UnquietDream: Jul 20, 2008; How strange that nobody sees the wonder in one another

Hope was not a mistake? Impossible...

Edit; 179 AD Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor and soft hearted monster allows the first German colonists into Roman territory. Senator Nigelius speaks out on the German menace, coming over there, colonising our lands, he later marries a German woman one. (50% truth)

What other English/Welsh parties are there with enough existing history?

Plaid might see gains in Wales but England? Respect? The Greens? A resurgent Liberal Democrats?

There's more chance of UKIP pulling hard left after having achieved their single issue goal than that.

Yeah, FPTP means something like Podemos or Syriza or the FSM is basically impossible in Britain.

I actually wonder if the secret ballot move backfired -- I suspect there's more pressure to be against Corbyn than for at that level of the party (what with Watson roaming around and all)

NO FUCK YOU DAD: Oct 23, 2008

The question now is will anyone else run? Eagle's hosed her career regardless, but if someone like Jones runs and splits the rebel vote they could both do Kendall numbers.

The unity candidate needs to be held off. Maybe Andy should go actually be the Mayor of Manchester for a few years to stay clean. As for right now? Eagle's a dud. The NHS privatisation stuff will sink Smith among wavering Corbyn supporters. Nandy?
