Russell Brand will release the full video of Milibrand today. Fantastic stuff.

Forget Dimbleby, forget Evan Davis and even forget Kay Burley, Russell Brand is the real deal. He is the one we want to watch (apart from Farage).

The trailer shows what we are likely to get - more mockney than in Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels of Monkeys. Miliband looks like he no longer gives a monkeys, he's going flat out for it. His Oxbridge teenage advisers must have told him to watch the "characters" in Albert Square and make sure he drops as many aitches as he can, the public's "gotta" be done up like a kipper. There are more hand movements and "hell yeah" grimaces than Joe Pesci on steroids in Goodfellas, but these fellas ain't good, they're "bloody lively".

Ed is about to explain it to Russell and fortunately Russell stops him short and says let me say it in my own words, that'll be better. Better than predistribution, than predatry capitalism, than endogeneous growth theory? It doesn't get much better than that.

Can't wait for the full 20 minute video to be released. Forget the Labour Party political broadcasts with the usual list of luvvies, this is Russell Brand - a luvvie who still has some street cred - and the Oxford PPE egghead known as Red Ed. Will this finally put the election to bed?

UKIP are common sense. If you spot a Common Sense bus on tour in your vicinity, go and have a chat with a member of the People's Army on board, they'll give you a common sense leaflet and explain the common sense revolution. There are no platitudes, no spin, they like to keep it real, down with the people, not the PPEs.

Claig you are so busted. I always assumed you were a group of bored daily mail journalists but now I see the truth. Grin

Lumpy, you say Farage may not make it in South Thanet, but according to this report that I am reading over my crunchie breakfast and double espresso, it's going absolutely wild down there. The report syas there is Farage-mania unlike anything seen since the Beatlesmania of the early sixties.

"THE Isle of Thanet has not seen anything quite like it since The Beatles played six consecutive nights at the Margate Winter Gardens a little over half a century ago.

"I love you, Nigel!" screams a teenage girl across Ramsgate High Street at the passing parliamentary election candidate. Another female admirer dashes up to thrust a bouquet of roses into his hands.

Farage-mania is sweeping Kent's most eastern tip. On a blazing Bank Holiday Monday, Nigel Farage is greeted with handshakes and car-horn toots wherever he goes.
...
At the Belle Vue pub, he is greeted like a regular.

"You can pretty much guarantee that 80 per cent of people in this place are voting Ukip. It is the common sense party," says the landlord."

Honestly claig, it is bloody ugly down here. Really, really ugly. UKIP attract a lot of racists, can't think why Hmm and someone has taken the lid off them tonight.

I'm keeping my head down and my fingers crossed that by some miracle Will wins. He's a good local lad that grew up here and is rising his family in the area, he understands Thanet and what the people need.

The real people claig, not the haters.

'and someone has taken the lid off them tonight.'

My guess is it may be Establishment dirty tricks.

Id rather be a 'luvie' than a fascist.

LumpySpacedPrincess · 07/05/2015 06:52

Not establishment at all, just a bunch of local haters. It's okay to be racist in the street now, I honestly despair, all this on the back of one charismatic man.

You think people would learn.

You think people would remember.

Dangerous indeed Lumpy. The slightly more acceptable face of the BNP...

"Ukip will win most votes in Essex, according to latest Chronicle poll"

NIGEL Farage's Ukip are set to storm Essex according to the latest Essex Chronicle poll.

We asked 295 online readers what party they will be voting for in both the General Election and in their local elections.

And Ukip came up trumps in both, securing 26.3 per cent of the national vote and 39.7 per cent in the local elections."

www.essexchronicle.co.uk/Ukip-look-set-storm-barricades-area/story-26449712-detail/story.html

That is the people's party.

We also voted for council elections and I couldn't believe that in my one, there was no UKIP candidate for that. There were five choices, each one Establishment.

I reread the local council ballot, then reread it, held it up to the light and reread it, turned it upside down and reread it, rotated it several times then reread it and every time all I saw was Establishment. Miffed? You betcha.

I even looked on the back of the ballot, i thought there must be some mistake. In the end, I had to vote Establishment, There was no alternative. I looked to the Heavens, asked for forgiveness and placed a cross against Establishment. Miffed? You betcha.

JazzAnnNonMouse · 07/05/2015 16:00

Who out of the 'establishment ' did to vote for?

LumpySpacedPrincess · 07/05/2015 16:07

claig voted tactically, I'm guessing labour.

claig · 07/05/2015 16:29

No I voted Conservative for the council because I used to be a Conservative voter and I hope they will keep the council tax low and hopefuly fix potholes etc even though I am cheesed off that it was the arrogant Conservatives who turned our streetlights off after midnight without asking us. But they may have been taught a lesson now, I think they know that Essex is in revolt and we have had enough of them.
