have you quit the labour party yet?

Not remotely surprising - and worth noting that in London, the renters I knew were overwhelmingly pro-Corbyn and the homeowners the most vehemently opposed (although that was never their stated reason) https://t.co/6P1t8uVpjX

the most vehemently opposed people to Corbyn seem to be very quiet now there is a Tory leading the Labour Party

Hard to think of a more unprincipled senior figure in British public life right now https://t.co/YkVOUWppPQ

I wasn't expecting this from Nadia, but there you go.

"a motion that was clearly out of order"

Yeah, not sure what she's up to here.

Today's joker:

For the sake of any younger folks on here, I'd just like to assure you Keir Starmer is well to the left of where Tony Blair ever was

— James Harris (@JamesHarrisNow) November 27, 2020

lol most of the New Labour poverty ameliorating policies have already been denounced by his Shadow Chancellor as "spending too much"

I think Nadia has been supportive of Jammy Crumjirn but also keen to maintain party unity, I might disagree on this but she's still sound imo

you have to choose sides in a factional war and there is no such thing as party unity and never has been imo. But I still like her as a person.

more often than not "unity" is just a cudgel used to bludgeon elements of the losing side over the head with!

well yeah, but she's a good'un

I hope so as well. Her instincts have mostly been good so far.

Last year ⁦@Keir_Starmer⁩ was criticising the Tories for removing the whip from senior Tory MPs. Strangely he seems to have forgotten what he said then. #IStandWithJeremyCorbyn pic.twitter.com/rJiqTPvJcu

'I am normal'

say what like about jez, but he sure knew how get the most out of a photo op.

calz have you considered not posting about this guy for a week

have you ever considered not tone-policing other posters like some fucking pub landlady for a day or two? Nobody is perfect and to be quite frank I will post about what the fuck I feel like thank you very much.

Oh yeah of course it was quite remiss of me to post about Stramer on the "have you quit the labour party yet?" thread

sorry about grumpiness, but FFS!

lol @ you using “pub landlady” as a pejorative, do point me to any other examples? Cos I actually like you calz and this guy is all you post about atm.

Haaaaaaa that photo is in front of the pensioner huts around the corner from Leather Lane.

No it isn't. I have also posted about Burnley fc, Ingrid Laubrock and Diego M's corpse today. And that isn't including stuff I've posted about weather and drunken kitchen fires with an old friend on twitter. Maybe just mind own business rather than trying to lecture other people on how they should post, because that is just arrogant behaviour, gyac.

lol, k

calzino, please keep tearing into the cant. Reassures me that my present, perpetual anger at the state of things is warranted

At #JLM2020, Joan Ryan called for "examination" by Starmer & frontbench of roots of antisemitism in Labour. Mike Gapes said Starmer had "been doing a good job so far – much better than I expected" & he "can't back down". Neither confirmed applying to join Labour again.

critical support for Keith from Gapesy and Joan "look into your hands" Ryan.

bloody disgrace that he's dressed up for a star wars comic con when visiting a war memorial!

omg imagine if Corbz was snapped hogging a priority seat on the tube (despite being old enough to need one), but at least this fucker leaving his SUV in the drive at his townhouse will make the roads much safer.

Haha was just about to link this tweet

I’m no Corbyn fan, but afaict:

Corbyn: always stands on public transport, or sits quietly on the floor
Starmer: barges through the doors and heads straight for the priority seat and then watches Avatar on full volume pic.twitter.com/ITOpc7WDTh

lool

Avatar :D

i'd've gone with Road Trip

When was that taken? No masks. Please tell me he wasn't watching a film at full volume on a tube train.

must have been pre-Rona

xp

it's much worse than that, he was having a very loud facetime chat with Paul Mason apparently!

no signal on northern line

Starmer dropping a heavy hint that Ryan, Gapes, Berger, etc, will be invited back with the ‘five year rule’ waived.

what a triumph for ecumenism, what party wouldn't be improved by having Mike Gapes in it?

fucking disgrace

Imagine if he said at the hustings in feb: listen lads one of my long term strategies will be to bring back Gapesy (LOUD APPLESAUCE!)

lol

Peter Mandelson just told me this at @JewishLabour conference: in short, he said, Labour can't allow the left to legalise party management as it did in the 1980s. So ERHC recommendation of an independent disciplinary process cannot stand.

Thanks for doing that 20 minutes of unconscious bias training @Keir_Starmer, but perhaps the measure of your commitment to antiracism might be in opposing the deportation of Windrush descendants and people who have lived in the UK since childhood?

— Ash Sarkar (@AyoCaesar) December 1, 2020

Unconscious bias training fixes the unconscious, not the bias.

Diane Abbot

Kelvin Hopkins

John McDonnell

Fiona Mactaggart

Dennis Skinner

Jeremy Corbyn

the six Labour MPs who voted against the 2014 immigration act aka effectively the windrush deportation act.

shit like this is why Crombyn was unelectable. read the room, grandad

The Graun headline at the time: Tory Immigration suffers big blow as 98% of PLP abstain

I quit the Labour Party this morning for the record

It was not in fact difficult enough for me to have postponed it for this long

Well done.

My meltish former Labour local MP has unfollowed me for slagging off Starmer so much, but I've gained the much superior former Colne Valley MP, Thelma Walker as a follower. She's one of them who has quit the party over Corbyn's treatment and can't fucking stand him.
