Has Hartlepool by election had a labour win/hold then?

Oh no it hasn’t yet.

As you were.
Even the beeb people are being cagey.

Wrong guy I’ve never been in the market for a Cerbera (would love one but missed that boat a long time ago).

That explains the media blanket coverage of curtaingate... Imagine if 14 tory councillors were suspended for Islamophobia. It would be headline news everywhere.

They had almost two dozen suspended in one day over allegations of Islamophobia last year.

I don't think there was much on the news.

The Labour one is on the BBC.

It's a shame it doesn't get wider coverage given the absolute stain of antisemitism and Islamophobia.

Yeah, it's on the Beeb ... CAMBRIDGESHIRE local news!

The main Beeb news site, not a dicky bird - not even in the 'Cambridgeshire news', that's a mother/baby story.

You asked if it was there and it is.

It's on the main politics page though personally I think it should be more prominent.

Nothing on the main page of ITV news either.

Too busy worrying about Boris not filling in a form, rather than actual hate and racism from Labour.

They'll not have any members left at this rate.

Indeed. Sir Kier was all over the very serious issue of the PM's wallpaper on ITV's evening news a few minutes ago.
