how can you claim victory when he had 5000 votes less than at the general election when for the rest of the country polls are saying tories are having a larger share of the vote.this was nothing about protecting civil liberties this was cheap political point scoring in the biggest tory stronghold in england.tories civil liberties dont go together.they used the police as a political football against the miners ,tried to curb free speach by passing the protest bill,tried to get all working rights abolished and opposed the national mininuim wage.made cuts to schools and education budgets stopped any investment in any local services till they were reaching breaking point.they ripped off the british taxpayer by selling off the infrastructure of britain to their mates ie british gas ,british telecom ,british rail,the british waterboard.if they never sold these companies off we wouldnt be in the mess we are now.the gas ,water,electric could keep the price of fuel down not reeking any profit for their chosen few of shareholders....civil liberties you are a joke and always will be.you are the scum of the earth you would rather everybody starve than affect your chosen few profits..you would rather the working class work 90 hours a week and make you more money you have no social concience.
