  1. Holy fuck... if it's actually that successful it should be issued readily for people suffering that sort of condition.
  2. what in fuck is that thing.
  3. They are indeed. They'd be heading there without him too, IMO, but either way they're fucked. Who cares though, the Tories moved centrally so what difference does it make to NuLabs? They're nearer to the NuLab position than Corbyn is surely?
  4. Trump won because Hillary was so terrible. He had a 60% disapproval rating on the day of the election and 17% of the people who voted for him thought he was unfit to be president. He was voted in because they didn't want an establishment, corporatist politician. This is also why the Democrat party is now undergoing a hostile takeover in the same way Labour did with Momentum. Eventually you guys in the centre are going to have to 1) conclude that the world has gone to shit and the truths you thought you knew don't apply, and 2) pick a side.
  5. I mean to be fair, if our Brexit negotiations are anything to go by we'll be fucking shit too. Maybe he's doing us a solid.
  6. That's the battlefield way, no?
  7. Not really a concern for us is it? He's only disadvantaging himself, really.
  8. I hope you're right tbf, it'd just be an appallingly shit example of management, if true.
  9. I think Djilobodji was signed pre-Moyes, mind. Also, apparently they're in for someone on loan for LB. Basically agree but you're suggesting that they're either resigned to relegation or so financially destitute that £14m now looks more attractive than £100m in the summer, or whatever gets paid out for each PL season. Especially since, surely, they have to spend this £14m now. I'd be tempted to think they are resigned to it but then, if they were, they'd have sold Defoe for £15m.
  10. Quite possibly is. Still not sure it's actually him that's rebelling here unless ewerk has a source that isn't showing up on Google yet. That said, if the PLP think they're going to sail back in and retake the party here they've another thing coming I suspect. Labour is going to be hobbled either way, with or without Corbyn.
  11. The party whip is Nick Brown, isn't it? If so he'll be doing it for his constituency (of which I am part). EDIT - I imagine I'll be getting an email from him in due course to explain it... EDIT 2 - It's not him, it's two party whips. Not the chief whip. I was going to say it'd be a surprising turn of events as Brown has stuck with Corbyn solidly.
  12. I dunno, you can actually get decent value still I'm sure. Especially if they target the usual cloggers who are all blood and passion - they might yet pull themselves out of it. Counting against them is the fact that they're generally awful in the transfer market - but maybe Moyes has some ideas. I just don't think they'll have countenanced this thinking that they'll be making it more likely that they go down. They must have an end game to this that, to Moyes at least, makes them look more likely to stay up.
  13. Yeah but they have £14m to spend now. We'll see some panic buying ahead, I suspect.
  14. That's amusing but at the same time Allardyce is a bit of a pillock here. PVA was never a great player.
  15. Wtf are they moaning about? They're doing well - granted they lost to Southampton but shit happens. Generally one of the better performing Liverpool teams in living memory.

  17. They age under the stress I suspect, but I'm not convinced any of this is phasing Trump... he might simply not care.
  18. Here is Cenk's video about kicking it off. Genuinely think there might be something to this - it's exactly what is needed. Change from the left. Not the fucking right. I very much hope it succeeds and can be replicated.
  19. On the punching of the nazi, I have found more support for my view from the guy now setting up the Alt-Democrats. Pretty much word for word what I said:
  20. Sounds like at least a couple are considering it. Stupid decision from Corbyn anyway - it'll be an effort to appeal to the people who want Brexit and to fend off UKIP, but ultimately that message simply isn't getting through and looks like a feeble attempt to follow along with the Tories. As such, the only outcome will be the destabilisation of the party and the opportunity for the media to portray Labour as disunited and weak again. Which on this evidence, they are.
  21. We're working on it...
  22. One of the points of this is to purge the DP of donations from corporate sponsors though. Would the corporates accept that? I think this might be a more significant change than a matter of just keeping the corporate democrats honest...
  23. The left wing in the US seem to be trying to get it together in an attempt to hijack the Democratic party. The US version of Momentum, perhaps. One that might be able to succeed, you never know: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2017/01/23/progressives-launch-justice-democrats-to-counter-primary-corporate-legislators/?utm_term=.c02ef4dbb840
  24. Fucking hell. Nice of them to pay for his travel though.
