Yea sure, David Davis returned to Parliament on 11 July, having (re)won the seat of Haltemprice and Howden with a majority of 15,355. For the innumerate among us, that’s fifteen thousand, three hundred and fifty five. Not a bad result, but slightly less impressive given that neither the Liberal Democrats nor the Labour Party put forward a candidate. Which kind of makes the whole thing a bit of a waste of time.
But the bi-election did throw up one interesting result – Tess Culnane of the National Front managed to beat Gemma Garrett of the Miss Great Britain Party by 23 votes. Now, I don’t want to be crass about it, but you have to be sick bastard to vote for the National Front over Miss Great Britain.
In case you didn’t know, The National Front is a white nationalist organisation founded in 1967 in opposition to multi-racialism and immigration. That’s how they describe themselves. Others would use slightly less generous and ambiguous terms. These might include “Nazis”, “racists”, “dick splashes” or “knob jockeys”, while our American friends would, quite rightly, refer to them as a “douche bags”. Not that anyone would know what that meant.
It’s a damning indictment on the people of Haltemprice and Howden. Not only would I vote for the Miss Great Britain Party over the National Front, I’d probably vote for them over Labour, the Conservatives and the Lib Dems too. In fact, I wouldn’t even demand an election. I’d be totally cool if the Miss Great Britain Party took power through a lethal, smokin’ hot putsch. A coup d’freakin' gorgeous.
I mean, I’d sympathise with the National Front supporters if Gemma Garrett wasn’t that hot, but she’s seriously hot. Right now, there are 544 people in North East Yorkshire who deserve a kicking. The National Front? You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.
