I quite like Andrew Neill he often doesn't let politicos get away with answering a question he hasn't asked.

Well forecasts have apparently been correct judging from the last two local elections, this time beaten into 4th place behind UKIP and the Lib Dems. What is Labour going to do to bring back confidence in it's leadership and manifesto. The latest poll shows the Tories 17% in front of Labour and Theresa May the choice for Prime Minister.

Apparently the old scruff's brain nearly exploded when Tatchell and co disrupted his speech with anti-Russian placards. Clearly dealing with on-the-hoof problems floors him, and anti-Russian sentiment puzzles the old fool intensely too.
No point in mentioning his praise of the dictator that was Castro; he was never going to let the passing of such a "Giant of the Left" go unmarked.
Poor old Jez doesn't realise he's not a student and it's not 1968 anymore.

If only he had access to a time machine, he could go back in time to the 60s and become relevant again. It looks like his most ardent supporters are starting to get squeaky bum time. :wink:

Corbyn wouldn't have been relevant even in the sixties, he's a pontificator, not a leader. He is the perfect example of Buridan's ass, if his life depended on his decision making skills we would be as well writing his obituary now. The experiment is over, there is no real appetite for the kind of politics he proposes, it's a shame but it's a fact, in the meantime we have a single party state and no effective means of stopping their excesses, if it wasn't for the Tory party's own internal shenanigans we would be working for company store tokens by now...well done momentum.

That useless lump of lard was even worse on the Andrew Marr show yesterday (11/12) ....completely unable to explain Labour's stance on the free movement of people/immigration/Brexit vote in parliament, and unable to offer any coherent strategy (after the recent by-election annihilation) other than "voters will recognise what a powerful and electable man Corbyn is by 2020".
Couldn't even acknowledge that to state (when asked about the coming Brexit vote and how Labour will vote, replying "we will do what's best for the British people" when most traditionally Labour areas outside of London voted overwhelmingly to Leave) that she and labour were still taking the "we know better than you plebs" stance.
Oblivion awaits you bunch of utterly traitorous losers.

The tragedy is ft that the corbynistas cannot smell the disaster about to befall the true labour party supporters who genuinely feel that a labour party truly equipped to be an effective opposition let alone a government in waiting is years away. I turned 70 on Sunday and I don't believe I'll live to see the day.

That must be the same three monkeys, Baldrick, that gave Trump 25/1 at the outset of his campaign :no no

Makes a Lab majority at the next General election at 6/1 with William Hill look pretty tempting as well IMHO.
Good security means trying to limit the damage a Trusted role can do

You're not really making much sense jet, Trump's victory shows that the voters are moving further away from liberal views, the man is about as far away from socialist values as you could be. What his victory means if it has any relevance at all in the UK is that a 1970s style Labour party is even less likely to be elected. Wake up and smell the coffee jet before it's too late.

That is of course there is an understanding of what real coffee is, rather than the insipid crap served in 60s Wimpy coffee bars so beloved of the socialist beatnik generation of the 60s era "man". :dance
