The people who are being suspended and expelled from the Labour Party are MPs and Councillors. So they have been in it since a lot longer ago than last September.
Ken Livingstone joined the Labour Party under Tony Blair. That is not a technicality. It is just a fact. He was able to do so only by special dispensation, a year before he would have been eligible to submit even an application that could have been rejected.
If anything, then, Jeremy Corbyn is the first Labour Leader to take anti-Semitism seriously.
You still on to contest this seat in 2020, Mr. L? That should have been the start of your fourth term.
ReplyDeleteAt least of the shills and stooges of the City and the Saudis had removed Corbyn and replaced him with some Hillary Clinton tribute act, yes.
DeleteAt least?
DeleteAt least.
DeleteThere are other possible considerations, such as whether or not the Labour candidate here was one of those shills, stooges, and tribute acts.
The new seat contains almost all of an historically Labour seat that is nowhere near as safe as the local Labour Party seems to think that it is, most of a seat that has always been been Labour but which the Tories nearly took last year, and much of a seat that has always been Tory.
But Labour will not fight, as such, because it will think that this is in the bag. The Tories will not fight, in any sense, because they will think that Labour has this in the bag.
In reality, though, this seat will be wide open. If I could contest it full-time for the next four years, until the General Election of 7th May 2020, then I would certainly be the First Past The Post on that day. I know exactly how I would do it.
But that is a big "If". And anyway, it is more than possible that there will be no need.
So you'd put up against a City shill and Saudi stooge Labour candidate even if Jeremy was still the Labour leader?
ReplyDeletePerhaps. That could also be said about several other things, too.
DeleteBut I will certainly do it if they have removed him and replaced him with one of their own.
