bojo is king, brexit is on, stuff is fvcked, tomorrow starts here -- new govt new thread new battle

So says the king of the personal attack.

i wonder if it's...possible...that "think about your first choice" is meant for voters who slightly favour Starmer but are havering between him and RLB and might second choice her for some kind of 5D chess reasoning

that's the only way i can parse that sentence at all, otherwise yes it's a mistake either grammatically or logically or god knows

altho i agree with calz that Starmer ultimately will favour the Labour right i don't think that's at all clear and obvious to swathes of the electorate yet so there's still a lot of fudge and a lot of codespeak in many messages

xxp
There might be somebody else that wants to get in to a conversation with Fred B about 2nd pref voting in the labour leadership election but that certainly isn't me. I've already said and maybe rambled and digressed a bit as well, that I'm only voting #1 choices for leader and dep. But telling someone they don't know what they are talking about because they don't want to analyse a tweet they've shared on their domestic politics thread is the type of sad twat you are I'm afraid Fred. There is no cure for your condition.

You posted a tweet and you literally don't have the slightest clue what it's about.

I tried getting into a discussion with you about it, honestly thought I might learn something, you started rambling, then all of a sudden attacking a completely different poster.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for you or something?

well nobody is paying me to type here, unlike when you gave 6 stars to Dunkirk you fucking joke!

Lol, jokes on you, nobody payed me for that review either

there is a surprise!

But yeah, I'm out. This thread is literally unable to muster the collective intelligence to figure out how the rules of the leadership election are going to work. So... Good luck, I guess. And good thing you really cracked down on facts and nuance.

*takes a deep breath"

Isn't that tweet aimed at RLB people, saying just don't bother with a 2nd choice as there is no other left candidate, and don't flirt with 'electability'.

No, that tweet has a typo in it

So what if it does, jesus wept!

calz i don't think that was a critique, i think Fred and Tombot were saying the advice made no sense for RLB supporters unless there was a mistake.

I just took it one way at the time or as fred would have it "didn't understand it". I'm cool with everyone and just posting as I normally do ¬!

xp to fred

Your movie reviews are like your painfully bad posting on ilx, a different kind of paywall is required. One where the author actually pays you to read it!

*calmly posting as I normally do*

Ok got it.

"But yeah, I'm out, This thread is literally unable to muster the collective intelligence..."

all part of my cunning plan of course!

The Home Office plans to deport 50 people to Jamaica on 11th February.

Cancel the flight until the Lessons Learned Review is published and its recommendations implemented, or risk repeating the Windrush scandal.

I've read some of these poor bastards have not been able to access legal counsel or family because of either defective mobile phones or some signal jamming skulduggery. Fucking awful.

Yeah, mr Starmer I've got a question for you, you nauseating cunt, if too many of us got detentions would we all have to go on intensive night detentions and be deprived of water and basic human rights etc in aid of a Tory publicity stunt .. cos aren't you meant to be an opposition politician.. just asking for a friend.

if you want the nauseating cunt to answer your question why are you posting it on ilx?

because it was a rhetorical question obv

why don't you forward a reason why he would be a good leader for the Labour party.. I'm all ears.

I think you posted you had killiefied most of us from this thread a few weeks back. Obv just a passive aggressive tantrum.

why don't you want to ask him the question directly?

because I'm scared of his hair!

you you aren't really telling me I should be abusing him personally on social media rather than the harmless anonymity of just ranting about him on here are you?

seriously just fuck off

BRIIIIDGE

lol that might end up costing more than HS2, they won't be doing both without some new added extra shitiness and human misery austerity and then some!

place your bets on how many times it'll get bombed during construction

It'll never get started - ideally they'd just take the bids from companies who'll swear to do it and just jail the boards.

xp
you mean from terrorists or just the tons of unexploded ordnance that is lying 1000ft below site going off!

Unexploded ordnance? In a windy stretch of sea? Is this going to happen? No.

the CPC could find the materials, engineering expertise etc to knock it out in 6 months to a year probs, it won't get off the drawing board in this little nowhere island with delusions of grandeur.

This is a good point on the Corbyn coalition.

I have the feeling that the demo to stop deportations tonight is something that Corbyn in 2015 would have attended but I get the feeling no Labour leadership contender will be there this time :( pls proof me wrong

Is 2020 Corbyn going?

Trying my best here.

Going going gone.

He'll be there, hes just drying his red waterproofs on the rad!

Assuming they do manage to avoid the literal and figurative unexploded bombs then where on the West Coast of Scotland has the infrastructure and connections to be able to cope with it?

Why the bustling metropolis of Portpatrick of course.

boris' history with bridges isn't great

wall-to-wall 60s pop-stars angrily refusing the necessary road use across their vast empty grouseshoot moors

Also are they going to get the bits of oil rig they need to transport under the bridge or somehow over it? Or just travel miles out of their way with these massive bits of equipment?
