jabby posted:I presume 'could have been more supportive' is code for launching a public coup, briefing the hostile press and working constantly behind the scenes to undermine the leadership, something Jeremy Corbyn certainly never did from the back benches. What makes you think he could do this even if he wanted to?

jabby posted:For one, interviews with him and John McDonnell where they both refused to say anything negative about the then leadership, despite being heavily baited by the interviewer. Corbyn may have been a serial rebel but he never tried to undermine his party. No I meant actually capable of briefing the press and launching a 'coup'.

jabby posted:The latest ICM poll aptly demonstrates why subsample questions should be taken with several tonnes of salt. More people say the last two weeks have made them less likely to vote Labour than more likely. The opposite is true for voting Tory. However the Tories lost a point in voting intention and Labour gained. With the possible exception of headline voting intention it's all bullshit because people will choose the answer that reflects best on their chosen party. Which is perhaps why twice as many people gave the answer favouring the Tories than labour?

More from that poll earlier:quote:Some 49% of people backing Labour now say they are more likely to vote for the party because Corbyn is unlikely to become PM (against 43% who say it makes no difference, and 4% who say likely defeat makes them less likely to vote for the party.) So half of people intending to vote Labour are only prepared to do so for as long as labour winning the election seems unlikely. Because of Jeremy Corbyn. In other words, if labour were somehow able to increase their 28% poll share to an election winning position of, say, 40%, they'd immediately lose at least 14% of those who say they'll vote for them. Jeremy Corbyn is uniquely toxic to the electorate. Pissflaps fucked around with this message at 21:47 on May 2, 2017 |

LemonyTang posted:Theresa May is stamping her personal branding all over the campaign because she is the most autocratic PM in recent history, and we have had some pretty autocratic PMs. We're slipping down the road to an elective dictatorship. She refuses debate, she detests dissent. In her video posted in the thread, she talks about 'My party, my candidate.' It's both her personal popularity and her personal style. She wants to secure HER mandate for Brexit. She will completely own the government in the next five years. May is an authoritarian. "It can't happen here", apart from the study (which is awful) in the OP which showed that 25% of the population are "ethnic nationalists" and 25% of the population aren't far off that. Shite isn't it. We need somebody who can oppose her.

DesperateDan posted:Going by the graun liveblog he also said the UK could walk out of the EU without paying a penny. This is true - though obviously there would be terrible ramifications for any future trading relationship. This is all the start of the negotiations. Posturing. The EU wants 100 billion, we're saying we could pay nothing. The final figure will be in the middle, amortised over so long a period that nobody cares.

I think that as time goes on the 'divorce bill' will morph into an amount of money we contribute on an ongoing basis to the EU in return for some of the benefits of membership.

JFairfax posted:I don't know if any of you have tried to close a 'deal' as a business person, but let me tell you if one party thinks the sum should be £0, zero, zilch nothing and the other party believes it should be £XX,000 or higher then it's very difficult to meet in the middle. Thanks for the business insight Donald but this is clearly all just posturing from both sides.

JFairfax posted:we wont get anything back from the EU once we leave, especially if we've not paid our tab. This £x billion bill represents how much the EU still thinks we're committed to spending. This money didn't just disappear down a black hole, it's used to fund EU spending - which the UK benefits from. The alternative view is that we pay nothing and receive nothing back. It's not a credit card debt. It's more like trying to cancel a mobile phone contract early.
