Ah you blocked out Mark Francois much like the rest of us. Maybe there is hope for you. With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Decimus Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I've been reading a mammoth biography of Churchill and it is interesting how the dream of a new party in the centre has come up a number of times in it. Very much suggests to me that it is a pipe dream that will never happen. A Widnesian in Ireland blog What is the best system for Super League?

It's only likely if there is a large break up of either the Conservative, or Labour parties, or both, given the first past the post electoral system.

I suspect if IG had any strategy at all it was to wait for the fallout of Brexit and hope they'd benefit. However, their low profile has meant people abandoning the major parties have just gone to Lib Dems and the Greens. A Widnesian in Ireland blog What is the best system for Super League?

17 stone giant Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 So, here is Chuka Umunna blaming Farage for 'leading Britain into chaos': https://chuka.org.uk/article/farage-hype-is-designed-to-make-us-forget-he-led-britain-into-chaos/ And here is Chuka Umunna voting in 2015 in favour of holding an EU referendum: https://www.theyworkforyou.com/divisions/pw-2015-06-09-6-commons/mp/24950 So, what are we to conclude from that? That Mr Umunna is more than happy to hold referendums, but only if he ends up on the winning side. If the referendum doesn't go as he wanted and becomes "chaos" (his words, not mine), then it's not his fault, guvnor. It's the fault of someone who caused the chaos from "outside of the House of Commons". That nasty Mr Farage must have hypnotised him and directed him to vote for what a lot of Remainers are now telling me is a flawed referendum. A stupid question asked by foolish people, I think were Steve May's words. Not Chuka's fault at all though, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were allowed to use the name for the euro elections as it was too late to change it to something else.
