Bit like saying the kitchen’s on fire anyway, what harm can a little petrol do? Definitely open to renationalising energy, windfall taxes, short term cap on profits etc. Definitely in favour of an incremental rise in wages and a rise in corporation tax. But double-digit pay rises across the...

I know their points of view mate. I disagree with them on some points. But that’s ok, I still support what they’re saying about wages and energy bills. I’m long enough in the tooth to realise I’m not going to agree with anyone on every single point.

I agree with an awful lot of what he and Mick Lynch say. Definitely supportive of them and think in the main they’re doing a great job. I disagree with Mick Lynch on Brexit. I disagree with Ed Dempsey’s comments in that video on the EDL, racial equality and liberals. But not because of...

If that wasn’t Labour, then there is no Labour. Only the one in your imagination.

The liberals are the real fascists, right?

Always makes me laugh when the Corbynistas use quotations on "Labour" as if only they know what Labour really is, and the Labour voters who delivered 3 landslide election victories on the spin are "Neolibs/ capitalists / Sun readers" or whatever, lol. Labour won 3 landslides in a row and made...

Or course I'm in favour of all of those things in a perfect world! Who doesn't like cake?! If everyone in the country got an 11% pay rise tomorrow, what do you think would happen to inflation? If inflation went even higher, what do you think would happen then? The poorest people would suffer...

Mate have you actually watched that video? Because it plays very much like a smear campaign against liberals!.. Brushes off the "bigotry" of the EDL as if it's a minor footnote, and goes on to suggest the far-right isn't the real enemy, liberals are! I don't give a flying fuck how many photos...

No, there's no false narrative. A protest vote for the Communist Party, or some other far left party instead of Labour at the next election only increases the chances of getting another 5 years of the Tories. It's a toys out of the pram move.

No, the UK electorate will not be dragged from the right to the far left in one fell swoop. If the last 12 years have taught us anything, it's taught us that. By the looks of the polls, they are eager to be dragged back to the middle though. From there they can be nudged left...

I always get in the longest queue at the Supermarket.

Well saying “fuck em” is essentially saying “fuck em” to the poorest and most vulnerable members of society in the name of throwing your toys out of the pram. Whatever your ideals are, if you’re on the left my guess is you want a decent living wage, the right to strike, the right to protest, a...

I think Starmer is quite wise to keep his counsel until he knows who he’s going to be running against. It reminds me of an old football anecdote. Mourinho and Pep were asked if you had a Champions League Final tomorrow, what would be your perfect team. Mourinho said: compact, narrow back 4, a...

Here’s a thought.. Unite Labour and the left to get the Tories out and decimate them in Parliament. Once Labour are in power, try to move the party to the left, or launch a new party of the left as an opposition to Labour. That movement would have a far higher chance of success if there was...

Possibly, who knows? The only thing I'm arsed about now is getting these cunts out.

You're getting into semantics about what's considered far left. If you class yourself as someone who tends towards Communist ideology, then it's pretty likely your definition of what you consider to be far left or centrist is very different from the electorate's definition. I'm loosely using...

Labour tried going further to the left with Gordon Brown, Ed Miliband and Jeremy Corbyn as leaders, and got rejected by the electorate each time. I think Momentum did what you are suggesting, but from inside the Labour party. It succeeded in dragging the party left, but the electorate just...

That is the two choices I believe exist, because if the last 40 years has taught us anything, it's that the UK electorate will only elect a centre left Labour government, or the Tories. Even if I wanted a far-left Labour PM, it's not a choice because the electorate won't elect them. I...

We paid £100m for Grealish and had to give him game time...?

Think Alvarez is the only match fit player in the squad
