At last, a purpose for the royal wedding (other than winding up Mail readers) http://gazcookscrap.blogspot.co.uk/2018/05/goldburger.html

The way i see it after reading a couple of things lately..if he goes against Brexit he alienates Labour's northern strongholds. He's not aboit abandoning the loyal. So he's being a bit wishy washy on Brexit to make sure they dont defect to (a possibly Farage led) ukip or even worse, a Tory party hurtling towards a hard Brexit. Hes not ditching his base in an attempt just to grab power for himself. He could as somone said denounce Brexit and campaign for another referendum but his most loyal support base would fuckin lynch him.

I have a big deck whereas he has a large seating area

Sounds like they’ve been bought by a couple of clueless chancers......this has disaster written all over it iyam

Well thats kinda boring.

bit of a step down from Eastleigh, mind you

Oh yes it is!

The £40m is payable within 2 years and secured against their parachute payments

Never heard of him. Or his silly hat.

and the travesty is labour are going along with it, and, by extension, facilitating the whole fucking charade

Also this myth about it being the labour heartlands voting Brexit, when we all know Brexit is mainly a conservative phenomenon. Bridget phillipson is vocally anti-brexit. I would bet my house she is re-elected (although not if they found out she isn't a MLF).

I doubt he’d want to go back to England at this stage of his career anyway

What did momentum have to do with the Blairite defeats in 2010 and 2015? Do you honestly think Owen Smith or any of the others would have got 40% or more since even Blair barely managed it? Is there any evidence another leader would poll higher? How do you combine your view that voters want a way out of brexit with the wipeout the libs suffered based on just another vote never mind soft terms?

No

Aye, at the stage he is in his career I’d imagine he’d be more of a sub/rotation option. Which of course would be good but there’s fuck all chance of us paying the sort of wages he’d no doubt be wanting if that was the role he’d have.

That's democracy Dennis.

A certain number of those voters will have changed their mind. A large majority of those voters would never vote for Corbyn. A large number of them don't vote in general elections. Stopping Brexit would like lead to the rise in a pro-Brexit political party which would take votes from the Tories. So there aren't 17 million votes there to be won or lost.

Ironically I think the Tories could've destroyed Labour by adopting that but they're balls deep into making Brexit appear as hard as possible with their 'will of the people' bullshit

On this day 1969 Newcastle United v Rangers Fairs cup

I'd like him to endorse a Norway plus deal, and, you know, positively campaign for it. It's overwhelmingly the most popular option for most people.

Yeah honestly I think Corbyn is a halfwit, but I still admire his principles and agree with most of what he stands for. I generally just get annoyed at the media bullshit that I consistently have to take apart in order to get to a factual understanding of his position on anything. So, as much as this has turned into another Corbyn debate, all I was really saying was "Look, the media were being dishonest fucks". That no one has challenged this suggests to me that I had the right of the anti-semitism 'scandal'.

offer a referendum on the final deal? anything to differentiate labour from the tories

It was only a 7 a side tournament

all corbyn has to do is offer a referendum on the terms of the final deal, instead of offering nothing that sets labour apart from the tories. all he has to do on antisemitism is say, i condemn antisemitism. instead of his usual cop out: i condemn antisemitism and all forms of racism. but he can't bring himself to do it, just like with the ira situation. sacking the leading antisemites in the party woudl go some way to making these headlines disappear too, but he's too stubborn to do it

No. You grow up.

Well they did try that with Rangers.

Paddy goes for a job, the interviewer asks him to give his full name. Paddy answers, "Sortanly sor, it's Patrick Mulligan-Flaherty', sor." "How do you spell that?" Asks the interviewer. "Stick the fucking job up your arse!" Replies Paddy. "Ok, we'll skip that one for now." Says the interviewer, "Can you lay bricks?" He adds. "No." Says Paddy. "Are you any good at joinery?" The interviewer enquiries. "No." Say Paddy "Any general building skills at all?" The interviewer asks. "Not really, sor." The interviewer scratches his head and says, "This job is for a school handyman. How the hell are you handy?" Paddy replies, "Oi just live round the corner, sor!"

It was all down to Jimmy Hill marra.
