Labour's Debbie Abraham celebrates victory. |
The Conservatives have been quick to stress ruling governmental parties rarely perform well in byelections (An excuse weaker than a broken door left hanging on its hinges) while their 'demolition' partner The Liberal Democrats also profuse an equally weaker excuse by stating they had won same number of seats they did when Labour won at general elections a few months ago. Would one say eight months ago was a few months ago? It is short of four months to make it a year.The CondemnedLib duo government need to sit up and stop making lame duck excuses as to their recent byelection losses.
It is not an 'anti-government' vote as stated by Simon Hughes of the LibDems. It is a message from the vast majority struggling financially hard up UK public to the cabinet of millionaires hugely disconnected from the plight of ordinary people it pledged to serve 'a few months ago'. Nick Clegg and The LibDems have changed political directions more times than a chameleon changes colours. Cameron has done nothing but cut and cut and cut...the only cut he has to impose yet is on his waist line(Yes of course blame it on the few extra Christmas puddings).The increase VAT,sky rocketing fuel prices, high unemployment rate, bankers awarding themselves million pound bonuses though a few months ago banks were rescued by tax payers; have done nothing to quell public's discontent.The poor get poorer and the rich get richer.The social classification of Britons as in the medieval times from serfs to kings have never been more evident.
Little drops make an ocean...Oldham is tiny ripped stitch in the political pants of Mr&Mr CamClegg which should not be ignored.It is at risk of being a full blown unrepairable tear come May 2015.Results of major parties:
Labour: 14,718 (42.1%)
Lib Dems: 11,160 (31.9%)
Conservatives: 4,481 (12.8%)
