You may remember actor and presenter Ross Kemp as one of the Mitchell bruvvers in East Enders and latterly what I take to be infotainment programme's on satellite TV about "gangs" "war" and other such testosterone fueled malarkey, anyway luckily for the Scobie fighting for Saff Fannit, it turns out that the TV celebrity happens to be a life long labour bod, who despite having little association with Thanet now wants to get involved.
So what's burning up Labour luvvie Ross, seems UKIP have (shock horror), targeted Thanet South as a likely seat for Nigel Farage,
I doubt that Ross has over-loaded his brain with the thought that Labour has it seems itself cynically groomed young Will Scobie, first I presume hardly out of education and probably no real work experience, he was given an easy seat on the local council, then shortly after made Mayor of Margate(shows some contempt for Margate), and then selected for the county council, targeted just like Farage targeted for winnable seat.
A cynical move by Will Scobie and the labour party targeting a seat which is loaded generally toward the conservatives but aware the right wing vote would be split by UKIP.
Crikey what next Ray Winston knocking on you door on Thursday asking you to Vote Naaaow.
Someone ought to tell Ross Kemp we live in a democracy and sling his flippin hook. Surely Labour ought to make peace with the democratic process, blimin control freaks!
ReplyDeleteOi! Scobie grow up !
Scobie is a front for an ageing and incompetent Thanet Labour group desperate to appeal to the under 70s. Ross Kemp will do precisely what? An hours photoshoot and then disappeat like Hague or Boris? They must think we're idiots.
ReplyDeleteEven Harrison has stuck the knife in!
If turncoat Chris Wells prattling about the airport or Heale and Shonk are the best UKip can do then Farage has problems...
ReplyDeleteDon't forget young mr latchford to head up the peoples army of pensioners
DeleteChris has given no reason for his sudden affinity with ukip and looks most uncomfortable. One can only assume desperate brownnosing for votes just to be elected after the disaster of Broadstairs civic centre.
DeleteWhy have the c.300 SMA carried on moaning about Manston? An airport would take ages to reopen and none of them would get their jobs back
ReplyDeleteHarrisons rant about his Labour friends is unbelievably funny. Did we really elect these idiots?
ReplyDeleteChris Wells was Chair of the Airport Committee so at least knows where the bodies are buried.
ReplyDeleteIs that the same Ross Kemp who is a BAFTA award-winning investigative journalist and spent time on the Afghanistan front line at the height of the war? What front line have you spent time on Tony?
ReplyDeleteIt's what journalists do, 24/7? Unforgivable though it is, I myself as a rail worker have until recently worked 60-70 hours a week excluding travel, outside in all weathers, in a hostile environment, at risk of electrocution, from conductor rails or overhead power, plus risk you might expect in construction and trains. Still like most
DeleteI'm in awe of those who serve this country.
A cheap shot if I might say 8 36.
Not sure bombing civilians or losing wars is praiseworthy
Delete19 54 British service men and women are professionals they follow orders, politicians give the orders, Blair for instance is considered to be a was criminal, if the Chilcott enquiry ever gets published we might all know.
DeleteBritish military is praiseworthy, leave your smart remarks for the politicians
The Uk military are above criticism Tony? Who says so? The disastrous performance in Afghanistan was reported by...the generals themselves. Hardly praiseworthy as you claim.
DeleteOr theres the disastrous failure and overspend on kit by the Mod eg helicopters that cant fly in dust etc.
Cheap nationalism just causes corpses
The only British war criminal isnt Blair but the Royal Marine executing a wounded Afghan and being recorded. Drone strikes on civilians are ignored....
DeleteTony I thought that rail workers were covered by very strict health and safety rules that minimized the chances of an accident. I am surprised that you are at risk of electrocution, if that is the case why do the unions allow it?
DeleteTony lives in Margate...
ReplyDeleteTony is just obsessed with lobbing semi-literate jibes at anything that has "Labour" in the title. His shoulders must be buckling under all the chips he has on them. He is a Liberal-turned UKIP, so how can anyone take him even remotely seriously?
ReplyDeleteIf you don't like it read something else😴🙋
DeleteWhat's wrong with criticism of Thanet Labour even Harrison details how useless they are. How is Iris any different to Bayford
DeleteThe bad old days of Iris and Bayford agreeing on evrything are over. The corruption and failure are out of the bag. So why is Scobie silent? Daddy not told him what to think?
DeleteThanet Labour are awful but have Thanet Tories imploded? There seems only Bayfird left after sevral ukip defections and an MP candidate who pretends to be local?
DeleteWhich one is fake local Chatham Mackinlay or Brussels Cunningham?
DeleteBuilding underway at Lydd for SAR helicopters - didn't Tories say this wouldn't happen? More nails in Manston coffin
ReplyDeleteSomething to warm the hearts of Thanet Labour who've done nothing to support the local economy.
DeleteManston is finished between labour and tory lies. Now Farage is trying to wash his hands of it saying its a tdc problem and nothing to do with him
DeleteFarage can wriggle but Manston is in the ukip manifesto and can only deny the monitors and aquifer scandal for so long
DeleteTony, in case you missed it and would like to do a blog posting, Delia Smith who has sold 21m book will be visiting Thanet tomorrow to support one of the candidates.
ReplyDeleteI've already thought about Delia and it's no wonder she's a Labour supporter, she fits the patronising middle class tone of Labour perfectly with that always knows best attitude IMHO and as firm evidence her website has two recipes for boiling eggs I kid you not
Deletehttp://www.deliaonline.com/how-to-cook/eggs/how-to-boil-an-egg.html
Well that's a cracking post Tony, carry on giving Will and Labour plenty of coverage rather than posting about UKIP's good point. I always knew that secretly you favoured having a grammar school in every town.
Delete18:49 coverage of Scobie and Labour by pointing out how rubbish they are is not good...especially with Harrisons rant about them as bad eggs
Deletehow do we get to grammar schools? I detest these institutions as they deprive 80% of kids of aspiration since they are effectively corralled into deadbeat low performing secondary modern schools
Delete|its one of UKIPs top pledges to set up a grammar in every town, not that UKIP have said how they will pay for this. But as a UKIP man you must have known that Tony.
DeleteUkip are struggling to explain how they'll sort out the dog shit problem which s their 5th main policy(!). How would we mange without Farage
DeleteTony doesn't seem to know what he believes. He obsessively condemns Labour, yet occasionally mutters fairly left-wing views. He was a paid-up member of the Liberal Democrat Party yet seems to have few liberal principles. And he promotes UKIP now, yet criticises some of their policies. A bit confused and probably best ignored.
