    Sounds like you know him better than anybody, Fromers. I’m in no position to offer such insight as fact.

    I think you'll find that Kiwi will be able provide a definitive insight from his vast library of far-right propaganda.

    Theresa May was meeting Jeremy Corbyn for face-to-face Brexit talks
    14 May 2019 • 8:32pm
    Theresa May has tried to delay her resignation for almost three months by telling ministers she can get a Brexit deal done if she is allowed to stay as Prime Minister until the end of July.
    Mrs May met Jeremy Corbyn for cross-party talks on Tuesday night where she told him she will table a vote on a Brexit “divorce” bill next month with or without a deal with Labour.
    Mrs May earlier told her Cabinet it was “imperative” the Brexit legislation is passed before Parliament breaks for the summer.
    The Prime Minister has promised to quit once the Brexit divorce deal is agreed, meaning she would stay in Number 10 for at least another 11 weeks.
    It came as a new poll showed the Tories will not solve their...

    Murderers, rapists and *****philes 'to be given £70 a week' under new Labour plan
    MURDERERS, *****philes and rapists will leave prison with masses of money in the bank under a "ludicrous" Labour plan to give everyone state handouts. Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell has said the party will trial paying a universal basic income – but it would mean criminals walk out of jail with thousands of pounds in their pocket.

    The killer of Lee Rigby, remembered above, could rack up £142,000 (Image: Getty)
    Labour has commissioned a report into the cost of giving all working-age adults £70 a week, regardless of their wealth or behaviour. As an example, Michael Adebowale – who was jailed for 45 years for murdering soldier Lee Rigby in 2013 – could rack up £142,000 in the time he has left behind bars. Soham murderer Ian Huntley, who has more than half of his 40-year sentence left, would be on course for a handout of £84,000.
    A *****phile serving 14 years could receive £50,000 and a rapist sentenced to five years in jail would be handed £18,000.
    According to Labour's proposal, the income would be payable to every legal resident and would be a "permanent right".
    This means that as well as covering criminals, taxpayers will also be forced to shell out for Britain's top earners, including bankers and Premiership footballers.
    Experts estimate the scheme could cost almost £200billion a year.
    Mr McDonnell welcomed the report on universal basic income, which aims to "provide everybody with equal basic security".

    He said trials for some form of the payment will be set up in Liverpool, Sheffield and the Midlands if Labour wins the General Election.
    Alec Shelbrooke, the Conservative Vice-Chairman, said the proposal "beggars belief".
    He added: "This utterly ludicrous plan shows why Labour can never be trusted to govern the country or our economy."

    Labour are going to take the money from us thieving rich middle classes and give it to the oppressed felons because that way they’ll see the error of their ways and not do anything beastly ever again.

    I don't think universal basic income will solve anything.

    I actually quite like the theory tbh but there is no way to actually pay for that **** for the theory to work. Giving people 4k a month will not allow them to sustainably live and get a job, let alone it being a policy of encouraging further migration and citizenship (dependent on who gets it) as well as it being potentially rife with fraud way worse than we see now

    I think the *****, murderers etc is a totally unfair headline, standard red top propaganda.

    Although i do think ubi should be halted for people currently in prison.

    He's editor of Remainer rag, The New European for which the usual suspects Blair, Adonis, Campbell, etc write. Kelly holds the same views as Brussels fanatics like Guy Verhoftwat and Martin Selmayr

    do you read any of the stuff you post

    human error or just laziness they should have done the recount there and then
    it was a mistake and they should not have to go to court over it
    the results should not stand until its sorted out

    heres some real fraud for you

    Six men jailed for election fraud
    Six men have been jailed for charges relating to election fraud during a council vote in Berkshire.
    The charges related to an election in the Slough Central ward in May 2007 where Labour councillor Lydia Simmons lost her seat to Tory Raja Khan.
    Raja Khan, along with two others, had previously admitted the offences. Three other men were convicted by a jury.
    The men, all from Slough, were jailed for between four-and-a-half years and four months at Reading Crown Court.

    No doubt they will do very well
    It will be very interesting as you say if they reflect a high percentage
