THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Looks like Comrade Corby is taking labour full loony..



Momentum loyalty test planned for would-be Labour MPs


Contenders asked to sign contract to back Corbyn’s objectives and party manifesto to win group’s support

Saturday 25 November 2017 21.30 GMT





Leftwing pressure group Momentum is asking Labour parliamentary contenders to sign a contract that ties them to the “political objectives” set out in the organisation’s constitution to secure its support in upcoming selection battles, the Observer has learned.

Several contenders to be Labour candidates in marginal seats are understood to have signed the contract. The 13-point “political accord for Momentum-backed candidates” asks candidates to “work to ensure the Labour manifesto (subject to future policy development) is fully implemented once Labour are in government”.


Included in the signed contract is the commitment to “revitalise the Labour party by building on the values, energy and enthusiasm of the Jeremy for Leader campaign”. Some Labour MPs are known to be alarmed by the move, following an attempt by Labour activists to unseat the leader of Haringey council last month. Claire Kober fought off a challenge to win reselection in her ward, but it was seen as a warning that Momentum plans to support candidates that back Jeremy Corbyn at all levels of the party.

One Labour MP, who asked to remain anonymous, said: “It reflects a Stalinist approach to politics that Momentum would come up with such a contract for candidates. It has worrying implications for our democracy that there could be MPs in parliament who have signed away their right to independent judgment,” he said.

I suppose it is better than the present fascist 1930's approach of the present tory/ukipper right wing government at the present government's reactionaries and Colonel Blimps bending to populist ideas to feather their own nests.

Of course, the latter propped up with bribes from off-shore tax havens.

There is now a possibility because of here racial background of them having a black child or grandchild and also possibly with ginger hair. So effing what?

I see Ocado was the most hated share @ 17.44 on 21st November, those shorters would have been hit hard with today's big rise.

KidA - 28 Nov 2017 12:54 - 79621 of 81564

Momentum/Labour get in, claim they will bring democracy for 'the people', do nothing of the sort as latent greed and lust for power develops and consumes the leaders. It is laughable for one side to claim only the other is corrupt.
