Labour know hardly anyone has ever heard of Natalie Elphicke and that even fewer will bother to scour her voting record (and those who do probably already have their voting preference locked in), most won't register this story at all but some will vaguely fit it into a narrative of someone else turning away from the Tories to Labour and that is a pattern worth following.
To think Labour would turn down this opportunity because a few blowhards on the internet don't like her is comically deluded.
Personally, I understand all of that. The basic gist of what you say is that most people are thick and don't know what's going on.
I'm coming at it from the point that it is pathetic and contradictory. To believe I'm going to change my opinion on that because an Internet snake oil salesman has illusions of grandeur is equally as comically deluded.
