Protest Voting

Norman Tebbit wanted to say “vote UKIP”, and I don’t know what stopped him. In the European Elections, disgusted Tories and Tory Lib Dems should vote UKIP, while disgusted Labourites and Labour Lib Dems should vote NO2EU.

Yes, there are some very extreme elements in the latter (and in the former, for that matter). But people like Bob Crow, Dave Nellist and Tommy Sheridan are not as extreme as people think they are, or indeed as they themselves seem to think they are. And NO2EU lists also include Peter Shore’s old researcher, leaders of the Visteon and the Lindsey oil refinery workers, and the immediate past Leader of the Liberal Party (not the Lib Dems, the Liberal Party).

Alas, I have a prior engagement. But there is a NO2EU rally at Newcastle’s Station Hotel on Thursday, between 5pm and 7pm. Get along to it.

  1. Norman Tebbitt is a bitter and twisted old man.
    Of course as his wife was/is the Victim of Terrorism he has a lot of reason to be bitter and twisted.

    But then he was ALWAYS bitter and twisted.
    He would instantly become as anonymous as the rest of the passengers on the Clapham Omnibus if he actually left the Tory Party.

    As he craves publicity,he will stay in the Party. As a contrary twisted and bitter man, he will get more pleasure that way.
    Sad really.
    But on the other hand he deserves it.
    Once A Chingford Skinhead, always a Chingford Skinhead.
