It has been pretty clear that he as much a horrible party leader as a leader of the opposition. He was lucky that an influx of young disgruntled Labour members brought him to the top. But having grabbed power of the party he is mainly rejecting the interests of those who brought him there. I say it again that the tragedy of Brexit is that the stance of remaining and approximate half of you population never had a competent person standing for it. Neither before nor after the dufferdendum has there been someone making a good case for remainers. Something rather absurd for the leader of Labour and the opposition considering the majority stance of his party. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 9774 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 What I would Theresa May like to do is to write a letter to the EU and revoke A50 then resign and then make the best of her European freedoms, buying a Villa at the Costa Dorada, moving there and to send the ERG every week a crate of Cava and a Spanish cake to eat it.

Oh great, so we're totally fucked after all then. This is why I was down after the first round of indicative votes. Can someone please explain to me what the point of being in the CU is without being in the SM? Seriously, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21620 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Some stupid Labour MP bint on R5 now saying staying in the CU will protect agriculture, the car industry, and aerospace. No it fucking won't. They really just don't understand the issues involved. Frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5220 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Confidence vote against May being mooted by 1922. No details whatsoever from Corbyn's meeting other than that it 'went well'. Fuck knows where we're ending up. I'm trusting Keir Starmer on all of this more than Corbyn, although apparently Sturgeon met with him beforehand and was reassured by what he said. Though she could just be over selling it as a pressure move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21620 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Has there ever been a thicker fuck in parliament than Ian Lavery? A corrupt cunt as well. Quote At tonight’s special meeting of the Shadow Cabinet, Ian Lavery said “this party could be finished by a People’s Vote” and warned Jeremy Corbyn he would be the leader who split Labour if he backed one.

Rayvin 5220 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I stand corrected. It seems they may have rejected an amendment to it. Even the Guardian doesn't know what's going on anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reassuring in a way since I don't trust Corbyn not to "compromise" on FOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
