Off Topic Politics Thread

Fair enough.

 

particularly poignant for no.7 because at certain times just after he’s applied finished doing his hair, it can have some bits around the edges that resemble that person’s hair... eh no.7??

 

I have absolutely no idea what’s going on this morning, other than not being able to delete a post made in error!

What I meant to answer was “Bloody hell. Need to read properly before replying. Sorry, Farked - put it down to senility and complete hatred of the current incumbent at No 10. Thanks for putting me right, Jabs. I shall shut up now .....”

I SHALL shut up now .....

 

This is quite informative Chilco

This is a decent listen as it highlights why Corbyn wanted to get across his point that the level of anti semitism was overstated.
He didn’t deny that it existed, within the Labour Party, and if 0.3% of the membership were investigated, fewer than 2000, it is still too many.
Corbyn made mistakes, possibly the biggest being in not removing from their positions, those charged with carrying out checks on complaints, who deliberately slowed the process down, because they were against him as leader of the party. They weren’t replaced, iirc, until 2019, when the improvements being driven by Corbyn began, as noted in the EHRC report.

 

Don't do dhat Dave, your insightful contributions are valued, if you don't make mistakes you don't make anything.

 

Dave, no problem at all mate. I caught on ( more or less) straightaway when you said rich man' s son. I don't know about Corbyn's background, I had assumed lower middle class.

 

Another good piece of information, which includes concerns that 42 of the 70 case studies showed “unfairness towards the respondent”, namely Corbyn.

There are two separate issues here. Firstly, has Corbyn been treated unfairly? My view is that he has but there was a big measure of contributary negligence on his part. Secondly, and this links to the first part, he is a bloody awful politician. He is pig headed, and was the cause of Brexit by not doing what he should have done and appealed to Labour supporters to vote Remain. His reason for doing this is that, like McClusky, he is an enthusiastic Leaver.

 

Pfeffel speech delayed. Being given strong black coffee and a good talking to by Cummings.

 

I don’t know why Dom doesn’t just take over himself...

 

Over 2 hours late........he does love winding people up......he has to go.

 

And there's me thinking he already had...

 

Yes, but he may as well do the briefings to avoid Boris forgetting his lines.

 

I **** you not the rumour is they are planning to get around this by not calling it a lockdown.
