Re: Election declared void
The reason I put this thread on here as that I thought it would be of interest, the thing that does disappoint is that if the MP had been a Tory, this thread would now be into it's 7th or 8th page

Ah, but if the MP HAD been a Tory, would you have started the thread in the first place?

Never mind, there's another one for you to have a go at now...some Labour MP has been involved in a "scuffle" in the House of Commons. I'll leave you to provide the appropriate link (tip: the BBC one's a bit boring, but the Mail one's nice and sensationalist...just the way you like 'em!).

Re: Election declared void
Should be an interesting bye-election .
Will it be a Coalition candidate against a Labour candidate ?
Or a Conservative candidate , a Liberal Democrat candidate , and a Labour candidate all against each other ?
Will Nick Clegg be there with David Cameron , each slagging off the other's candidate ?

You certainly do, Jay, and, as you neatly avoided answering my original question, I can see that you still keep a fair few tried-and-tested politician's tricks up your sleeve!

DC n NC will keep their distance so as to avoid upsetting the apple cart. Should be a good bit sparring and might throw a curve ball as well.

Re: Election declared void
I wonder why jaysay hasn't found fit to mention the Tories brought Baroness Warsi to Accrington yesterday to canvass for a local council by-election. Is PB scared of something?
