Probably most of the country will share your view, but somehow I doubt it will happen. We have all seen quite depressing examples of these fanatics utterly incapable of looking at themselves, preferring to blame Brexit and indeed anything other than their own policies. They are fanatics, and...

Perhaps the thousands who did throw their lot in, as you put it, actually wanted change in their communities, as they too might place society as a priority?

life can indeed be rough at times, but do try to keep going, and let's all hope for the best outcome.

I have never ever heard of this and quite frankly, would put far more credence on this if it came form anyone but you. Right-wingers attending Union meetings trying to keep left wingers out - that really would be a first.

Yes, that is true, and a more centrist approach will surely pay dividends for them in the future, if that is the outcome. I think on this occasion it is the sheer scale of the reversal of Labour's fortunes which has prompted such claims, though you are right, in that all the parties have in the...

[/B] Precisely. I could not have put it better myself. Now look at my post to which you are responding, when I wrote that an (neutral on Brexit) agenda was being pushed forward which was at odds with the not only the poor old Blairites, but also punters living in traditional Labour heartlands...

Given the nature of your post, might it be you who needs to get over it?

Reasonable question - the reality is that they know full well that what they want does not resonate with the electorate, so they adopt the classic hard-left strategy of trying to gain control of a much larger organisation by filling vital posts, which then gives them influence totally out of...

[/B] All very fine in theory, and doubtless that will satisfy you, but as we both know the membership is only likely to come to one conclusion. It is blatant nonsense to claim that the membership will decide, as if there would be some sort of open discussion, with the membership amenable to...

But not the mass of labour voters, as has been demonstrated to those prepared to listen and take remedial action. The membership consists of a small proportion of Labour supporters, as you well know. That is the problem - the membership want to dictate policies and actions that the majority of...

Poor old Blairites are getting it again! Why are you asking these absurdly simplistic questions?

Most folk would have resigned now and let matters develop, but not our Jezza, who will campaign, as he loves to do, to ensure that his cronies stay in power, even if it flies in the face of public opinion.

So the membership will not be attracted to Momentum candidates -now that really is a first. So you are against monarchical and continued power, yet only recently stated that Blairites should get their just deserts on de-selection, so that the "correct" views can prevail. It sounds rather like...

You remind me of the chap interviewed on BBC last night in Leeds, at about 2.30 am, when even Andrew Neil gave up, as he utterly refused to accept that anything was wrong with Corbyn or Labour. The Blairites are totally to blame, aren't they? Anyway, I am not bothered, and as I wrote; if you and...

Coupled with your post of a couple of days ago, when you said that de-selection would ensure the "right" candidate ie a momentum stooge is put forward, you now lament the refusal to "take action" against those who dare to take another line; Sounds frighteningly like East Germany to me, and...

Frightening. Thank goodness, they are nowhere near the dosh.

Ok, that is your view, but even with PR do you really think that the gravy train element will be replaced. It would surely be a different lot but still desperate to hang on to their large salaries and pay-outs.

The many did not, however, see it that way. And your assertion that Corbyn seemingly had nothing to do with the shambles, puts you in a minority of one. Yes, no doubt some (many?) folk had their doubts about the incoming PM, but they clearly decided that Corby was simply unelectable.

Lovely picture of them both. We had our lab done and he too cried a few hours afterwards. I think it was simply a bit of pain once the jab wore off, but by the next morning, he was perfectly OK. The Op was meant to calm him down, but he is still territorial. . . You posted this yesterday so...

In my time in Germany, I met loads of Danes, who so often said that Denmark is great if you are ill and/or old. I am not so sure that working tax -payers there are as deliriously happy as you suggest.
