Ricky Tomlinson to stand as an MP

What's worse? A Blair clone, or someone who thought the National Front a good party to join? Not much of a choice.

Wikipedia for a start. Four years a fascist..

Or how about BBC news?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/true_spies/2361313.stm

Or Google:
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ricky+tomlinson+national+front

Reading one of the dodgy links on that last one without clicking, it claims he was a regional official.

From Wikipedia (so no promises about accuracy/ reliability):

'In his 2003 autobiography, he admitted that between 1968 and 1972, prior to his involvement with trade union politics, he was a member of the National Front,[2] which he now bitterly regrets and which he puts down to being "politically naive and poorly educated".'

Luciana Berger, as alluring as she may be has no connection whatsoever with the city she intends to represent in parliament. Indeed, when quizzed by Liverpool based media types about scouse history, she exhibited an alarming lack of local knowledge.

It appears that she thought Shankly was a cut of meat, Goodison was a Reformation Bishop, Scotland Road was in Glasgow, Stanley Park was an industrial estate, the Royal Liver Building was a kosher butcher's shop, Jimmy Tarbuck was a wild west gunslinger, and Lime Street was where the lady-boys hang out in Singapore.


Her thoughts about 'The Boys From The Black Stuff' are unprintable in the pages of a family orientated satirical website such as theSpoof.com

Which has prompted 'proper Scouser' former Trade Union activist and couch potato Jim Royle out of 'The Royle Family' aka actor Ricky Tomlinson to consider standing against Ms Berger in the General Election under the campaign slogan:

"BERGER? MY !!!!!"

In a tit-for-tat gesture, Independent Labour activists in the city are considering putting scouse stand-up comedian Stan Boardman up as a candidate for Kensington and Chelsea.

I've just seen her facebook pic, let's face it if you were a male in Liverpool, there is only one person you'd vote for, sod the politics. We have had years of Margaret Beckett and other Labour hags. Well done on the Labour party for getting some totty into a safe seat. I hope the Tories are watching and get some fit young 20 year olds into their safe seats. This is real political progress you know.

But man enough to stand on the front line for his political beliefs and even do time for them.
How many politicians do we have that would do that.
I would'nt mind more like him.
