Liebour double standards
Nuruzzaman Hira, a former candidate for the frankly bizarre Respect party and the equally pointless spin-off, Left List, has defected to the Illiberal Dumbocrats.
This wouldn’t be newsworthy in the slightest if it wasn’t for the response by the local Liebour nutters who said it showed a “lack of principle”.
Strange that because a lefty liberal defecting from a lefty liberal party to another slightly less lefty liberal party means that you can keep your lefty liberal principles with your new party. Not so for Quentin Davies, the right wing capitalist Tory toff who defected to the nominally left wing socialist Liebour Party.

What is really the reason for these people shifting from one party to the next, especially with most you cannot put a fag paperbetween their policies.
Locally, a formr Labour Cllr jumps ship to the Tories, why, because he knew Liebour were in for a slapping, the tories caught him because they needed the numbers.
I just cannot work out a genuine reason for these people shifting parties, can anyone enlighten me?

Thay are all like that, the only people who should be barred from public office are those who actually want to to do it in the first place.
Have you ever seen a poor politician? They are parasites of the worst kind, they feed off peoples good will and hope.

August 23rd, 2008 at 7:06 pmI am not surprised that Nuruzzaman Hira defected away from Respect. George Galloway is odious and a friend to no one. There was bound to be a backlash eventually.
August 23rd, 2008 at 9:34 pmGeorge Galloway is a twisted devious glaswegian, who had to leave glasgow because of his twistedness and deviousness
August 24th, 2008 at 1:04 amYou’d have to be pretty twisted and devious to have to leave Glasgow!
