I just had a read of that and it's fucking insane. The Labour Party has been invaded by those who seem intent on using it as a protest group rather than an organisation in a position to actually improve people's lives. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44398 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Ah they're waking up to Nandy now. I'm at the front of the Nandy bus, talking to the driver. We're mates. You just get your ticket and see if you can still find a seat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21311 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 So RLB is looking likely to win. The tories must be pissing themselves, guaranteed 10 years now no matter how fucked the country ends up. The trajectory of this country is now firmly heading in the direction of the USA and it will be irreversible in our life times. Let's be clear, the people who enabled Corbyn, whether their intentions were good or not, are just as much to blame for the mess the country's in as CT is. Worse in fact, as they haven't learnt a fucking thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30266 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Is she likely to win? The declared candidates aren't on the ballot just yet, if a couple of them fall then it narrows the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
