Goatboy Posted 16 December, 2016 Share Posted 16 December, 2016 So while you busy yourself making puerile comments, your shining hero Corbyn remains silent while Assad's murderers go door-to-door massacring men, women and children in East Aleppo. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-38301629 This is what Corbyn's allies on today's Morning Star call, with criminal cynicism, the 'liberation of Aleppo'. Do you agree with this? Do you agree with the conspiracy theory that the White Helmets are western stooges and the people they rescue merely crisis actors? Will you agree with the White Helmets' appeal: For years, our humanitarian volunteers have worked to save the lives of our people in Aleppo: operating in underground hospitals, rescuing entire families buried under the rubble and risking our lives to document what the daily war crimes committed by Assad regime [sic] and its ally Russia. We can do no more. We can't believe the world's most powerful countries can't get 100,000 civilians to safety that is 4 KM away! In short, are you interested in politics at all, or merely in being a brainless gimp in a 'personality' cult? Do you have evidence for this? https://youtu.be/c8JppJyVxYU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 14 January, 2017 Share Posted 14 January, 2017 Won't the Tories and UKIP split the 'non labour' vote though? (much as they did in 2015) Tactical voting should work in UKIPs favour. I reckon this is set up for Nuttall. The only doubt that he may have is the seat disappears after the boundary review. May depend on whether the adjacent seats have Remain candidates in them. If they do, I reckon he'll go for it because he can then take on a Remainer in the GE , if not, he may duck the challenge . Personally I'd go with Nigel until the seat disappears, he can then have a well earned spell in the Lords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John B Posted 26 February, 2017 Share Posted 26 February, 2017 Voted Labour every election but can't vote for them with the current idiot in charge. I dont blame you but it just means that the Tories get in is that what people want. May is continuing to ignore warnings of an unprecedented funding crisis in the NHS that is leaving no capacity to undertake the medium-term reform needed to make the health service sustainable. She has presided over cuts to social care funding that mean a quarter fewer older people are getting state support with their care needs. Schools in some areas are facing real-term cuts of up to 17% in their pupil funding in the run up to 2020, while the government is expending political capital on defending its planned expansion of grammar schools, which evidence shows will worsen, not improve, social mobility. In prisons, a lack of sentencing reform and staff cuts have left prisons dangerously overcrowded and understaffed. The government is cutting funding for back-to-work support for the long-term unemployed, including the disabled, by a staggering three-quarters from March. Reforms to local government funding mean councils in poorer areas have had to cut back local services 10 times as much as in more affluent areas. And Philip Hammond has enthusiastically embraced the Osbornomics of his predecessor, continuing to provide tax cuts for big businesses and more affluent families, while cutting tax credit support for low-income working families and increasing business rates for many high-street small businesses. Labour’s opposition in absentia is clearing the decks for May to firmly pitch herself on Labour’s territory, by claiming the Conservatives are now the party that represents ordinary working people. She is facing little scrutiny over the fact that this rhetoric is undermined by much of what her government is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonraker Posted 27 February, 2017 Share Posted 27 February, 2017 Putting aside political leanings and whether you are Labour, Conservative, LD, Green or anything else, Jeremy Corbyn is a disaster for UK democracy. He has no leadership qualities, he has no interest in what people actually think it is all about his outdated version of socialism. He claims they need to do better in getting the (his) message across, Jeremy that is not the issue apart from your myopic devotees in the party the majority of the electorate do understand your message and they don't like it or want what it offers. We are living through a very sad time for our democracy where polar opposites are dominating the political dialogue and to many lily livered elected politicians are failing to stand up to the extremes. If people thought they were being ignored and left behind by politicians before, they are going to be doubly dissapointed if the leaders of the two largest parties continue down the roads they are currently on.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 9 June, 2017 Share Posted 9 June, 2017 This is what John Curtice wrote in the Guardian There is a risk that, because the election result is being greeted through the prism of the widespread expectation that Labour would lose badly, it is forgotten that not only did Labour lose, but it did so almost as badly as in 2010, when Gordon Brown’s administration was ejected from power. Corbyn might have succeeded in persuading many voters that he was an effective party leader after all, but he has still not demonstrated that he can persuade enough to do so to be able to take his party to victory.

Weird that, because by exactly the same logic May is more popular than Mrs Thatcher so those Tories must be dancing in the streets for having such a successful and wildly popular leader. Corbynite dins will be celebrating this pointless "victory" for a long time, in exactly the same way the skates celebrate their David Norris day "victory" over us.
