The Labour Party

Abbott has been treated pretty badly here and I do feel sorry for her, but ultimately she’s been the author of her own downfall by saying such stupid shit in the past.

Hopefully they’ll at least grant her a dignified exit by putting her in the Lords or something. She doesn’t really deserve the full Corbyn banishment treatment.

So she has had the whip restored (just as this parliament is 'dissolving ') is still a member and has been through a selection process ... but they are binning her off anyway? Regardless of your view on Abbott that is up there with sharing a platform with Ken Loach or liking a tweet by the Green Party in terms of control freakery.

Meanwhile ERG brexiteers and Tory donors are welcomed and lobbyists for a foreign state are shithoused into the commons. Bring on the super majority .....
 
I think it's as bad as this:

Abbott is seen as 'spoiling the brand/image.'

That seems to be how these people think. They are out to attract as many Tories as possible and if that means binning left-wingers who stick their head above the parapet, they will.

It's a kind of commercial decision. The sort of thing a supermarket does when it drops a brand because not enough of its customers want it.

It isn't just a commercial decision imo. Martin Forde was right, there is a Hierarchy of racism within the LP
 
Fear not. Liar Johnson says Starmer would be the most dangerous and Left-wing prime minister since the 1970s.

I dont agree. She does damage the brand. And it isnt image. They need to take power now and have a go at it properly. She isnt representative for anything progressive is she? She was a fool really, achieving of nothing but somewhow always there. Not now though. Its natural, they have some momentum now and she isnt part of it

It reflects the sad truth that there's a hierarchy of racism in society. Labour is effectively acknowledging the power of the 'market'.

Let's be honest, we all know that some forms of racism are much more 'acceptable' than others.

Labour is effectively agreeing with that hierarchy then. You only need to look at some of their selections to see that.

Are you saying she's being dumped for a similar reason as Corbyn?

Here's John Mearsheirmer spelling that reason out.

Pretty much.
 
I just don’t think certain parts of the left want the opportunity to have a say in this country, it’s all about ideology and ego. They did very well and took control of the party, lost miserably in the election(s) and are now full out to try and bring Labour down.

If I was them, I’d wait until Labour got in government and then use their influence to ensure they deliver for their people. However, seems they don’t want that, they’d rather sit on the sidelines crying into their bitter.

Nobody gives a fuck what Johnson or any other tory says at this point Vic. But thanks for sharing whilst The Labour Party hierarchy is being discussed on here.


Erm...........
