Central government has underfunded many councils and is the reason why a lot of councils are either bankrupt, in disrepair or public services cut. So it isn't a case of disinterest, it's a lack of funds. As for Reform UK LTD, I would have thought anyone with a long standing history of working with the police would have at least the basic common sense to not align themselves with a right party trading on nationalism, populism, racism and culture war. If you can't even see that then you've got bob hope and no hope from getting my vote. The party is ultimately controlled by it's largest shareholder, Nigel Farage (53%), so its a business that people subscribe to. This is the same Farage who has had links with the National Front, BNP, Conservates and even had an invite from Hitlers grand daughters finance minister to an AfD right wing rally in Germany. Even when he was an MEP he rarely bohter turning up for work and spent more time making money on the speakers trail in the state supporting Trump rather than being in the UK doing anything useful. Now that he sees Trump may not be quite as good a meal ticket as he thought he is back to milking the UK again. It's a pity you didn't stand as an independent because then you may have been more credible and believable, but standing shoulder to shoulder with failed politican Farage just makes you uncredible from the starting block. Sorry Dave, it's a no from me.
First, they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out-because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out-because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me.
Oh look a racist
You are just another Tory Liar.
You have my vote, would not vote for sir Flip Flop or Mr could not be bothered to meet the D day heroes
Local politics, hate it. What I want is someone who will work hard for our local communities- fight our corner so to speak for investment etc. In general, I am not that interested in which party they represent.
State of him
Oh hum diddly dum another reformist sit com. Natty jumper.
This is a vote about the whole current political system. If you dont vote then dont complain later. OK the current voting system is rigged in favour of the two main parties BUT it is time to change that. Vote Reform whatever part of the country you are in, I am out leafleting on a daily basis in south devon. GO FOR IT FOLKS they cant be any worse than the current load of self serving plonkers.
Vomit
Lets hear from the Green candidate. Reform are furthur right wing than the tories!
All Candidates from the Wirral have been invited to come one.
That's an interesting statement, can you explain what you mean by that? What do you mean by far right exactly and how is the Reform party far right?
@@timpower124By "far right" I mean a party which selects someone who has views like Ian Gribbin to be a parliamentary candidate for them....is he far right enough for you??
Reform are not far right it is the looney lefties attacking Reform because they see Reform as a threat. .
No one in their mind would vote for the green oligarchs ,they just steal ...
Please Wirral channel keep politics off the channel. Reform are an even further right party than the Tories that have absolutely no properly funded policies! As for voting for a limited company run by billionaires with Farage as its leader not a hope in hell
All candidates have been invited and Normal Service will resume soon. plenty in the pipeline
If I lived in Wallasey, I’d vote Reform. Because all Labour run constituencies are statistically the most deprived with the most crime.
So Tory centralised government defunds Labour councils and you blame Labour and going to vote for a single issue racist party. What planet are you on?
@@jackryder-sw9rk the planet of common sense. Unlike you who’ll continue to vote Lib Lab Con and struggle to understand why your life’s so difficult. And that racist crap... no ones arsed about it anymore. 😉
You are just another More Conservative Party
Labour have not represented me for decades, all my life I have lived on the Wirral . I’ve watched factory after factory close and Eagle turn up for a photo! Be brave and don’t be like sheep voting for who your parents and grandparents voted for. Give a fresh pair of eyes to represent us in Parliament, Eagle won’t worry she will be rewarded with a seat in the House of Lords even if she loses . Yes I will vote Reform because I want a future with hope , not being ignored and a MP who will earn my vote not take it for granted.
Labour councils destroy and steal everthing...they get their hands on..
Thank Thatcher for that. She started it all.
Blair started letting all the immigrants in fact!
Labour for me and most people I know who have a working brain
😂
Used to be for me, but I cannot vote for Alison McGovern, so Jo Bird will get my vote.
I’d always enjoyed this channel in the past but I didn’t subscribe to get a political broadcast, ridiculous.
We are not political, we are giving the opportunity to the people of the Wirral to have there own say. Each party has been invited. Normal service is and will resume.
Now this is a real shame as until today I really enjoyed this channel but by posting this far-right twaddle you have just shown yourself to be just another poorly educated mouthpiece for these poorly disguised thugs. I will be advising my friends to also unsubscribe, which they will do as they have I.Q's higher than a glass of water.
Poorly educated? The left do ALL the educating in Britain so blame them. 👍🏻
I am considering voting for this party but I’m hesitant 😊
Hesitation is a last ditch attempt by your brain to make you see sense and not vote for Farage.
Vote for who you believe it’s not up to anyone else like soap monkey who obviously knows your brain really a mind reader!
@@soapmonkey6357voting Labour is your brain trying to tell you it’s stopped working properly.
Reform UK -- the latest incarnation of Farage's publicity vehicle. Hopefully this bloke ends up battling the Freedom Alliance candidate for last place!
I didn't realise The Wirral Channel was just a far right mouthpiece.
It's not. We are not political. We have invited every candidate to say their peice, giving all equal opportunity to offer their promises for the people of the Wirral to vote on. Some parties have not responded yet, others have planned a meet up to be filmed. Watch this space to see who participates. 👍
People attack freedom of speech , well done for showing what Democracy means . Your channel is very interesting and don’t listen to lefty loonies .
Reform party stands for racist language, climate denial and deception - no good will come of this populist movement
Was the Reform party Representative the only one who bothered to appear ? Maybe you could invite the reform candidate for Wirral West, Kenneth Ferguson onto the channel. 👍🇬🇧🏴
Hi . All local candidates have been invited to take part. Some have not responded, some will be filmed soon. Stay tuned to see who does and doesn't take up the offer.
Good Luck. I'll be voting Reform, here in North Wales. Now is our chance to rid of this awful UniParty.
🤮
Make Wallasey great again? What about the investment in New Brighton? Birkenhead has not had development for decades and is in dire need.
Hello, New Brighton is in the Wallasey constituency too
Great update as always. I totally agree also other parts of Wirral to like west Wirral as well that also gets left behind to as you said we want to bring these changes to all Wirral not just Birkenhead. Totally agree with Wallasey like New Brighton to yes New Brighton is looking better than it was but it could be a lot better with more things there worth going to see and in Wallasey and liscard to.
Hasn't had to drop out for being racist, yet.
Britain needs saving from these self-serving ex-Tories. Just more of the same woth Tory+ aka Reform UK. Only reforms will be to further line the pockets of the foreign billionaires who fund them. I see you David Burgess-Joyce, I can really see you!
Wallasey's Labour representation has achieved little to no improvement over the years, if anything it has been managed decline. Same with Birkenhead, Labour again. Nothing to lose by changing in 2024 to vote Reform UK.
Nothing to gain either, why would I vote for Tory+ when the original ones have shafted this country. He can get in the bin with the rest of the party (which is a limited company by the way), which is bankrolled by more foreign millionaires and billionaires with huge vested interests in our country. How's that worked out so far these last 14 years? Then there's good old Nigel, bankrolled by his Sugar Daddy, Arron Banks, a privately educated ex-city trader, chauffeur driven millionaire with an account at Coutts, and hangs out with Rupert Murdoch. Vote Reform UK if you want even more of the same self-serving Tories who have jumped ship. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing again and again, yet expecting a different result.
Why would you change from Labour to this shower? If Labour don't do anything, surely Green, Lib or TUSC is a better vote for you?
Well done David. You have my vote. Wallasey under Labour has always been a dying peninsula. Eagle is a disgrace, she does nothing for Wallasey unless its election time. She doesnt live here and has no interest in our town whatsoever. If we dont vote for change we wont get it.
I can assure you life in Birkenhead was a lot better in the 80’s than now. People in their 20’s could get on the housing ladder. My nans house 19 Bidston ave Claughton sold for 19 thousand in 1989 a 3 bed terrace. These days about 170,000.
Thank you for this, I found it fascinating. I grew up on the Wirral and live in Canada now. Your channel keeps the Wirral alive for me. Its always been a special place.
Just a crying shame we’ve imported most of the third world into our country including our city 🥲
Your working out where somewhere is in a painting or old photograph is really interesting, thank you!
Thanks, most of the time it's relatively obvious the location in an old photograph, but sometimes the landscape has changed so much it's not so easy. I am still assuming I got it right.
I was born and raised in bidston village in the early fifties my family farmed bidston hall farm and Stone farm in School Lane. From my memories that bridge is on bidston moss over the birket.. I attended the old bidston c of e primary school . The cattle you see in the picture belonged to the Povall's at stone farm.
Great information. I've been told the pond in the picture was known as the triangle.
The nightlife in Birkenhead in the mid 1980’s was brilliant. The old post office pub there was a female singer in there belting out great songs. I wonder where she is today. On to Ruperts and Atmosphere really brilliant venues. At the end of the night if you hadn’t got lucky onto the snooker hall or Scooby’s for a brilliant burger can still remember the taste. What’s it like now for nightlife anybody know?
Great update as always.
Wow. How much it changed over the water
The Pond you are finding was called the Triang or Triangle when we were kids in the 50s
Maps, you have got to love 'em. Brilliant detective work; this could be the best video you have posted and, trust me, that is saying a lot. Bidston is so interesting. If you drive through it now, blink and you have missed it. However, back in the day, a magistrate closed the pub there. The regulars had a habit of putting the Bidston lighthouse out and lighting a bonfire on the Bidston Moss. Thus, tempting boats entering the Mersey Bar onto the Hoyle Bank. At low tide, they would steal the cargo. The village wasn't allowed a pub until they built the Corsair.
Thanks. Some great info there. Sometimes the location of a picture is not so obvious when the landscape has changed so much.
We used to dig up bits of rail and track pins in the woods in Wirral grammar as kids, the old sandstone platform is still there
Great. Where is the old sandstone platform?
Between the cows and the foreground trees initial thought was the possibility the building in the distant gap could be St James Church ?
Yup, definitely a church spire there .
Very interesting great update as always
It looks like Kabul down Birkenhead now
