Huge if true

Also why is the leader of the Northern Independence Party so concerned about Labour's poll ratings?

Why indeed when polling companies are run by the Tories and just ask leading questions to influence public opinion. There’s a Peter Hitchen meme and a Yes Prime Minister clip to prove it.

Interesting thread on The Northern Independence Party

Interesting. Why use a whippet as the party’s logo. I’m from the north and never owned a whippet.

Thinking about it, my parents emigrated to Yorkshire in 2003. In the 20 years I've been making frequent visits I've never even seen a whippet.

A particular type of northerner who moves to London at the first opportunity, then bangs on about the crap beer and everything's too expensive and nobody's friendly, then cashes in, moves back up this way and starts moaning about the lack of kimchee bars in Cleator Moor.

There's a good point in the comments about how much time and effort the far left expend on trying to get a few hundred votes.

It’s a decent thread to be fair, I think they are the worst of a bad bunch and where all this money is going no one actually knows.

Political parties for twitter folk.

As for the whippet very patronising. And really didn’t say serious when I first saw it, also the leader lives in Brighton which says a lot.

One of the many things extremists on both sides share is the ability to part a fool from his money.
