His visit to the up north? I am Southern bred and reliably informed that I sound like the bastard child of Mr Tumble and Will from The Inbetweeners, but even I know how to abbreviate 'the' properly. Also I went home ill from work and feel much better now that I'm playing videogames in bed, so I declare that just being in proximity to work is bad for your health.

Farage is doing his usual bit up in Hull. making GBS threads on Labour for wanting to remain and the Tories for claiming they can reduce immigration.

gh0stpinballa posted:so the thing that people get accused of being tankies for supporting was actually necessary to end a pogrom? Well a lot of the violence and radicalisation on the protester side came as a reaction to the soviet invasion. And more relevantly it was most definitely not a pogrom in the anti-jewish sense.

brian posted:elections involve electioneering and the SNP directly contest most of their seats against labour threats, it means nothing I always wonder why Labour don't simply say "we share many of the concerns of the SNP: however we don't believe independence is the best way to address those concerns. While this disastrous Tory government has driven many Scottish people to demanding independence, with Labour many of the key reasons for independence would be addressed without breaking up the Union." I am the most English person in what feels like the whole South-East though, so I might be missing something here.

Failed Imagineer posted:Nationalist party leader agitating for nationalist referendum More like nationalist party leader undermining the only party who could possibly grant that referendum for short-term political advantage. Re. Tankie- and Hungary-chat, I think that in the specific case of Hungary '56 we need to keep a bit of context in mind, which is that Hungary enthusiastically participated in a literal war of extermination against the USSR just a little more than a decade before the uprising. And imo if you try to genocide someone and your intended victims end up kicking your rear end, they do have a pretty strong justification for taking all the necessary actions to ensure that you'll never be in a position to have another go at them. So I'm not super sure if I actually can fault the Soviets for that one. Like, if we were to be consistent here, then should we also condemn the allies for occupying Germany after the war? Nobody seems to be called a tankie for supporting that. Now if you supported sending the tanks into Czechoslovakia though, then yeah you're a tankie.

While the Tories aren't exactly accurate to say that Labour want indyref, Labour needing the SNP's numbers is a very real possibility coming out of this election, and goodness knows the #1 thing the SNP will absolutely require of any coalition partner will be indyref 2.

trypsin posted:<delurk>Victoria Prentis has a ~13k Majority in Banbury, but that's down from 18k in 2015, the Labour candidate Suzette Watson is really nice and (as a first timer to this) there seems to be good energy and positivity in the campaign despite the uphill battle. Depends where you live but North Oxfordshire villages in the west of Banbury constituency like Hook Norton might be really quite close to you. There are some details on mylabour or I have PMs if you're interested...</delurk> mediadave if you go campaigning in Hook Norton will you pick up some Old Hooky from the brewery and send it to me in Leeds?

Which is probably why Corbyn is pushing back on it happening before 2022, presumably so that Labour get time to make life better before that referendum.

Labour policy on this has been clear since McDonnell spoke - Labour will accept a mandate for a second referendum if the SNP win Holyrood again in 2021, and Labour would allow it as long as they've had time to pass reforms that benefit Scotland and see what a non-antagonist government south of the border can give them.
