^ That is the most sensible piece I've read from Chuka Umunna in a good while :yep:

Problem is Jim, if Corbyn becomes Labour leader, the sort of policies he favours might, just might, get Glasgow voting for them again. They voted SNP, not because they necessarily want independence, but because they believe in Old Labour Values. The SNP cunningly adopted left wing rhetoric specifically to woo that particular area. The Red Clydeside spirit is still there.

If you control Glasgow, you control Scotland.

Thus many former Labour voters went for the SNP because the believe that the Nats are where Old Labour used to be. What they haven't noticed is that in terms of actual policies, there ain't much difference between the SNP and Labour!

That should give the party leadership an indication of what went wrong for them in their oldest citadel. The current Labour Party is too right wing for the Western Central Belt!

Mike.

Here we go again..

UK WORLD POLICE STRIKES AGAIN!

I don't give a dam which party is in government as all of them have screwed up and now Cameron is going to do his bit making the UK even more of a target!

Brilliant idea rob the poor and build bombs so we can drop them on a handful of hot heads in the Middle East and say we're just made the UK safer...NO YOU BLOODY WELL HAVE NOT YOU MORONS!

Come on old bean, you've got to let the flaming idiot go around strutting his stuff just like Blair and Thatcher once did.
Point 1
He can't be called a proper Prime Minister until he's gone and got plenty of blood on his hands.
Point 2
One's got to keep one's standards up old boy, having that Labour pussy Blair screwing up more than he has must be causing him some sleepless nights.
Point 3
A fanfare of bullets and bombs will deflect attention away from our £1.5 trillion of debt now won't it. :/\\!!

We're on the road to hell.:nope:

I agree the terrorists must be stopped, but toffboy shouldn't be bragging and spouting off about it as we all might as well walk around with a big target on our backs..

I see old Gids wants 40% more cuts, hang on we're not in do-do according to the government. :hmmm:

If this is true Labour could very well crash out with the LibDems. :hmmm:

If Corbyn wins I'll be cancelling my party membership and I have told Andy Burnham that.

I have thought of doing that as well, even though I don't really want to...

Jeremy Corbyn is in front in this poll.

Aye, the Times reckoned he was front runner in the polls, but then again we've had a very good demonstration lately of how reliable polls can be... :dead:

Never really rated Margaret Beckett all that much but her stock rating shot up when I read about this...

I'm applying government policies to my house. I'm going to cut my kids pocket money and pay myself more.

Jeremy Corbyn wins the leaders debate on LBC Radio and 9 out of 10 callers back him to the hilt.

He speaks common sense

He meets the people and talks with them not down at them

He has time for the voter and will win back votes that went to UKIP

He will restore faith in the labour party

^Just some of the comments from the general public


Now a bit of balance from the 1 out of 10

He will destroy the labour party

He is clueless

One caller suggested he will destroy the labour party which will be great as labour is a stinking right wing party and the result a true northern socialist labour party will rise from the ashes of the dead labour, just to add he was a labour member.


Well the publis like him but I see within labour the backlash against him is rising so his days on the stage could be drawing to a end.

Bloody calm down Tony or I've give thee a left hook. :har:
