He did say that and weirdly it didn’t kill the issue.

That’s true. I think the media will savage whoever’s in charge of Labour unless they anoint whoever the right wing press decide is amenable to them which defeats the point entirely . Ed Miliband showed that. I personally would’ve probably preferred McDonnell as he’s probably cleverer and more combative, if more likely to inspire revulsion, than Corbyn is. At the same time I dunno how powerful the press really is anymore though. Labour still polled 40% and independence hit 45% despite both having the press ranged against it. The left, in the UK at least, seem to have social media locked down much better than traditional print media and the Tory establishment. Reaching younger voters and people that don’t vote could end up being where the parties need to go and it’s Labour, or Yes up here, that are doing that better as it stands.

Corbyn is literally proposing capitalism that runs hand in hand with decent social policies. None of it is that radical despite the collective shitting itself of the press.

Ooft. Dishing out a telt for once.

idk if this is a joke but I sincerely agree with this.

History will rehabilitate them as they always do. Even many Democrats and liberals in general have a vested interest in preserving the two party system in America. That’s how every single Never Trump Republican has a column for a national newspaper.

Not the best week for a bunch of Scottish MSPs to go and “build bridges” with Israel.

I don’t know how it affects the discourse but Twitter was suspending people for having names that were making fun of Elon Musk.

Richard Spencer said he was unwilling to attend rallies after being hooked by that Antifa guy at Trump’s inauguration. It’s probably a mixture of both.

That’s apt as Edinburgh isn’t really a part of Scotland.

As an ardent Remainer this makes me so glad we voted to leave.

If only Hamas could hire as good PR firms as the IDF have they’d be rehabilitated in weeks.

Haaretz acknowledges that Israel are deliberately targeting civilian population centres.

Was it ayrmad that said Eddie Izzard dressed like a woman deliberately to get abuse from SNP voters?

Is Rab's passive aggressive support for Carragher legit or is it just attention seeking?

Jim Murphy came out of semi-retirement to prevent a Jewish Labour member from taking a position on the NEC. Utter, utter scum whose authentocratic attempt at leading Scottish Labour made Owen Smith look like a headliner for the Durham Miner’s Gala.

Thank god the Barclays is back so I can pretending to give a shit about the Championship.

Wonder if Baxter will keep that avi if John McDonnell follows through on his desire to form a new Anti-Nazi League.

Yup it’s no coincidence IMO.

Legitimately thought his name was “Count Dankula” at this point.

They’re competing to win the hearts and minds of the dozen people with worms in their brains that read this forum.

Making him the kayfabe golden boy would work as well tbf.

Another man that never graduated from university. Guess we can ignore his contributions in favour of, eh, Toby Young.

Academic snobbery will surely win everyone over to the sensible authentocrats in the centre.

He’s an existential threat to Jewish life if you are one of the hawkish ghouls that equate Judaism with Israel. I think it was David Frum who claimed Bin Salman was a better friend to Jewish people than Corbyn because of his support for Israel. Never mind he doesn’t allow Jewish people in his country to practice their faith openly, that isn’t important.
