Perish the thought that Newsnight might be cherry-picking *that* sort of Leaver for their audience, rather than the vast majority of more rational ones... the rest of the audience was rational, including the Leavers. Perish the thought that Brexiteers aren't ALL rational - given the campaign to leave was led by one who isn't.....TBC in EU thread if necessary as I've plenty of lovely new links to read.... |

Labour have suspended a candidate in the upcoming local elections for alleged Holocaust denial. Just in time - I think the deadline is Apr 5th for selecting candidates. |

It'll be interesting to see the next set of voting intention polls... People are cheering his name at football stadiums across the country. These right wing smears are backfiring as people are turning on the BBTory and press and seeing right through thrn. Mwaaa |

Let's have a source for this no-doubt balanced and unbiased report that says this. I'll find it. Given that you've chosen to grace your presence on this thread, with what I imagine people would consider an invaluable contribution that definitely adds to the conversation, have you managed to provide your evidence for your claim? |

Labour have suspended a candidate in the upcoming local elections for alleged Holocaust denial. This is the part of the whole affair that still puzzles me. He is accused of highlighting a report by the Red Cross proving that the Holocaust didn't happen. This makes no sense at all. The Red Cross publishing a report saying the Holocaust didn't happen seems about as likely as an FBI report saying JFK wasn't assassinated. |

This is the new age of ignorance. |

They actually did? Experiment for yourself. They HAD to edit it for it appear as it did in the photo. The fact that anyone felt the need to run an independent fact check over this issue just shows how bonkers a certain subsection of the Coybynistas happen to be. |

Wrong.
They edited that photo. They changed the shape and shading and contrast. Just shading would NOT change its shape. If the BBC reporters didn't salivate at the sound of Corbyn and be so biased, MAAAYBE a pithy apology would cut it. Not anymore. |

People are cheering his name at football stadiums across the country. These right wing smears are backfiring as people are turning on the BBTory and press and seeing right through thrn. Mwaaa I would cheer his name if he was going to tax the top 5%, nationalise the railways, save the NHS, give the public sector a payrise, free tuition fees, free school meals. Sounds a great place! The reality is this is a complete fantasy. People sing his names in clubs too, mainly cos it's quite a catchy (and highly unoriginal chant). But it doesn't hide from the fact the leadership of the Labour party have lost touch with reality. The response to the anti-semitism row has been awful. I was as surprised by any as Labour at last years election but it's at a point right again now where it's about to hit turmoil. Brexit is going to to split right in two very shortly unless Corbyn comes out and says what the parties view is. |

Queefy, Corbyn's choice of hats is not proof of anything. Other than paranoia and an attempt to change the conversation from his:
a) lack of initial acceptance of British intelligence reports b) automatically coming up with theories to apologise for Putin c) avoid talking about his Brexit attitudes d) totally ignore Leave campaign reports of corruption e) avoidance of a problem with anti-semitism which has been more than authenticated inside Labour ranks from Labour supporters and which has been simmering since he got into power. Newsnight, which is the subject of your inference, gives everyone a right to reply - which they did the following night and the point was made quite firmly - and delves into every topic with relative fairness. I get annoyed when they give airtime to nutters and liars, but they wouldnt be doing their job if they didnt give a right to respond. Corby could agree to appear on newsnight in a second - but he doesn't. Why not? Because they would ask him difficult questions he doesnt have answers for. So he chooses to let his supporters make all sorts of attempts to shift the issues onto trivia. If he has a problem with Newsnight he should go on it and say so. And then stay for long enough to be probed on important issues that affect us all. That is, after all, his job as Leader Of The Opposition. His job isn't to ignore problems till they go away or blow up in his face. |
