Absolutely pathetic this.

The fella has been a key part in a major foodbank that is keeping people alive in this city.
He had nothing to do with Momentum, and has apologised as I have previously pointed out for his remarks about the club. I bet Eggs has never met him personally and is motivated by his dislike of tu reps and shop stewards.
 
You are living in la la land if you think that's the issue.

The tories have turned into the working class party because the working class are now very different to what they used to be
The idea that the tories don't appeal to the working classes is bizarre. Who is it that you think is buying the biggest selling paper in the UK? It's not the bourgeois elite. The working class is full of racists and bigots. Little Alf Garnetts who hate immigration and believe that anybody who doesn't work as hard as them is a scrounger, they're the lifeblood of the tories.
 
A gentler, kinder politics.

i saw one of the clique threaten to beat you up last night.

good for you to keep going.

i saw this comment on the graun, nailed on i reckon:

People are turned off by this endless negativity from the left, and talk of never ending strife, fighting and resistance. Leftists who talk who endlessly about the difficulties in the country, while ignoring all the good things are depressing to be around. Recognise that Johnson won in part because non-politicos like his optimism, humour, cheerfulness and positivity. A good starting point for the left would to drop this aggressive hate filled tone and narrative.
 
Tories on TV all over the place trying to say Labour's policies are not wanted by the public, utter nonsense and spin again.

Corbyn and Brexit were responsible for 95% of this swing from Labour to the Tories, Labour can win an election with a manifesto like that with a different leader.

Where is the evidence for that?

...you’re right, I’ve not met Ian Byrne, but I did send him an e-mail and he was good enough to respond saying he had apologised for the tweet. I don’t dislike the fella, my point is Labour are selecting too many individuals for high-office who‘s background is TU. it’s a very narrow approach, they all talk the same talk.

Labour needs intellect rather than clones.

Why do you not dislike him if you think he has no values or decency? Do you think they're desirable traits?
 
This is all just a repeat of the referendum.

Don't like the result? Blame it on 101 different reasons other than the truth.

Labour didn't win because of the media, Tory lies , the media telling you not to like Corbyn , brexit etc How is that different to people voted leave because they are all racists ?
