    Even if you agree with what LB says, there is no doubt the Tory press will be salivating at the prospect of labelling her 'continuity Corbyn'
    Sadly that experiment has failed, although In my mind Britain would have been a far better place with a true left wing Government.
    Anyway that is history now, I am prepared to accept a compromise with someone like Nandy or Starmer, although in fairness they are well to the left of Tony Blair.
    The fact is the right wing media and establishment rule Britain. Clearly that's what the bulk of the electorate want. More fool them.

    I thought Jess Phillips would have been more popular and got my vote.

    She reminds me of a woman who as soon she gets up she has a mug of tea and a fag in her dressing gown.

    We have labour voters who are shit scared of Left Wing policies. Starmer will get the gig and implement his Blairite policies and all of the pretend lefties can breath a sigh of relief. He's ****ing right wing.

    I am still grieving over the election result. Any Labour government would be better than what has been voted for.

    He's Tory lite in my opinion. I'm angry at the election result, can't be arsed to go over it all again and the reasons why. Let's see what Boris does for the working class heartlands that voted him in.

    The truth is that places like Ebbw Vale only had immigrants to blame for their plight as the politicians on all sides had abandoned them years ago, they had nobody left to shout at.

    Nice to see I'm still getting under your skin.

    People do get swayed by the press. I've had several discussions with people where they'd believed some bollocks they'd read in the Mail (usually) and got quite shirty when I proved them wrong with cold hard facts.

    One hilarious goon on social media once had the opinion that Corbyn was a poor leader of the opposition. I asked him how he formed that opinion. Turns out he didn't watch much TV, have much interest in politics, it's what he kept reading in the Sun. At that point you realise you are dealing with a fool.

    I don't think it's that simple. The working class have never really had much of a problem with immigrants, historically they've had to mix and get on, and on the whole, they have. Places like Ebbw Vale have had everything taken away from it. It was once a proud hard working town where the people were progressive and in employment, jobs that meant something and benefited the local community, and a nod towards education in order for the next generation to better themselves. Successive governments took that away from them citing economics as their excuse to take away any power these people had, when the industry was abandoned then so were the people.

    The EU means nothing to alot of people who are third generation poor and have had any form of motivation sucked out of them, to many, being poor is all they know and all of the disadvantages that go with that, not just educationally but health and living standards. When people are desperate they make desperate decisions, doesn't mean they're stupid

    If the Labour Party elect Long-Bailey then its members get everything they deserve. The likes of McDonnell Long Bailey Abbott should be confined to the back benches at minimum. McDonnell said he takes responsibility for the result. Thats bollox all talk. If thats the case John resign give up your seat and lets put Caroline Flint up in your area.

    Lisa Nandy for me. Id take Starmer.

    Anyone but Long Bailey. Put her up and im done with Labour.

    Re: Unite Union are closet tories

    I think some working class people do have a problem with immigration. They see immigrants as stealing their jobs, giving them longer waiting lists to see a doctor, while pushing up house prices. Virtually none of this is true, I'd love to see the reports into this that Theresa May stopped being published. I find that curious in the South Wales Valleys as they're built on immigration. I know of several people in their 70s and 80s (and the generation above them that have gone) who were vehemently anti-English yet had English parents. I know others who have seen the same. That logic mystifies me. It's the same odd logic where doctors from overseas, especially places in the Middle East, suffer racist abuse from patients who would rather not be treated than be treated by them. It's the same as Brexit logic, where I've seen people say they know it will make things worse but they'd rather things be worse than things as they are. Again, struggling to work that one out.
