Did you know that Tony's daddy had a title,1st Viscount Stansgate and a seat in the house of Lords? Tony also went to Oxford, he must have had very wealthy, upper class friends. So you see, they all mix in high circles together. Nothing to choose between them. He wasn't just an ordinary guy, but he did serve in the RAF during the war years.

p.s What do you think about Union Officials being members of the Communist Party?

Yes, I know Tony Benn's backstory very well. However, despite his background, Benn has stood for election on many occassions unlike Elizabeth Windsor and her family. There is the fundamental difference.

If a Union Offical is a member of the Communist Party then that is their business. Why do you ask?

Tony ditched the Title to remain an MP, he didn't however ditch the money and all the properties that went with it. Hilary Benn objected to a Public Footpath, on the coast, going past one their properties, as I said earlier. They still count themselves as being a cut above the rest of us plebs. Champagne Socialists, no better, no worse. At least with a Tory you know you are supporting a shoit.

There must be something happening in our area.
We have had TWO visits from Ms Angela Eagle and two more from her cronies. All seem to be determined to get us to vote Labour yet all of their leaflets have given a wide range of what THEY see as Tory actions for the past year and tory policies for the year ahead but not a dicky bird about what they would do for the local area, hardly surprising when their candidate wants to represent Moreton & Leasowe yet lives on Manor Road, Liscard.
Ukip and Lib Dems were little different, they lived miles away and had probably never heard of Leasowe.

Short memories I think:

Quote
And, boy does Wirral have problems. In mid-February the Labour Leader and his minority administration lost a motion of no confidence over the way it managed a scandal in adult services. The report into the handling of the crisis was so shocking and so appalling that residents were left wondering why Labour had to be forced out when resigning was the only honourable option.

With Lib Dem votes the Conservatives took the Leadership. An all-party cabinet was established but Labour refused to take their seats.
