That poll was pretty accurate then Woo, including the wipe out for the Lib Dems.

 

I,ll have a fiver on David Cameron he'descends from King William IV and his mistress Dorothea Jordan she was an Anglo-Irish actress,got to be worth a bet

 

Sadly I fear that it is simply demonstrating what politics has become - politicians and their parties are so disconnected from the realities of the world that voters feel that they are going to go unheard and get shafted no matter who is in power.

There are still those who feel it important to exercise their democratic right to vote, but being faced with a dilemma akin to being asked their preference of having their eyes gouged out with a fork or a spoon, they simply vote for the person they like the most

 

Good morning this is just my personal opinion is that the people of Rochester /Strood (50.6%) of them are a bit sharper and more aware than that ,it was purely the people saying they are disillusioned with all party politics ,it was just a shot across the bows before the General election,they don't particularly like Mark Reckless in fact quite the opposite,I will put my head on the block and say it will be a different story next May when common sense will once again prevail,wait and see

 

It's interesting to see that the party that, supposedly, is going to deal with the 'immigration problem' was voted in by a local electorate that is 94.7% white Anglo-Saxon! (Official demographic figures.) So it appears that they don't actually have a problem.

 

Just a little trivia

A Tory candidate selected by the party to stand in the Rochester and Strood by-election is an hardcore anti-Israel activist.

Kelly Tolhurst, who won an open primary to fight in the by-election next month, has urged supporters on her Twitter account to boycott Israeli businesses, placing her at odds with her party, which has refused to support boycotts.
