Tory-Liebore Scheme Scuppered by Gable

It has been revealed that the Conservatives and Labour had planned to cooperate to keep BNP leader Nick Griffin out of parliament. Tory strategists had agreed to not stand a candidate against Nick, only changing their mind when ‘anti-fascists’ warned them what a stupid idea it was.

Under the proposal, the Tories would have agreed not to put up a candidate against Mrs Hodge in the hope of giving her a better chance of defeating the far-right party leader at the next general election.

But the plan was killed off after anti-fascist group Searchlight said that the pact could backfire by fuelling Mr Griffin’s victim status.”

Yet more proof of the close-knit relations between the tweedle-dee, tweedle dum parties, and the sham democratic system in the UK. Standing against Nick in a straight forward, democratic battle is apparently out of the question. Just in case they don’t agree with the results of the electorate exercising their democratic rights – and Nick Griffin wins.

This probably would have backfired, and unfortunately, Gerry Gable has been in this game a long time.

About Margaret Hodge

HodgeLady Margaret Hodge will attempt to hold on to her Barking seat at the next general election, she will be up against one of the most well-known politicians of this century. Love or hate Nick Griffin, he is instantly recognisable to the public. Hodge has repeatedly reduced her winning majority at each general election since 1997.

  • 1944 - Born in Cairo, Egypt. Her father was an extremely wealthy German steel magnate.
  • 1966 – She had a privileged education, attending two public schools. Obtained a 3rd class Batchelor’s degree in economics from the prestigious London School of Economics (LSE).
  • 1973 - Becomes a Labour councillor in Islington, London. Established Labour councillors view her as one of a raft of middle-class activists taking over their party. She was quickly raised to Chair of the housing committee.
  • 1982 – Elected as Council Leader, a position she would hold for ten years.
  • 1983-1992 Her leadership is compared to Albanian communist despot Enver Hoxha. Her council was criticised for taking 5 years to respond to a letter which contained allegations of child abuse whilst the writer was in council care.
  • 1992 – Resigns after The Evening Standard investigates claims of child abuse occurring in Islington’s child care facilities. Pursues a career as a consultant for Price Waterhouse.

At this point, a healthy democratic society would have ensured that this woman was never allowed to obtain any public office again. Having demonstrated a lack of ability as council leader.

Voting Record Since 2001

  • Has never voted on a transparent Parliament.
  • Voted for introducing a smoking ban.
  • Voted for introducing ID cards.
  • Voted for introducing foundation hospitals.
  • Voted for introducing student top-up fees.
  • Voted for Labour’s anti-terrorism laws.
  • Voted for the Iraq war.
  • Voted against investigating the Iraq war.

The channel 4 debate which featured Andrew Brons MEP, and Hodge, showed her up for a pinhead. She’s not a very bright woman, and I suspect she will avoid a confrontation with Nick Griffin, lest he embarrass her in exactly the manner that communist Labour traitor politicians deserve.
