There have been five
General Elections in my adult lifetime, and The Guardian has backed the Lib Dems at the most
recent four of them.
That is in accordance with its historical norm. Its
endorsement of Labour in 1997 was altogether exceptional.
So I do not know why
anyone is surprised at articles such as this.
But who needs it?
First the Old Labour
areas swing it for Leave, and now Jeremy Corbyn prepares to win the Labour Leadership
hands down for the second time in as many years.
Once that is
out of the way, how about some new media outlets giving a platform to our
voices?
Anyone can have a website. I have four. I have as many websites as my mother has children. And that is without counting Facebook and Twitter, which together take me up to nine outlets.
But why shouldn't we have a
newspaper, a current affairs magazine, a radio station, a television station, a
production company? Why not?
Let's get Corbyn confirmed in office first, and then it will be all systems go.

Do it, this could be canny.

DeleteIf those Old Labour areas are for Leave why did they make the baffling decision to vote for a pro Remain Ed Miliband and a Labour party almost 100% of whose MPs are all Remainers?
ReplyDeleteAre they that stupid up North?
Silly little boy. Most toffs are such utterly unsophisticated people, really.
DeleteThey are very, very bitter that the people who swung this would never vote Ukip in a million years, think Thatcher was the Antichrist, will vote Labour at the next election whoever is leader but prefer Corbyn to any of the alternatives.
DeleteBeing pro Leave and voting Labour is like being a Southern civil rights campaigner and voting for the Ku Klux Klan.
ReplyDeleteThose Old Labour areas can't be too intelligent.
Silly little boy. You are not called the lower middle classes for nothing, are you?
DeleteUkip is over, get over Ukip.
