Current Affairs The Labour Party

[Rita_Poon]

Quite possibly one of the best political interviews I've seen.

The way he got a round of laughter with his Moses quip. I'm not sure who he's going to be a bigger pain in the arse for, the tory scum or the starmer dramas.
Having old george turn up and start grandstanding in parliament will certainly be must see tv. 70 years old and still raising hell.

Trouble brewing.

Nail on the head.

Wow, nothing changes does it. .

Representatives of the three main parties discussing voter disillusionment due to political parties promising change and delivering absolutely nothing. Galloway describing the three agendas that all three main parties have in common, namely neo liberal politics, foreign war and cuts to public expenditure and then rather aptly describing them as three cheeks of the same arse.

Bit weird that speech Sunak made yesterday just after the result of the by election, I reckon they know that there are going to be some VERY uncomfortable statements made in the commons in the near future, with politicians and the massively compliant client media doing their level best to smear the source of those statements. Its gonna be fun watching them all squirm, especially Starmer

Couldn't help but feel massively gaslit after the Sunak speech, reckon him and Starmer came to some sort of deal regarding public order.

The louder ya scream the faster we'll go!

Yeah, I thought that about how a lot changes, yet stays the same.

Woodcock is just a snake, in politics for what he can get out of it. I did think on Friday that the subtext of Sunak’s speech was to encourage PC Plod to throw his weight around a bit on certain demonstrations if he felt like it

That was probably the intention, but unlike Thatcher they have not yet understood that you have to get on PC Plod's good side before you tell him to throw his weight around. Thatcher was able to use the Police because she enriched many of them, but these have done the opposite and they are blatantly unwilling to actually accept the responsibility for it anyway.

As for Woodcock, ever since his betrayal he has gone some way behind snake behaviour. What he is proposing there is something that has never been seriously considered, by any British government or political party. It wasn't even seriously considered when the IRA were blowing up MPs; people still met with Sinn Fein.

it's as though they are pandering to andersons plea for the rozzers to be the private army of the torys.

Yes I agree, PC Plod isn’t in the Tories pocket as he was in the Thatcher era. The police aren’t quite as compliant as they were then.

Worm.

Worm.

Should put a ban on those Friends of Israel clubs within parliament.
Never mind MPs going on demos.

The Labour Shadow business secretary is attending this. No mention of anyone from the (current) Government. Interesting

New business coalition aims to tackle poor UK productivity

Microsoft and Vodafone are among the backers of the Building Back Britain Commission, which will be launched at an event attended by Labour's shadow business secretary, Sky News understands.
