Lib Dem’s To Stand Aside In Putney....?

It is suggested that the Lib Dem’s may decide to stand aside in “key seats” to ensure the maximum number of MP’s who are opposed to Brexit are returned - assuming an October election.  As BJ may ‘deselect’ MP’s who oppose his strategy, JG may not be the candidate, so not a key seat?  Or is it?

That’s good a completely an utterly pointless party anyway.

...but one that now stands to win the constituency, given Justine’s news.  No chance of them standing aside now

The Lib Dems will argue that as they topped the poll in Wandsworth in the Euro elections they should have the seat. Labour will say they came a close second last time without really trying.

Its now open for Lib Dems to contest Putney after this morning's news.

Lib Dems takeover Putney, does that mean we all walk down the streets smoking dope, wearing weird orange patterned shirts and cuddling trees.

Why?  Do you think they are all hippies?

Don't be facetious Nick. That's the Greens.

Precisely that, Nick - and a jolly good thing  too if the alternative is to be transported back to the 19th century under the ERG!

Ha ha Craig - JRM would just love that - he's never left the 19th century.

Curious - I didn't realise that he was as progressive as that - I thought he came from the eighteenth century

James Dixon ● 2626d

You could be forgiven for thinking that.

Lucille Grant ● 2626d

Sorry Lucille it was just a bit of fun.

Nick Gulliford ● 2625d

Ok Nick. I accept I've had a sense-of-humour bypass recently!
