May playing to the Daily mail/scum gallery with her rant about the EU interfering in our election.

Straight out of the Donald Trump conspiracy handbook.
 
I'd like a new party. One based on helping workers, making work pay, incentivising businesses to make more jobs, and helping the vulnerable. But not one washed up in deeply entrenched ideology. I want pragmatic politics.

Step up someone please.

On my way to work today I popped into Greggs to get myself a coffee.

On the wall there was a poster, detailing how 10p of each cup of their fairtrade coffee goes to charities.

You express that ideology isn't required, when we are living in an ideology that not even Orwell himself could write.
 
I can't as I don't think labour are standing in my constituency in NI. NOT that I would have anyway. I hate what he's done to the party who were closest to my views.
I'm hardly Jeremy Corbyn's biggest fan and I'm far from convinced that he can ever win a general election (though I'm still at a loss as to who Labour could place as leader who would stand any chance of winning) I'd like to know what exacally has he 'done to the party's' that's so horrendous in your eyes?

Just to put this one to bed....


Sorry Clint you must be mistaken with the 1981 date because according to this Telegraph hack,

'Her premiership was defined by the diktat that under no circumstances would the British government negotiate with terrorists – a policy that survives to this day'.

Labour talking to the IRA - bad and the media will slag them off.

Tories talking to the IRA - good and the media will applaud them.

Not unusual for the Tories to say one thing and do the exact opposite. A bit like May's u turn on national insurance tax increase on the self employed.
