Crowsbeak posted:I see Blair in New Statesman basically advanced that Labour should become a party dictatorship with as little input from the masses as possible and should abandon it’s actual commitment to workers and instead merely advance progressivism. Man really thinks that most Brits want to be lib Dems. this has been the core thrust of every centrist takeover of a left party since clinton and blair became the world's public faces of it. clinton did it first and he was very explicit that he was remaking the democrats so they wouldn't be beholden to "special interests," which was understood to mean minorities and labor.

So far as I can tell the only people who care enough about Keith to actively find out what he says are the good people of UKMT and 🌹 Twitter who have worked themselves up into a hate frenzy about him.

I mean “jeremy corbyn though” is a pretty apt summary of my views on Keith, but probably for the opposite reason.

if you're gonna have to choose between two apparently naive losers for labour leader its important to pick the one who spent his career covering up government crimes, particularly during this time of government negligent manslaughter

Keith isn't smart enough to understand that doing all the superficial Blair moves is pointless if you aren't a ruthless power hungry operator behind the curtain.

CoolCab posted:also, i can't imagine any reason that labour might suddenly be motivated to be slightly more reconciliatory to the vile antisemitic tyrant jeremy corbyn? how strange. Same boat as you, even after I went on and asked to be removed from the subscription list. Doesn't this break the law for data retention? When you leave they should get rid of all info they have on you? Would be funny if a class action suit against Labour begging for money finally destroy them?

Yeah, he demonstrably stands for: sending black people to jail for minor crimes and ensuring that the government and its institutions are not held accountable for any of its actions.
