The similarities between Andy Burnham and Liz Kendall are startling.

 

They both wear the same brand of lipstick for a start.

Hermes is Katie Hopkins. 

 

'I think all kids should be gassed!' 

 

'Oooh what's she said now!' 

 

* yawns

She's just truly awful isn't she.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

She also uses Apple, what a fucking bitch. 

[Jairzinho]

She's just truly awful isn't she.

 

She'll be my second preference on the ballot.

[VladimirIlyich]

She'll be my second preference on the ballot.

My second preference will be the same as the first.

[Hooch]

She'll be my second preference on the ballot.

Tactical? Or you actually rate her?

 

I'd have Burnham as mine.

I'm slightly offended you feel you have to ask.

 

She's going to get the least first choice votes, therefore having her as second choice gives Corbyn more chance of winning.

[Hooch]

My apologies.

 

Might do the same now thinking about it.

[Bjornebye]

To say what?

One people

One vote

One Corbyn

[Hooch]

"Liz".

 

 

"U go gurl"

 

"Da gurls dun gud!"

 

"She's jus little ol liz frm Leicester ownin it"

 

 

Sorry, these were the vibes I picked up from that clip.

Kind of reminds of that bit on Anchorman where Veronica Corningstone sits in and reads the news.

If that Kendal video doesn't bring a couple of million pissed up Scots come flocking back to the Labour Party nothing will.

Bloody hell. That was basically a shit version of the Pacino speech in Any Given Sunday.

 

As if she sits and writes this shit herself.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

She's just truly awful isn't she.

 

Not particularly. 

[Anubis]

I do find it bizarre that in a contest in which Kendall has been criticised for offering sound bytes instead of policies or ideas, she releases a video offering only sound bytes instead of policies or ideas.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

She's just truly awful isn't she.

What makes her think she's "the candidate best placed to win"?

I think you're flattering her there, A. She said absolutely nothing

[Jairzinho]

I thought it was a pisstake when I first saw it.

[Gnasher]

As she's firmly placed in the Westminster bubble that statement is probably correct.

[Anny Road]

She mentioned 'hard working families' so she must be good.

A senior Labour MP has called for its leadership contest to be "paused" over fears it has been infiltrated by supporters of other parties.

Barry Sheerman said those registering to take part included members of the Socialist Workers Party, the Green Party, the Conservatives and UKIP.

Labour rejects claims of "hard left" and Conservative supporters signing up to back left winger Jeremy Corbyn.

 

 

Funny if Liz was winning, would they claim the hard right had infiltrated the party? They would talk about how you couldn't ignore democratic process etc

[Dr Nowt]

Barbara Wintergreen reports.

[Boss]

Liz's non committal stance on her views makes Ed Miliband look like Fidel Castro by comparison. Take your Blairite bullshit elsewhere Liz. Still she gets some respect at least for keeping the comments on her channel public, unlike Burnham, who wants to be elected by the people but doesn't want to have a discourse with them.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Liz 'likes' the NHS, Surestart and the minimum wage.

 

It doesnt really set the heather on fire, does it?
