Corbyn could offer an anti-austerity platform. You know, since the UN has announced it's a breach of human rights and it's kind of what he's always been saying.Frogfingers posted:Go watch The Lion in Winter. It will tell you everything you need to know about everyone involved in UK politics then, now and forever. The Lion in Winter is a fantastic film. I really should rewatch it.

Corbyn can win because the Tories have most likely destroyed the U.K. in an inter-party spat. He needs to get rid of the assholes, though.

He and McDonnell are already doing that but the media refuses to cover it because it doesn't fit with Overlord Murdoch's plan.

Hoops posted:It doesn't count any more, it's not the story. Corbyn personally doesn't give a gently caress about "the story", but all his MPs do. Whilst I disagree he's exceeded anything since his leadership election win, I think he will win the leadership contest and then all the PLP have no choice but to back down, because that's how their world works. What makes you think a second time would make any difference when the first one persuaded them of nothing more than the efficacy of spending 9 months doing nothing but briefing against him and planning an ineffectual coup that only served to damage their party and their country at the worst loving possible time?

Yeah, you kind of do get the impression that currently British politicians are freaked out because you can't just go through the motions and resign (to a cushy sinecure/consulting "job") at the appropriate time anymore since the country is really, actually on fire.

If the membership elects him twice surely they'll have to admit defeat, right? At least they could switch to plotting in secret and skulking in the shadows rather than openly and brazenly sabotaging the poor git.

tooterfish posted:Leeds was actually experiencing a pretty huge expansion of its tech sector. All kinds of good things would've come off the back of that (well paid nerds need places to eat their soylent and buy warhams and anime sex dolls). Ah, poo poo. Although what kind of tech? Even in worse case scenarios Brexit seems to have no long-term negative effects on poo poo like aerospace engineering and the computer technologies that go with that.

The best thing for The Northern Powerhouse would be the election of visible, powerful mayors of Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Newcastle, to do exactly what Sturgeon does every day. Potentially only Manchester to start with otherwise they'll crowd each other out. It'll accelerate the gently caress out of federalism as they'll have to be essentially be like US state governors, but if Andy Burnham can do it and be on TV regularly then that could potentially make a big difference. Always a suit, never ever ever in those big medal things that mayors wear.

Apparently Cameron told the other 27 at the EU summit that any deal with the U.K. had to include controls on migration. I'm mildly amused (and stunned) that he thinks he has any ability to set out the terms, and that free movement might be negotiable.

Pissflaps posted:A lot do. And it's the duty of the Labour party to ruin that myth by pointing out that all of the issues they blame on immigration are the fault of successive governments loving them over. Or we could get rid of Corbyn, have this "Progressive end to free movement" and watch as fascism rises unabated.

What else are they gonna do- give up and go home? They have nothing left but a last minute, pointless and pretty much hopeless gamble, and they must play it now. It can be seen with them using PR firms to try and get smears in despite the PR fuckwads being recognisable, identifiable and shareable on social media- the same social media that originally got a whole bunch of people to drop the cost of the cheapest pint anywhere within pissing distance of London on corbyn in the first place.

DesperateDan posted:What else are they gonna do- give up and go home? The thing they could arguably do would be to effectively secede from Corbyn, form a new party with their own leadership, and argue that they should keep the Short money and Union contributions as the opposition. Whether this would be plausible I have NO idea but it sounds worryingly possible.
