Not working for me.

What are you wittering on about you doddering fool. Lets be clear - and you've been told before Les- the 2017 Labour Manifesto explicitly rejected no deal. Its ambition was always to secure a deal that protected manufacturing jobs dependent on just-in-time production as well as worker and environmental standards. Lets also be clear: leaving the EU is not the only principle that matters to Corbyn. Given the huge portfolio and policy levers that come with being PM -health, education, fiscal policy and public expenditure, monetary policy, income tax, corporation tax and capital gains tax, pensions, welfare, local government, national policing and criminal justice, media regulation etc- I suspect its pretty much secondary. Whether you agree with them or not, there is no contradiction between power and principles (quite the opposite) if it enables Corbyn to tackle inequality and poverty, invest in public services and reshape the economy. There's a big world out there pal - something which is admittedly difficult for you to compute given your blinkered, one track obsession with Brexit.

From what I recall the agreement doesn’t include patient data.

Would be great if it took off. Much better third line. I like to think I’ll be splitting royalties with Turkish for this one.

Is she the one who was suspended for using the n-word? Sorry that’s Anne-Marie Morris, candidate for Newton Abbot. All much of a muchness

Hello Westie. Nice to have you back pal. I thought you had gone into hiding quicker than bojo at the mention of brillo

Edit

These debates ultimately make little difference. You can probably car crash in them -hence why Johnson has been straightbatting it; but they won’t move the dial if you’re trying to make up political ground. Just think of Nick Clegg in 2010 when everybody agreed he had stormed the leadership debates, was lauded as a breath of fresh air, some commentators even calling his performances Churchillian. This was at a time when the role of televised debates was new in British politics, so the electorate was less cynical about their value and more likely to put weight on them. Where did Cleggy’s “Churchillian performances” get him? Five fewer seats than in 2005 (and a measly 1% increase in the vote share).

Which was crude, tokenistic and cynical - then again you would rate the pivot because antisemitism is simply a political football for c**ts like you.

Johnson’s camp confirms he’s bottling the Neil interview. Per a senior Conservative source “ The public are fed up with interviews that are all about the interviewer and endless interruptions. The format is tired and broken and needs to change if it is to start engaging and informing the public again.” Won’t be long till some chumps swing behind and start parroting this line.

So Tommy Robinson is endorsing Boris Johnson's Conservatives while former Conservative leader Sir John Major isn’t. #draintheswamp

A bit wet but Ed Davey would have been a much better leader of the Lib Dems than Jo Swinson.

Unfortunately, some of these claims do more harm than good. They make it easy for some to discredit the rest of the submission and what are some very legitimate and serious allegations. 25.2 is a case in point. J.A. Hobson's Imperialism is definitely of its time so full of unsavoury views from a modern perspective (as many historical works are) but the book cannot simply be reduced to them. It is still viewed as an influential piece of work on the dynamics of imperialism and on the syllabus of history courses up and down the country.

The footballing messiah (to some at least) that is Marco Silva has got the sack.

And I find all antisemitic behaviour and language offensive, whichever side it occurs on, whether in this country or any other part of the world.

You said she is confused. Leaving aside your dubious and disingenuous framing, you may think that “a vote to reverse the referendum result” would cause chaos; but she would argue that the current course the country is on is likely to cause more chaos. You may disagree with that statement (fair enough) but that doesn’t mean it’s confused - except that is you inhabit a blinkered cult that denies the complexity and trade offs of Brexit. Again you’re loose with language and caught with your pants down

Don’t agree with all of this but it’s pretty clear that many on here couldn’t care less about the Jewish community.

It’s not confused pal. She sincerely believes that in terms of ensuring the country’s long-term stability the benefits from stopping Brexit outweigh the costs of a second referendum. On a Scottish referendum, she takes the opposite position. The two positions are not inconsistent, not least because the economic and political implications of Brexit and the UK’s relationship with the EU are not the same as Scottish independence. The only one who is confused is you Les. I guess belonging to a cult will do that to you though

It’s not an either-or. There are some vile individuals in the Labour Party who have indulged in longstanding antisemitic tropes and prejudices. Others are utterly convinced in the legitimacy of their cause but don’t know -and a smaller number frankly don’t care- where the boundary between support for the Palestinians, opposition to Israel’s actions, opposition to Israel itself, Zionism and antisemitism lies. In fairness many British Jews don’t know either and are no more qualified to arbitrate or police that boundary. At the same time there was a huge shift away from Labour under Ed Miliband as the Spectator numbers (and others) pointedly illustrate. He was subject to some shocking, cynical and hysterical slurs from the Jewish community over his criticism of the Israeli government. To be clear this is not a smoking gun; nor does it excuse the Labour Party’s painfully slow, unsatisfactory handling of antisemitism cases (though that is arguably a symptom of an institution on the defensive rather than a campaign against Jews per se - either way it’s of no comfort to those involved). But it is relevant context for unpacking some of the claims and counterclaims made about Labour and is conveniently forgotten by many.

Bednarek playing everyone onside was also culpable for their goal.

Result more important than the performance when you’re playing sides at the bottom. The Arsenal and Norwich fixtures came at the right time in that they both like to play out from the back (to the point of being cavalier) which obviously suited the press. Newcastle away on a Sunday will be a more interesting test, not least of RH’s powers of motivation and our focus.

Fresh legs and the ability to press and chase balls. More important presumably than having a natural goalscorer on the pitch. Ralph tends to do a lot of like-for-like subs for that reason.
