The first one I can remember was 1979. My first active one was 1992. Just call me Mr Jinx.

The first one(s) I remember were the two in 1974: the first I could vote in was 1983.

Jez is going to launch a new lefty political party. Yes, another one.

“By next year’s local elections—long before that, I hope—we’re going to have something in place that is very clear, and everyone will want to be part of and support.”

Just like everyone didn’t want to support the last party he was the leader of, eh?

Is that the one with added Nellist I mentioned earlier in the week?

If it draws away the remaining swivel-eyed anti-Semite wankers from the Labour Party, let him get on with it.

Do any of these people ever do any work? Jez, in fairness, has a good reputation for constituency work. But the rest of them just seem to form parties, lift broad brush policy and campaign on the same subjects.

Or in Claudia Webbe's case break the law.

Lots of people who you'd think might be interested in this seem to be gravitating towards the Greens, though some of the old guard may be less than keen.

I wonder if some Labour/ex-Labour defections are coming. If so, we can reuse some quotes from Jez from the Change UK era when he strongly in favour of by-elections.

[Tubby Isaacs]

One possibility is that the Greens predominate everywhere that doesn't have a large Muslim population or a defecting Labour MP. This new party would therefore be fighting Galloway's goons directly, and could actually do us all a service by wiping them out.

Arise?

"Here, Jeremy, can you stand a bit more centrally? Get the slogan in behind you?"

So the Magic Grandad likes a bit of Shelley.

I would have thought Ozymandias was more apt...

I don't know. Hywel Bennett's portrayal of an entitled and bone idle, yet undoubtedly erudite, man who drifted through life sponging off the goodwill of his friends, was very memorable.
