Thornberry’s insta tells me nothing about her house except she has a nice mosaic inlay table that she puts things like wheels of Stilton and oysters on. I still think I’m right though.

Anyone watch the Liverpool hustings?

I've heard Nandy was very towns.

some reports saying Jess Phillips died a death and literally has nothing to say.

obv RLB was the best and Starmer was booed off the stage over his prevaricating answer over the use of poorhouse babies as foodstuff for cattle.

I have been in Emily Thornberry's car and it was a complete mess in the way that all cars are when they regularly transport small children around. (This was nearly 20 years ago admittedly).

Very small protest opposite Downing Street. EU berets, Russian flags, poster of Boris wearing a Russian hat - no cliche unsummoned. It just seems like a nice day out for them.

Also this is all wrong, the correct answer is:

RLB: Occasional Guinness
Thornberry: Red wine
JP: Cocaine at the Spectator Christmas Party
Nandy: Crap pills bought outside that one rave she went to in 1998, since that vodka and tonic, white wine, sometimes beer but never that craft beer rubbish. Coffee under no circumstances ever.
Starmer: Perrier

This is why we need Acid Communism more than ever

the day Starmer had a bad trip and grassed his dealer to the police and then did a citizen's arrest on himself...

Jess Phillips- "Boris johnson would be terrified to face me." #LabourHustings

not watched any of this, but reports seem to be quite unanimous across the spectrum that Jess Phillips was horrifically self-absorbed and bad. I bet even her own team hates her guts.

Imagining Johnson's sleepless nights at the terrifying prospect of being called bab by JP with an onion in her hankie

Timely piece from one of the co-chairs of the Jess Phillips campaign:

For the first time in a long time I’m feeling optimistic about Labour’s future. Jess isn’t the only credible candidate in the leadership race, but she’s the one that offers us the best chance to cut through. She says herself that she’d be unlike any leader we’ve ever had. A bold choice – but I think it will take bold to beat Boris.

"unlike any leader we've ever had" = who knew there was a worse human being than Blair?

Lisa Nandy, another credible contender for the top job, warns our party that if we don’t change then Labour “will die and we will deserve to”. She’s right.

Couldn't be bothered to create a login just for the pleasure of calling Streebing an amoral cunt

Why are all these fucks who told us the problem was Crumhorn and not the party telling us that the party has to change?

Good to see this, but has anyone besides these two actually said anything about the extremely cool remarks made by spice bag and far too many centrists?

It is not lost on me that both of these MPs are from the right of the party and from Irish families. (They each have two extremely Irish Wikipedia pages, lol)

Thornberry is G&Ts and Silk Cuts all the way. How do I know this? Because she posted ‘recovery aids’ to Twitter last year after getting pranged on her bike in Westminster and they were a massive bottle of Bombay Sapphire, slab of chocolate, and aforementioned brand of fags.

Keir is the red wine guy.

Silk Cuts are literally unsmokable, I hope she's just using them for spliffs

I sometimes used to put a rizla around the tiny holes in the filter tip or just rip it off to get a satisfactory drag if silk-cut was all that was available.

Yeah it's the only way to go, used to fuck my throat up sucking them down in dark clubs where you couldn't tell if they was lit or not

the fags, gin, chocolates and co-drydomal on her recovery table truly cement thornberry’s status as a queer icon https://t.co/BblFOO3VzG

Who knew you could still get Milk Tray?

It particularly annoys me because actually smart and assertive women are my favourite people

We’re talking about Jess Phillips so I’m not sure how this is relevant?

Thornberry gives off big messy energy, agreed.

She's always selling herself as 'taking ownership of being a gobby cow' which really annoys in how it implicates so many smart bolshy women who are routinely dismissed as such as though she were somehow representative instead of simply embarrassing

Yeah but my point was that she isn’t clever, I was just being snide that she even came up in that context. Of course, it’s not her being smeared as “thick” by half the media.

Oh okay I was being thick.

Lol yeah rlb is such an obvious pinot grigio

And she could have a nice figure like me.. But its her loss.

Lol that’s not what I meant! Guinness is extremely substantial as a drink, it’s hard to drink ime!

I'm quite fond of it with ribena or Schweppes blackcurrant, but you need gallons to even get fresh!

I like guinness and know plenty of women who drink it but the only english women I know who drink it are from liverpool

has RLB got kids? because if so she will have almost certainly been force-fed Guinness by an NHS midwife at some point

that's not still a thing

lol how old are you?

tbf mine are old now so probably not

everybody knows Guinness is the official drink of racehorses and pregnant women

we'll soon be going back to those days where some flustered looking quack who is quite possibly drunk prescribes a bottle of mackies stout for life-threatening illnesses or indeed anything!

I was listening to some audio oldtime reminiscing recently where a young girl was sent out to the local pub on the doctor's orders to get a noggin of prescription brandy.

I’m not overly convinced by RLB as Guinness though - how many women will have a Guinness, really? And RLB hardly looks like she drinks them - but I could see her as fond of cocktails. Nandy read solidly otm though.

I like stout in general but yeah I couldn't drink it all night. My nan used to have a thing for Mackie's and Vimto.

This young lad handles it better than I do ffs

And that pintbaby grew up to be a pintman

I’ve just come from a craft beer place where no stout so had porter, *hic* now have chicken doner, go me!

xp he’d take the shirt off any man’s back

I’d quote from this rather than linking, but I’m having the Zing scroll issue!
