Also is the MP-eating thing from Tony Benn or some other "radical" like Douglas Carswell?
Talking of Carswell everyone should read his guardian interview from last year to see how utterly mental he is and how he's basically joined UKIP because he doesn't like being told what to do.

Is she the one who posted loads of stuff about killing men? Or am I getting confused with a different candidate?

How on earth did he not realise that Ukip are Club Nigel and as a (now the) Ukip MP he'd be on the tightest of tight leashes?

Some SNP MPs tried to take Dennis Skinner's seat in parliament.

They were moved on swiftly.

If you read Skinner's book (you should read Skinner's book) he says that you bagsy a seat in the chamber by putting down a card with your name on it on the seat before prayers. It's only his seat because he's there at 8am every morning when no other fucker is.

The Labour Party in Northern Ireland (yes, it does exist) have come out in favour of Burnham's bid over the weekend - apparently he has been a vocal supporter of their campaign to pressure the NEC into allowing them to stand candidates in elections.

If Burnham does become leader its possible labour could field their first candidates ever at next years Assembly elections (the SDLP have agreed to this in principle as they are STV based and vote splitting isn't much of an issue, FPTP elections still remain off the table)

The first couple of Cheeky Nando's things were funny, but people have started getting it slightly wrong and casting too wide a net in their characterisations in my opinion.

Matthew D'Ancona in the Guardian posted:

There are serious practical barriers to the scrapping of the Human Rights Act...As I wrote last week, if anyone has the intellectual firepower to square all the circles it is Gove. He will also need political guile, and confidence that David Cameron will stand by him when things get sticky, which they will.

The worst thing to come out of the clearly orchestrated viral Nando's thing is finding out they use caged birds, which considering their pricing structure is insane.

I like chicken too, but when their menu consists of one type of meat and one type of sauce, it's a little baffling as to why people go hog-wild over it and are willing to regularly pay twice what it's worth.
