He hasn't got a racist bone in his body. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry guys I was aware of this it was tongue in cheek. He was Labour leader when she last stood for election. If she thought he wasn’t fit to be PM she could have reused to stand then. If she genuinely had principles that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This from the Guardian : Quote A fourth woman, Louise Ellman, who is Jewish and the MP for Liverpool Riverside, has been called on by her local party to resign. However, motions requesting that she stand down were banned by Labour’s regional office on Monday after it emerged the debate on her future was tabled for the start of Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year in Judaism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The Labour MPs who support Johnson’s deal wont last long. Regardless of Corbyn’s views or the Labour NEC view I’d imagine the grass roots members in these constituencies will be livid at the thought of their MP handing the Tories a victory of this magnitude. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crùbag Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) Ha! Useless bloody Labour saying Corbyn gets a train to Orkney... Quote That revelation comes from Scottish Labour Party activist Karie Murphy, Corbyn’s former chief of staff. According to Sunday Times journalist Gabriel Pogrund, she told a town hall meeting of Labour staff: “Anyone who knows Jeremy knows he loves to go on the train to obscure places like the South West or Orkney." https://www.thenational.scot/news/17991295.jeremy-corbyn-loves-visit-obscure-place-orkney-train/ Edited October 25, 2019 by Crùbag 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure why they are so desperate to have her as Labour leader but there must be a reason. Fortunately it’s not going to happen. She's a walking rent-a-gob who's never shy of providing a soundbite or two. Ideal media-fodder, hence why they're in love with her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem for the Guardian is that they define themsleves as a liberal publication. Yet the LD's are obviously, even to a blind person, a bunch of no account chancers who've clambered on to Brexit/Remain as their only hope of any kind of route to influence. However, the Guardian can't bring itself to support someone like Corbyn, who has actually maintained his democratic principles all the way through. And with policies that a large part of the electorate actually want. Edited October 26, 2019 by beefybake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with policies that a large part of the electorate actually want. The article merely points out the fact that it's astonishing that the worst government in UK history is miles ahead in the polls of the worst opposition in UK history. A GE in the next few months will see Labour trounced, of that there's little doubt. And that is shameful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just appears that way due to the neoliberal status quo that has existed between the two main parties since the 90s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SNP have a far more “hard left” position on nuclear weapons and that hasn’t hampered us electorally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
