Hornsey punishes warmongers and votes Lib Dem
You may remember Tariq Ali's advice in Red Pepper to Punish the warmongers: vote Lib Dem. It seems the voters in Hornsey and Wood Green have done just that: a massive swing to the Lib Dems, up 17.5%. Their candidate Lynne Featherstone achieved 20,512 votes, with Barbara Roche down 11.6% at 18,117.
It doesn't get better than this. I guess people in Hornsey and WG took Ali's word. Now hopefully Galloway will win. Did Tariq Ali made in prediction/advice in this case?
