That daily mail front page after the vote was so predictable and from the paper that published Hurrah for the Blackshirts!!

Headlines such as "Smash the saboteurs", "Enemies of the people" and Thursday's shameful front page would be bad enough at any time. For them all to have come within just 18 months of an MP being murdered just makes them even worse. If anybody can find equally vile headlines from one of the few left-leaning papers in this country, then I will be happy to condemn them as well.

*Starts digging through the front pages of the Morning Star from the past few months, then stops after realising there's more productive things I could do with my time, like trimming my toenails.*

Morning Star prob wouldn't be considered mainstream tho!

Just thought it might be worth mentioning that the political editor of the Daily Mail has left to go and work in Downing Street.

Oh Christ that's all we need!!

The revolving door between media and Tories and Tories and media, including BBTory, is gross.

I assume you're also opposed to Corbyn having ex-Guardian journos, like Seumas 'America deserved 9/11' Milne, working for him?

When it is from ONE source, it is not so institutionalised as the Tories with MANY DIFFERENT, including state 'non-biased' broadcaster, sources of shared employment. However, yes I would like to see the revolving door shut to all of them.

You do realise that until relatively recently, Corbyn's deputy communications director was someone who had been employed by, in your own words, the "state 'non-biased' broadcaster? A quick Google search would have told you that, and if I dug even further, you could probably find other individuals within Corbyn's team with previous media experience, across many different media entities. It's kind of important for political parties to understand the inner workings of as many media organizations as possible, and the Labour Party is no exception.

 

I'm not sure if the Lib Dems has much of a communications team. I imagine its Head of Communications once held the lofty position of Chief Volleyball Correspondent for the Grimsby Mercury...

Before the 2010 election the Lib Dems had a very effective press team. Unfortunately, they didn't prove to be as good at the job for a party in government as they were for a party in opposition. That left them getting stitched up by the Tories on a host of issues.

This appointment is apparently from the man who wrote of our Judges "Enemies Of The People", so Mrs May's wet response to MP death threats triggered by another Mail headline looks as shallow and insincere as all the previous ones from the woman who sent vans round streets telling foreigners to leave the country. I expect we can see whoever wrote the most recent Mail headline joining her team in the near future unless, presumably, one of her colleagues has actually been murdered.

 

Just saying....

I have been reminded of a front page headline in the Times in January - May to EU: Give us a fair deal or you'll be crushed. How do people think that is going?

Something tells me May forgot to suggest headline writers ought to act a little more responsibly.

There's been a lot of fannying about for no actual progress. For the lack of progress that has been made they should have had a basic agreement about 3 weeks after the EU published their position paper.

 

Only real point they got some potential movement on was the Divorce bill but the EU never really put a concrete number on it so it was always speculation and leaks about how much it was. The cynic in me wonders if this was leaked a little higher than it ever truly was so that it looked a little like a win for the Government, but then I remember this lot are incompetent f***ers who couldn't piss themselves so I ruled that out.

Milne isn't your average journalist tbf!

Now that Damian Green has been sacked /forced to resign, when is Davy Davy resigning in honour to support his right to 'w*** at work' ??

If he also went then I dare say a significant proportion of all MP's would have to go. ;)
