Young Labour tweets (then deletes) : Joan Ryan gone - Palestine Lives.  

 

But there’s no problem...

Someone suggests that the resignation of someone who defends Apartheid and the violent oppression of Palestinians might be good for Palestine. 

 

Well, if that's not cast iron proof that Labour is a hotbed of anti-Semitism, I don't know what is.

This is very good news in my view. I hope a few more Tories join in the coming days. 

 

It potentially moves the balance of power from the DUP to this new group which is preferable and could lead to a softer brexit, or it could force the hand of May and make her call a GE. Probably need 4/5 more Tories to join to make that a realistic option. Either way it further dilutes the power of this shambolic government.

The Independent Group have only been going for about 24 hours and they've already got equal the amount of MPs as the Lib Dems. 

 

Pahahahaha. 

The difference being the Lib Dems are an actual political party with policies and parliamentary accountability. These are just a loose coalition of individuals with no policies and hidden funding.

They are now. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens then.

Are they now just a private company in Parliament?

There are 11 MP's in a group with no discernible political affiliation which can now do damage to the democratic process by existing just to sabotage. It stinks.

The Corbyn Twitterati are banging on about funding, but the Times political editor says he’s asked them about it with this reply:

 

 

 

Think as it stands now May has a majority of six. Another three defections and she loses her majority. If four leave the Tories the opposition parties have two more votes than the DUP and Tories combined.

What I can never work out is that if the Labour Party membership is institutionally anti-Semitic from the grassroots up (or in Angela Smith's case  the bottom up) why have the likes of Dispatches, Panorama or any other media outlet never secretly filmed an undercover expose on it.

I mean over the years we've had ones on care homes, the police , UKIP, animal mistreatment in Circuses , English and Russian football hooligans, so you wouldn't think in a party that has over 500,000 members and is only a few quid to join it wouldn't be hard to go to a meeting where this is taking place.

The concern is she calls a snap election. With the current state of the Labour Party she'd probably increase her majority and get rid of the DUP.

 

Edit: Although she did promise her minions that she wouldn't lead their party into the next election, so that might hold her back.

It's funny if you're cretinous enough not to think the Lib Dems have been involved in this all along.
