Baron Corbyn posted:I think Carswell is relatively popular on a local level When he first defected and won his seat's re-election, BBC went down there to ask locals why they voted for Carswell/UKIP and the response from one local was "because our previous MP was loving useless." Voters are dumb, is what I'm saying.

Such a deal assumes that May would negotiate an utterly dogshit deal (at this point looking quite likely) that voters would come to their senses (not likely) and take part in the #LibDemFightBack leading to 100 years of Lib Dem hegemony.

MikeCrotch posted:Apparently the Greens in my area are full of right-wing Jill Stein-esque weirdos since all the left-wing people joined the Labour party after Corbyn won The Green Party's central committee are full of right-wing people who are virulently opposed to gay people, trans people, black people, women, Muslims, etc. The youth of the party frequently said that they're more naturally Labour but couldn't support New Labour. With any luck the outcome of the Corbyn experiment will at least have a new generation of left-wing Labour members to revive the party post-2020 defeat.

Guavanaut posted:Mainstream environmentalism has a very strong conservative trend when you go deep enough and I'm not sure why people are so frequently surprised given that 90% of the premise is "wasn't it better when this was all countryside?" It was a bunch of old white guys. It's basically their default state. Bonus points for the bewildered looking white dude ranting about "the Islams." Local parties can be better. Mine basically just talk about carpools, recycling and disability rights. Pissflaps posted:Yeah this will definitely revive Labour. Higher likelihood than impotently whining about Corbyn on a dead comedy forum!

The Scottish Green Party is very good. Except on the usual issues that goons love involving science. I have to admit I've not heard much from the Scottish one (for some reason down here in the Midlands).

I mean, if despite Corbyn's unpopularity and general party malaise Labour manage to start gaining in the polls it would be pretty impressive. Of course this will probably trigger a fuckbarrelling from our ever-so-delightful press. Tomorrow's headlines: "Corbyn fucks animals!*" *according to crazy man we found in a ditch
