General Election 2017 | Cabinet reshuffle: Hunt re-appointed Health Secretary for record third time
- Thread starter altodevil
- Start date
Ah yes because nothing sums up Scottish Labour up more than the phrase "Fully embraced Corbyn since he took over the party." It is practically their slogan.
Which specific tax? It's late and my brain functioning at 50%.
Andy Slaughter's red pill has seduced me.Corbyn had a -52 rating up there at the last check, -42 among 2015 scottish Labour voters.
The one Labour are proposing - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2017-39910293Which specific tax? It's late and my brain functioning at 50%.
Well, if Brexit doesn't kill the City (and 12% of GDP), that will.
So presumably the leadership being openly anti-Corbyn has seen their vote share absolutely sky-rocket?
I've just been reading some of the profiles of the local candidates, and it is rather disappointing to see the utter lack of attention given to issues. In the case of the Lib Dems for instance, a genuine and enticing local pitch might've helped to overcome their national position on Brexit.
This has occurred to me too, although i suppose that the most susceptible constituencies will be those with the largest majorities. And while Corbyn's cohorts are more energised than they have been in months, does he risk piling on in existing metropolitan strongholds?
Maybe the question we need to ask, is what's happening in Nuneaton? Or other such places.

Seems like pretty shit leadership. I trust there is an PLP approved challenger already set to go and beat Dugdale in order to get the party back?
I'm sure if she suffers a no confidence vote she'd do the honourable thing. Her ratings aren't as bad as Corbyn's but they're still pretty bad.
How bizarre, a year was apparently more than long enough to fix a broken party this side of the border. She's been in the post up there since August 2015 and not a peep?
Well, given she's the 5th full time Scottish Labour leader in ten years, I'm not exactly sure you can accuse them of being unwilling to change.
Seems like the structure of the party and particularly the way candidates are chosen is flawed. But that can't be right because every time one of those 'loony Corbynites' suggests that they're accused of refusing to criticise the leader.
Is it not just that the left votes SNP these days because they fancy independence and the right now actually feels it's okay to vote Tory cause Davidson is sufficiently human for them to get over Thatcher?
I think Labour's an irrelevance, more than a failure, in Scotland. There just isn't room for them.

I agree and said as much earlier.
Dobba's posts are so bloody frustrating to read.
Funny to see the reporting on Robin Hood Tax change now Corbyn has proposed it. Something all liberal groups, the IMF and the EU commission have been discussing for nearly a decade. Suddenly its a commie plot

Also, since when are the ideas of the IMF, EU commission or fringe liberal groups discussed at large in the UK?
This is a General Election and this is Labour's manifesto. Talking about it and criticising it is not a conspiracy.
Labour becoming a pointless party doesn't mean she should get any credit. If Kezia Dugdale wasn't leader you'd find the Tories still in third place. You can't say Ruth is responsible for that, especially since she was exactly the same person when the Tories were crapping the bed every year pre-2015. The media down south seemed to have made her out to be some kind of messiah but she gets regularly clowned in parliament by both SNP and Labour politicians.
Hunt behaving like a coward and running away from reporters questions.
He's handled this whole hacking saga by hiding away. Chances have to be high May will give him the boot in the reshuffle when the elections over.

Immigration mugs though.
Whilst May is more socially conservative than i would like to see in a PM, she could, if true to her pledges, actually introduce some good improvements for the workplace.

Still lacking some flesh on the bone here at present mind.
As for matters Labour - i just saw an new interview where Corbyn makes one of his classic communication cock-ups. It's the ITV one where he's asked if he considers himself if he considers himself to be wealthy. Couldn't answer the flippin question. It should have been a simple 'yes' and move on, yet evolved into protracted issue for no good reason.

Hi there.Dobba's posts are so bloody frustrating to read.
It is a bit odd that this hasn't led to the endless jokes about not knowing figures like someone else I can think of. Or complaints that things are uncosted. Or 'Muh Money Tree'.
A free year off unpaid to care for a relative because they've completely gutted the actual services that could do that while you still worked? What a deal!

This journalism lark continues to be an absolute piece of piss.
what an idiot... though no doubt his echo chamber of followers will say the right wing media stitched him up (and she works for the guardian)
Pretty sure they're too busy pointing out the fact he isn't a nurse and that he's working out of choice not because he's 'expected to'. But yes, he's the idiot...
Corbyn's reply about Andrew Murray today is so disingenuous I can't even bother laughing.
you would hope he would stop dropping a bollock on simple questions though so his worshipers could try and turn around his approval ratings rather than moping up his mess? - or at least make it so that he is less disliked than the UKIP leader?
How many working people can afford a year off to take care of relatives? Something for the rich disguised as something for the poor. Like help to buy

He'd have a much easier time of it if he only had to parrot a 3 word phrase and sit back while the billionaires use their propaganda machines to churn out a win.
It's Andrew Murray? Blimey when I heard there was a communist running the campaign I thought it was Mandelson.
Just admitting you were wrong would probably have been easier, sun.

the man clearly has a history of own goals detracting from his message down to his own utter utter incompetence
Be fair, the man is both a MP and working as a nurse in his spare time. But hey good job on not 'detracting from his message' by spouting the same old shit.the man clearly has a history of own goals detracting from his message down to his own utter utter incompetence
Also I just remembered that you're voting for Tim Farron's Lib Dems while complaining about leadership incompetence.
I mean, he's a man in his late fifties who stopped being in the Communist party to join Labour last year, having said in 2015 that he'd be unable to do so because he's too firm in his communist principles. I think Mandelson was one in the 70s?
