So flying the flag of St. George is the action of flag waving simpletons. Labour should use that when fighting the next election, when the Tories increase their majority by another 100 or so, we’ll get the joy of hearing Corbyn in a frock saying that they’ve won the arguments.If you are infering to the comments made on flag waving simpletons then she is guilty but lets not forget what our newly elected PM said about Liverpool
Johnson prompted widespread indignation in the city in 2004 when the Spectator accused the city of wallowing in “victim status” over the murder of” Ken Bigley in Iraq and the 1989 Hillsborough football stadium disaster.
and then
Boris Johnson described the children of single mothers as “ill-raised, ignorant, aggressive and illegitimate” in a newly unearthed article which Labour has claimed shows the prime minister’s “dark-age” attitudes towards women.
If that's not sneering then I don't know what is. The point is the general public forget all this otherwise Johnson wouldn't be PM would he?
But forgive me for stating obvious but just because you don't like doesn't mean that the general public won't ? I can't stand Johnson but he is our PM but the majority of the general public do because they have just voted him in on a landslide.
Well she called an entire northern constituency thick for supporting Brexit.
Even as someone who thinks Brexit is a bad idea, it’s an appalling thing to say and the type of mindset that lost the referendum and that then lost the General Election.
Nope just my opinion, but I am afraid to say its a pretty common opinion Mr Thornberry!

And Johnson called muslims letter boxes and bank robbers, and yet still muslims voted for him. It is appalling I agree but back in the day it would have mattered we are in different times we have Trump and mini Trump nobody gives a fuck!
All very true mate but if Labour want to challenge again who I like is more important than who you do just by the sheer fact they have you in the bag.
The lefter leaning section of Labour have a pretty simple choice to make either stick on principle and do no good or move rightward and gradually drag people to the left.
No mate, you need to listen to the electorate,Seriously have a word with yourself, of course the Tories will use that just like Labour used tanked topped bum boys, piccaninnies with water melon smiles, single mothers and Liverpool fans (I could go on) You really don't get it do you ? If there is one lesson we have learned is that Its irrelevant mate she made a crass comment or maybe even a few more nobody cares because she has a strong character who will brush it off and the general public as has. Listening to her the other day on the Radio she has her head screwed on she is ruthless and will move things on if selected as party leader.
That is the big question but first and foremost we need a strong electable candidate you need a ruthless **** who isn't afraid to make changes, general elections are about personality first policies afterwards hence where we are now. Personally I would junk this idea of outsourcing policy to the party members it doesn't work. By all means consult, listen and gather consensus but as Emily said Labour needs a clear strategy from day 1 and sticks with that. A major faults of Corbyn is that he changed his Brexit strategy in 2019 all he had to say was he would honour the vote just like in 2017 and he could have reduced the margin of defeat significantly.
