As the trees (apple, quince, plum, citrus, fig) age, and the brambles are shaded out, hoofed animals come to eat fallen fruit, and the mature trees (7 plus years old) are sufficiently hardy to withstand browsing.

Just think about what Android would have been if it was not for iPhone – a better blackberry? – Jack Levin • I think if you asked people “what’s the biggest problem in your life?” They’d say, “I just don’t have time for anything!” And at our fingertips, if it isn’t e-mail, it’s our Blackberry, and it’s our iPods and telephones – we never stop.

Children are nostalgic for the ‘good old days’ when parents used to read to them without the cell phone by their side or watch football games or Disney movies without having the BlackBerry handy. – Sherry Turkle • It took 10 years to go from building the initial Smartphone to reaching the mass market. BlackBerry came out in 2003 and it didn’t get to about a billion units until 2013. So I can’t imagine it would be much faster for VR. – Mark Zuckerberg • I’ve been thinking of trying my hand at rap. I’ve been recording snippets on my BlackBerry. – Rufus Wainwright • I’ve just been away for a week, and I dropped my BlackBerry in the sea while I was messing around with the kids, so no one can reach me.

People checking their BlackBerry over dinner is not the measure of productivity. – Tim Ferriss • There are a couple of different types of food I eat a lot.

I would probably start with collard greens and candied baby carrots and then have some biscuits and white gravy – and for dessert, probably blackberry cobbler. – Megan Fox • There is a newly coined word in the English language for the moment when the person we’re with whips out their BlackBerry or answers that cell phone, and all of a sudden we don’t exist.

I keep a constant diary of where I’m at and why I’m there. – Kevin O’Leary • Writing is more than just the making of a series of comprehensible statements: it is the gathering in of connotations; the harvesting of them, like blackberries in a good season, ripe and heavy, snatched from among the thorns of logic. – Fay Weldon • You know, you just know, that after the president goes out there and announces he wants to make community college free for all Americans – as though anything government does is ‘free’ – or is unilaterally and unconstitutionally legalizing millions of undocumented immigrants, he comes back to the offices, pulls out the presidential BlackBerry, and gleefully follows along as the Right goes completely ape over these wild policy decisions. – John Podhoretz • You’ve seen [Doanld Trump] come out with a lot more specifics.

Tories overturn Labour majority to win Copeland byelection

Pressure on Jeremy Corbyns leadership increases after Trudy Harrison secures Cumbria constituency that Labour had dominated since 1924

Jeremy Corbyn is under further pressure after a humiliating byelection defeat at the hands of the Conservative party in Copeland, a heartland seat dominated by Labour since 1924.

Gillian Troughton, the Labour candidate, was defeated by the Conservatives Trudy Harrison, marking the first time a governing party has taken a seat from another party in a byelection in 35 years.

The Conservatives took 13,748 votes to Labours 11,601 after a turnout of 51%. The Lib Dem candidate, Rebecca Hanson, came third with 2,252 votes.

Troughton left the count at Cleveland Sports Centre within minutes of the dramatic result being announced and without making a concession speech. She was heckled by a passerby who shouted Sack Corbyn! as she was rushed into a waiting car.

Harrison, a political novice, said in her victory speech: What has happened here tonight is a truly historic event. Youd have to go back more than a century to find an example of a governing party taking a seat from the opposition party in an election like this.

Weve had Labour here for more than 80 years but its been very clear talking to people throughout this campaign that Jeremy Corbyn doesnt represent them.

They want a party which is on the side of ordinary working people, which will respect the way we voted in the referendum, and which will build a country which represents everyone. Thats why they voted for me tonight.

!function(){"use strict";var t=document.createElement("script");t.src="http://ift.tt/2lycOQ6",document.body.appendChild(t)}(); //# sourceMappingURL=main.js.map function resize(){window.frameElement.height=document.body.offsetHeight}window.addEventListener("resize",resize);resize(); “>

Labour was battling to save a slim 2,564 majority left by Jamie Reed, an outspoken Corbyn critic who quit to take a job at the local Sellafield nuclear decommissioning plant.

Critics of the Labour leader will claim that his perceived hostility to nuclear was key to the defeat. The industry employs more than 10,000 people in the west Cumbrian constituency.

Tory campaigners made much of an ITV Borders television interview by Corbyn at the end of January in which he failed four times to say he supported Moorside, a multi-billion pound nuclear plant planned to be built next to Sellafield.

Labours campaign focused heavily on Tory-backed plans to close the maternity unit at the new West Cumberland hospital, meaning the nearest service will be an hour-long drive away in Carlisle.

Troughton, a borough councillor, retired doctor and St John ambulance driver who voted against Corbyn in the last leadership contest, consistently claimed the hospital was the number one issue on the doorstep.

February 24, 2017

Speaking after the result, Andrew Gwynne, the Labour MP for Denton and Reddish who ran Troughtons campaign, conceded that the party struggled to convince voters that it backs nuclear power.

This has been one of the most polarised campaigns that Ive ever known, centred on two issues about the worries people have about the downgrade to West Cumberland hospital, he said.

With Gillian Troughton we had a superb candidate who put the NHS at the heart of the campaign and really did work hard on the ground to get the message out that we wanted to save those services.

Gwynne declined to answer whether Corbyn was to blame and said the Tories threw all kinds of stuff at us on the nuclear issue and that clearly resonated with some people.

He added: The other issue was nuclear and we struggled to convince people that the Labour party is and remains a pro-civil nuclear party committed to the Sellafield decommissioning site, but also committed very much to the new power plant at Moorside as well.

Harrison, a former Sellafield worker, told voters she was best placed to lobby ministers on the hospital and already had commitments for a government inquiry.

She said road upgrades, a constant complaint by Copeland voters, would be announced by the transport secretary, Chris Grayling, after the byelection. Fiona Mills, the Ukip candidate, was thought to be trailing as voters moved to the Conservatives.

The byelection took an ugly twist earlier on Thursday when a Conservative MP said he had called police over abusive social media messages about his stillborn son.

Will Quince, the MP for Colchester, received the stream of offensive tweets after speaking out in the row over the proposed cuts to maternity services in Copeland. The MP had earlier condemned a Labour leaflet warning that mothers and babies would die if wards were cut at the West Cumberland hospital.

The MP, who has campaigned on maternity issues since his son Robert was stillborn in 2014, branded the claim simply disgusting.

Mike Starkie, the independent elected mayor of Copeland, said he had encountered many Labour voters planning to back Harrison in the hope it would force Corbyn out as leader.

I dont think you can blame the candidate for the loss. I think the candidate equipped herself well through the whole campaign but there is an anti-Corbyn feeling among Labour supporters in Copeland – thats a fact, he said.

Its not all down to nuclear. I just dont think Jeremy Corbyns particularly popular with Labour-supporting people.

Starkie added: Its quite a historic night. I thought it was going to be a lot closer than what it was. The margin of victory has surprised everybody.

One of the real positives of this byelection campaign is weve had more high-profile politicians here than we have for the whole of the last century. People are more aware of what the issues are here and what needs addressing.
