Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
Something for the Honourable Member for Hyndburn to ponder. Rather than the 95% of Hyndburn's electorate who couldn't give a toss about Europe (according to Jonesy), it would seem the voters of Thurrock have a different opinion.
BBC News - Thurrock poll 'backs EU referendum'
Nearly 90% of those who voted in a public poll over Britain's membership of the EU have backed calls to stage a referendum, campaigners say.

Perhaps Graham's figure of '95% of local people not giving a toss about Europe', was arrived at after doing his own poll...in his constituency office.
Perhaps Merkel, the office cat, is secretly a Eurosceptic, and accounts for the dissenting 5%.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
I notice that GJ and his Council acolytes seem to be staying well clear of coming on here. Prior to this time last year certain people were on here every single day, telling us what the Tory Council was doing wrong, now those self same people have hidden themselves away.
The Tories? what is the point of voting for them when they continually walk out of council meetings - I bet they still claim all their allowances though.
Oh for a decent alternative.

Re: Did Graham Jones do the right thing?
Newbie on here, However thought i would let you know Graham Jones has just been arrested for intimidating proxy voters for conservative, Apparently they have been canvass people in the Barnfield area today and told proxy voters that what they were doing was illegal and that they would be arrested if they allowed proxy votes to go through, apparently the police have been called and Graham was arrested for intimidating voters and threatning them ..... not good for Labour shouldnt it be a fair vote, and one where your not bullying individuals

The full truth?
Hmmm, I see that the Accyweb trait of throwing up new members at election time is still going strong.
As are 'interesting' Conservative stories.
