He needs a little encouragement every now and then
That’s not a flip flop
Labour set out a number of tests at the 2018 party conference as to how it would back a second referendum
Those tests were fulfilled
It now backs a second referendum
That seems pretty coherent
It has evolved its policy as the facts of the Brexit negotiations changed
That has proved to be sensible policy - and I was not always on board with it, it was at times highly frustrating, but in the end it was the right policy
The Liberal Demorats were the party of a second referendum - now they aren’t - they suddenly changed to being the party of revoking Article 50
Now, could you tell me, is that a flip flop?
The Tories were the party of the Union
Now they are the party of breaking up the Union
Could you perhaps tell me whether that is a flip flop or not
Nope. Not at all.
So Boris gets away with it but Corbyn is the devil. I see
As the forums foremost capitalist and socialist I can think both Boris and Jeremy are equally inept
Here’s a concrete example of anti-Semitism in British politics by Michael Gove
Gove uses the age old anti-Semitic trope of automatically conflating all Jews with Israel, that the views of the Israeli government represent Jews in Britain
That is anti-Semitism 101
Now, where’s the condemnation from the usual sources that smear Corbyn
Oh yeah, nowhere, that’s where
Because Gove is pro-Israel, and that’s what this is about
Do you agree @Julio_Geordio
Both are terrible politicians and if Labour had anyone halfway decent they’d be kicking the Tories up and down the parliament.
Michael Gove is an absolute cunt and the fact that a party led by himself, Mogg and Boris lead Corbyn in the polls only amplifies my point that Corbs is dragging labour down
Corbyn is fantastic.
It’s only crackpots like Rachel from Countdown and @Julio_Geordio who peddle those lazy anti semitic lies.
Jezza Jezza Jezza.
Two very good looking crackpots to be fair
Yet your ire is exclusively directed at Corbyn. Terrible politicians get elected because people believe the lies they are told. Stop believing the lies you are being told
Opening post of the thread. Up your game mate.
Corbyn’s Labour secured the highest Labour vote since 1997 in 2017
The biggest problem with UK politics is not a difficult one to spot
UK media is overwhelmingly right-wing and corporate and much of it has adopted the actual propaganda tactics of fascists in a manner reminiscent of the far right in the US and in Russia
That was as true under Ed Milband as it was under Corbyn
It would be true were anybody else Labour leader as well
Milband was and is a moderate social democrat
Can you explain why Labour lost so badly under him
That’s the Jewish Ed Miliband by the way, amazing how he ended up leader of the party on a grass roots vote given that it’s apparently so anti-Semitic
Look beyond the lies bro
Because he couldn’t eat a sandwich
Not once has any supposed anti-anti-Semite here condemned any of the many concrete cases of anti-Semitism from Tories or Republicans in the US
They have no ability to look beyond the lies and come out of their football supporter mindset
Feeble minds make easy fodder
I would like to take this opportunity to condemn any and all cases of anti-Semitism from Tories or Republicans in the US
Now mate
I’m playing a long game here.
