  1. 1. Who do you want to cunt Cameron in the bastard?

    • Liz Kendall - she invented mintcake.
    • Andy Burnham - such sadness in those eyes
    • Yvette Cooper - uses her maiden name because she doesn't want to be called "I've ate balls"
    • Jeremy Corbyn - substitute geography teacher

If one can't worship a Caramel Digestive dunked in tea, what hope do we have left dennis?

 

None. Especially as Dennis isn't offering any other biscuits. Sometimes he says he has some other biscuits, but he's pretty coy about them. He prefers to just criticise our biscuits.

Always amazes me how shite most "rioters" are. Can never organise their greater numbers properly.

 

Interestingly, I think the only way neoliberalism is vulnerable now is through direct action, as, like the termites they are, they've chewed through so much of the state that there's nothing left to stop them. The Metropolitan Police will soon consist of around 80 G4S security gaurds from Botswana with a combined weight of 8,000 stone, and a Twitter feed from William Bratton. The Royal Navy currently consists of a scooner called  the HMS Arron DiPablo, and it's in drydock.

Experts baffled by popularity of politician with ‘principles’

 

Politicians and commentators have admitted to being utterly baffled as to the appeal of principled politician, Jeremy Corbyn.

“No one can quite fathom Jeremy’s appeal,” said a Labour insider.

“For some reason people are enjoying hear someone speak with conviction on their own beliefs rather than toss off the usual centrist, benefit-hating, corporate-loving, vote-for-me-and-you’ll-get-a-bigger-bag-of-crisps rhetoric that they’ve been force-fed since the height of Thatcher-ism.”

Andrew Rawsley from the Observer concurred.

“Look, everyone knows that they only way Labour can win elections in this country is by being Tories with different coloured ties, so what’s the point of actually putting together an alternative?”

“Bring back Tony Blair, Oasis, and bombing Iraq,” he concluded.

Other candidates for the Labour leadership, rocked by the notion that they might actually have to put together a more coherent argument than ‘Mr Cameron is a nasty man,’ are scrabbling to find a way to defeat Mr Corbyn.

“We’re focus-grouping like mad,” said one of Yvette Cooper’s team.

“Trying to find the most popular principles that Yvette should have, then she’ll adopt them and speak from the heart. Easy.”

Liz Kendall’s team were taking a different approach.

“Blind optimism and hating poor people, it’s a solid foundation for the Labour leadership.”

Whereas Andy Burnham was taking a more pragmatic approach.

“He’s got a beard as he’s been around since the eighties,” said a Burnham insider

“We’ll just claim he’s a paedophile.”

It is expected the fad for a principled politician will end once people realise that it will involve people paying slightly more tax.

Dennis, coy??? Hardly. He's always said, if you don't like the biscuit, those who make them, what they put in them, stop bloody moaning and make your own biscuits.

Denis wants every individual in the country to contribute a type of biscuit to place on the list, and then everyone vote on which biscuit he should actually offer.  He has no idea how to make this happen, however, or even if people have the time to read all the small print on the biscuit packets to decide which may be suitable.

Not everyone knows how to make biscuits. He wants everyone to make their own biscuits but refuses to give anyone his recipe.

He thinks everyone is capable of learning to make biscuits and 1/2 the battle is in the learning. And who'd want his anchovy and lentil creams anyway?

Well, that's lovely, but sadly people aren't making their own biscuits so it would appear that he's wrong. Perhaps he's just a shit biscuit maker, he hadn't, after all, heard of the Kurdish biscuit makers. Who arguably make the finest biscuits in the world.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. If people can't be bothered making their own biscuits then they'll just have to put up with the shit they are served. And you don't need to be an expert in Kurdish snacks to know that a shit sandwich is a shit sandwich and could be improved upon. Probably not by not by people who have a 80% margin on shit sandwiches though.

He hasn't taken the horses anywhere near water. Presumably he also wants some water you'd think he'd make a little more effort.

 

If you're trying to sell your own home made biscuits it's probably best that you do plenty of research on how to make biscuits, that way you'll look like less of an idiot when people scrutinise your recipe.

 

Lots of people don't know that making biscuits is even an option, others quite like the idea of making biscuits but feel it's not realistic, some others even are willing to try and make some biscuits but don't really know how. Everyone that knows how to make biscuits should stop being a tedious cunt slagging off chocolate hobnobs and help people to make their own biscuits.

 

Otherwise the reality is that people will just keep looking for the best shop bought biscuits.

You want everything done for you. That's part of Dennis's point. Just because he can't mill grain or catch anchovies and doesn't have a background in teaching home economics doesn't mean you shouldn't be making your own biscuits.

 

He's a signpost not public transportation. Anyway focus on the idea not the person.

I don't want someone to make biscuits for me, but if someone is going to float the idea of making your own you'd think they might be, you know, making their own biscuits.

 

He's a fucking terrible signpost.

You expect a lot from a blert on a message board.

 

Experience of leading revolutions. Check.

Prior implementation of anarchically structured societies. Check.

 

Its a shortlist. And he went full gulag.

No, I've come to expect absolutely nothing from Dennis. This is the shortlist -

 

 - Willingness to talk about anarchism, or indeed anything, without being a complete and utter twat.

 - The first fucking clue about other anarchist structures.

 

I don't actually think Dennis gives that much of a fuck. He'd rein in some of the ridiculous stuff and speak to people like humans occasionally if he did. He'd be less dismissive, and generally less unpleasant. Being the "mad" one on the internet is more of a priority to him than attempting to effect actual real life change.

So where do the biscuits come into this exactly? I'd vote for a biscuit. Be better than any cunt I've every voted for before.

 

You could stick a blue rosette on a biscuit and put it in charge of the conservative party and Murdoch would still find a way to vilify the human opposition whilst praising the biscuit.

 

"It's time for a change from human leadership anyway, humans gave us Mao, Hitler and Stalin, it's time to venture towards soft, doughy, flour based goodness in the fight with terrorists and ISIS and it's time a pastry told those work shy disabled people to get up off their arses and work."

You don't like his approach. Fine try another. He doesn't have answers because in a lot of cases there aren't answers yet. They're emerging, they're nascent they need to be talked and thought into existence. If the mainstream had readymade answers they'd be everywhere. They're not so, either play your part in teasing them out or eat your shit sandwich.

No thats your inferiority complex describing itself, you have no solution Ive seen on here but after backing ed milliband to save us and watching him fail, your idea failed there, now your solution is nothing more than hope in five years theres anything left of a media and labour party savaged corbyn, at the behest of the elites who are infinitely more powerful than him for a tiny moment in time where it might seem we are back on top without any understanding of the financial implications or care for how many people will die trying to acheive this, indeed while the nhs morgues are filling up with people waiting to be seen for the next five years the one thing you seem to want is people to strike and starve, to riot and starve, to back corbyn should they let him win the labour contest until the banks have pulled the rug from under our feet which also involves us starving, then given that theres only enough food to last a month in this country in this globalised economy we should expect the rest of the world to comply with our rejection of austerity when theyre 99% in the hands of the 1%.

Whereas my solution is radical, never been proposed anywhere Ive seen of whats only ever been theoretically possible for all of mankinds history but for the past 20 years, if that, what else you want from me, to tell you when you can go to the toilet?
