[Sussex] Blur drummer Dave Rowntree to stand as Labour candidate for Mid Sussex

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

Presumably some of you will be voting for him!?

Don't know too much about him or his views, but I like his music and for that reason I'm IN (and the fact he's not an austerity promoting, brown paper bag passing, privatization pushing, big business backing, social safety net slashing, public sector squeezing, brexit bequeathing THUNDERCÜNT!)

Will he become Labour’s magic whip?

 

[GT49er]

So, it's voting for musicians whose work appeals to your values now, eh? Who would you like standing in your constituency? - John Lydon? The Levellers? Richard Thompson? Billy Bragg?
What about for POTUS? Bruce Springsteen? Bob Dylan? Dolly Parton?

..........................of course, if whoever recorded The Birdie Song were to stand .......................

 

[A1X]

Nothing but respect for MY next MP

Ozzie Osborne might be interesting?

“Dave Rowntree will stand in Mid Sussex, the party announced on Wednesday evening. The constituency includes Burgess Hill, Haywards Heath and the Mid Sussex villages.”

So does that mean he will he be living in a house, a very big house in the country ?

 

[GT49er]

Ozzie Osborne might be interesting?

.....or Cliff Richard.......

Dolly Parton would make a great President. She has a heart of gold.

Given the state of the polls, it really really really could happen

..... and Heart of Gold was Neil Young!

 

[Pevenseagull]

The lib dem candidate for Hove at the last GE
used to play bass for The Wedding Present.



Anyway, people of Mid Sussex, vote Dave


There's No Other Way.

N, N, N, Y,

[Pevenseagull]

If he wins Tory HQ will think, 'This is a low'.

He'd fail the obligatory drug test.

Anyway, I doubt he's labour. So he'd lose.

Well, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be one of the Limp Dems!

 

[BrianB]

He'll have to beat his drum loudly, the general consensus is Lib Dem here at the moment...

The constuency has been carved up. Don't have a clue to what end that will effect things.

The sitting Tory is moving to the other one that is formed from the gerrymandering stuff. (Cynical).

Who knows, probably split the vote with the Lin Dems and let the Tories in.


Oh well.

Neil was searching for a heart of gold and Dolly seems to have one

If he supports the Labour front bench, which I think he does, then he will be all those things
