Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
10 April St Anns Byelection - help oust Labour
Remember to vote or Labour will get in again and it will be the same old story for a few more years.
The Greens nearly won last time and only need a handful more votes to get across the line.
And remember to take ID.

I was expelled from the Labour party some years ago. Being a critic of Israel is strictly verboten and Labour Friends of Israel have spies who report to central office. They trawled my social media posts and discovered that two days after joining I had posted that Khan supported an Israeli festival in London so I would vote Green. The week after Corbyn resigned I was expelled. There is no appeal. Since then Labours support for right wing policies including genocide have been dispiriting and horrifying. I don't agree with all of the Greens policies but we need an alternative to Starmers vicious policies

And they've just backtracked on the already watered down inquiry into the Pakistani rape gangs. Furious to say the least.

In my view the New Labour Government is slightly better than the Conservative Government.
But there is a long list of reservations, beginning with the credibility of the current PM.
Haringey has provided one of his New-Labour MPs. They have in common the ability to pick up and later to discard principles, just as the prevailing political wind blows. For the individuals concerned, this is obviously a successful tactic in the short term.
The ditching of most environmental policies is the most prominent example. Their wholesale support for the Israeli government is as regrettable as their continuing support for the government of Ukraine is sound.
The "iron chancellor" has made a series of mistakes, from not acting to increase Fuel Duty, to acting to cut Winter Fuel Allowance.
The description by the Health Secretary of the NHS as "broken" was disgraceful.
I have no financial interest in drawing attention to the recent book, Get In.

Things must be close. The Labour pack are going house to house chasing people to the polling booth.
I told one lot that I was voting Reform and they couldn't get away quick enough. It was the political equivalent of waving a crucifix and spraying them with Holy water.
Incidentally, I voted Green.
Go and vote people. Labour isn't working (on any level).

You're a good man Gordon (or at least you are today).
The young chap from the Greens was telling me that every vote counts. He's right. Don't assume the Green have enough. Get out and vote to make sure. Show the marxists the door.

It's not enough to not support Labour. You've got to be anti-Labour.
Don't waste your vote on the Socialists, Conservatives, LibDems or Reform. The Greens are the only ones who can beat Labour.

Just got back from voting, somewhat to my surprise the polling station was quite crowded with people waiting to vote, very unusual for a local election but good to see.

So who won?
There's nothing on the Haringey Council website nor the twitter feeds of the relevant parties.

As it’s a single seat election I doubt they’ll start counting until this afternoon

Greens win by a huge margin.
The stench of Labour is slowly leaving St Ann's.

It is indeed. Let that be a lesson to them.

Phenomenal win for the Greens
