Am I alone in thinking it very strange that @RishiSunak's response to a free and fair democratic vote in the #RochdaleByElection is to give a ten-minute lecture at the Downing Street podium as if the UK had been suddenly plunged into an existential national emergency? Weird.
@HughSykes @RishiSunak Whenever it does something like this, I think … what’s he trying to distract us from?? 🤷🏻♀️
@HughSykes @Anniepop2027 Except it’s not free & fair when someone uses info from October & get a candidate removed at the last moment so they can’t be replaced. I have a contact with family in Rochdale who said ‘they don’t give a f*** about the war, they care about non-whites’. So a racism vote.
