diamond_geezer Posted September 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 You got me. I didn't pay the extra £25 , but the initial investment was a winner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you rather have the Red variety? You might be waiting a while as they're quite busy at the moment trying to extinguish each other! I'm sure the 'intelligible' would have managed an X if they were allowed. Why is it that more was not made in the media of the purge of thousands upon thousands of Labour Party members? It's not 'trots' or 'entryists' folk should be worried about but the Stalinist tactics of stripping members of their democratic right to vote on an industrial scale! First they went to court to deprive members of their vote. Then they sat trawling social media to flush out their 'undesirables', judged by their posts, tweets and retweets, before being purged from the party for no good reason and without appeal or redress. Some were banned from voting for supporting or retweeting Corbyn's allies. Others were banned for retweeting tweets made years earlier by members of other Parties or proscribed organisations. Is this the thought police? Constituency chairmen and women have been expelled along with constituency secretaries and even local councillors. Members have been expelled for actions that pre-dated their joining of the party. And you haven't seen it reported because they are backed by the state broadcaster, who perpetrate bias, paid for by the public on pain of imprisonment. On Question Time, Panorama and the rest, riding roughshod over all norms of fairness in an attempt to subvert their leadership election. The issue is not settled after two elections in a year though. The latest front-man Owen's Myth is gone but they who dislike 'Neverendums' will continue with another challenge soon. Labour will continue chewing it's own leg off and this situation is no good for anyone! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 TBH, I'm more interested in whether Kezza managed to work out how to register a vote on this, rather than where Sandy thinks the SNP sit on the political spectrum or how DG thinks his £3 influenced a forgone conclusion. Going by her interview with Gordon Brewer yesterday, probably not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Kezza was all over the place in that interview and the satellite delay made it even worse, if that's possible. It made it look like she took loads of time to think of a reply and then just spouted whatever contradictory nonsense came into her head. Then you had what looked liked Brewer sitting in stunned silence, while the depths of her stupidity sank in. You'd think someone would be having a word with her by now and saying 'look you're a nice lassie, but thinking is not really your strong suit. Just read from the cards we give you. And if you're struggling with that, just faint. We'll blame it on the SNP.' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandman396 Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 It is sad the dearth of political talent in Scotland these days. You have Nicola and Ruth and that is about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Ruth? The same Ruth that berated the Scottish government for their performance running the NHS, only for it to be pointed out she was using Englands figures and it was her party's failings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
