Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

Electoral Calculus predicts that Labour will hold Hyndburn in the coming election.
I sincerely hope they are wrong....after all our current representative has done little or nothing for the area.
He won't be getting MY vote....I will vote anything but Labour.

they are not that daft. its more of what they can cream off in their job as mp,s before they get a proper job in the house of lords.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

Except that the House of Lords is NOT a proper job.
A proper job would entail actually DOING something rather than being paid for just turning up.
Remember that these old duffers(and I am an old duffer myself) have a fine life....they can get a taxi to the HoL paid for by us....they can have their fill of gin and tonics at subsidised rates.....and they can have a very good lunch....again subsidised by us.

Now, forgive me if I tell you that this is Most definitely......NOT work.
Wouldn't I like over £300 a DAY for snoozing on those benches.
Some folk do not have that kind of income for a week of hard graft....and NO perks.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

thats the big difference, they are supporting themselves NOT there constituents, and sadly some are too dumb to see it.

was meant in jest but they would not see it that way. most pointless thing since Love Island.

Sorry, MH....thank you for the clarification.
My sense of humour seems to be missing at the moment.
I put it down somewhere and now have not a clue where it is!

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

Probably in the polling booth when you went to vote on the referendum.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

there is nowt to laugh at anymore. even if there is you might be frightened to do so in fear of it causing offence to some one or minority group that live in the foothills of the andes.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

I wonder if it will still be there when I go to vote this time.
I somehow doubt it.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

That is so TRUE....the world has gone mad.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

Here’s some facts that you may find useful if any Labour Lackeys come calling at your door and starting spouting from their party script.

A scene also replicated in most towns across the rest of Britain - I wonder how many of these will also be voting here on the 12th ? ( times 26 to account for the other member states not having an election in their homelands))

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

I never trusted Johnson from the outset. For one he cowardly backed down when given the first opportunity to go for party leader (and thus PM). He has also consistently made cardinal errors that someone holding high office should capably avoid BUT.... given the fact that all the other candidates in the constituency I have a vote in are not just remainers but rabid remainers it's a case of casting a vote for the pile of excrement that stinks the least. It is a sad choice but reluctantly I must vote tory for the first time ever.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 

thing is jimmy, i reckon in hyndburn, theres a lot of i always vote Labour idiots,and therefore i think Brexit may be the best way to change the vote?
