BRACKNELL

Bracknell is the old seat of Andrew MacKay husband of Julie Kirkbride, the husband and wife team that had lots of questions but very few excuses concerning their expense claims. So Mr MacKay jumped ship from this very safe Tory seat, to a very safe pension from us. If he had been forced out at the time and had to quit, he would have recieved nothing. But by clinging on until the next election, he gets a very handsome pension.

Now the Tory faithful were falling over themselves for this seat. One of which being Iain Dale the Grand Dame of Tory Internet activism, maybe because he has his head so far up his arse or the local Tories are homophobic. He didn't win. He is now running around the country desperate for a Tory safe seat in repayment for his Internet activism. But since losing a relatively safe seat in Norfolk, the Tories see him as a liability and not an asset.

Bracknell itself has had a little change from the boundary commission simply swapping wards with neighbouring Windsor.

This is the first time showing for the BNP in a General Election the latest results shows a very good showing with nearly 1,500 votes. Mark Burke the candidate is a local councillor and so shows that the BNP presence is growing and could mean at least a deposit saving performance. The BNP as they will be in any part of the UK, will be the only party truly standing up for the rights of the British people. When UKIP voters realise that they could stop splitting the votes, and turn this from a deposit saving exercise and into a challenge the main three.
