Grotesque Chaos

Moving right at a rate of knots, Rebecca Long-Bailey is the Transkinnock. And look what happened to him. Nothing much, in the end. Is he still alive? Does anybody know? Or care?

As for saltiness at Long-Bailey's rally in Liverpool last night, Boris Johnson is particularly unloved in that city. Still, if the Crown Prosecution Service had known that The Sun was going to run the risk of going bust, then it might not have deliberately constructed too weak a case to convict a man of killing 95 Scousers, which it did so that Rupert Murdoch would eventually allow Keir Starmer to become Prime Minister. 

Richard Burgon probably voted Leave. I think that for various reasons, one of the public ones being that he wants to name Labour's new political education programme after Tony Benn. And Richard has not capitulated to the two bullying lobbies one or both of which has captured every other candidate for Leader or Deputy Leader. So he is the only person on either ballot worth voting for.

If for some unknown reason you choose to retain a Labour Party membership card. Ours is the 2020 Vision of a new political party, a new think tank, a new weekly newspaper, a new monthly cultural review, a new quarterly academic journal, and so much else besides. I will be standing for Parliament again here at North West Durham next time, so please give generously. In any event, please email davidaslindsay@hotmail.com. Very many thanks.
