More Reasons for UKIP to Run in Hodge Hill

Local labour members are furious as their party imposes two Head Office advisors on the constituency shortlist of only two. The report in ic Birmingham is linked here and titled 'Sham' claim over candidates.

Furthermore, the Hartlepool sabotage strategy presented by Farage's publicity fixer and ex-NEC member John Harvey was totally blown out of the water (as it should immediately have been had proper thought been given to the Hartlepool suggestion), as this report from The Scotsmanlinked here from 24th June makes quite clear. A quote:-

TONY Blair is about to shatter Peter Mandelson’s European dreams by ruling out sending the twice-sacked former minister to Brussels as Britain’s European commissioner.

The Prime Minister is coming under intense pressure from Labour chiefs to avoid a by- election in Hartlepool, which would be the party’s third of the summer.

Party insiders are already worried about losing Leicester South next month, and are braced for a tough fight in Hodge Hill in Birmingham.


At the present moment UKIP looks set to avoid Leicester South and Hodge Hill, keeping their powder dry for Hartlepool....which by-election will never take place as the loss of one of these earlier by-elections (possibly even to the BNP) will make Blair unwilling to create another vacancy, let alone for someone as disgraced as Mandelson even when considering the well known depths of Blair's cronyism.

UKIP are proving their treachery against the anti-EU cause by not running candidates - while Kilroy has quickly demonstrated that it was the perks rather than the principle that led him on his recent campaign.

Totally shameful!
