Third![^]
Still, held the deposit, unlike the Lib Dems.
As you can see, they do not count the labour vote, they weigh it!
Roll on 2015 and I get my home ward of Limbury!
(That is a winnable ward).
To Victory![^]

You have truly mastered the art of political wafflry. Any normal person would say "The Tories are sh*t and the fascist UKIP monkey stole what support remained."

Hey, you leave my silk purse out of this.
I knew going in that I wasn't going to win, so any gin I may or may not have consumed post count was purely medicinal and not commiserative.

Coming behind UKIP is pretty embarrassing for the Tories, isn't it?

Good gravy. Even were someone to garner all of the votes it'd hardly qualify as enough for a good traffic jam.
One might (correctly) conjecture that they'll make districts smaller and smaller until everyone can win lose an election.

By god if I lived in Luton I would vote for you...oh wait a minute I wouldn't live in Luton!

Yes, see the two up votes?
That means Tom and at least one other solved it.
However the answer is INITIAL MOVE

Can you explain the Dr Spooner part please.
|
|
|
|
|
A spoonerism[^] is to swap parts of a pair of words or phrase, often the leading letters
|
|
|
|
|
I know it's long after the race and the result is now posted but I actually looked at INITIAL MOVE because all chess games obviously have one but I didn't see the Spooner connection. If I'd visualised it as INITIAL move instead I'd have completed answer and solution. Another time maybe.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

I have a particular attraction to spoonerism[^] and malapropism[^].
When I was younger (a long time ago) a friend of my Dad would have us in fits of laughter with his mixing up of words. He would take parts of two words that sort of meant what he wanted to say and merge them together to make a completely new word. We called them Dudleyisms in his honour.

Unfortunately, the fact that Tom solves it does not help other much about the answer.
