By-election commentary

I love the way that the odious little man Rees-Mogg has claimed in interviews about the Kingswood and Wellingborough by-elections that the Labour party didn’t achieve 50% of the vote, as if that’s some sort of damning indictment of their performance. Tell me, Mr. Smug: What proportion of the vote did your party achieve in the last General Election. Would it by any chance be less than the Labour party achieved in Kingswood? Oh, so it would: 44.9% for Labour vs. 43.9% for the Tories.

I’m not a Labour voter. I don’t vote for the colour of a rosette. But if that’s the best you and your ilk can come up with then you really are deep in the quagmire come the next GE. Bring it on!
