Can You Vote In The UK?

at

Earlier today.

Members of the UK Labour Party in Dublin and supporters met at the James Connolly statue in Dublin city to call on Irish people living in the UK to vote Labour.

Dan O’Neill writes:

We are here to call on Irish people living in the UK to turn out and vote Labour tomorrow.

For years now the UK has witnessed the Tories closing libraries, maternity and accident and emergency departments, mental health facilities, women’s refuges, services for people with disabilities and nurseries. And yet tax cuts keep coming for the rich.

The Conservatives have created division at every opportunity — the division that led to Brexit, and has driven a wedge between our two islands.

The Conservative Party’s reckless handling of Brexit has not just undermined the future wellbeing of the UK economy, but it has also greatly jeopardised the wellbeing of the Irish economy. Their willingness to play political games with the day-to-day lives of people on both sides of the Irish Sea is, frankly, unforgivable.

The UK Labour Party calls for a society which puts everyone first, rather than putting the interests of the wealthy above all else. One in which workers enjoy some security rather than being forced onto zero-hour contracts; one which protects the right of those at work to have their say in their workplace.

We support the UK Labour Party and urge our Irish friends living and working in the UK to do the same.

Thanks Dan

    Will be voting Labour, but can’t help think I’m a turkey voting for Christmas…
    (although my MP voted against article 50 despite the Labour whip…which makes it a bit more palatable).

    Gah! Fupp sake, get a bloody proper mic. How can such poxy rethoric be “forgiven”?

    This bleddy video has driven a “wedge” in my ears.

    Viva Corbyn!

    Fupp the sell out that is Irish Labour.

    How many of these people work in SIPTU and just skipped outside on their lunch break for thirty seconds?

    Grim.

      Why wouldn’t they be? You could canvas for your local TD in Argentina, should the mood take you, just highly unlikely to yield any votes

    You now remember the Irish Labour Party.
    Or do you?
    The current brood of leftyites zombies is terrifying.
    I’m not a fan of Corbyn and his Alt-Left politics.
    May is just Cameron in drag.

    Paddy Herald tells me it will be a hung UK Parliament.
    And that all Commies should be burned at stakes.
    I think he meant steaks though.
    He talked of burning them well done.

    ”THE FUTURE IS TENSE HENRY” he shouted at me.
    And this was earlier on today.

    Mind your self.

    I do tend to spend the whole overnight thing watching the statistics, as they come in, live on tv, across all the rolling news channels that broadcast that type of thing. This, despite I know that @3am, it’s all merely speculation.
    I worked a triple shift on Autocue at SkyNews, 36 hours – lots of Pro Plus, copious Red Bull, a little SP’d (I think we know what that is) and lots of coffee, back in ’98. ( It was the British Local Council Elections.). Adam Boulton, who’d been on air for nearly 20 hours, reporting, analyzing on possibilities of outcomes, had clearly been on a similar regime to myself, began to realize he was losing his senses. @5am, he admitted on camera that he didn’t know what was going on, or indeed where he was. One commercial break later, I think Kay Burley was next up to make sense of statistics.
