Can I ask, is it ok to be, as I am, a fully paid up member of the Labour Party and believe Corbyn is bad for the party and therefore bad for the nation?

The 'broad church' of Labour seems to have disappeared somewhat since September 2015.

Yes of course you should stay in the party, but not actively campaign against the leader or party and accept the conference decisions in good grace. Equally accept the right of mps such as Chris Williamson to stay in the party too and not be hounded out for alleged support for anti-semitism.

It’s almost like reading the Daily Express. I really can’t be bothered to flog this incredibly dead horse. All my views on the matter can be read here;

And here

https://www.huckmag.com/perspectives/opinion-perspectives/jeremy-corbyn-no-ira-sympathiser/

But as you seem genuinely concerned about people in power and terrorism, so I’m sure you’re deeply concerned about the fact that the Tories have been selling weapons to the head-chopping, terrorism-exporting Saudi tyrants in order to commit their war crimes in Yemem, right?

Yes of course you should stay in the party, but not actively campaign against the leader or party and accept the conference decisions in good grace. Equally accept the right of mps such as Chris Williamson to stay in the party too and not be hounded out for alleged support for anti-semitism.

The postal votes should be opened as the ballot boxes are opened on voting day, why are they even allowed to open them earlier?

Laura K claiming Labour are getting a pumping.... not sure how she would know....

 

[Bulldog]

No I didn't - I said the Blairite LP HQ conspired to shut down the B&H LP when Kyle's cronies were all defeated in an election for the officer board of the local LP - it is a specific accusation - and it is well documented.

The LP needs to selected candidates to support LP policy as decided by LP conference - Kyle does not support those policies.

The LP needs to selected candidates that the local electorate want to vote for. Or you get a Tory government.

Shite like this is exactly why Boris will win tomorrow. But then you won't have to put up with that in Tipperary or wherever the **** you are so you can carry on sitting in your ivory tower pontificating about things you know feck all about and boring NSC to death, while our country goes through a painful No Deal Brexit and loses its NHS. Brilliant. Thanks.

As I said yesterday Labour will already have excuses and blame lined up, it wont be that people dislike Jezza nor his stupid polices being rejected.

That is a type of Corbyn incentive, as he does like to groom them early, I would NEVER vote for Corbyn.

Labour maybe, if they had a likeable cabinet and knew how to handle our cash.
