Lots of white people in the QT audience for the noted Sharia ruled Islamic no-go zone Birmingham.

Isn't that only a thing Americans believe? Surely no British person could be deluded enough to think that they can't go to Birmingham?

Dyslexia is genetic in case anyone was wondering, so yes this is an extremely weird case of eugenics.

Did you just have an epiphany that theres the perfect party out there for your third way horseshit and that all this time arguing pedantically has been somehow wasted?

pissflaps is correct in dismissing the idea that a party that spent five years propping up Cameron's administration could be considered a party of the left, even the centre left.

I don't actually consider the Liberal Democrats to be on the left at all really, I'd describe them as centre-right. The thing is New Labour are no more leftist at all and also belong to the centre-right. If you want a neoliberal party with "progressive" branding the Liberal Democrats are still the best fit.

the Liberal Democrats' entire political legacy is to collaborate with the Tories to dismantle the state. There's some diamonds in the New Labour poo poo. The biggest success Lib Dems can kinda sorta claim from their time in government is gay marriage and that would have passed with the Cameron wing of the Tories + Labour and the rest of the opposition who voted for that and even that is worthless now they've put a guy who didn't vote for it and thinks the government is turning frogs gay in charge.

March 31 1854, Commodore Matthew Perry and the Black Ships force Japan to open its ports for trade, ending centuries of sakoku almost 153 years to the day that Theresa May would signal the beginning of a new era of sakoku in the United Kingdom.

coohoolin for one

do Scottish nationalists like Corbyn? I thought they all got mad at him for being a unionist and not saying that Labour were wrong and bad for standing against Scottish independence.
