Re: Labour Watch
I'm less fussed about whether a leftist candidate gets to stand as candidate for Labour. If they failed to organise themselves properly and take control when they had the chance, then that's on them. And maybe it's best for all involved that everyone knows where they stand (or not). What is more of ...

Can you imagine how incompetent you have to be to take over 12 months to investigate a 250 word letter?
And you have to deduct all the Fridays from those 12 months too, as nobody will have read their emails.

Re: Labour Watch
Even I feel that Labour have been mean to her here. Abbott may be a doddery old race-baiting, identity-driven politician, but her perspective is more understandable given her experiences. God knows, she's been the target of vile racist and sexist abuse over the decades. Lesser men and women would ha...

Re: Israel
I can confirm that the anarchists and various leftist groups that occupy the Omonoia neighbourhood of Athens are fully kitted out in the keffiyeh. There are Palestinian flags flying from the lampposts. I'm showing my solidarity by gazing down upon the great unwashed from a rooftop cocktail bar, and ...

Re: Election Watch
Out if the top seven candidates from the first round of the 2019 Tory leadership contest, only one - Jeremy Hunt - is now standing to be a Tory MP.
At this rate it wouldn't surprise me if Sunak also declared that he was standing down.

In the past 14 years, he has been one of, if not the, most effective ministers at getting legislation through Parliament. All that snorting had an effect afterall.

Re: Election Watch
Er, given the toxicity of the whole Brexit debate and the mess Labour got itself into on that issue in 2019 (for which Starmer is also to blame - LOL), convincing any of those Tory Leave voters for them is a success.

Re: Election Watch
Those same Leave voters are now less likely to vote Tory, and to vote Labour (and Reform UK) instead. T Nah mate. You can't add (and Reform) in brackets when the Tory Leave voters are piling into there rather than Labour by 2:1. I'm not trying anything here. Tory Leave voters are clearly going to b...

That was a targeted campaign though, wasn't it? I mean that generally, younger people (who will make up the bulk of that student demographic) are relatively absent at elections.Proposition Joe wrote: ↑Fri May 24, 2024 2:19 pm Students don't vote? Weren't they responsible for turfing Clegg out?
