Well wee Nicola did, at least, retweet Ian Blackford's condemnation of Turkey, so I guess that counts as commenting, nowadays (but it's hardly the same as tapping out her own "comment".

It will become inevitable when it comes to getting a coalition together after the next election, he stuggles to run his own party and could not handle anything bigger. Of course John Landsman would have to go as well as he is one of these corrosive influences that could never work with other parties.

Ain’t that the truth. McCluskey is equally corrosive.

Another Labour MP quits over anti-semitism. Although I'm sure someone will point out that Momentum were about to deselect her and it has nothing to do with her being Jewish. Obviously.

Yes, she’s a Blairite. And yes, she’s a warmonger.

But it’s still sad to see MPs taking this stance with Jeremy because of their support of Israel’s ‘foreign policy’ and his support of Palestine and a two state solution.

Goodbye to her, and good luck in the By election I’m sure she’ll be calling....

Yes and let's forget her 55 years of dedicated service to the Labour Party. Of course we all need to be petty minded like yourself and adhere strictly to the Party Line comrade. Still, Comrade you will have plenty of time soon when Labour loose the next Election, to reflect on why very many people have left the Labour Party, like myself and unable to vote for such a narrow minded Organisation.

Very many people have left the Labour Party? I though membership numbers had gone through the roof?

We all know what this is about. And it’s not anti-semitism. And her using that as an excuse is pretty low.

I was going to post earlier, the next one along will say how well the membership numbers are doing. So Redo can you please show us some proof of actual member numbers over a period of say 2 years so we can see if the movement is up, down or stagnant. Thanks I look forwards to seeing your supported evidence.

Mr RedO time to cast off your blinkers and pay a trip to specsavers:-


Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour lost more than 45,000 members in 2018.The decline in membership in 2018 came amid dissatisfaction with Mr Corbyn’s performance as leader and the party’s equivocal stance on Brexit. That dissatisfaction has intensified in subsequent months, with Labour losing seats in both local and European elections.

Labour’s membership fell from 564,000 at the end of 2017 to 519,000 at the end of last year, according to the party’s annual accounts

My gangs bigger than your gang. My dad's bigger than your dad.

Good political debate from the Red Tory faction. For once can youse no argue the politics instead of instantly wheeling out the smears.

Ellmans local party don't like her politics and if as she contends it's about antisemitism than why did they wait 22 years?

Why don't you read what I wrote, and you will get your answers. Your slap-dash approach to boarding explains your mis-informed views. Those figures are actually the figures quoted by the Labour party.
Yes, initially after Jezza was elected as leader ( many said he was nominated as prank-well that back-fired didn't it? ); Labour membership soared, but since the last election there has been many, many resignations. Most of the Ultras in the Labour Party say that people are put off by true Socialism. I can only speak for myself, I thought the policies were great. It is his obsession with the Palestinians and anti-Semitism that I find unpalatable

If people don’t like The way Labour deal with a problem, then the party line is they should f.off.

People who have worked for the party for over half a century count for nothing. Little short of a dictatorship.
