Left-winger to replace Gapes at next election
Left-winger Sam Tarry has been selected to stand for Labour in Ilford South at the next election. The seat is currently occupied by Mike Gapes, who was elected as a Labour MP but has refused constituents a by-election since his defection to TIG.
Congratulations to Labour’s new PPC.

Brilliant! I remember when he used to be a spokesman for Momentum and did a lot of interviews on TV – he seems really good and very articulate.
Those interviews were really impressive. He’s a good egg, him.

Seen this man in interview on TV, on the usual political programmes, he’s brilliant, ran rings round the interviewer and the other guests.
Off topic but hope this might help someone… if you use Chrome browser you might start seeing annoying ‘hover cards’ drop down when your cursor passes over tab headers – like I did half an hour ago.
Somebody called ‘blackMasters’ posted instructions that got rid of the stupid things no bother.
Presumably Google pay one team to think up useless crap and another team to figure out how to flush it away?
1. Go to chrome://flags/#tab-hover-cards
2. Click on the drop down and choose ‘Disabled’
Wrong gender!
Mike Gapes has certainly been told what the constituents of Ilford South think. And this proves that all the defectors to TiG knew this would happen, which is why they refused to hold by elections. (Obviously)
Money grubbing bastards
Well done!
