Jose posted:I think the only real opportunity he had to sort it was to make open selections pass at conference and he decided not to. Don't think a proper purge was doable otherwise. Labour is now facing a legal challenge as a result of expelling Corbyn for example he had motherfuckers bringing the party into disrepute all the time so there definitely were ways to do it, but corbyn didn't want to because he was ultimately too much of a believer in the system to go ahead and do what needed to be done

She was correct though, tory islamophobia is on a completely diff political scale from Corbyns antisemitism in just about every regard

Ghost Leviathan posted:Wasn't it the Arizona party that got taken over by progressives and caused all the centrists to chuck the biggest wobbly and try to burn down the whole thing? Nevada, and the "takeover" consisted of the Dem leadership that is largely DSA-aligned in the county where almost all the Dems live taking over the statehouse via a very normal election. Lots of choice meltdowns about it, especially from insane Bernie hater Jon Ralston, but behind the scenes machinations were mostly the normal stuff of the old guard tearing out whatever copper they could in their time left to bolster their folks who are going to lose support under the socialists

Ghost Leviathan posted:Wasn't it the Arizona party that got taken over by progressives and caused all the centrists to chuck the biggest wobbly and try to burn down the whole thing? it was nevada, which is both 1) a state whose dem party has been for decades a machine controlled by retired senator harry reid and 2) a very hispanic state that bernie won overwhelmingly in the primaries largely due to being the overwhelming favorite of minorities earlier this year the bernie-aligned slate for state party leadership won the election decisively so the outgoing reid-aligned establishment party leadership transferred all the money in the state party treasury to bank accounts personally controlled by them, and every single state party staffer quit. it was an effort to destroy the official party apparatus as much as possible rather than let it fall into the wrong hands e: the biggest way that the reid machine tried to put their thumbs on the scale against bernie during the primary that i can remember is that the dem party pushed messaging down through the political arms of the huge unions that represent vegas casino staffers that single payer would be bad for them because it would take away their union-negotiated employer healthcare plans Cerebral Bore posted:agreed, corbyn should have purged the labour right the first opportunity he got, but unfortunately he didn't

I have a odd feeling that when the dust settles in 50 years we are going to find out that Carrie is the cleverest one out of the lot of them (low bar low bar). Using the dog distracted from the hand shaking gently caress up, and if the only thing they have on him is that she badly decorated a flat using other people’s money, when we know billions were given away to Tory mates, then someone has been shielding him well

Cummings also defending Sunak somewhat saying that it was Boris that delayed the lockdowns for economic reasons and not Rishi. Sunak is definitely going to run for PM. He comes out of this looking great for saving people's livlihoods with the furlough scheme and for wanting to enter lockdown sooner.

It'll be interesting to see where that discussion goes, but Sunak was noteable for being one of the few that Cummings didn't throw under the bus so far.

worth remembering that one of the reasons the government/establishment were incapable of handling this is because the coalition government completely gutted the civil service. it only started to get back to numbers even remotely close to what it was before the coalition because of brexit
