To be fair, if he'd come out and said I'm voting Reform because of this policy and this one, that would be fair enough. 

I just can't believe that there are people who genuinely believe that Richard Tice and Nigel Farage are more honest than the current Labour and Tory MPs.

It's shitty what happened to your lad. I just think there's heightened tensions at the moment because of what's happening in Gaza - and some morons don't understand where to target their ire. I remember being called (and I quote) "a white land grabbing cunt" once, many moons ago. It was jarring but I just put it down to the fact that the person that called it me was an angry bellend. 

Rishi calling GG being elected 'beyond alarming' is ridiculous in a democracy. As is trying to make out our country is at risk of being torn apart by extremists. Massive knee jerk reaction that will make problems worse not better.

It's an election ploy from where I'm sitting. And a desperate one to throw out at a time when what we need is cool heads. 

Everyone is in agreement that it's shitty what happened to TMJs lad. And if it's your own kid you're going to be more pissed off. But that's no reason to start steretyping all of the Muslim community by blaming a mayor, just because he's also Muslim. 

Extremists are a problem. But they're not running anything.

One of the Rochdale lads who sit with us in WSL lives in an area of Rochdale unaffected by this week’s by-election because his area is shoved in under Heywood & Middleton. He was at the announcement and did say there was a shitstorm at the polling booths and at the count when groups of lads from Muslim backgrounds were attempting to intimidate just about everyone there. 
 

Edit - He also said many folk in Rochdale feel [edit] Galloway just selected an area with a higher-than-average Muslim population and went in with a Support Palestine agenda knowing he’d get the traditionally Labour vote, especially as Labour had divorced itself from their candidate.

The average Rochdale inhabitant doesn’t feel George [edit] Galloway is there to represent them but just to get into parliament to cause shit.

I can only say what’s been said to me. I wasn’t there to grill him on his opinions.

Don’t you think losing the Labour candidate gifted Osborne many of their votes?

George Osborne winning Rochdale would be insane. 

Galloway.. Not so much. But I can imagine what you've said definitely happened.

You have gone seriously fucking loopy. You are trying to tell me that those muslims and assorted left wing shithouses who would have voted for the Labour antisemite wouldn't have switched to Galloway knowing that they couldn't vote for Labour?

I'll be graceful and convince myself that you are delirious at the victory over Cambridge.

I explained above but just for you

Galloways game plan is the same as it ever was

Labour fucking up wouldnt have changed that

Yes, he would have gained votes, i didnt deny that

For avoidance of any doubt, for about the 5th time, Galloway is a bad un

Id go so far as putting him in with Braverman, Jenrick, Farage etc

my issue with them is that they still want a divided Ireland

i thought a vote out of Europe with UKIP would have brought a move towards uniting Ireland

Its a massive political headache and costs a fortune

Unionist mps were pro-brexit. They don't want a united Ireland. 

Too complex a situation.

Well, you've nailed the politicians skill of not answering a question.

Knobends like Galloway have always existed

They just have a platform that gives them a bigger audience nowadays.

There are times when even I yearn for the days when the only cranks around stood on Manny Road wearing a sandwich board claiming the end was nigh.

We’re addicted to social media. All of us. And it’ll wipe us out eventually.

The bloke is a fucking crank. No better than that Bridgen tool but he can speak better.

We seem to be falling into extremes due to the mismanagement of the country. Richard Tice (Ltd company and climate change denier) on one side and similar loons like Galloway on the other.

The sooner politics gets boring again the better.

This confirms it. Loopy.

Still, your badar is right about the commie bastard. Loves to give speeches at CPGB events. Dangerous cunt who will disrupt Parliament more than the scurrilous SNP or anything the Beast of Bolsover ever did.
