Beckett is the one who wants to start a TV channel instead of using that money to donate to the Labour Party.

Can someone post where polling on the leadership election is? I'm interested to see what they standings are.

I first learned that a sinus was reason to be concerned in my first year of uni when I woke up to find my left eye was swollen and unable to open. Specifically it was talking to a GP who had medical knowledge that allowed me to learn, rather than intrinsically responding to the issue by gaining knowledge from the ether.

Psyllium husks and coir (ground coconut husk fibre) are both good sources, and some of the more popular vegan burgers (Gro maybe, I think (which to their detriment suffer from being a bit chewy)) are full of various plant fibre if you check the labels.

Also bananas, like just getting and eating bananas. Excessive fibre can also be a problem.

It's genuinely more funny because Labour only had a snowflake's chance in hell under Corbyn in 2017, it's just a seat the constituents are determined to have occupied by a colossal wanker but this time around decided that wanker doesn't mean the Tory oval office picked to replace the prior Tory arsehole.

TBH Bercow was expected to defect to Labour prior to becoming speaker so this isn't that surprising. Bit annoying he didn't do it under Corbyn though what with being a Jewish lad who thought the accusations of anti-Semitism towards Corbs was bollocks, but I suppose defecting while Speaker would be a mite sus.

Bercow as leader would actually be extremely funny because I don't even know if he even disagrees with the tories politically as much as he thinks they're idiots.

Nah Bercow has a reverse-Sp!ked kinda trend where he was someone who joined the Tories on the far-right of the party and the more time he spent in Westminster the more he shunted left - his wife Sally likewise was a Tory but came over to Labour with Blair and was still a vocal supporter of Corbyn during his tenure.

It really feels like Raynor is being forced to have a 'source' or press person whose sole job is to make her look as stupid as possible. Like she's clearly getting on well with Corbs there so is that her pushing outside the boundaries that Smithers' crew will allow her and so she's being subjected to a deliberately absurd 'official' response?

She might also just be equally willing to pretend to be friends with everyone whenever it is convenient and also lie whenever it is convenient.

Maybe! I just don't want to dismiss her so easily. I remember her being decent throughout the Corbyn years and don't want to believe she's abandoned that path so easily. I'm not going to stan her or anything, just suspect that her getting lovely press isn't necessarily proof of her being The Arsehole.

His conclusions are that Labour's existing electoral base is continuing to crumble and the leadership remains bizarrely complacent/ unconcerned about this.

Yeah it's good, also interesting seeing Galloway basically walking on water as he campaigns around the town.

To be fair to Van Riper America has yet to win a war against unconventional forces. Their only victories were a bunch of small invasions and defeating Saddam Hussein for a bullshit "War on Terror" only to cause global terrorism to exponentially rise. If anything he kinda proved how America comes in flopping its dick only to get owned by a bunch of poo poo it hadn't planned for, whether it's Chinese reinforcements in Korea, the concept of trees in Vietnam or that training a bunch of fundamentalist religious fighters to kill their perceived invaders might one day have your own country seen as the invader.
