Well having run several election campaigns, which I am guessing you haven’t, I beg to differ.

However when I start knocking on I might have to change my view, but currently based on people I speak to Burnley is currently looking heavily Brexit.

That could be in my personal bubble of people I know.

Being a lifelong Burnley fan might help him a little. Goes home and away.

Really you don’t retain the benefits. You pay massive amounts of money to stay in the club.

Any deal based on that manifesto would make us massively worse off.

We would pay a similar amount in.
Get no rebate.
Get no EU investment .

Not be allowed to make deals with other countries. Like the USA.

The other account, never questioned, was a ****-take from start to finish, posting stuff just to see how gullible some of those fools were.
It was, to be fair, pretty interesting to see how you could manipulate others' thinking. Nothing "split personality" about that, chap, far from it - two uses of different persona. That's why I did it.
Hope you understood that.

Again, classic floundering from you - you've been caught by the knackers fair and square over your fake account so, suddenly, you start squealing its my account. Your second account is not a parody account - don't you understand what the term means ? It is your rather childish and embarrassing attempt to garner support. That's why you do it.

How ******* pathetic and needy are you ? Don't get upset over being caught out, you just aren't clever enough to disguise the language "Elizabeth" uses. You do reasonably well to a point and then the odd jibe, the odd piece of repetition or the tone gives you away. Learn from it. I'll be looking for some improvement.

As I said earlier, its not a difficult science to spot the writing habits we all have, they'll show eventually.

And finally, FWIW, I think one Bolton lad did have some suspicions about my allegiance but only admitted that when Bolton went down, my work there was done and I finally owned up. ;)

Do you really think I give a monkeys about why, not only, did you get some weird buzz, by going on another clubs message board, but registering as 2 seperate posters!!!!??? But what you did and who you upset while "the 2 of you" spent hours of fun, taking part in "verbal guerilla warfare :lol: :lol: as you put it!!!!!


You're even offering me tips on how to improve "Elizabeth" :lol: :lol: :lol:

You clearly relish this multiple personality disorder, fetish that you indulge yourself in on various football message boards. But, whichever one you choose to use. You cant hide the fact that you've got anger and self awareness issues.


Even if you're in your favourite "Verbal Guerilla Warfare" camouflage!

You have half a point here. Having just read through the Brexit section of the manifesto again, it essentially commits to absolutely nothing does it?? If it was a legal document Labour could've done almost anything and they wouldn't - in the absolute strictest sense - have broken a manifesto commitment. That's because the manifesto made no commitment! They could've ripped up A50, they could have crashed out with no deal, they could've had a 2nd (or even 3rd) referendum, they could've just danced naked flicking V's to France from the white cliffs of Dover. There is absolutely nothing they could've done that would break their manifesto commitments, even had they maliciously set out to do so. In the strictest sense, the only commitment was to give current resident EU nationals right to stay, but that's basically it. The rest is all 'Seek to...' 'Aim for...' 'Respect the...' 'Work with...' 'Recognises that...'

Just shows what utter balls manifestos really are, doesn't it?

This lot lied through their teeth, though (and so, it seems, did I):

Controlling external EU immigration is totally in our control anyway, regardless of our EU membership.

It’s a funny thing doing door stepping.
You get a real appreciation of what’s going on.
When you look people in the eye and say things they do take it on board.
But betray that and it’s damaging in a big way.

Two examples from my past.
One an old lady I knocked on her door and she said she would vote for my mumif we sorted next door, I promised I would return if we won.
A few weeks after we won .i returned with my mum. She said she never expected to see us again. The house next door was derelict and was leaking into her house and her bead room walk was black with mould.

My mum had it compulsory purchased and auctioned off, then repaired.
Next election 30 to 40 streets away knew what we had done for that lady, majority increased.

A farmer was allowed cow poo to over flow every time we had heavy rain. We got him to move it to a place secure from rain. Streets away knew what we had done.

The county council elections my Mum smashed it.

Look after local people they will vote for you.

The first paragraph is totally irrelevant. And the second paragraph doesn't control immigration either - checking identity that's it.

Lowbank, I agree with you that most people don't know what a Marxist is, but I would have to question whether you know what a Marxist is if you think Corbyn is one. To be a Marxist, and by that I mean one who subscribes to Karl Marx's stated doctrines, he would have to be seeking the revolutionary overthrow of the democratic system that he regards as unchangeably wedded to the domination of the capitalist class. Corbyn is a left wing Social Democrat, which is very different from Marxism although they do share some ideas. But if you can show me that I have misunderstood, I would be happy to learn.

Are all Tory candidates Eton educated? I didn’t realise it was a pre-requisite.

I do think that candidates for all parties should be local to the constituency by the way in order to best serve the interests of the electorate bit o felt I had to pull you up on this as it sounds like you’re starting a smear campaign already.
