Re: Our own political loser, last week?
And he won't win that either, I shall be voting for a certain S Lloyd.
Anyhow AB is deserting us for the Big Smoke according to Facebook, do they have interns at government level?

Not quite.. he did win the Accy Web Grand National sweepstakes and I think he had a few quid himself on the winner, maybe he can buy himself a first class ticket so that he can sit with his pals on the train down to London

Yes, but I believe they are called, "Bum Chums".
Well everyone has to learn, and if he learns enough, perhaps it's time we all saved little bit's of his speeches, sorry, I mean posts in case he gets so important MI5/6/whatever the latest conspiracy people are, attack accyweb to remove the truth?

Re: Our own political loser, last week?
Well I say good luck to the young-un in whatever his future holds , lets face it he's taken a lot of crap off folks on here, (tough love ) and has allways had the courage of his convictions to come back and take more .
Maybe 20 years from now Accyweb will be welcoming another local Hyndburn (Greater Accrington) lad made good as MP for his home district .

He's given out more than he's received, and nearly caused a mass exodus on the forum, when he was a moderator.
I have no respect for anyone quite happy to dish the dirt, but cries foul, and accuses people of 'picking on him', and 'twisting his words', when what he's said is quoted, word for word.
Takes all sort...of losers.

I'm sure you know the sayings "youth is wasted on the young" and "If I knew then what I know now ". both nothing more than old age jealousy
Don't know the lad , but he seems passionate about his beliefs/politics , can't knock the lad for that (yo ho Ho Ci Mhin ) .
He gave his time and effort to help keep this site going as a moderator (no idea what credentials are required but thanks to all who donate their time and expertise )
Yep, I'm sure the lad is a loser , why because the he is educated and employable and now faces 40 odd years in paying taxes to support old foggies in lifestyles they haven't paid no where near into enough to support them .
Give the kid a break

He doesn't need a break, certainly not from me.
This thread was about the possibility he lost a council election in Hull. Which apparently he did.
He lost respect on here through his actions, and was forced to stop moderating in political threads, something unheard of before.
Losing, for those who need it, will be character building.
I wish every person about to start work, a long and rewarding career. Whether it's being a performing puppet, or in a factory, making them.

Re: Our own political loser, last week?
He moved some of my threads into Anything Goes.
.. controvertial/unconventional meant ridiculous to him.
It got so bad that I put my threads there to save him the bother.

Not the sort of thing a parent wants to hear is it?
It was good of you not to hurt their feelings.

I was looking up what that other loser Karen Buckley was up to, and followed a link, and was directed to the results in Hull.
It takes all sorts, which in this case was a sort of luck.
