Starmer's vision quest

[albion]

Says he previously gave money to stop Corbyn.

Yet it is hard to see how the public finances could have been worse if we had ended up with Corbyn.

Cool, another Tory supports Labour, further blurring the lines for some folks.

 

[albion]

The last elected Labour Prime Minister blurred too

I've seen some of Geoff Norcott's stuff and he's pretty good.

These things are all relative.

Jackie Mason, tho.

Can someone explain in which reality makes sense to go easy on Farage?

Like the bloody PSOE sellouts in Spain in the 1930s.

Can someone explain in which reality makes sense to go easy on Farage?

Because it will make no difference

That's report is nuts. Sending your candidate to help out in another constituency instead of campaigning in his own? Regardless of it being an unwinnable seat, that's treating both party workers and Labour voters in Clacton with contempt. Lots of candidates campaign enthusiastically in unwinnable seats because it's not just about that seat. I admire anybody prepared to go round knocking on doorsteps to get their message across. Why would you even bother having a Clacton Labour party in that case?
