Oh dear, will the Labour Party ever cease to be entertainment?
So Diane Abbott says Keir Starmer has to go if Labour lose the Batley and Spen (no, i've never heard of Spen either) by-election to the Tories.
Did she ever stop to think that Labour might do better if she, for one, was gone?
Keir Starmer is the least of Labour's problems - and he's a big enough one. This Labour lot surely do live in some kind of super-isolated bubble. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

You haven't heard of the Spen Valley - famous only for its cyclepath because the rest of it is a shit-hole in comparison? Shame on you
Ms Abbott has clearly smelled some coffee and senses that Kier Starmer is on his way out. She is positioning herself with the far-left once more in an attempt to gain a Shadow Cabinet seat, probably Chancellor of the Exchequer because No.11 gets a free cat... ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

Well, if they don't win that by-election when invoking the loving memories of dear departed and posthumously honorary BAME Jo, they are certainly in doo doo strasser. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

It does seem to be their speciality these days. I mean, I can't think what else they could do to ensure being losers more than they are doing.

I was listening to the Murican/UK comedic Rich Hall this afternoon.
He was describing the british as he would to fellow Muricans.
Described J. Corbyn as a man that, 'looked like the last fcuking drumstick in a bucket of KFC'.

Back to the question in the thread title:
Keir Starmer needs to end Labour’s civil war
An article as partisan as it is depressing... if you're a Labour supporter or anyone who believes Parliament deserves a credible opposition party
The internal politics are described as "a warzone" and that's only outpaced by the dwindling money reserves. Not good. ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Since the Labour Party is going though a period of such unpopularity, I think now would be a good time for it to split into its various factions as separate parties.
Might as well have a British Woke Party, let that stuff stand on its own merits (or lack thereof).
Let's have a Rejoin the EU Party (offices in Islington). Or that group could all just migrate to the Lib Dems (if they still exist).
And the traditional Labourites (if there are any left in the party) can have their own party, within which they can figure out if they're still relevant in the modern world (they might be, but I think they need to reassert their case, cos I for one don't really see it right now). Or is that what George Galloway is?
Wouldn't surprise me if the Conservative Party ended up splitting before long either, the way things are going.
Perhaps they're all just irrelevant now, and we do need new parties with fresh ideologies to go forwards into the Brave New World future. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

How I would love there to be a party that isn't hampered by institutionalised dogma.
If we need immigration, we have immigration as we need it. If we don't need immigration we curtail immigration and with out the tag 'racist' being slandered right left or centre.
If there is a need to renationalise something, railways say, we do it because it's necessary, not because it's party dogma and vise versa.
If we, the country, haven't got the money to do something, it doesn't happen because, same as people can't live on tick, neither can a country. Once we have paid off our debts, we will have much more to spend on important things like me.
etc. etc.
Will never happen though. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

Neoliberalism has rendered politics irrelevant.
Right wing politics allows and supports neoliberalism.
I'm pretty sure Corbyn's Labour manifesto brought quite a large subset of fresh ideas. Remember 'communist broadband'? Or the national investment bank? Or just plain old garden variety investment in communities? |
No, never heard the term "communist broadband" before. What was that?
What kind of communities do you think we should be investing in? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
