But the press as ever is very much pointing out every single left wing tiff as movement ending.

I take your point about that. The press isn't going to help especially with Corbyn. But "tiff"? Didn't Sultana start legal proceedings against her own party? Do you go straight to chatting with your lawyers if someone disagrees with you at work? I dunno, sounds like a recipe for disaster. At least from the point of view of those two personalities. For sure the movement and party can survive but I'd be surprised of both of them belong to the party at the next election.

I don't think there is a credible alternative. I might be wrong. But the fiasco around the nascent Your Party shows exactly that. This happens time and time again. Lefty leaning parties descend into factionalism and then apathy. I'm not sure this time it's going to be any different.

Meanwhile buggers like ukip or reform or Tommy "I'm a massive cunt" Robinson-Crusoe capitalise on this and gain support and, shockingly, votes.

I don't know what the answer is. Maybe this current Labour government to grow a spine and force through PR voting before leaving office?

This is why so much of the left has given up on labour

Why haven't a credible alternative risen up and taken Labour's place do you think? Have the left given up on Labour.... or have the left just given up? 😕

It's hilarious that Monty Python made this joke about the Left eating the Left about 50 / 60 years ago and it's still relevant!

Imagine how much could have been achieved if they weren't such fucking idiots? 😆

Unfortunately they're the royal family and it would upset a lot of people if they were sent away.

They need to think of an alternative way to reach their racist voters.

 

Her case was thrust into doubt late on Thursday when the conveyancing firm - Verrico & Associates - said it did not provide advice and had been made "scapegoats" in the political row.

Its managing director, Joanna Verrico, told The Daily Telegraph while it had acted for Ms Rayner when she bought the property, no tax or trust advice was provided.

 

I don't know what people are so upset about. She only failed to pay a little bit of tax. Hundreds of bankers and multinationals so the same and nobody says anything.

Oh wait... 😅

 

The "mayor" in charge at the time.... Marvin Reese. Now rewarded with a cushy seat in the house of lords. You can't make this shit up.

Why don't these MPs force a private members bill or something and get a vote in the commons? Force Keith to whip his MPs against it and take the political fall out of he does.

The government isn't going to shit until it's embarrassed into.

 

Good. I'm sick and tired of.... checks notes.... 12 year old girls wanting to feel proud about being British. FFS this is getting out of hand 😜.
