If £115k covers the security guard and car, I wouldn't begrudge it but I rather think that this is free loading money 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a selection process. That fact she wasn't selected simply means that someone else was. The whole "I was blocked from standing because I liked a tweet by Nicola Sturgeon" narrative is bonkers. This is like someone being interviewed for a job, not getting it and flinging toys out the pram. The fact is we don't know why someone else was chosen over her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know the circumstances of this but if you think the selection process is quite as simple or straight forward you are really naive. One of the reasons Labour has had a bunch of absolute cloggers over the years is because of the competing interests that are often based on negative rather than positive reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You refute this and yet the leader of the Labour party agress. So which is it? Is Keir right to say the British Labour party and the Consertvative and Unionist party almost idenitcal when it comes to immigration? or Are you right and Keir either doesn't know his own policy position as well as you or is just bullshitting for effect and to gain the votes of racsts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, in one policy area (immigration) Labour appears to be heading in a Tory direction, therefore they are the same/indistinguishable from the Tories.=critical thinking Meanwhile the SNP propose a term of austerity as do the Tories, but this= completely different from the Tories. Again=critical thinking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
