Fuck me! How self-important are you?

Did it ever occur to you whilst indulging in your masturbatory rants that it was a tad quiet in here and Liverpool FC might be playing a game of football?

For what it's worth, I focussed on the real challenge to the nation on June 8th. I specifically said put to one side any reservations any of you might have re JC and consider who on this thread, for all our in-fighting, sees the Vandal-Tories as our primary enemy - well enemy doesn't quite capture it - in truth they are OUR public enemy No1.

I got nothing of any specific response back except a cringeing appeal to the refs in here. And you wonder why I'm fucked off? Tell you what's probably best thing for me to do and that's to leave you all to dissect and dismantle the only vehicle that will prevent the Vandal's riding back into Rome on June 9th. I tried the debating way and got slung a deaf 'un.

Clearly JC is the enemy of the nation. Well it stands to reason doesn't it? After all he's responsible for the on-going theft of our NHS, the imposition of the bedroom tax, the theft of the benefit support to the disabled, ATOS declaring sick and dying people fit for work, firefighters being sacked as unproductive, nurses being robbed blind on 2 fronts via removal of their training bursary and 1% pay cap held firmly in place irrespective of erosion in real terms of over 10% since the Toryboys snatched complete control of the reins. 

No doubt you'll have a celebration party on Friday 9th June when Maggie May surfs her way back for another 5 miserable and oh so punitive years. I will remember how it was made possible even if you choose to forget.   
He put himself forward to defend these people, he has now made them more vulnerable to attack so I dont know how he can be defended. this point has been made over and over for months by people on here but it has been ignored by his supporters, now the elections here the people who kept arguing Corbyn will empower the Torys for many years to come are being accused of not caring for the poor and the sick.
Talking about June 9th, whatever the result the poor and the sick will once again be put on the back burner and the defense of Corbyn will begin, how he's the only true socialist in the party, he will be met with smiles and cheers, patted on the back everywhere he goes, in the meantime those poor and sick people will be left to the mercy of the Torys for another 5 yrs.
In any other walk of life he would be grabbed by the collar and slung out the door and told some defense you put up.
I do understand where your coming from but it's futile. a few votes on here mean sod all. you cant expect people to talk positively over Corbyns Labour right now, we know the whole campaign will be a disaster. ive been getting up every morning over the last couple of weeks, switching on the telly and hoping the news says Corbyn resigns. now if that happened it could be a different ball game.those poor and sick people would have a chance again.

And what is worse, it seems they no longer even care about wining the bloody election. 

Winning was never an ambition.  Only hanging on to the corpse of this once great party is.


This could backfire spectacularly. a vote for Labour is now going to be interpreted as vote to keep Corbyn as leader after Labour lose the GE.

I'll keep telling those whose only narrative is what a twat JC is; he's ruined the Party; he's guilty of leftish cronyism; couldn't run a piss-up in you know where; and an absolute plethora of so many other negatives they are too many to recount here to fuck off. The reason why I do? Rome is burning and the Vandals are marching on proudly waving Union Jacks as they do so of course. Yet those who say they absolutely are enemies of these fucking Vandal-Tories (you know them, they're the ones who aided and abetted by MSM and the shady faces who fund them are grinding us into the ground) can only seem to muster your concentrated fire on the only hope of a political movement which can stop them.

To all of you who are disenchanted with JC - and you individually and collectively know well who you are - if you are seriously opposed and sincerely want the Vandal-Tories gone and you all clearly KNOW what's at stake for all of the nation if they are given another 5 years to finish their demolition of our welfare state - I say this.

Set aside your scorn and unite to ensure that your scorn is poured out on the real enemy. Remember the old saying The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
If you won't do that to rid this nation of this despicable scourge then you are no enemy of the Vandal-Tories and are well-deserving of being told to fuck off.

And I repeat to you Johnno - we're not the ones you have to convince. 

How many fucking Tories are actually on this forum?  How many people are on here who vote Tory one election and Labour the next?  Labour ain't gonna lose because of us - he's gonna lose because of them.

The Corbyn hate on here may get you riled up enough to start spitting venom but if you come blundering on here on June 9th telling us that it's our fucking fault Labour lost then I hope the mods string you up for it.  It's not fucking on.

Lay the blame where it belongs - at the door of your leader.

Fucks sake Johnno. Get your head out of Corbyn's arse and look at what's happening in the real world.

I didn't make any normal voter hate Corbyn. All I've done from the start is point out that he's an unlikable character for most people and that he had far too much political baggage. He's chippy in interviews and a bit shambolic. Everything that has come to pass has been entirely predictable and you and every other Corbyn supporter has done immense damage to the party and to the people you keep claiming to care about.

The only reason for supporting Corbyn is if you want to turn the Party in to a politically pure but irrelevant sideshow. And if that's what you want please get Jeremy to fuck off and join the SWP where he belongs.

And Corbyn in Manchester with two candidates (Long Bailey and Khan) with no link to the constituency the rally was being held in. Although it does seem all post ex facto rationalisation for what Corbyn and co. had every intention of doing anyway. "We're having rallies in urban, liberal strongholds to win an election" just won't wash with the local election results demonstrating the polls aren't lying.

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/may/07/no-tax-rises-for-people-on-less-than-80000-pledges-john-mcdonnell

Labour could create a new tax bracket for those earning above £80,000, with further rises for those on the top rate of tax, John McDonnell has hinted.

The shadow chancellor pledged the highest increases in taxation would be reserved for “the 1% at the top” in a speech in which he launched Labour’s flagship tax pledge, where only those earning more than £80,000 – the top 5% of earners in the UK – would face an increase.


I totally agree that the highest earners should pay the most tax.

The party’s manifesto would clarify “exactly what the rates will be”, McDonnell said. “I think people will be pleasantly surprised on the modesty of what we are asking of people. One of the principles is that the highest earners will pay the most.”



This sounds good:

“I want to pay tribute to those who do pay their taxes at the high level,” he said. “They make their contribution and we thank them for that. At the same time, we want a fair taxation system. If we upgrade up our economy, we will create a richer society.”

This not so good:

“I think we’ve got a period of time in which we’ve not been able to get our policies across,” he told Marr. “Partly that’s the media, I have to say. I have to be straight about that. But also we are campaigning with a united party, our campaign has got to step up a notch. The general election starts now.”

It begs the questions; What have they been doing the past two years?  Surely the whole process of being in opposition, is that you are preparing for government.  You should be ready to go from day one.

Why don't you instead address your comments to the campaign of hate the man has had to endure throughout his leadership?  Doesn't this sustained, vicious and virulent assault which has been the Establishment's primary goal - to discredit and topple him - tell you anything at all?!! They are scared shitless  that his message for the regeneration and restoration of a social heart and soul of the party will resonate with our battered and beleaguered people.

Not going to waste any of my own time composing a riposte to you. This guy says everything I think needs to be said:

I think it’s fair to say that the past 18 months have put me firmly on the anti- side of the Corbyn argument. On Twitter I’ve made a lot of jokes at the expense of Corbyn and his supporters, on Facebook, and in real life, I’ve argued and debated with them, been round and round their loops of obfuscation and denial, but I’ve never been angry with them.

Until now.

Now, when those who’ve fawned over Corbyn since his entry into the leadership contest, who’ve been at the forefront of denouncing ‘Blairites’, who’ve called for the deselection of decent Labour MPs, who’ve minimised Labour’s 1997-2010 record, and also Corbyn’s pre-2015 atrocities, who’ve reposted and quote The Morning Star and The Canary, while screaming that the ‘MSM’ is a Zionist tool being used against them…now that those people are hurriedly trying to win back the voters that they told to ‘fuck off and join the Tories’ by painting a vote for Corbyn’s Labour as being the only possible opposition to the Conservative’s destructive path.



Seriously, fuck you all.

Corbyn isn’t going to save the NHS. He’s not going to build thousands of new affordable homes, he’s not going to make schools into palaces, universities free, pensioners wealthy or end poverty. He’s not going to do any of those things for four reasons:

He’s incompetent. Massively, massively incompetent. He can’t do a no-seats-on-the-train stunt without falling flat on his face. He can’t fill a shadow cabinet. He can’t plan. And he’s surrounded himself with people whose incompetence equals his own. Between them they can’t run a government and an economy, they can’t even run a political party.  He’s a protester. He complains about things being wrong. He’s never had to make things right, and he doesn’t know how to do it.

He doesn’t want to. He’s spent his entire adult life fighting the establishment and fighting against his own party, and when he is the establishment all that’s left for him to fight against is his party. If you’re shaking your head and telling yourself it wouldn’t be like that then go and re-read Lillian Greenwood’s resignation speech. He sacrificed political capital, abandoned a cause he repeatedly talks about and shafted his own shadow-minister to fight with his own party instead.

He won’t win anyway. All of those guilt-wrangling social media updates won’t even be seen by enough people to make any measurable difference. Anybody taken in by this sanctimonious call for unity will find their vote used for only one thing, helping Corbyn stay in charge of Labour after the election.

You’re a hypocrite. Because if you’d wanted to keep the Tories out you’d have backed away when it became clear he wasn’t going to be any good at the job. When his IRA and Hamas support became clear you’d have thought, “Hang on, this isn’t going to play well to the nation”, instead of excusing it or trying to twist it into his personal crusade to bring about world peace. When he was weak on anti-Semitism you’d have disowned him and found a stronger candidate, instead of accusing Jews of plotting against him. You wouldn’t have dismissed polls as biased or false. You wouldn’t have found excuses for Copeland. You wanted this. You wanted a Labour party that couldn’t possibly take on the Tories and (slow clap) you got it.

Fuck you all. I just wish the rest of us weren’t going to get fucked as well.

A new deputy leader?

So the mandate of the labour members should be ignored?

Not very democratic is it?

He said elected, though. I suppose there could be another democratic election if he was challenged like Corbyn was.

As far as I can see, the only ones who could be offended by that tweet are those who are in fact not voting Labour. Pretty much everyone on here is, so why the outrage?

A new deputy leader should be elected he is hopeless.

Can't believe I voted for the waste of space, seems to spend more time plotting against the party.
i can't believe you have the fucking nerve to call tom Watson hopeless whilst at the same time praising the inept fuckers running the party

As far as I can see, the only ones who could be offended by that tweet are those who are in fact not voting Labour. Pretty much everyone on here is, so why the outrage?
Because she's effectively calling anyone not voting for labour a supporter of child abuse and helping to kill the disabled. She's a stupid little girl who needs to grow up and realise who the real problem is, and it's not the people who aren't going to vote for labour

He said elected, though. I suppose there could be another democratic election if he was challenged like Corbyn was.

Which would surely only happen if he failed to win a vote of no confidence of the people he worked with and lead.

Of course this would never happen, as any self respecting individual would step down if they couldn't carry the confidence of their colleagues as it makes there position totally untenable.

I reproduced "the rant" in full. I'm not outraged. I do hope (probably in vain) it curtails any more sanctimonious calls for unity.

And for the record, I'm not anti-JC, I'm anti-gift-wrapping elections for the Tories.

Obviously, it would be up to those who want another election to make it happen. It would clearly be even more pointless than challenging Corbyn last year.

I'm just saying that Corbyn was elected democratically, challenged democratically, and then re-elected democratically. I imagine there are similar rules for democratically electing a new deputy, though I'm obviously guessing :).

Because it assumes that if you think Corbyn is a bit of a wanker, you're going to vote Tory - even if you've voted Labour for longer than any of these Momentum bellends.

its the attitude that annoys me and makes me realise that even after the inevitable battering the wooden woman will be in charge for the next decade because they'll be blaming all sorts for their failures.

Honestly hope there is a convincing beating, Corbyn doesn't resign and the ones with sense either split or join the lib dems and let the party that was hijacked fade into mediocrity

It's a bit sad that just weeks before a general election there is even a need for any sort of call for unity.

How does it assume that? It explicitly mentions only the people who voted against Labour because they thought Corbyn is a wanker. Doesn't say anything about anyone who thinks Corbyn is a wanker, but still voted Labour.

Is interesting that he's not taking a more high profile role in the campaign, but would you actually welcome that Trada? Would Jeremy's little group even give him one?

They forgot to tell the 1000's of grassroot members who are out delivering leaflets everywhere.

What about all the grassroots activists who've been doing it for Labour for years, nay decades, who now turn up on doorsteps and are told that they used to vote Labour but are wobbling now because of Corbyn's ineptitude? What about the MPs who've worked hard for their constituencies but are facing losses because Corbyn, McDonnell and Abbott are fucking up Labour's perception nationally?

You're a real piece of work. It's delusion. Sadly, you're not alone - there's loads of you. Hopefully, McDonnell won't get to fix it so we have to put up with your next messiah after Corbyn finally gets fucked off - and not because we're brainwashed by the MSM, but because he's fucking useless and can't persuade floating voters, or even previous Labour stalwarts, to vote for his inept leadership of the only party capable of making a positive difference in their lives.

The words are more informative than the tweet from some random, that was only included for illustrative purposes, you're obsessing over.

I'd think so. Going to be tight in a few areas for Labour there.

somewhere where the Tories can actually win, i.e. a marginal. Instead of doing a rally in a solid labour area.
