Opinion: Above is the Labour Party election candidate's campaign leaflet here in Hull West and Hessle, Alan Johnson's former constituency. To be precise it is one side of the leaflet as it is stuck to our front room window and just as I was about to pop outside to grab an image of the other side rain began to fall.
It does not matter though as just using the one side illustrates important points. The candidate is a local woman called Emma Hardy who was a teacher locally for ten years. The leaflet gives a little information about Emma and highlights what she will aim for if elected Member of Parliament to represent Hull West and Hessle at Westminster. It is quite clear that if Emma Hardy wins the election on June 8, 2017, she will serve Hull West and Hessle and serve us well. So fancy a look at a Tory campaign leaflet dropping through Hull West and Hessle letterboxes Saturday? Take a look below at two images which show both sides of the Tory election campaign leaflet which arrived in Hull West and Hessle Saturday.. Who is the local candidate? Who knows? To be honest I had no idea whether a Tory was standing here or not. A quick search online for the purpose's of this post revealed; Hull West & Hessle
That search also appears to reveal that Mackay stood in Hull East in 2015 and 2010 but did not win either time. She was a BRexit campaigner in 2016. And for the Tory Party the 2017 General Election will be fought on BRexit and personalities. Presumably Theresa May had a heads up from Donald Trump when she visited Washington recently and they held hands. She also met with press baron Rupert Murdoch when she visited the USA on a separate occasion who will have also offered campaign advice. Then we have David Cameron back out of his self-inflicted absence from politics now that the CPS has announced its findings re allegations of Tory Electoral fraud in 2015. Mrs May has already taken a leaf or two out of Cameron's how to play politics book - get personal. Sir Lynton Crosby awarded a knighthood by David Cameron for services to the Tory party, that is helping them win GE2015, completes the picture. The Tories are opting to tap into strengths and weaknesses real and or perceived of the two party leaders. And in some cases it is working. Me? If you look at the three images shared here and believe the Tories will represent you well you are deluded. The Labour Party is offering real hope and positive changes that will improve the lives of us all because if the Tories are allowed to continue on their merry way with their wrecking ball we will ALL lose. It is not rocket science. Increasing rich poor, old young, well infirm, north south divides will destroy society bit by bit. By the time you realise what is happening it will be too late. And if Theresa May wins June 8 she and or her party will have five full years. Just think about that and the damage they can and will do If you have fell for the lie that Jeremy Corbyn is weak open your eyes. He has shown strength of character throughout his parliamentary career. The man is not for sale. Perhaps that is what they fear? |
