@Forwarder that's true. I don't think any of them supported it? I've not been a Labour party member for many years because of HQ interference in local politics...a whole other thread.
I'm no great fan of the MP for Bootle. I've a long memory of his actions when he was on the local Fire Authority. However, there are quite a few things he voted on that I've supported.
Thing is, when you are living in a ( mostly) deprived area, and wading through the day to day shit that affects you, and those around you, a vote for him is possibly the only way some of us can put two fingers up at this Government on other issues.
It's no great secret here that politics in Merseyside has a history of politicians looking after their own interests - regardless of Party.
As for "matrons" of Bootle as you call us🙂 well, I can't say I know of many women who would describe themselves as such... but we do all know that men can't have babies.
Unlike some of those posh lads in frocks who wander up here now and then from the Universities it would seem. All that education and no idea where babies come from.
