Hobo posted:Slowly dying by watching Question Time - perhaps the most infuriating thing about this idea that the EU makes laws and imposes them on the UK without the UK's involvement is that people are quite happy to elect UKIP MEPs that consistently do gently caress all. It's basically the Tory privatisation tactic - don't do enough then turn around and claim that the thing doesn't work

Oh hey look at this thing my MP started - http://the-argument.org/The first article on the homepage, written by ex-banker, Blair speechwriter and Times columnist Philip Collins posted:The Labour party is at a crisis point, of that there can be no doubt. After the defeat of Ed Miliband in the 2015 general election the party came to a fork in the path through the wood. It decided to take the road less travelled by. It is discovering already, in the early difficulties of the Corbyn leadership, that there is a reason why it is a road less travelled. It is because it leads nowhere. The selection of Jeremy Corbyn to lead the Labour party will prove to be, in electoral terms, a catastrophe. But that question is not separate from the intellectual catastrophe that Corbyn represents for Labour. In fact, the very reason the electorate will not put him in Downing Street is that it will recognise the intellectual redundancy of his project. The current crisis will be measured and revealed by its absent votes but it is, first and foremost, a crisis of the intellect. This essay is an attempt to define that crisis and offer some tentative suggestions for what might be done about it. RobotNinjaHornets fucked around with this message at 23:52 on Feb 26, 2016 |

Interview with Corbyn in his local paper about the EU Mostly the good normal EU stuff he's been saying, including bringing up TTIP, but he mentions that they've got Varoufakis on board. Which is pretty cool.
