I was at North Sea Jazz over the weekend. Great venue in a great city, over 200 acts, top notch food and drink, acres of gorgeous Dutch girls and, best of all, no neds for hundreds of miles.

I saw Janelle Monae last night. The sound of 10,000 Dutch people applauding her saying Trump must be impeached was most gratifying.

Those who aren't enjoying the "relative wealth" in "this part of the world", seeing as it's never has been a better time to be alive here, as per Oaksofts post.
So how do you propose we "mend the roof"?

That's a hell of an extrapolation from Oaksoft v2.0s post and mine, to that.

Britain created iraq after WW1. Along with America we’ve been fucking them and Iran over since then pretty much.
One minute Rumsfeld is shaking hands with Saddam the next he’s calling for him to be removed. They linked up 9/11 to Iraq through a lie and hundreds of thousands of innocent people died because of that. Meanwhile Saudi Arabia can do what they want because they play ball with us.
I can only recall Robin Cook standing up and really questioning foreign policy in parliament. You would think it would be an open goal for opposition politicians yet they sit quiet. I’m not saying Saddam was a great person but we put him there and supported him for years.
Is that a yes?

Do you really think we went there to ‘help them’?
Oh. Did we go in to harm them?

You seem easily confused.
Even if a labour government negotiated a deal with a customs union etc, they can still put it back to the people for comfirmation that they still want to Brexit.
It wouldn't be the first time a government called a referendum on their own plan and didn't back it. Cameron called 2 referendums on Brexit and on Alternate Vote and campaigned for the status quo both times.
What Brexit plan did Cameron have and fail to back?

Labour’s latest position on Brexit is far from perfect but it’s a big step in the right direction.
Their position on Brexit is weak, lily-livered and a complete and utter embarrassment. They've had a century and a bit of being a serious political party but they're now an unlamented irrelevance.

Aren't we presiding over the longest period of wage stagnation since the Napoleonic Wars? The onset of neoliberalism has saw inequality shoot up and undo much of the progress we made in the post war period as the welfare state dies by a thousand cuts.

It matters in that it transfers wealth to the richest. So you have the double whammy of the government having less to spend on services and the richest having extra money to buy assets they can use as a source of rent.
Until MMT is recognised we are stuck with the current nonsense monetary policy.

Blair cemented the notion that there was no alternative. Will be class when the ice sheets collapse and we can drown him in the partially underwater Hague.
44 minutes ago, Detournement said:Blair is just a Washington Consensus frontman.
Every single aspect of the Washington Consensus is crumbling. He will be remembered as part of that failure.

Nope. Still South Bucks. Still trying to decide between Amersham, Aberdeenshire and EH7 as the nicest places to live in The UK as, of course, I have no axe to grind.
Don't you think EH7 has suffered enough?

Why don't you set up a poll asking the over 60s (of Scots born and bred) how they voted last time and how they intend voting next time.
What's the relevance of being Scots born and bred? Why not ask all over 60's?

There is no doubt that Watson and Blair/Mandelson/Brown/Campbell will try to push the issue of rejoining if we do leave in this parliament to scupper any chance of a Labour victory in the next election.

Was following an orange march in Glasgow yesterday, waving my red hand of Ulster flag. Chelsea, Rangers, Linfield and St Johnstone on mine.

I remember a few years ago @perthsaints77 whilst with his daughter got called a fenien or similar from a bunch of Rangers* fans. Is there any kind of religious background to St Johnstone?

It's hugely easier for the UK to elect a non Tory government than is to effect any change within the EU. There is no logic behind the argument that Brexit has to lead to Tory policies.

There's nothing in the body of that article to justify its headline.
