  1. Michael Gove saying something along the lines of “A new generation should lead” Hardly a ringing endorsement for Sunak is it
  2. Sky News are reporting that Andrea Loathesome asked if she could submit a letter of no confidence AFTER Sunak announced the election
  3. See post elsewhere. It's one of the reasons he's gone now because choosing the candidates in constituencies that hadn't currently chosen now falls to CCO and not the constituencies, who given the time would push even more throbby candidates on the party. They'll be bad obviously, but not as bad as they would have been if he'd played the long game
  4. There's time for him to quit yet but it will take an active braincell to make the decision
  5. So when Labour MPs leave the party because of the antisemitic abuse they received from Party members and nothing was done about it that isn't a purge?
  6. Discipline for the Labour Party is the responsibility of the NEC. The cynic will say "but the NEC is stuffed with the Leaders stooges" (You'd have to assume democratically elected stooges but ...)
  7. Labour Left - Say no to racism! DIanne Abbott does something racist. Labour Left - Say No to Racism except Dianne Abbott s Racism... doesn't quite work does it
  8. They restored the whip to Matt Hancock and Bob Stewart...
  9. To catch up with Bing who've been doing it for months
  10. Craig MacInlay also now not standing (pun not intended)
  11. Theres another reason. DIanne Abbotts investigation isn't complete. Labour have just announced that the result of her investigation will be announced on June 4th, which also happens to be the day nominations close for the General Election. If that doesn't say absolutely no chance, I don't know what does. It looks like they are pushing her to leave to stand as an Indie
  12. No not really, can't speak for others but one of the reasons I'm not voting Labour is because they won't change the democratic system from FPTP. Its absolutely one of my red lines
  13. abuse of people posting on VT is not the same thing as people abusing public figures for actions they've done Abusing people you are talking to / debating with as members of the site does not lead to a great discourse Abusing for example Sue-Ellen Braverman for generally being a horrendous person with dreadful policies and opinions is not the same thing at all.
  14. There's an absolute world of difference to hating something outside of peoples control (Like skin colour / sexuality etc), to hating things completely within their control (their poitics) The Tories have been responsible for large scale premature deaths in this country but I should respect their opinions? Nah
  15. I can't work out why scum as an insult causes such an adverse reaction. In my lexicon its rather a mild insult. I much prefer to use a phrase like haemorrhoid encrusted shit stain than just scum. I suppose the lack of creativity with scum might be an issue But you are the layer of froth on top of a liquid is hardly the most hurtful thing is it?
  16. Well there's that and I think the point about GBeebies has some validity too
