you don't understand it's a ploy to win the election so he can get on with the real work of supporting billionaires, pigs and landlords

he could at least sometimes offer some insincere lip service ffs! or more like 'KIP service in his case amirite?

Exactly right. Labour in Parliament is a legislative, not a protest party.

I've been assured by Sir Kier they would be ludicrously expensive concentration camps with luxuries like clean drinking water and bigger prison cells than what you'd get in Armley

Earlier this evening, I reluctantly broke the @UKLabour party whip to vote against the #CoronavirusAct.

It wasn't a decision I took lightly.

he's straining to keep it in the vain hope it will succumb to such immense pressures he can finally shit out a diamond before fizzling into the dustbin of history.

Fucking hilarious.

"Labour-run urban authorities – especially the mayoralties of London and Manchester – have been treated by central government as rivals rather than partners in tackling a public health disaster."

Mr Khan please condemn the destruction of Elephant & Castle shopping centre and the displacement of communities that you *checks notes* could've highlighted, or even helped to stop.

The United Kingdom is now about to discover what happens when a 'sovereign' nation makes and then reneges on international agreements

"The infringement procedure is a common tool used by the commission against member states. Last year there were 800 open cases. Germany had 47 pending cases and France 34. Each procedure takes an average of 35 months to complete."

It's fine, we'll be imposing economic sanctions on ourselves in three months time.

Ms Ferrier said: “Dominic Cummings’ actions have undermined the sacrifices that we have all been making in lockdown to protect each other from coronavirus. His position is untenable and he must be removed from his post now.

jinx!

Very relieved to discover that's not fake.

Matt DC, Thursday, 1 October 2020 17:59 (three years ago) link

“The fact that Boris Johnson and senior Tories have backed Dominic Cummings, in the face of widespread and understandable public anger, demonstrates a total failure of leadership at a time of national crisis.

“The public health advice is crystal clear. For the safety of others, anyone with coronavirus symptoms must self-isolate, in line with government guidance. They should not leave the house for any reason.

“Anyone who needs help during periods of self-isolation should make use of the support offered through local authorities, which is open to anyone who needs it.”

First Jezza violates the rule of six and now this

Gab B. Nebsit (wins), Thursday, 1 October 2020 18:38 (three years ago) link

I thought we were keeping quiet about that one.

here we go, ten in a rona (onimo), Thursday, 1 October 2020 18:39 (three years ago) link

It was looking that way a bit

Gab B. Nebsit (wins), Thursday, 1 October 2020 18:41 (three years ago) link

He should be heavily fined and forced to invite his brother Piers to the next dinner party of six.

calzino, Thursday, 1 October 2020 18:47 (three years ago) link

again fucking stupid. why post a picture of a rule-breaking dinner party? not that corbz's reputation is that important at this juncture

here comes the hotstamper (jim in vancouver), Thursday, 1 October 2020 18:47 (three years ago) link

If I was Corbyn's age I would not be going to a dinner party with seven other people (I wouldn't do it at my age frankly).

Every single time something like this happens it undermines everything even more. Corbyn should make a big deal of publically paying the fine.

Matt DC, Thursday, 1 October 2020 20:12 (three years ago) link

(This is the first I've heard of it fwiw)

Matt DC, Thursday, 1 October 2020 20:12 (three years ago) link

I was off doing stuff today so I did not see that someone who hosted Jeremy Corbyn or was at the dinner sold the photo to The motherfucking Sun, but he made a statement that the group of five he was part of got extra people added to it after his arrival, he's sorry, and he'll pay any fine levied. It's down to his host to say 'no more people' though...

santa clause four (suzy), Thursday, 1 October 2020 20:26 (three years ago) link

Lads that “dinner party “ was a wake, David Graeber’s in fact.

seumas milm (gyac), Thursday, 1 October 2020 21:02 (three years ago) link

Oh man, then whoever flogged that photo is going to Hell.

santa clause four (suzy), Thursday, 1 October 2020 21:04 (three years ago) link

I read that the Sun lifted it off social media - shouldn’t have broken the rule, but a wake’s not really like a dinner party, people come and go. He’s said he’ll pay the fine.

seumas milm (gyac), Thursday, 1 October 2020 21:05 (three years ago) link

(Is it vmic for me to be more sympathetic to a wake? No shit.)
