I mean, if John McDonnell is moving against Karie Murphy, then more power to his elbow.
Rory Stewart joking about Streatham Rovers hurts my head.

is there anything concrete about karie murphy being bad or does everyone just assume?

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/israel-boycott-local-councils-public-bodies-and-student-unions-to-be-banned-from-shunning-israeli-a6874006.html
Local councils, public bodies and even some university student unions are to be banned by law from boycotting “unethical” companies, as part of a controversial crackdown being announced by the Government.
Under the plan all publicly funded institutions will lose the freedom to refuse to buy goods and services from companies involved in the arms trade, fossil fuels, tobacco products or Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.

― Andrew Farrell,
A Conservative running for London is relatively short of options, and can't really run on record. Needs to run on character/personality, which he has the basic beginnings of but really needs fleshing out. Right now, its tough to see it working but people have a habit of falling for these things. I woudn't rule him out just yet

Watson is so like people I have worked with. When you start they sidle up next to you and complain about a few things that hey you've noticed too and this suggests they're on your side but the weird troublemaking gradually seems both relentless and uninformed by any specific vision of how things could be better. You eventually realise this person just fucking loves drama. I can imagine him crying at meetings when anyone calls him up on anything but isn't he also notorious for shirking meetings and just literally never being there? This all seems to square absolutely with a specific kind of toxic coworker that shows up in quite a few workplaces, it's just narcissism.
― plax (ico), Wednesday, 9 October 2019 07:56 (four years ago) link
thinkin' about those hesgoal.com streams...
mr Watson's m.o. is generally quite random/gullible/thoughtless or sometimes motivated by bdsm fash money or sometimes he is just desirous of some easy attention, but this shows he will take any position contrary to a Corbyn one .. no matter no how worthless and unpopular it is!

I'm not really that up with the zeitgeist so forgive me if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know if the Hedges account is anything to do with mr Bastard?
― calzino, Wednesday, 9 October 2019 09:23 (four years ago) link
when hedges very first manifested, several of TB's nearby twitter allies took it it to be a serious (and an unconscionable) example of the earnest dimness of FBPE-ism -- so i'm inclined to think not (tho i guess he might have amused himself by not hipping his pals to the joke?)
