    Minsy talks a fair bit of sense. So does Corbyn. It is possible most voters are mugs who won't give Corbyn a fair hearing, like you won't give Mindy a fair hearing. But there are no certainties in contemporary politics. Maybe a left wing labour party can get elected. It's not impossible, because I guarantee the tories are not well loved.

    They're finished in Scotland. With that goes any chance of winning an election as a left wing party, something they haven't been for decades.

    Nigel likes bending over so it's Tory for you.

    We're going to see SNP and Labour fight for the left minded electorate, the SNP are not left of centre imo

    It's silly talking about left and right though, it should be about policy

    Policies are often left or right leaning.

    Do you think the Scottish Labour Party are suddenly about to become Corbynites?

    Haha

    I'm more confident about having a decent political party and I believe it's actually thanks to the SNP and the YES campaigners

    They showed that sometimes you can make enough of racket to enable change

    Will it work two elections in a row?

    Let's hope for a decent PM questions first :-S

    Mindy talks nonsense. He wants this and that but he would rather not have it unless his party is some sort of paragon of virtue slaying the dragons of coporate business and the media because in mindyland those folks are all damm rotters.

    If truth be told I agree with Corbyn on all sorts of things. I also welcome, as ive already said Labours possible.return to being a socialist party. What I am actually saying is that Corbyn will never win them an election and if they dont win elections it doesnt matter how mucj sense you talk you wont be able to change a thing.

    Deary me. You have been banging on about Labour acting like Tories for two days now.

    Didne stop you voting for the ****s though did It?

    Didne stop you jumping on the Tory led No bandwagon though did it?

    Ill ask again, are you member of the labour party?

    You keep missing the point so I have to repeat it

    No it didn't but now, hopefully, I won't have to and I won't feel guilty about it either

    I voted No because of distrust, dislike and disbelief in what was being offered. It had nothing to do with tories for me

    I didn't see you ask before. I'm not a member of anything other than a trade union

    It's hard to tell.

    Most people are not saying the disagree with Corbyn just tgat he is unelectable.

    He is an IRA supporter and he put an IRA supporter in as his shadow Chancellor.

    And that's just for starters.
