Well certainly not by James Callaghan, Michael Foot, Neil Kinnock or John Smith!!! Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

Yes, Corbyn is a genuine nightmare option but the more I try to reason it out, I cannot have much more faith in Johnson. Throw in what is going with this stitch-up of the LFB over Grenfal where their only 'crime' was actually basing their response on the idea that the cladding was truly as flameproof as it was claimed (and I have no real dog in this fight. No family or friends as firemen, just the notion that I know a stitch-up when I see one) and my disgust for our entire system of Governance grows by the hour. I want a Johnson majority simply for the fact that it is the only one that offers any real chances of a credible Brexit happening. But beyond that? No. We need a revolution in terms of how this country is run. Because as it is, simply not fit for purpose. The labour manifesto of 2017 was the reason for their unexpected success, but on inspection it is far removed from revolution. People paying 3% more tax on incomes over 80k is not even Blairite. So lets have revolution this time please or at least a pretend one. Johnson credible? M it is 'do or die' day, glad you are not 'dead in a ditch'**.

Look, I'm obviously on the right but even so I like some of Corbyn's policies....there are aspects of the far left that I respect....the parts that are honest. However, anyone with reason who watched the Labour conference this summer must have felt forced fed with fruitcake. A four-day week within 10 years? One which would have an average of 32 hours and come with no loss of pay? Fruitcake fantasy. They think we can get to net zero carbon emissions by 2030 without ruining the economy….All while apparently giving extra time off for menopausal women. Fruitcake fantasy. Uncontrolled immigration, free access to the NHS for the whole world, release all detainees, votes for anyone, from anywhere, with welfare benefits for everyone who makes it across the channel. Fruitcake with extra fruitcake. They worry and fear monger about the Tories and the NHS, which is fundamentally a funding problem yet have apparently no issues with putting Corbyn and co in charge of Trident and Britain’s contribution to NATO…..NATO, an institution, which he sees as a tool of western imperialism. Labour, run by Corbyn, aren’t a serious political force, they are more like a protest group, a load of NGOs, who think that throwing other people’s money at problems will solve them. If they actually got in it would resemble a collection of sixth form commies holding the reigns of power. In some sense it would fit with my love of the absurd, but after a month the amusement would wear off. Edited by Stirlingsays (31 Oct 2019 11.04am) 'Who are you and how did you get in here?

The sheer audacity of Corbyn to talk about people's this and people's that when he has spent the last three years denying the people what they voted for. And now he says we must trust the people in a second referendum. What an utter scumbag. I'm going to find it hard to stay calm through this.

It's rumoured locally that after the Halloween party tonight in our local that a group of public spirited folk are preparing to search the neighbourhood. They are taking the defibrillator with them. They aren't looking for the traditional bad spirits, ghosts or ghoulies but a very specific and particularly nasty and dangerous one. They will be searching the ditches looking for PMs about to expire as, much as some think he might deserve his comeuppance, it is thought he as cannot really be held responsible for being a prat, he ought to be saved so he can face the mirth of the electorate. Cue cartoons of Johnson dressed as Worzel Guumidge. For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.
