It's very odd that he talks about Jeremy Corbyn 'screaming' puerile slogans. Does he actually know who Jeremy Corbyn is?

Lol wtf Yes, I think that if you hold a belief and stand for office you should put forward that belief because that's how political discourse is shaped and if you alter your positions in order to fit public perception you undermine the whole point of democracy and everything becomes a grey mush of centrist poo poo. Losing FPTP would be a good step towards ending this attitude! Also loving the patronising ad homs throughout. I hope this gent is purged in the Corbyn reforms.

tdrules posted:lol at that shop assistant from Bedford saying that we shouldn't tax rich people because she could be one if she put her mind to it. Oh God I'm so ashamed of my hometown. One time I accidentally walked into a Labour media appearance with my ex-MP (and still current candidate) doing a speech with Ed Balls. I'd previously given him grief over Labour's rightward shift and so his advisors made sure that I was whisked away from him before the cameras could catch me with him.

Which is funny because if you see him in interview he seems much more serious and less glib in his thoughts and answers then almost any other politician.

Alertrelic posted:http://wire.novaramedia.com/2015/07/curb-your-corbynthusiasm-5-thoughts-on-the-politics-of-corbynism/ Thanks, really interesting. From the original interview thoughts and the article linked, I'd be interested to hear the thread's thoughts on these points: Economy: quote:7. He hasn’t got a strategy to deal with the inevitable consequences of a social democratic government. Local government: quote:4. Labour councils are still a problem. Are Labour councils particularly corrupt compared to the rest? There's quite a comedy list right here for a single borough. Prince John fucked around with this message at 13:25 on Jul 31, 2015 |
