Bully Wee Villa Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Has any party ever rejected defecting MPs? I'm sure it's happened but would be pretty rare. Any party would be mad not to accept the PR nightmare such defections provide for their opponents.

williemillersmoustache Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 PR value far too great to turn down if true and if Keith gave a toss about looking like a tory, his policies wouldn't be fucking identical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scumbags, the lot of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 And now six who won't be voting for them. Nobody would ever say "no, I'd rather you stayed behind to help my opponents". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the f**k do you care. You've bored everyone for long enough with your deranged rants about how shite Labour apparantly are. I get this might be upsetting for you if it takes away the Tories chances of winning the next GE but Jesus christ try and remain consistent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where have I ever said I want the Tories to win the next election. I am consistent in that and also in the fact that Labour are a very poor opposition. So carry on with your Sevco like delusion. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate it's very evident from your posts you support the myth of perpetual Tory rule to further your insecure identity issues and embolden your Nationalist takes. You'd fucking hate it if Labour won the next election. Also Rangers fan is a compliment, I don't know which diddy team you support and I couldn't care less about them, cute that your personality heavy revolves around being a diddy though in both politics and football. Have some more self confidence my man. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's no big deal as many MPs are just lobby fodder and these ones are probably from marginal constituencies but still O, brave new Labour Party that has such people in't.

guinness Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Mick Lynch should be the next Labour leader in my view. At least he would try & help the working man. But a lot of you younger chookies wouldn't get that. How any working class man can vote for the tories is beyond me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G51 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I don't want Mick Lynch to be Labour leader. He's shouty, aggressive and doesn't really seem to understand the rules of the game. Plus he's from Northern England, which means he's racist. And he's a man - it's high time that Labour got the girlboss treatment! I want someone who understands that politics is less about ideals, and more about what's possible. Someone like Rachel Reeves, or Jess Phillips. Dream candidate? Nigella Lawson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or Andy Burnham and Wes Streeting have a square go to decide. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guinness Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 In my view the the labour party aren't shouting enough. A labour leader not defending the unions who founded the labour party are forgetting where they came from. My dog's got more balls than Starmer & he was castrated when he was a pup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the unions would get more support if they were more reasonable in their demands? Asking for record pay increases when we have to balance the books after COVID - selfish much?? The less said about your animal abuse, the better. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
