PMs change and lol we're all gonna die (but brexit will never end)

dennis skinner is the father of the house of the left, just saying

theyd work with blair id say

And Boris Johnson.

It’s not reasonable to expect Corbyn to publicly concede that doubts about his leadership are sufficiently large that there is no prospect of him forming a government. That would mean Labour going into an election telling the voters that a no-deal Brexit was a calamity that had to be prevented – having publicly conceded that the argument that a Corbyn government is an equal calamity is at least sufficiently worthwhile to be conceded to in order to prevent no deal. No political leader would ever agree to an act of such colossal self-destruction.

Too left wing for them. Enough said?

p much

Why didnt the LibDems pretend to go along with it, then come out saying Corbyn was wanting to derail everything with some 'gulag' things, and well they did try their best?

Integrity, no doubt.

Ken Clarke: I wouldn't rule out becoming prime minister https://t.co/djjJk9jj1H

Ken Clarke: I wouldn't rule out sitting in with the John Coltrane Quartet

Ken Clarke:I wouldn't rule out being a spaceman

He hasn't announced his retirement from international football either. Just saying.

Ken Clarke: I wouldn't rule out playing for England

Probably not got the pace to play centre forward any more but he could do a job in midfield.

Fuck it Matt I was getting there

hell yes let’s replace our prime minister who none of us voted for with another one none of use voted for

fuck it, let’s all take turns

but seriously though the position of led zeppelin drummer remains infilled, maybe it’s time for clarkey to shine

a tory wet as prime minister only satisfies lib dems, about a tenth of tory voters, and every member of the london-based media

Cuddly Tories are our natural leaders

crushing the poors, yes, but gently

Nazi Supermen Are Our Superiors

i wonder how bad ken clarke's opinions on jazz are. what does he think about albert ayler?

I feel like he's probably jazzlishly liberal and only economically a complete and utter cunt

Apparently he's got pretty good taste.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/moslive/article-1357525/Louis-Armstrong-Miles-Davis-Kenneth-Clarkes-10-greatest-jazz-albums.html

Free Jazz, like abstract expressionism, was a propaganda invention of the CIA

also: new wave of new grave

He used to drink a glass of Glenfarcas while delivering the budget. Pretty decent single malt iirc? But the idea that the Labour Party would support any Tory as PM...lol. Says so much about ideas of who is “neutral”.

he likes ornette or once said he did but kind of blue is on the list so he's cancelled

No Wynton Marsalis on his list so he's alright in my book.

It used to be said that the Tory eurosceptics "couldn't take yes for an answer."

The remainists have gone the same way. Corbyn has offered them everything they wanted for a 4 week administration, incl. offer of a ref if they win. If they don't want to take it then...

I suspect Ken probably likes a load of very swinging hard-bop good stuff and I heard him stanning for Ella Fitzgerald once, but I'm still going to push the Tory piece of shit into a pit.

speyside whisky and ornette, this is the PM for me

if im honest the only candidate left is alexei sayle

That novelty act who did shit rap covers on the X Factor is probably still available

Don’t recall gaz coombes having ever ruled out being prime minister but maybe I’m misforgetting??

i believe he has ruled himself out of contention on the grounds that it wouldn’t be fair to any opponents

Gaz isn't about politics as long as squalid middle class privilege stays unruffled and he gets to go on the Mercuries once a decade

from the replies to that Lewis Goodall tweet

4 weeks, utter nonsense, if he got the keys to no.10, there would be colossus sized statues of magic grandad in every town and city centre within five years.

no they just terrified petty bourgeois soft tories

xp the Corbyn that exists in reality can’t compare to the fantasy who is both an authoritarian to beat Stalin and a weak old man who can’t get his own MPs to vote for him, depending on what the argument demands.

in short, they are bad and i do not like them

Ken Clarke is a terrible man in many ways, but I do like this anecdote from his autobiography (also called Kind of Blue groan) -

https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=N2hyDAAAQBAJ&pg=PA393&lpg=PA393&dq=ken+clarke+sun+ra+dancing&source=bl&ots=LIa0OqCuLw&sig=ACfU3U2J32G9oCnhPuwxsAX7LDcrHTrgpg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjdtt-0kYjkAhWNUlAKHQnNDwkQ6AEwAnoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=ken%20clarke%20sun%20ra%20dancing&f=false

Later in his career, Ellington produced some rather pretentious stuff but this is timeless, quality jazz.

And while I don’t think Mingus himself ever made a vast amount of money or added to the development of jazz, this is simply a wonderful record.

These are unacceptable jazz opinions for a future PM, I'd imagine JC's favourite jazz musicians are Courtney Pine and the guy who played sax in Latin Quarter which will have to do.

I want him to die even more for dissing late period Ellington, but alas only a stupid arrogant fatmouthed tory cunt!

Hugh Masekela was a titan of jazz and of the anti-apartheid struggle. His courage, words and music inspired me, were heard across the world and strengthened the resolve of those fighting for justice in South Africa.

Instead, he says, he will listen to Radio 3 or Classic FM. His wife of five years, Laura Alvarez, will often put on Magic and a morning turf war will begin ("We have a dispute about this").

good to see an inspirational story of someone who lived near, but not on a council estate thriving. Another success story for *checks notes* the private school she attended https://t.co/ymjWToAk4x

the Weetman laying down her gritty ghetto credentials, it's a tough bloody life growing up in a terraced house near a council estate! Too many of those wayward single parent kids like Prince Harry running amok from the estate I bet.

Need a poll on how close to an estate ilxor grew up

ILE has largely ignored/missed the work of Frances Weetman. I deeply resent the way Twitter brings the completely unsolicited opinions of these otherwise insignificant people into your timeline again and again and again.
