Fortunate the electorate won't put up with that type of hate speech anymore, NSC might (depends on who is saying it) but the real electorate won't.



Explain more please, maybe you meant the personal abuse that has been aimed at me and let go for months/years?

That is perfectly acceptable in the eyes of the wokerati, you are a perfect target for abuse, you don’t fit into the champagne socialist way of thinking, you are thick, working class and almost certainly voted to leave the EU.
Ugh…. Be off with you.

I’m more amazed at the outrage of a woman daring to call scum, than an MP ‘joking’ about sending a bomb to the Labour Party chairwoman at Brighton after the 1984 IRA bomb which killed 5 people.
Perhaps people have already forgotten Jo Cox or Airey Neave, both murdered whilst MPs?
Faux outrage about using the word scum, when I can find it on multiple threads today.

No, it’s not about you.

With tax rises, inflation and energy shortages it seems we already have Blue Labour in power .

Good intentions but for me, the horse has well and truly bolted.

I always detested high street shopping anyway, but the past 18 months or so has convinced me I never have to visit the likes of Brighton shops ever again.

Queues, hassle and grief with expensive parking means online purchases for quite a few now.

I prefer to suppot local businesses who employ local people all putting more tax revenues in the coffers rather than making Jeff Bezos richer

I wouldn't say I'm at Taliban level of zealotry but no doubt you'd find some of my views radical.

On day one of my reign I'd:

  • Nationalise utilities and public transport
  • Raise the top rate of tax to 85% for earnings over £135,000
  • Ban private education and healthcare
  • Quadruple council tax on second homes
  • Put the heads of Tory voters on pikes around constituency boundaries
  • Implement a land value tax
  • Eliminate tuition fees for further education
  • Ban religious schools
  • Behead all royals and aristocracy
  • Introduce UBI
  • Bring in 4 new public holidays and a four day working week

Eminently sensible policies that most would agree with :cute:

What are you on about? Completely ridiculous. Sum's up what's wrong with this site. You're going on ignore. Nobody will see the heads on the constituency boundaries. Much better in the town centres :)

It's all been downhill since Labour missed out on the Long-Bailey/Burgon dream ticket.

Speaking at the debate aimed at providing Socialist Solutions To The Crisis, Salford and Eccles MP Ms Long-Bailey said: “We are facing a fuel crisis, an energy crisis, a care crisis, a cost of living crisis, a building safety crisis, a climate crisis, I could go on, but the point is the country is in an extreme crisis.

“People are suffering and it is set to get much much worse.

“And I say this with deepest sorrow rather than anger, that amidst these crises, amidst this despair, when our full artillery should be focused on attacking this incompetent government, we are presented as a party whose main priority is gerrymandering its own internal election policies.”

Ms Long-Bailey, who stood in the 2020 Labour leadership contest and went onto serve as shadow education secretary, later added: “Many of us might not be in the shadow cabinet anymore, but we are working on those policies, we are developing new ideas, from our members to our trade unions, the work is being done.

“So use us, don’t demoralise us.”

Leeds East MP Richard Burgon told the fringe event the “advice” he would give to Sir Keir.

He said: “My advice would be it is a really bad look to the country when you are failing to honour you own pledges to the member of your party.”

Hard to argue with any of that.
