Seems fair enough, seeing just how much internal strife, crisis and grief the Anti-Corbyn labour party has inflicted on the leader their own membership selected twice. But he's a union leaders, not a labour MP.

I know he doesn't support Corbyn. But until I know the reason for suspension I can't comment on it. Two schools of thought at the moment Breach of DPA Criticism of McCluskey The trouble is, even if the suspension is valid, the timing makes it look dodgy.

Nobody could surrender at that time as we were not at war.

That's true, but I'm sure Jeremy would already have had the speech written.

The (metaphorical) surrender of appeasement was down to the decidedly non left wing Neville Chamberlain and his ilk...In 1938,Attlee (as Labour leader,and incidentally, still IMHO the best post war PM) was a strong critic of appeasement.

That's true, and Chamberlain was desperately hoping Britain could be spared a war. He trusted Hitler to be reasonable and was wrong. What he did was in good faith and with Britain's interests at heart.

I agree with your post, including Attlee being the best post-war PM, a champion of ordinary British working people - he must be turning in his grave with how the Labour Party has 'progressed'.
We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell] |
