Well it would be a bit silly to try and drag Corbyn out from under a bus and get him to stand again. I'm a realist, some compromise needs to be made to salvage a lot of good work that he and McDonnell did in terms of the manifesto. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Ian Davidson would be an excellent shout, imo.How about Lord Mike "Firestarter" Watson? If he had still been in the Labour Party - Eric Joyce? I think there's a theme I'm going with . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BawWatchin Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Labour need to clear out the Israeli lobbyist benefactors from their party. They don’t represent the people of the UK and will continue to sabotage Labours chances of winning every single election until they re embrace Toryism. Just look at the names of those who were sticking the knife into Corbyn at any and every opportunity throughout the election. Every single one of them have links to Israel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Emily Thornberry recorded an interview with Laura Knuessberg in September where she preemptively knifed Corbyn in the back for not being outright Remain. An idiot with no loyalty. Caroline Flint has done us all a favour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t surprise me that if it were adopted as such but then jettisoned when they get back into power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will simply exacerbate the divisions between branch party loyalists and more analytical, open minded members. I can see the Labour Party membership in Scotland taking a hit over the next 12 to 18 months. I hope similar minded people in the SNP will offer the hand of friendship to those disillusioned by SLab’s close minded approach. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 At least you can’t accuse those members pushing to adopt a more neutral/ pro-indy stance of doing it cynically. Nobody would waste their time on this nonsense if they weren’t committed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
