I don't mind taking Ls. I mind not even loving putting up a fight. I mind caring more about an empty political party than anything else.

I mind that we had the single best chance the left has had in this God forsaken country in my lifetime and did nothing with it because despite being stabbed in the face and in the back and everywhere else Jeremy never really wrapped his head around the idea that the Labour right hate the left more than the Tories.

It sucks OP and people are right to want Labour to burn.

The problem with being good natured is that you often expect most other people to be too. Jeremy tried to appeal to people's good sides while adamantly refusing to believe that some people just don't have them.

I should go back and read more of her published stuff tbh instead of just her tweets

quote:

Her columns laid out, at once patiently and furiously, the moral bankruptcy of those seeking to delegitimize the Jeremy Corbyn and John McDonnell project. In other words, she articulated the needs and wishes of people who can’t afford not to hope, and she aimed with everything she wrote to give people — herself included — something to hope for.

Clearly, that couldn’t be allowed to happen. In mid-2019, I noticed that she hadn’t been in the paper for a while and assumed she was ill, so I texted her to see how she was. “Sacked,” she replied, typically to the point. It emerged that she had written a piece, about Labour’s then-deputy leader Tom Watson, that had so upset the paper’s gatekeepers that they decided she couldn’t be kept on. All she’d done was to point out that his boss had come within inches of winning the previous election with the kind of democratic socialist policies that people rightfully associate with, and expect from, a democratic socialist party. Wouldn’t it be better if the deputy leader of that party worked to ensure victory next time, rather than creating the conditions for its catastrophic loss?

I checked earlier and there were no new posts in this thread for 6 hours, at least. I'm glad to see someone responding from across the pond. I was scared after 'Freedom Day' that a sort of 28 Days Later situation was going on over there.

She's been queen since, like, the 1950's: you've got to be in your 80's to have even a vague memory of a time when she wasn't queen already.

It's going to be funny when she dies, 'cos Charles has always been desperate for the job but nobody likes him very much while William is more popular but he's a sulker who's never really wanted to do it in the 1st place.

I thought the whole point of purging everybody left of Thatcher to please the super rich chuds and their cleaner fish in the press was to coast on becoming a de facto pet project and social club to them lol, is there any job no matter how awful that Labour isn't just straight up bad at?
