Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

I've had my internet accounts hacked in the past week and have been deliberately offline but just couldn't resist today, just having a pie (ruins your appetite between canvasses) and reading the fascinating Conservative posts across Hyndburn.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

I was once a proxy voter for my (now ex) partner who was a long distance lorry driver and was away from home weekdays.

He had to agree to the application made in writing long beforehand.

Maybe the proxy voting system is being misused - quite possible.

Now that postal voting is available, proxy voting isn't neccessary and should be abolished.

Ta fer that Ken, interesting to note the obnoxious one from ossy is claiming "TWICE" as much as the nearest one too him.:rolleyes: n 8 times as much as some.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

So of all the things you thought to do today it was signing up to Accyweb and posting something negative regarding Labour in the hotly-contested seat of Barnfield? I have just spoken to Graham who is currently canvassing Oswaldtwistle and he has asked me to post this statement for him:

'There are some concerns in Barnfield, there are an unusually large number of proxy voters. No one from the Labour party can understand this. We do not know any of the proxy voters personally and no one with connection to the Labour party has been asked to cast a proxy vote. A lot of people in Woodnook would appear to be proxy voting and many do not seem to have ever voted previously and we are looking further into this. We have received a list of who is casting a proxy vote and it appears that a majority of proxy votes are being cast by Conservative councillors, Conservative candidates, wives, friends and neighbours of Conservative associates and people apparently connected in some way to the Conservative party or the Conservative candidates. Again, we are trying to get exact numbers on this. We have been informed by the Chief Executive of the Council that the Conservatives are making allegations about Barnfield but no one seems to be able to fully comprehend what is being stated. No one from the Labour party has been approached by the police and I have emailed the Chief Inspector expressing concerns, who responded immediately and has indicated that after the election he and his staff will follow up on the points raised.'

On a nicer note, Graham is getting stopped on virtually every door and a lot of people have stated how nice it is to see their MP on their doorstep.

A copy of your post has now been saved for future reference.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

Well, I was about to condemn this post for it's lack of proof and suggest the poster gives us a link.

Then I find myself disgusted by the first post that follows it, Ken, you are worse than this poster, be ashamed, be very ashamed of your accusations.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

My best guess is we will never hear from Thefulltruth again.:rolleyes: suspect shes hit the road pmsl

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

I look forward to keeping a copy of your apology to the whole of AccyWeb, for future reference of course, tarring everyone with your own brand of bile, rather than argue with this newbie, I do hope what is claimed is wrong, but somehow, even if it is, I suspect you have done more harm with your attitude to the site and it's members, than if you had allowed us to answer without your outburst against the site.

Let me humbly apologise for listening to you in the past, I will rectify such mistakes in the future.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

graham jones obviously hasnt authorised or passed on an appology yet hes probably too busy been welcomed on doorsteps in ossy even PB's hahahahaha :D

newsflash

we even let the jehovas have a few words were just nice like that

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

I refer the honourable member Less to the 2010 General Election where half a dozen Conservative supporters and members turned up days before the vote and posted once or twice then disappeared forever.

How you managed to take that as a slur on yourself I don't know.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

it may have read better if you had said

"Hmmm, I see that the Conservitive trait of throwing up new members at election time is still going strong."

i doubt accyweb as a site asks either party to join up with a fake username and cast slurs

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

I don't consider it a slur to myself but to the whole of AccringtonWeb and it's members that remember how you were never away from the site with your own version of the truth, yes, I actually believed you and the other Labour members that had been keen to use the freedom of these pages for your own campaigning.

You now seem to be the only one that now posts, and if what you post isn't something condescending as if suddenly you know all we know ****** all, it's rubbish like this:-
As I have already stated if you hadn't been so quick to condemn the site, you may have seen the site condemning the guy that posted his unsubstantiated statement.

Anyone that claims to tell the full truth is like a loyal Labour member on here, not likely to be heard very often.

If AccyWeb has gone down as much in your opinion as the Labour Councillors that used to post have in ours, then I can understand your statement, perhaps we have outgrown you?

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

From what I have heard Graham Jones hasn't been arrested as the original poster of this information said, but was questioned by the police last night, with further inquires to be made, mid you its been a little different at this election, we haven't had a daily rundown of political diatribe, which can only be good for Accyweb

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
 

That's what I heard John form our Tory Candidate.

Very likely, Less.
