Some people are being thrown out the party for liking tweets about other parties , but we are readmitting somebody who actually joined another party ?

So Ellmans back in is she? Sometimes it is easy being Green.

Andy McDonald has resigned from the Labour party because he was instructed to go into a meeting and argue against a £15 minimum wage.

Good on you lad.

To be fair, £15 an hour is deeply unrealistic and only a cunt would argue for it.

Too bad, nothing would speed the inexorable march towards full automation than entry level jobs paying 32 grand a year.

The trouble with full automation is there would be few people able to afford the products.

We would have to be paid to do nothing. It would be like living in the 1970s again.

He hasn’t resigned from the party he’s resigned from the shadow cabinet. Actually from a shadow role that doesn’t have a department.  So who exactly was he shadowing?  
 

Hopefully shadow minister for kissing and cuddling will be ok.

The headline on the news has changed. The news strap, I'm pretty sure originally said he had resigned from the party. I'm happy to be corrected on that though.

[Anubis]

It’s the Shadow Cabinet he resigned from.

No party divisions in Wales, just a bit of good old fashioned socialism.

How come the unions are so against PR?   

[Red Phoenix]

So unions have fucked up a vote for PR and made any MP trying to get on a leadership ballot need 20% of MP's support too. They've not really had the best few days when it comes to democracy have they?

Dilutes influence as most likely it’d bring in a lot of fringe/single issue parties which are not aligned.

But means they are less likely to ever get elected?

It’s better in theory to have one that might than some that will never.

 

Numbers game.

Thanks, repped not in agreeing but because I was baffled too and good to know what the reason is.

[Red Phoenix]

I just checked the Trilateral site which is currently down as they're working on an update. They link to their member list for this year though and Sir Rodney Stalin QC is still a member.

 

That's where a lot of the general direction will be coming from. It's not a party for workers right now, it's a corporate party.

 

And that's why they'll be more electable.

 

Not because enough people can pull off something amazing at the next election, but because the corps will be shilling for them and the media will be joining them, making things a lot easier than when Jezza was planning on breaking up some of their fun.

 

This country seems seriously fucked for the time being.

Reminds me of the Lib Dem pledge to students on fees.

So hang on, there actually wasn't any threat of violence whatsoever? 

 

 

The only thing I've seen is a claim of a threat. No evidence presented. Just a claim. Otherwise known as an unsubstantiated claim.

A journalist was assaulted in a Labour fringe meeting by someone who had been expelled from the Labour Party. But apparently it's unthinkable that a Labour MP could be at risk of violence.

This has been debunked. 

 

Stop being dishonest.

Are you saying that she is making it all up ? The domestic abuse, the death threats etc ? Why would she do that ?
