What are you objecting to, training provided for MPs, Councillors?

For someone who regularly claims to have no interest in politics, what motivated you to bring this to the attention of the forum?

a purge

some one on the forum has to stick up for The likes if Corbyn and
Ken loach

life time supporters of the party

Transam sticks up for justice
The poor the meek the oppressed

And democracy

 

[charliegolf]

Two adjectives: electable, unelectable. Labour needs to decide how it wants the plebs to view them. Starmer is more Blair than Corbyn. One 'style' or 'shade' of Labour is is electable, the other isn't.

Yeah, right.
Dishonest, disingenuous, duplicitous, fantasist.

Corbyn supporters disagree........

Quite Notch, but you and I both know how that went for them... We are at the point in time when either we are or we aren't going to see Labour emerge from the modern-day version of the, 'Foot/Kinnock' era.

 

[EFLImpudence]

Labour won a lot more seats than the Liberals or Greens.

What should the Liberals and Greens do to make themselves more electable?



It's a stupid premise.

Parties and candidates are supposed to state what they believe in and stand for and win or lose; not just state what they think the public will vote for next time round whatever that might be.



Johnson is popular - everyone be like Johnson.

 

[transam]

Yeah, right.
Dishonest, disingenuous, duplicitous, fantasist.

er no

we’re ever there is injustice Transam will speak up


Tis a family tradition

 

[AngleEyes]

Yeah, right.
Dishonest, disingenuous, duplicitous, fantasist.

On that note, I'll accept your submission.

EFL, was that for me?
Labour had 13 years in power from a centre-left position, when the Torys were centre-right. They can (but not to the Momentum-type lefties) be in that 'Blair-ish' space if they want, and still be miles left of Boris' mob. Labour were always doomed in 2010, not because of politics, but because 'it was time'. So it will be again. When? When Labour decide that 'Daily Star Labour' translates to 'communism' to the average bloke, and act accordingly.

No, just a general observation.

I do not agree with the thinking that a party or a candidate "should say and do whatever it can to be elected".

 

[charliegolf]

EFL, agreed.
