if you’ve been wondering about been about how Jess Phillips could possibly twist the Sarah Everard case to be about her, well, wonder no more

she’s not wrong about it being a police problem rather than a women problem, but there is absolutely no reason the word “I” needs to be anywhere in that article

Rosie Duffield's got to be one, surely

then Lisa Nandy, and maybe Graham Stringer?

Duffield leaving would guarantee labour get the seat next election, why take her?

right now I don't think Labour are retaining the seat with her in it, her blatant trans- and biphobia are losing her support in Labour fast

plus at some point Keir is going to have to actually make a decision about keeping her in the party, I can see her jumping before she's pushed

Spangly A posted:

And why would Nandy leave? She's put proper work into leadership ambitions that shell be admitting are over

Nandy is admittedly much more of a stretch but she's been consistently one of the very bluest of blue Labour, maybe she thinks she can rein in the extreme wing of the Tories some

After this long what would it actually take for them to get rid of her? They've spent the last few years happily complicit in her bigotry.

it kinda feels like the backlash she's getting is getting larger and harder to ignore whenever she opens her mouth and shits her awful opinions everywhere, but that might just be confirmation bias on my part

the only people who are going to jump are some sort of incredibly egotistical "they vote for me not for the party" morons so it kind of has to be someone at least vaguely well-known

Ian loving Hislop sitting there and cracking the world's laziest jokes about how the Tories are all incompetent or corrupt or both, without any acknowledgement that the years he and his media pals spent shrieking about Corbyn made a very significant contribution to keeping those same Tories in power

The weird thing is that the public grudgingly supported XR. I remember people late for work, held up by the worst possible student theatre, grumbling "well the climate is important" from their cars. Everyone itt, and every leftist I know personally, gave them poo poo for backing off when they had public approval for an effective strategy to harm the government and economy.

How has the presence of a concrete demand caused this switch?

they've attained a high level of notoriety through extremely visible protests and then managed to put forward the most incredibly unsuitable idiots possible to do all the media interviews

the question is whether they're an op and this was purposeful, or whether they're just a bunch of complete morons

(it's probably both)

with GC though, I don't think he's got enough self-awareness for that, I'm sure he genuinely thinks it's good
