    He certainly knows how to manipulate a dumb audience.

    I think it's a good indication of the state of British politics today. People just don't think they have a choice anymore so go for minority parties at By Elections. I think it's a wake up call for Labour that they probably wont heed.

    Labour are dead and buried.

    They had 13 years of creating the present mess....including the mass immigration policy that has screwed things up so much for many on this forum.

    Then in their wisdom they elected a person who does a great impression of a soppy schoolboy to lead them.

    What has replaced them though ?

    Personally, I think the majority of all politicians are a waste of time and space.
    Somewhere along the line it all changed. None of them have the necessary experience, conviction, intelect or common sense.
    There's just no GMRC anymore

    The stats are definitely saying something.....quite a definitive result.

    Labour thought they could simply win Bradford by putting up a Pakistani Muslim candidate. Obviously the people saw through this.The way Labour are performing in opposition at the moment under Milliband is making them look unelectable for quite some time.
