Owen Smith

[ZZ Jack]

What a slimeball, weasel of a bloke he is. I'm no fan of Labour, but why have they not got the likes of Alan Johnson standing, if they want credibility?

Hello Owen here

[Splott Dave]

The sooner Owen Smith crosses the floor and joins the Tories, the sooner his views will start to make sense.

Are you still a lefty?

I still have a social conscience if that's what you mean.

Would you say people like Owen Jones (not Smith) have a social conscience? we may as well get this out of the way before you leave us again

Yes Mrs R I do know the difference between the two of them. One is a self-serving slimey little shit, full of his own self-importance while advancing non-problems on an unsuspecting public. The other one wants to be leader of the Labour party.

Looking at Owen smiths policies I'm not sure that is a valid comment.
I'd prefer Corbyn to succeed, but I don't think Smith is from the right of the party - just an opportunist

Check out how many of his policies have been directly copied from Jeremy Corbyn's policies, who previously had advanced them or presented them. Corbyn is a conviction politician, not an opportunist, he has principles and is prepared to stick with them without fear or favour, or any regard for his own personal advancement.

That may be true, but none of it makes Owen Smith a Tory. Which he isnt.

If he's a socialist, I'm an Olympic sprinter. I would have thought lobbying (that's what Cameron did) on behalf of big pharma to sell off major parts of the NHS, is not the best way to go about trying to establish socialist credentials.

Does that mean you think all "lefties" have a social conscience?

It's a valid question.

I think within the context of a democracy, the major advances for social improvement and societal improvements have traditionally come from the left of politics.

At least Owen Smith cannot be accused of being an original thinker, unlike Jeremy Corbyn.

We are in perfect accord once again.

Henry VIII said that to one of his wives just before he decided that she would look better if she was a head shorter.

You have to admit he's a fair judge of character though.

I'm very superficial and I usually judge a book by its cover. To me Owen Smith looks like another Monsieur Hollande. The latter is a useless traitor who only thinks about his next shag and what his treat his celebrated chefs are preparing for dinner. The fact that Owen Smith speaks French increases the similarity.

When Mitt Romney ran for President he was accused of being able to speak French and that cost him a lot of votes. I think Owen Smith might have the same problem in some constituencies. He should do what Edward Heath did – admit to knowing the language but refuse to make any concessions to the French accent. When the French heard their beautiful language being pronounced in Heath's upper class English accent they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
