    A nice day to be outdoors :)

    The DUP outrage from the left is amusing. Broon in 2010 & Miliband in 2015 tried to do a deal with them:

    And had it been headline news at the time, what makes you think that any of us would have been less disapproving than we are now?

    Notably, a great many Conservative voters are, rightly, expressing disapproval just as any of us with any sense of the history would have disagreed then, regardless of political leanings.

    Besides, you keep confusing Blair's Neu Liabour for the party that's ressurected in its place.


    eta: Just had a skim back over your posting history and so much is explained.
    You obviously either think Maggie T was a bit too Marxist for your taste or you've spent the last 6 years trolling.

    Either way, your opinion is irrelevant to any sensible debate so that's me out as far as your posts are concerned. Toodle pip.

    Yes lol, no possibility of Corbyn doing a deal with the DUP. I don't think they're keen on IRA sympathizers.

    Have the loonies at order-order accepted yet that their continual empty news didn't work in getting their beloved Tory party a huge majority?

    Care to point out anything on https://www.order-order.com that's untrue? It's very straightforward to sue them for Libel if that was the case?

    (I understand that it's extremely inconvenient to Corbyn supporters when a website points out a stream of TRUE stories that reflect badly on him & his followers).

    That aside, when will the loonies at Momentum accept that their continual empty news didn't manage anything better than another hammering defeat?

    Yes the election did go horribly wrong, everything was done about as bad as it could have been, but yet Labour still didn't win, did they? So I'm optimistic for the future, but (in danger of continually repeating myself) the Tory party needs to up its game, and I would put forward Ruth Davidson as the woman to lead us through the next decade or so.

    By the way, how come 'the loonies' got more votes than you? It is also strange that 'the loonies' in general earn more than the non loonies, please explain?

    If this is true then it's utterly reprehensible from the Labour Party. There is no excuse for cosying up to groups such as this.

    I dont think you've seen enough of her to conclude she is the future for the Conservatives.
    Yes she did well in this GE winning by focussing on a protest vote, but we have seen very little else from her.

    She's known as well for doing a u-turn

    Labour never did do a deal with them though.

    The Tories did.
