The LibDems are up to their old tricks…saying one thing but doing another….and the BBC is claiming the credit for revealing one story…
In a recording from a question-and-answer session obtained by the BBC, Sir Vince, who is the party’s candidate in the Twickenham seat he lost in 2015, said he had a good relationship with people from other parties, adding: “I particularly met a lot of people on the Labour side whose views are very close to mine.”
However Guido says it was otherwise …
Publicly the LibDems are telling voters they cannot work with Labour because Jeremy Corbyn is “toxic“. This bombshell tape from LBC and Sky News exposes that fib for what it is. Vince Cable and Sarah Olney have been recorded telling members they should collaborate with Labour
In the recording obtained by Sky News and LBC radio, he told the meeting: “There’s value is value in a good relationship with people in other parties, and I particularly met a lot of people on the Labour side whose views are very close to mine.
The Guardian claims it was the Telegraph…rather oddly…
Vince Cable appears to have hinted at when he told Lib Dems in Ealing that they could do worse than backing the Labour candidate next door to him – Rupa Huq – he gets secretly recorded and then outed in the Daily Telegraph.
Only the BBC thinks it was the BBC that scooped this story….here’s one they can also claim…if only Guido hadn’t got there first….and I’m sure they will such is their interest in exposing fake news….these are fake LibDem newspapers that are in fact campaign material for the election…..
Lying Lib Dems Peddle Fake News
The LibDems are widely regarded as the dirtiest campaigners in British politics, stooping to lows well beneath their Tory and Labour rivals. This takes the biscuit even by their standards. In Wimbledon and Raynes Park the LibDems have produced a fake newspaper with the aim of deceiving voters into believing they are reading neutral coverage about their candidate. There is no imprint on the front page, the imprint at the bottom of the back page is not visible to the naked eye. This really is quite something – it includes a finance ‘column’ by a ‘finance editor’ called Phil Ling. This is a straight lie. Phil Ling is not a ‘finance editor’, he was the 2015 LibDem candidate down the road in Tooting.
The LibDems are doing this – deliberately misleading and lying to voters – around the country. Here is Sarah Olney’s fake newspaper in Richmond. It has a tiny imprint that many won’t be able to read. It includes a “special report” purporting to be written by a journalist. This is a lie – it is campaign literature written by a spinner in LibDem HQ. There has been a lot of hand-wringing recently about parties paying for adverts in local newspapers. This from the LibDems is a hundred times worse.
Shouldn’t this kind of lying disqualify them from running candidates at the next election.
No because the BBBC wants to overthrow the Conservatives and are giving up on Liebour, the LimpDims need to be there or UKIP will have to be the Leftard’s party of choice. (joke)
Around here it is the Herald.
On the back page is a cut-out coupon to indicate support for the LibDems. Set in the bottom margin, in writing barely one milli-metre high, is the name of the publisher and the candidate.
But who is the publisher for the rest of the ‘newspaper’? Putin?
“Sir Vince”
Weasel republican traitor!
I defy anyone to be more anti-Lib Dem than me but I doubt that the above-mentioned ‘tricks’ are confined to the Lib Dems. I was an election agent on several occasions and never came across any requirement to put the imprint on the front page of a leaflet. I am sitting with a recent Conservative leaflet in front of me and not only is the font size of their imprint TINY but it’s printed with a purple background and hardly visible. As for newspapers which pretend not to be party literature I suspect that that device is used by more than the Lib Dems. But I totally agree that Lib Dem literature is packed with fake stories. In fact, you could say that the Lib Dems are the ultimate fakers.
