The constantly bungling leader of the Labour Party has bungled one of the most challenging political events the country has faced in decades? who would have thought?

The SWP is garbage and Owen Jones is doing the right thing

Here is a thought: maybe Labour should have a leader who appeals to the British electorate and not just party members?

Following the election last year really made me appreciate our political system, even if it can be a bit poo poo at times

Stewart Lee is a good lad and I dont blame him for joining a pro remain party when his own MP failed to represent the wishes of their constituency because she had too many G&TS

Glad to see that Corbyns unique brand of straight talking, honest politics has had another astonishing success

Parliament is good actually and a lot of good can come from it, but only if you win!

forkboy84 posted:Stop being a loving pedant. The exact year doesn't matter, the PM doesn't matter, the fact that the post war consensus (which only came about because of rather extraordinary circumstances) ended at some point before I was born sort of seems the major point. Quite a lot has changed in the past 40 years, in the media, in politics, in attitudes, etc. nice meltdown

forkboy84 posted:Early twenties, maybe. For someone born in 1990 it'll be one of the first political events they remember, and was a formative experience for an awful lot of people who are still young in political terms (which is to say under 35). Even if you were 5 at the time of the invasion and all the protests, you were old enough to experience a lot of the gory consequences of the war, there's not a tiny chance you knew someone who served over there in the 8 years our forces were over there. what you have said is all valid but there isnt actually much evidence to suggest that the invasion of Iraq resulted in disillusioned young peoples turning away from politics or whatever http://blogs.nottingham.ac.uk/politics/2013/02/18/the-invasion-of-iraq-did-many-things-putting-young-people-off-politics-wasnt-one-of-them/

its amazing how what is likely to the biggest political event of our lifetime doesn't inspire the jam man, its like he is not that fussed about leaving the EU or something

its all well and good to scoff about how terrorist attacks are actually a very rare occurrence or whatever but counter terrorism and defence are real issues that, come the election, the tories will give Corbyn an absolute hammering over
|
# ¿ Feb 25, 2017 16:31 |

in 2020 the tories will paint corbyn as being a terrorist sympathiser who is weak on defence, and hell, it will work like a charm

Big Tone and Gordon "Son of the Manse" Brown should reconcile and return to save the labour party from itself
