Hilary Benn Sacked From The Shadow Cabinet - wider political debate

[1966efc]

No idea what she got up to in 2010 ... had long since left her patch & into Highbury to become part of Corbyn's constituency. A mate of mine taught her lad at a place called Cit of London Freeman's School. He used to hide away from her on parents evenings.

At least she's open about her inconsistencies. The fragrant Emily Thornberry is a bit quieter about her duplicitous behaviour at the time of her selection.

She goin' on about how she feared her kid would 'fall in with black gangs' if he went to state school; which is what you mentioned

And how "West Indian mothers would 'go to the wall' for their kids".

Neil does a very good job on it...

Self-serving, sanctimonious, hypocritical racist that it is.

Got to agree.

I'm just hoping someone from the local Islington paper resurrects the story on Emily. Now there's a house of cards that needs toppling.

Thornberry?

Another one. Entitled, snobby mare.

Thornberry?

Another one. Entitled, snobby mare.

Full of mumsy charm, warmly hospitable. Would have have eaten her grandmother's nipples without salt to get the candidacy for that seat.

[Mrk]

It just keeps getting worse and worse for Corbyn. I don't think he can survive this

 

[Blue 1]

Did you see Corybn jib a PLP meeting to attend a rally against his own MP's!?

No, he attended the PLP meeting.

 

[summerisle]

No, he attended the PLP meeting.

Didn't go to well.

"Jeremy Corbyn is prepared to call for an investigation into Tony Blair for alleged war crimes during the Iraq War, according to reports.

The Chilcot Inquiry into conflict will be released on 6 July this year after years of analysing evidence about how the Government acted in the run-up to and during the conflict.

During the Labour leadership election Mr Corbyn said he was convinced the Iraq War was illegal and that anyone who had committed a crime should be put on trial.

Tony Blair set to be savaged in ‘absolutely brutal’ Chilcot verdict
“If [Tony Blair has] committed a war crime, yes. Everyone who's committed a war crime should be [charged],” he said.

“I think it was an illegal war, I'm confident about that, indeed Kofi Annan confirmed it was an illegal war, and therefore he has to explain to that.

“Is he going to be tried for it, I don't know. Could he be tried for it? Possibly.”

The Daily Telegraph newspaper says a Labour spokesperson confirmed over the weekend that Mr Corbyn stands by his views and will not row back from them". Monday 23 May 2016

This is the real reason they are trying to oust Corbyn before 6th July and the publication of the Chilcott report. The plotters are working overtime to prevent Corbyn from calling Blair a war criminal, due to an illegal war, in Parliament. When he will have a lot of time as the leader of the opposition to talk about the war in Iraq and the weapons of mass destruction Blair lie.

Jermey Corbyn in a classic diversionary tactic to try and gain some 'momentum' again.

Rarely do I ever post on this forum in any form of solemnity, I am of the belief that as a football forum this is a solace for many like me away from the ordinariness of 21st century life - and that includes politics.

However, the current political situation that our country currently finds itself in concerns me massively. Historians will look back at this time as not the time of the uprising of the working class of the nation, but of the time where everyone was betrayed by promises of grander - only to be left in a much worse position of which they found themselves in.

As we see the pound plunge, we’re also going to see the prices of everyday commodities rise, wages stagnate and pensions losing value. This is a misguided working class revolt against itself. People who voted leave will feel lied to after being told to ignore the warnings of “project fear” - with an impending recession that will threaten many thousand jobs, the provision of key public services and other problems.

Thursday’s referendum shifted the political landscape of this country. We have seen a lot of political maneuvering, but amid this tumultuous time we have failed to see a coherent response of how the UK will address the long term challenges ahead.

At a time of which our country needs levels of unification and stability not seen since the second world war coalition 80 years ago, some members of the Labour Party have taken it upon themselves to start war - effectively handing power to the Tories before the words “general election” are ushered from anybodies lips.

Austerity has affected the living standards of all working class people. Was this the fault of the EU, or the choice by our current government? At a time where money is tight, the economic contribution made by migrants should be welcomed with open arms - not disregarded as being somehow lesser than a contribution made by someone born here.

We all know this, and yet the attacks are being diverted from the Conservatives to the Labour Party. The Labour Party did not lose the EU referendum. Jeremy Corbyn did not lose the EU referendum.

David Cameron and George Osborne lost the EU referendum.

As a member of the Labour Party it worried me today to see Yvette Cooper wave a Union Jack around the House of Commons in an attempt to woo UKIP voters, of which turned to Farage’s party as they felt that the Labour Party had somehow let them down.

I’m worried because I feel the only people of which are going to stand up to the right-wing populist anti-immigration stances that some of the electorate adjudged as being key behind their choice for the next government of this country are going to be pushed out by careerist populist morons - such as Ian Murray, Gloria De Piero, Kerry McCarthy, Heidi Alexander and Lord Falconer; Lucy Powell, Lilian Greenwood, Seema Malhotra, Vernon Coaker, Karl Turner, Chris Bryant, Stephen Kinnock, Diana Johnson, Toby Perkins, Anna Turley, Neil Coyle, Jess Phillips, Alex Cunningham, Wayne David and Lisa Nandy.

The Labour Party should be working together to make a positive argument for immigration and outline its vast benefits to this country, even beyond the vast economic contributions to the more sociological improvements we’ve seen - not turn the argument the other way for easy votes.

I’m not saying that everyone that voted Leave is a massive racist either, but I do feel that there are a lot of racists out there that feel that their backward beliefs are somehow vilified with the result of the referendum.

Didn't see many Labour Party banners at the Rally last night. Plenty of Socialiast Workers Party stuff though?

He may as well head up a party called Socialist Party Momentum because that's where his support current is....

The Labour Party and MPs are saying though that he could have been more assertive in his support for the remain camp. As the Leader it must be said that he has not exactly set anything alight. Remember up until he was voted the Leader, he has always been anti Europe and consistently voted against the Labour government when in power.
