Dover & Deal Labour Party - General Election Volunteering
With a General Election finally her, we are ready to fight a disastrous No Deal Brexit and to start rebuilding a Britain for the many, rather than just for Johnson and his wealthy cronies.

She might do if the Conservatives are as quiet on places like FB as they have been so far. Labour (supporters) have even started a new discussion group which is open for all political viewpoints, although it seems a bit one sided at the moment.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Er, 'her' being 'a female candidate' since, as far as I'm aware, only those of that sex are in the running. Button was referring to a spilling mestake (hence the thread title).

In these days of gender neutrality (confusion) should that read :
"Well, whoever wins down here it most likely will be their"

Certainly not. There is a place for 'their', but not there. So they're.
