband from his first wife and has admitted as much in the past. She was also instrumental in getting her one-time boss, Bernard Braden, sacked from his consumer-watchdog type programme - so she could take his place. Not my sort of person, definitely not my sort of MP.

I agree - a blond version of Edwina Currie

She doesn't want to share his apple If she's going into politics she probably wants the whole damned thing ... and the tree it grew on.

[accyman]

if she tried to eat an apple through a letter box just to see if somone with teeth like her could actually manage to do it then i would give her my vote

other wise no because she set up child line and i cant hit my kids anymore

[flashy]

no cos she looks like a horse

[jaysay]

Well you can tell what I think about the lovely Esther, I'd sooner have Graham Jones

[grannyclaret]
