seeing a few peeps in UKMT saying they don't know what Corbyn's policies are and that they don't like his personality I see a lot of what I consider malicious ignorance instead of outright stupidity in that thread, what is it with you people

Fallen Hamprince posted:Western leftists, or at least anglosphere leftists, like to delude themselves about how mainstream their politics is to the point where UK trots can't imagine a political position to the right of Blair-era labour when no, actually, Blairite neoliberalism is still (slightly) left of the UK's center and there's a reason even Corbyn isn't pledging to nationalize all banks on day 1. You described the Canadian Liberals as center-left. They're not, and the gulf between them and the NDP is larger than you admit Hell I just looked up 'loog's beloved BC state liberals in Wikipedia and they're listed as fiscal conservatives operating on the center-right i say swears online has issued a correction as of 08:22 on May 11, 2017 |

Nonsense posted:The PRD have been forever mocked as the looney left, it will be interesting to see if Obrador can rise to the occasion. Yeah he broke off, took most of the voters with him, and is now leading in the polls. This will be the first election where the PRI isn't in the top two.

from graun liveblog She got put through and was told that I was ineligible to vote as a Polish citizen. Well, wasn’t I glad to whip out my British passport and wave it in her face. And then whoever was at the end of the line started crumbling. Oh, it’s a clerical error they say. She is indeed a UK citizen. So what do I do? asked the nice lady. ‘Give her a ballot and mark a clerical error in your register’ they said. So that was that. They said at the station that there had been four other people who were refused the ballot there despite being apparently naturalised and registered, but they didn’t persevere like I did, and walked away. I voted, smiled, and left. With a very high blood pressure rate, for sure. Well, that’s how elections are won and lost, and citizens categorised as A or B (yes, those of us who may be a G).
