dronskisaint01 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 I read in our local media that Lowe was the Reform candidate for Great Yarmouth...not my constituency but close and was holding a public meeting at a pub about 20 minutes away. I have often wondered how it would feel to get the chance to tell him how I feel and, at my age I'm not going to get too many chances so I went along and as I entered he was walking towards me in that vile, yellow check jacket so I addressed him by name and he turned, no doubt thinking and asking if I was a supporter....I knew I'd not get much of a chance before the knuckle draggers would surround me so I asked what he was doing so far from his home. I asked, as loudly as I could without being too aggressive what, as a failed businessman and bringer of all things that Brexit has brought to the UK, he thought he could bring to a area that was already suffering. His henchmen gathered around and suggested that we talk outside...I said I was happy to but felt that the assembled pub crowd should know what sort of person they were putting up as a candidate. I was asked if I believed in democracy - I said that was what I thought I was practicing by being there? The landlord then came and started shouldering me towards the door - been a few decades since I was evicted from a pub - and I went on my way. In real terms it was all pretty futile but I can't tell you how good it felt to get off my chest all those things that I usually feel when singing 'Swing Lowe'...and can recommend the experience tp anyone who sees him and gets the chance to speak - it's a therapeutic and cleansing few minutes worth! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was what I was exercising....? Not done to self-aggrandise, merely to share how good it felt so many years after the 'Lowe out' demonstrations and the singing of the songs...and, I guess, to recommend how good it felt.

rallyboy Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 You did the right thing, I saw Matt Hancock on Westminster Bridge last year and my first thought was to tell him exactly what he is. I didn't as I was in behaving mode, but I regret it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kraken Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 I’m not sure I’d take an hour out of my day for Rupert Lowe but whatever, as long as you enjoyed yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chance to do both - suffice to say I would not have gone near a Reform meeting without the Southampton connection so, on balance I'd say that you're as wrong on that as you, consistently, are on Brexit..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a1ex2001 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I had totally missed that old rupes had become a Brexit fantasist I guess it fits with the stinking turd that was the rest of his career! I wouldn’t have gone out of the house for this event but if you felt the need to express your democratic right then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 I like the way they say he still divides opinion, as a middle manager at the Reform corporation, that is literally his job. His only purpose now is to stoke division, to split communities, to say controversial things to be in the spotlight - If he attempted to actually help his constituency by sorting local issues, Nigel's company wouldn't be able to raise funds off the back of it. So expect more thinly-veiled hate speech, imagined wokery, vague fantasy policies and climate change denial - that's Rupert's sole job as an employee of Farage Limited. He's not even local, I'm sure it said absolute Kent on his business card. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
