I cannot believe just how bad these lefty scum are.

Fantasist, lunatic, imbecile morons doesn't even begin to describe them.

Not to forget a massively racist Shadow Secretary of State for International Development

If any white MP had dared to utter just one of the equivalent statements Dianne Abbott has come out with they would have been instantly sacked. Her vile racism (she's also mind-numbingly stupid, more than you'd think possible, but that's besides the point) has been ignored because she isn't white (or male).

If anyone needs reminding:

"white people like playing divide and rule"

"(Clegg & Cameron are) Two posh white boys"

And that's just off the top of my head and what she's been caught on record saying.

She also said that Finns weren't suitable as nurses "because they had never met black people".

Assembly voting intentions are CON 23%, LAB 39%, LDEM 6%, Plaid 18%, UKIP 13% for the constituencies, CON 24%, LAB 34%, LDEM 5%, Plaid 18%, UKIP 14% for the regional vote. Roger Scully’s commentary is over on the Elections in Wales blog here and has an Assembly seat projection of 29 seats for Labour, 12 for the Tories, 10 Plaid, 8 UKIP and one for the Lib Dems.

Currently seats in the Welsh Assembly are:

30 Labour
15 PC
14 Tory
5 Lib Dem

So the polls seem to be saying that UKIP are going to take seats from PC and Lib Dem which you could argue are the protest vote parties in Wales.

No particular sign of a Corbyn bounce in terms of seat returns despite a pretty healthy increase in polling returns in Wales for him.

Early signs that Mr Corbyn is just going to be preaching to the choir or a rogue poll? Only YOU can decide.

The conference is going a lot better than you hoped isn't it hence the usual hate filled right wing hyperbole on here from our right wing 'contributors'. Jezza is making his mark; it aint dull, isnt spun or choreographed. Its very refreshing and what's more he's clearly got people talking about what he thinks.....changing the boundaries of political debate! Just what we needed in this country. Shake up the complacent Daily Fail and Torygraph readers.......... The yahoos that believed they were voting for economic stability and that we we were in the sunny uplands of recovery. Meanwhile the FTSE drops yet another 150 points and porky Dave bestrides the world political scene like a colossus. That was irony by the way!;)

I lived through the 60's, 70's and 80's and totally agree... the tories haven't changed have they. The market is god and you should defer to your betters in the establishment because they know best.

which bits of the period did you like best?


the Corbyn/McConnell support for the IRA bombers (maybe McConnell can tell us his best joke about Omagh)


or the endless strikes?


that only 5% of the young people could go to Uni?


that women knew there place as stayed by the kitchen sink?


or do you hate the rise in affluence of all the ordinary people who are much now better off that in those days

I grew up in the seventies, blissfully happy time for me and my family. I left school in 1982 to a YTS scheme and the growth of rampant consumerism and the me me society, afflictions the country still suffers from. Corbyn's and McDonnell's albeit still sketchy economic vision for this country excites me. Kenneth Clarke's warning that Corbynomics might just capture the zeitgeist of an austerity punch drunk nation in the coming years could come to pass.

difficult to view
-spend more
-borrow more
-tax more
as an exciting new economic vision




interesting that you sneer at the working classes acquiring consumer goods and call spending more than we earn as 'austerity'.


Truly the Corbyn/McConnell/Abbot double speak is affecting your soul
