Granny Danger Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 There must be a growing number of Corbyn supporters who are growing restless at his ineptitude. Maybe they would be more vocal of it didn’t mean appearing to side with Tony Warcriminal Blair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocketman Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 6 minutes ago, beefybake said: I was listening to BBC R4 this morning. They interviewed Lidington... , the May ally. About half way in, I realised that what I was hearing wasn't actually an argument for or against anything. What popped into my mind was that it was ... 'articulate babble'. The political equivalent of headless chicken mode. I find that any statement by a politician that follows "look....." or "I want to be perfectly clear here, and this is important........" all descends into waffle and pointless jargon. The mere fact of implying firmness and clarity at the start of the sentence is seemingly enough to convince the media and the electorate that a clear, rationale point has been made when in fact it has been nothing of the sort. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't call yourself Scottish if you said you didn't want Scotland to be a country. What about people who voted for independence and then to leave the EU? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingRocketMan II, you need to understand ... Whenever a politician says "clearly" that means it is not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Maybe it’s time for the SNP to push the issue of a no confidence vote. Try to secure a parliamentary debate and force Corbyn’s hand. Even if they are unsuccessful (as they would likely be) it would force Labour to finally address the second referendum option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
