Voting begins in Stoke and Copeland by-elections
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-39057362

I think the Tories will take Copeland and Labour will hang on to Stoke. As for UKIP they may loose votes in Stoke and even come third after the Facebook mess. As for Copeland possible third there as well.

First of all what was that rubbish spouted by old JC about a defiant victory in Stoke-on -Trent! :doh:

2015 General Election
Tristram Hunt 12,220

2017 By-Election
Gareth Snell 7,853

Labour down 2%

Pension off that stupid fart JC now!
BTW: You stupid old fart that seat will be no more in 2020, a empty victory.

MP John Woodcock said the party was facing an "historic and catastrophic" defeat at the next general election.

Clearly some one can see what is coming in 2020.

As for Copeland well the Tories are happy about taking that former Labour seat.

The Tory victory was the first by-election gain by a governing party since 1982, which speaks volumes for the mess JC and his circus are in but total denial will only eventually lead to the possible death of the Labour Party.

JC and his twits are hell bent on the destruction of the labour party.

What baffles me is why May doesn't hold a general election before 2020, it's obvious she'd win a landslide.

Why rush when May knows she can rub JC's nose in the dirt and slap him down at PMQ's.

No need till after BREXIT really....I'm sure she's grateful to Jeremy for sticking around therefore ensuring there is no credible opposition to the plans her government are intent on seeing through.

True, true. I guess she's pretty well cemented in already, and her manifesto seems to be the same as Daves so there is no real need.

David Miliband: Labour at its weakest for 50 years under Corbyn
The former foreign secretary adds more pressure on Jeremy Corbyn by saying the party has hit a half-century low.
http://news.sky.com/story/david-mili...orbyn-10780822

Would David Miliband come back before 2020 I don't think he would so what about after 2020 general election? I have a feeling he may but not as leader, more likely in the role of trying to repair the massive damage after the election and utter mess the party is in. But then again he may just wash his hands of it all by making one last stinging comment after the 2020 election.

Woman deported from UK despite being married to Briton for 27 years

Irene Clennell, who has children and a grandchild in the UK, lost indefinite leave to remain after spending time in Singapore caring for parents

A woman living in the UK who has been married to a British man for 27 years has been forcibly removed from the country.

Irene Clennell, who made headlines when she was placed in immigration detention, was deported to Singapore on Sunday.

Clennell first arrived in London in 1988 and married John, a British man, two years later. They settled in County Durham and had two children together. She now has one grandchild.

Her sister-in-law Angela confirmed Clennell had been deported. She said she had been subject to “insensitive and unfair government rules” and that Irene’s husband, her brother, was seriously ill.

She told the Guardian: “It’s outrageous what has happened today. I’m appalled by it especially doing it on a Sunday so you can’t contact anyone to try and stop it happening.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...n-for-27-years

what is happening in the UK? Is it also on the verge of turning into a NAZI dictatorship? :ping:
