In Rochdale, only 26.7% voted for 3 main parties. The Galloway win is a rejection of the hopelessness of Westminster politics. Yes, candidates and Gaza were a factor. But in the North East I’m winning support from all parties. People want positive policies to fix broken Britain.…

@MayorJD Some clarification needed Jamie - do you see George Galloway's win as hopeful (if a rejection of heoplessness). Do you ally yourself with George Galloway?

@MayorJD Absolutely right Jamie….you really should consider standing against right-wing “labour” ..perhaps in Newcastle North or Sunderland?

@MayorJD 👍 We must vote tactically at the GE. Anything other than Labour or Tory. Preferably an independent where possible.

@MayorJD @MikeDeadman3 I think we are going to have a shock come the GE I think a number of independent candidates will win in certain areas I think people are really sick of the main parties

@MayorJD The results show that Britain has broken free of the chains that where "party loyalty". Perhaps we have enough instant access to knowledge that we can make informed votes now? Perhaps we are just so repulsed by the establishment that we will do the work to find an alternative?

@MayorJD GG + Independent took a huge vote. We must reject 'The Mob' Mafia currently infecting/corrupting in Parliament. Supporting Palestinians saying no to Genocide/yes to human rights will reflect how working UK tax payers want for themselves. Next:

@MayorJD In the current political climate a vote for you as Independent is the only one that will secure the future of the North East. As my mother would have said “ the others make promises that are like pie crust” ! Voting together for a better future 🤞

@MayorJD George is positive ? You mean he spouts stuff that pleases people but never delivers. Climate change denier too, No critical thinking yet again by voters. However the other two major parties deserve a kick up the butt and now they have it.
