The SNP and Labour are competing for the same votes so are unlikely to work together. This to me just doesn't make any sense, surely if they're competing for the same votes their ideals are (roughly) the same,therefore working together for (roughly) the same aims, rather than team up with the Torys who are idealogicaly on another planet, makes it easier to achieve these goals. The reality is that it's Union before principles. Edited July 7, 2018 by jakedee 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Plenty of Labour brass hate the SNP more than they do the Conservatives. I don’t know if it’s about the union so much as they see the SNP as stealing their career options. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the Union,there is no career option,therefore they are linked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I would say the primary point of Labour at the moment is to end austerity and build a progressive society fit for the challenges of the 21st century. The secondary point is to cause Nick Cohen to completely lose his mind to the point where he's writing his Observer column with jobby crayons. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jul/07/labour-antisemitism-jeremy-corbyn?CMP=share_btn_tw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakedee Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 And what happened after that?Does it matter? Austerity carried on,without an objection from the Party you say should be ending it, they had their chance then and made their decision,and so it continues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened was that Corbyn stood in the leadership election as an anti austerity candidate and won easily. And in 2017 Labour published a manifesto which if implemented would end austerity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter, Corbyn didn't win the election, and even if he had, are you sure he could rely on his PLP to back him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
