I know many Labour supporters who are the opposite though, Dan. Thirsty... after years of austerity, to see their party back in power.
We've had salesman and spin doctors running the country for a long time now, Jeremy Corbyn is the antithesis to this.
He was one of a select few who was against the worst foreign policy decision of all time, to invade Iraq in 2003.

I wonder how many of our current parliamentarians can say that? They're a dying breed.

What would Robin Cook think of all this were he still alive...? For our younger members, Robin Cook was the bloke who told Tony Blair not to invade Iraq, but instead got the sack for watching the 2000 guineas in The Foreign Office (probably while Tony Blair was out in Camp David meeting George W Bush), and died shortly afterwards.

The Labour Party made its choice to go back to an old-left party when they put Jeremy Corbyn in, (thanks in part to how far Tony Blair was to the right), now it's time they seen it through.

To hell with the dissenters I say.

[QUOTE="The Fortune Teller, post: 2604546, member: 66421"] I know many Labour supporters who are the opposite though, Dan. Thirsty... after years of austerity, to see their party back in power. We've had salesman and spin doctors running the country for a long time now, Jeremy Corbyn is the antithesis to this. He was one of a select few who was against the worst foreign policy decision of all time, to invade Iraq in 2003. I wonder how many of our current parliamentarians can say that? They're a dying breed. What would Robin Cook think of all this were he still alive...? For our younger members, Robin Cook was the bloke who told Tony Blair not to invade Iraq, but instead got the sack for watching the 2000 guineas in The Foreign Office (probably while Tony Blair was out in Camp David meeting George W Bush), and died shortly afterwards. :( The Labour Party made its choice to go back to an old-left party when they put Jeremy Corbyn in, (thanks in part to how far Tony Blair was to the right), now it's time they seen it through.
