the point being we haven't heard him do anything at all, so how could he possibly be a shoe in for a safe labour seat. Wouldn't that be for those who have some credibility in the area, some connection apart from his mother.
a lot of people here who would die sooner than vote for Labour but are still outraged that someone somewhere has suggested someone else stand for a Labour seat...
Relax, guys, just concentrate on finding Boris a safe seat.
