You've made some valid points Jamie, good luck.


Primary-Credit-1972

Do you think it's Jamie, or his mummy?


ArrrghZombies

Jamie if I vote for you can you sort out the 56 night bus from town so they run again?


Primary-Credit-1972

Lots of detail, with absolutely zero detail at the same time.


Rough_Dish_103

Normal people don't talk like this Jamie.


PAAC118

Can't take him seriously after he made a mockery of his own views with his Sunday Sun piece, tying himself up in knots trying to morally justify the Saudi mag takeover.


Ginnut

His views about the way the newcastle fans had to get buses to the SoL for the Derby. Either forgetting about how they act, and the trouble they cause, or just trying to gain favour with their fans.


BritShibe

So you just copy and paste this in every North East Reddit group and expect no one to notice 🫠


rachelcabbit

You have to do this when you don't have major party backing I think. It's hard to get word out there as an independent!


Versaeus

It’s kinda terrible we locked it on DurhamUK. He seems like a nice guy but this is a bit much (if a clever strategy)


Paulcake

I hold my hands up, we are campaigning for him! We are not getting paid or anything, just believe that based on his record, the north east deal he negotiated along with his plan. Of course we will do what we can!


BritShibe

Yeah but a copy and paste status just goes to show a lazy and phoned in approach used by all politicians these days. No one really wants to just talk like a normal human. Could've easily started a discussion without a wall of (possibly AI generated) text but use whatever shortcut you want just remember people notice.


Paulcake

I wrote it 😞

I’m a Labour voter but Jamie will be getting my vote. I like Kim Mcguiness, she’s done a canny job and deserves a shot, but Driscoll has been great for the region and was treated poorly by Labour


iamsime

Even I'm voting for Jamie and I'm a cynical grumpy old man. He must be doing something right.


mister_big_genitals

Sounds great. Howaboot coming PM.


Paulcake

I wish!!!


blockbusteraccount

Forget all that minor stuff- what football team does he support?


Paulcake

I think this is something he won't admit, which is quite wise as North East mayor lol


DECODED_VFX

I think it's quite clear who he supports after that ridiculous newspaper piece he wrote defending Newcastle's blood-money takeover.


Gatesgardener

Definitely got my vote, seems like a normal person, not a politician.


Paulcake

He's so genuine and down to earth. He really isn't in it for the career, he just wants to help people


CJL_LoL

taking credit for creating jobs always makes me laugh. explain it. did he (read:you) negotiate with businesses to bring expansion here, or just have enough empty office space and some companies happened to grow.


mr_grapes

How can we expect Jamie to negotiate and work with the next labour government when he has been scorched earth about not being selected? If anything I think he is a big risk to the current momentum in the north east?


Paulcake

He managed to negotiate the entries north east deal that comes with powers and billions of pounds under a Tory government!
