Thanks for raising. As best I can tell mundoalbiceleste is a legit Argentinian football website.Malwarebytes keeps warning me about a link to malicious activity when I change pages or click on threads (not all the time). Probably a dodgy advert somewhere. The link is to site mundoalbiceleste dot com. Don't click on it obviously. @Bozza
Your unhappiness about Tom Rutland's arrival as candidate just seemed a bit flimsy. Like you were looking for an excuse...expecially the part along the lines of " he probably won't need my vote anyway " . It just seemed sour grapes and unnecessary.Do you mind me picking you up on your post about me the other way"you were probably looking for any excuse not to vote Labour anyway."?
What did that mean exactly?
I genuinely can't recall when I last voted Tory, but looking back through both local and general elections, I know I've voted Labour at least three times since I did, with the remainder being Lib Dem.
So why, exactly, would I be looking for an excuse to not vote Labour this time round?
I thought Mal Warebytes was a new signingThe link is actually on the Mats Wieffer thread and Malwarebytes says it has a trojan. Ignore this then, not an advert.
So I've voted Labour multiple times in the past but, for some reason, wanted to find any old excuse to not do so this time? I'll be honest - that doesn't make much sense to me. And your post here, comparing me to Phil Collins, suggests something else.Your unhappiness about Tom Rutland's arrival as candidate just seemed a bit flimsy.

I was talking with a Labour Party member from Worthing West and although he disagreed on principle with outside candidates due process was followed. He heard there were 2 or three locals who wanted to stand and a couple from outside the area. They would all have been interviewed and a vote was taken to decide. Tom Rutland won that vote.So I've voted Labour multiple times in the past but, for some reason, wanted to find any old excuse to not do so this time?

As for "not needing my vote" - it was clear he was going to win easily. If there was any indication that it was going to close, I may have had to hold my nose to his parachuting ways.
A very good friend ran for Labour in the local elections earlier this year, but not the ward he lives in. I wouldn't have voted for him, if it was my ward because, again, I don't agree with the practise.
