The Labour Party

Not a big fan of pasting tweets in threads but this is so on point.

Apparently Harriet Harman’s constituency party have passed a motion warning her not to stand as Speaker. They want a candidate who will pursue radical socialist policies.

Quite right too. The Speaker’s post clearly doesn’t carry any clout

Whilst I quite admire Harman, I cant see her pursuing radical Socialist polices.

He won't whip on this come the referendum.

He'll allow MPs to campaign as they see fit, so the likes of Emily Thornberry will campaign for remain, Stephen Kinnock for the deal, and his political fortunes and that of a Labour government will not hang in the balance.

This position will not alienate the mass of "thinking" leavers and will distinguish Labour from the two extremes.

The Tories and Liberals are the extremists when it comes to Brexit with Jezz now occupying the centrist ground.
Who'd have thought it?
Brexit has turned UK politics on it's head.

She is the perfect canndidate - has zero affiliation with any of teh big parties.

Quelle surpise.

It's just the ludicrous lack of objectivity from some of you lot which is amusing:

Anything Corbyn says (most of which is bollocks) = great words of wisdom.

Anything a Tory says (any Tory, and even if it happens to be true) = evil lies

It's pathetic to be honest.

Corbyn under pressure as satisfaction rating sinks

Rather sleep with him than Thatcher, May, Rudd, Mcvey or any of the other cold hearted Tory bitches

Notice you didn’t include Priti Patel there, hey, Rasc.

Priti and Russ

Tom Watson has not been abolished quite yet

The **** need more than abolishing, should have been expelled years ago.

He's hated by many in the Labour Party more than they hate the Tories - fruit loops

 

[urban genie]

No he isn't, though he has been disliked for over a decade by many in the party

Broad church and all that

It would be the longest post in the history of BM if I included every tory I dislike :)

No, he is disliked less than the Tories.

subtle difference

is 'disliked' quite the word?

 

[Rascal]

Compared to the Tories yes it is mere dislike.

Ridiculous for Momentum to do this on the eve of a General Election. Labour don’t half shoot themselves in the foot sometimes.

To be fair though, Watson has been asking for it

Ok - so the Tories plot against a PM elected by the UK electorate and get her to resign and then have a tiny minority of the electorate install her hapless replacement. He then removes the whip from 20 or so MP's who don't agree with his view and plunges his party into a minority even with 10 bought in votes.

Then Labour through whatever reason seeks to - via party rules - to disown one official because he espouses views that do not chime with the party line yet somehow this is a signal of the far left influence yet the former isn't the far right - PMSL at that conclusion

The usual suspects will be along soon to proclaim its the malign influence of the Marxists.

They wont understand that Watson has been actively plotting against the leader and he has alienated vast swathes of the most important people in the Labour party, that being the members.
