Current Affairs UK General Election July

Think the problem here is that the majority of people don’t even know what left wing is and their opinion has been formed from watching too many 80s cop movies with baddie Russian comrades.

Funny how factionalism within the Labour party, much like antisemitism, was only really worth reporting on daily during the Corbyn years.

He was being repressed.

Monty Python did.

 

[TrachyBlue]

And you clearly have no comeback to refute any of that. Like the man himself when he's pushed to explain his past associations and friendships with the likes of Hamas, IRA figures, criminally convicted anti-semites, etc.

Game. Set. Match.

Not the brightest are you.

Your final paragraph is nonsense.
I was delighted to campaign for a Blair victory and the policies that he promoted.

pro-murder of a million iraqis is an interesting thing to support to say the least

Where did I say that I supported everything that Blair did? I was happy to campaign for him to be elected and believed in his manifesto.

I have no idea why he decided to hlitch his wagon to Bush.

He couldn't beat Theresa May who ran an utterly awful campaign or the serial liar Johnson. It's his own fault.

This is a bit of fantasy really - May called that campaign because the polls had her miles ahead, and thought Labour would collapse. Their campaign was terrible but the Labour one was brilliant, focusing on parts of the electorate that all parties had ignored and the end result was a vote count that that may well be more than what Starmer gets in this predicted landslide.

In 2019 the Tories were a a bit wiser, they fought a campaign with unlimited funding, unprecedented support from wider society and made sure that (unlike 2017) the anti-Corbyn Labour MPs didn’t stay silent.

Start of the Reform slide, hopefully.

….on holiday in a very prim and proper hotel. Sitting in the bubble pool a bloke mentions he’ll be back home to vote, a woman says; “I’ve worked in the Ambulance Service for 14 years and Sunak is a tw@t’.

Spot on dear.

 

[Blue 1]

Your daily Daily Telegraph update.

Once again, "You get what you fukn deserve".

 

[davids]

While I don’t disagree with this. The gutter press, gullible public and Labour in-fighting is something every Labour leader has to deal with.

Those things were in place pre and post Corbyn and will never change.

Being a neo Tory helps though...see Blair and Starmer.

All going to Lib Dem, all now makes sense

I'd say 99% of normal people have probably never even met a genuine far left or far right 'extremist'
