Kid Dynamite 6986 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) With a GE likely rapidly approaching, Labour could really do without Corbyn defending Iran like. He's loading his opponents bullets atm I get why he's doing it, the whole thing is dodgy as fuck, but he must surely know he's going to get pelters for it Edited June 15, 2019 by Kid Dynamite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30266 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Their failure to recognise or celebrate any of New Labour’s achievements is a disgrace. Lumping them in with the Tories as Rayvin does is some shameful shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Yeah sadly that’s the mantra, it’s absolutely appalling. Blair made life better for a lot of people & won 3 elections by landslides. I’m exhausted listening to people equate Blairism with Thatcherism as well. Not only is it profoundly stupid & ignorant, it’s also largely pointless and will only cause division. You can have the nicest politics in the world & labour have had far left socialists before but it matters not if you can’t win an election. Also - I don’t think there’s a british government in history that wouldn’t have went to war with iraq. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinkany people who slag off New Labour and its achievements don't grasp the context of the time. Thatcherism had fundamentally changed us as a country and permanently moved the pendulum far to the right, which pulled everything else with it. A lot of New Labour would have preferred stronger socialist policies but that door was already closed. As an aside, remember the calibre of politician we had in Blairs cabinet and contrast it with today's. The New Labour years were halcyon days. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen this video where Johnson openly advocates Turkey to join the EU, just a few years before the referendum? Johnson is and always has been one of the biggest europhiles in the tory party.

Despite having neoliberal (Thatcherite tendencies) Blair's New Labour did a lot of good. It's a real shame that after Brown, they failed to oppose austerity, which is now responsible for the deaths of 130,000 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
