Current Affairs The Labour Party

If anyone wants to do leafleting/door knocking get yourself to Southport, the only odd balls in Merseyside who elected a Tory MP, Labour were 3000ish behind in 2017 so can win it

Jess Phillips should be the Labour leader. Brilliant politician.

She's awful.

Well, if she was going round graffitiing their houses and sending them hate mail I'd be forced to agree. I don't think she was, though.

Hardly her style. Character assassination more likely.

Thought it was very strange that the BBC said the Tories could lose Southport to the Lib Dems when Labour are in 2nd place. Hope it gets flooded with Labour activists over the coming weeks.

Something I've always thought odd, especially for a party who so often claims to be 'for the many'. Why would it take an election for the area to be 'flooded by activists'? Surely if you truly cared about the people there rather than wanting them to vote for you, you'd be flooding it all the time and it wouldn't be a question you'd even need to have?

Those dangerous, anti-semitic, cultist yobs of school teachers, nurses and retirees at Momentum have raised over £100,000 in 12 hours.

C'mon, Labour, into these.

The leading tactical vote campaign is recommending people vote Lib Dem in places they are a distant 3rd and have no chance of winning, thus potentially denying Labour win it and Tories do.

I want tactical voting this time like 2017 and I dont mind Lib Dem winning Lib/Con marginals, but them trying to win Lab/Con marginals is dangerous and going to help the tories

Sorry Bruce, is this your first election or something?

Labour run events up and down the country all the time, as do all parties. Don't know why you're surprised people campaign more during an election. People have busy lives. Jobs and families and all that.

Boss. Glad to be one of the cultists.
