jmothecat Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Was it cancelled? Corbyn managed to actually nail the Tories on something which is a bit of an ideological shift between Labour and the Tories. He landed a couple of punches for the first time in a while.

NotThePars Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Tbf every time I'm reading something and asking myself "what is this shit?" the answer is always The New Statesman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 It seems a bit odd, the New Statesman I've always thought of as reflective of the wider democratic-left movement, with articles and opinions ranging from the hard-left to the Blairite centrist perspective. It has had a fair share of pro-Corbyn articles, and it is an openly biased publication so I'm not really sure what the protestors are asking for.

Most of the writers I've seen for The New Statesman are pretty openly anti-Corbyn. Helen Lewis is the first name that springs to mind and I'm fairly sure she's the editor.

The reaction from Hothersall is normally about nine on the Richter scale. That's no a bad article Labour should stop indulging its Scottish party and broker a progressive alliance with the SNP Exactly what the difference is in principle between UK nationalism and Scottish nationalism is beyond me. How can support for one patriotism trump another? And independence for Scotland was never about cultural nationalism but democratic nationalism – the right and ability to control your country. When you’ve decided that its impossible to control your country, to make it socially just, while it is tied to whims of the Mail, Murdoch and now May – then the step to independence is a but a small one. Add in Brexit and the prospect of a return to Europe – then what exactly is not to like? For many in Scotland independence and social justice now go hand in hand. If I had a vote in Scotland, I would vote to take a chance and determine my nation's fate, rather than have it settled by the Tory Prime Minister Theresa May in a context set by Rupert Murdoch, the Daily Mail and the demands of the City of London. I would hope for a return to Europe. Looking from the outside, I want Scotland to be as successfully left wing as it can possibly be. Whether in or out the UK, we need a story of success.
