After all you've posted about Jeremy Corbyn, Annie, I wonder what you say to voters who feel like you do and say when you're canvassing "I've always voted Labour but I can't stand Corbyn so I won't vote Labour as long as he's the leader".

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 14:03:43

varian, depends, not a lot I can say if they put the phone down or shut the door .

If they choose to talk it is important to speak of their Welsh Labour MP and how important it is that they vote for him/her , it is proving to be damn hard work this time, and canvassing is never easy going ? I think possibly a low turn out .

I do not say - I agree, he is a lying, manipulating man, but I want to

What do you think of May asking Carwyn Jones for his support and his vote?

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 16:29:15

I am not sure if I find it amusing or very sad that you believe May sits for hours at her desk stuffing and addressing envelopes to the public, silly mistake on her part if sge does, Jones is such an unusual surname in Wales.

You really need to calm down dj. Your attempts to attack the Tory party are pathetic, the letter was amusing, end of.

durhamjen Sun 14-May-17 16:51:59

Quite calm, thank you very much.
Who else wants to attack the Tory party?

Did anybody see Marr this morning, and the clip of film showing Corbyn ranting and raving about NATO ( just a few years ago)
Now we are expected to believe that this man of principle has changed his mind and rather likes NATO!

How many Carwyn Jones's are there in Wales?

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 17:22:54

Never counted them, strange you ask a question about anything to do with Wales after your dismissal of the country yesterday dj,

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 17:27:26

Rosesarered, you are speaking of the pacifist who supported the IRA and called Hamas his friends - who has now decided he isn't a pacifist

Although Carwyn is not currently in the top 100 baby names you’ll often find a person called Carwyn in a Welsh community

You could find one or two people with the surname Jones as well in Wales oddly enough.

rosesarered Sun 14-May-17 18:47:19

No! grin

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 18:58:11

Jones in Wales ? surely not in Wales. ?

Chewbacca Sun 14-May-17 19:03:07

I'm sorry Annie but I'm afraid that expecting us to believe that anyone is called Jones, in Wales, is just stretching credibility too far! Really, what are you thinking of! grin

nigglynellie Sun 14-May-17 19:05:05

Not at all sure about that annie, I'd need some proof!!grin

Chewbacca Sun 14-May-17 19:05:38

I've just found 14 people called Carwyn Jones on Facebook

rosesarered Sun 14-May-17 19:05:50

And a few links.

durhamjen Sun 14-May-17 19:11:51

Only one who is the leader of the Welsh Assembly who was sent a letter to him personally, signed by May.

durhamjen Sun 14-May-17 19:15:22

Proof?

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 19:20:35

Loads of them in my family ,i am not one but Grannie was and her sister and brothers, parents, grand parents, nieces , nephews , grin, you will have to take my word for it .

Oh and my milkman and the chap with the organic veg business i wonder if the postman is.

Yep, several with surname Jones in Wales. I suggest dj get a B.T. Phone book for a town in Wales and start counting

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 19:22:23

Proof of what ? There is a Jones in Wales ? Get a life

Anniebach Sun 14-May-17 19:24:00

If it is true Mrs May has a great sense of humour , if true
,

Chewbacca Sun 14-May-17 19:36:26

I was a Jones . Do I count?

rosesarered Sun 14-May-17 19:38:51

Of course you do! grin I used to date a Jones, I think that counts too.

Chewbacca Sun 14-May-17 19:41:46

Undoubtedly Roses. Shall we all stand in an orderly line whilst a head count is completed?
