Current Affairs The Labour Party

[roydo]

After this Brexit deal is announced the Tories will collapse.

Would be astonished if they didnt.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Why bother? The LP are winning anyway.

tis August, the silly season of politics, when other things are given attention because politics is on holiday...

 

[abelard]

Winning what mate?

The argument.

So did Bernie...

After this Brexit deal is announced the Tories will collapse.

Labour push to mid to high 40's when this happens. The Tory vote disperses, some to UKIP, some to Lib dems/Green, some to Labour.

You may be right. But any party that assumes the Tories wont regroup aint read much about their ability to win elections.

What argument?

The argument over austerity and the need to end it. That's the only game in town when all the BS is left one side. The Tories have capitualted on that one ideologically. It's how Corbyn's LP made inroads at the last election.

Presidential system is different to party system.

I agree, but I thought they had already started to reign back on it. The public sector wage rise for example. I fully expect a spend spend spend Tory manifesto next GE, Brexit dependent.

I pray that's the case.

I pray that's the case.

They will spike Labours guns. Thats what they do when they become a threat. Learnt that from Blair et al.

Zero problem with that.

 

[roydo]

Zero problem with that.

You surprise me.

 

[Number_25]

You surprise me.

Lol, the Labour Party are merely a tool toward a fairer society. If the Tories fancy spreading the wealth a bit, then that's fine by me.

All I care about ensuring that kids don't have the same upbringing as I because I know what that does to a person.

Fair play. I wish more on both sides could be like that.
