Makes perfect sense
You silly twat
It's got nothing to do with people supporting the Tories - I thought that was obvious, it's simply about Labour losing votes if they don't support us in our hour of need. All this crap about only Labour supporting us will come to absolutely nothing if Falmer is rejected

Really? How's that?
I trust Ivor Caplin will be standing for Hove again, in which case he will not be getting my vote regardless of Falmer Yes/No.

I would think a 'no' could have a negative effect on Ivor Caplin in Hove. I'll probably still vote labour as David lepper seems to dislike Blair as much as I do and seems to agree with me on many issues, so at least I do feel represented in parliament.
If however you feel you don't want to vote for anyone, I suggest you spoil your ballot paper or vote for someone like Dobbs to register your protest. Given what certain parts of the world have to go through to get a vote at all, it seems rather churlish not even bother registering your opinion.

In London village.
To be honest I detest New Labour, regardless of any decision on Falmer, have never had anything other than total contempt for the Tories and would not trust the Lib-Dems an inch.
I would gladly vote for an independent candidate who showed anything approaching genuine concern for the local community and working people in general.

Whatever your politics, it would seem that only 12% would vote Labour if Falmer is not allowed - not very scientific, but it's on such matters as these, local issues decided upon by a senior govenment figure, that can make the difference on poling day.
Somone said earlier in the thread that we should not kid ourselves about how much of big issue this is to the government, quite true, I suppose, but that won't ease certain MP's nerves come poling day.
Come on Prescott, you know it makes sense

I cannot believe that Prescott will say no in any circumstances. Can he?
It's in the bag. The're just dragging it out to make it look like theere is really some sort of decision to make.

Also, I think football fans across the land will look very closely at this. It's not just about Brighton and Hove. Do Labour want to go to the next election with a "no fans of football" label as well as the all the other shit they have managed to acrue over the last two terms?
