They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness.
Maybe...
Listen to counsel and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter days.

'I'm a spook and I worship pagan gods' isn't much of a recommendation.
But he'd be in good company if elected.

I think Starmer will let Abbott stand purely because of her ethnicity and apparent popularity in her constituency, but I doubt he will publicly support her in speeches or with a visit, he will do his best to ignore her.

The rumour is that Keir Starmer has offered a peerage to Diane Abbott if she steps down as a Labour candidate.
(Keir Starmer is of course the same guy who pledged to abolish the House of Lords to ‘restore trust in politics’)
A change is going to come my arse!

I don't think Starker will let Abbott stand
If it's on popularity
Corbyn is populAr in his area but wasn't able to stand

So, Farage stands. Should have targeted Dover. Anyway, hope he wins as it will box him in with rules and procedures and we'll hear less of him talking nonsense.

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Because of his huge ego he will do anything for attention. Poor Clacton, depending what other oddity parties stand I think he might be at the bottom of the votes

Yet someone who has probably caused more change, for good OR bad, than anyone else in UK poltics over the past quarter century.
If only the government had put him in the House of Lords, which he deserves more than most, where he would be happy wrapped in ermine and drinking subsidised beer to the end of his days, we wouldn't have Reform and the rest of the lunatic fringe.
Meanwhile CCSO is filling any possible winnable seat with cloned SPADs spouting the sort of rubbish that got us into this mess in the first place.
Remember Boris' stonking majority and there being a smile on everyone's face and the idiots managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.............................?
Frankly I'd much rather be governed by a load of Oxbridge PPEs than a load of people who would never have got into Oxbridge in the first place, or even worse, those who made it to Oxbridge and now wish to pull up that route of advancement to others.
