    As I said in a further post to someone else if you read, I didn’t say everyone and yourself in particular I said some and gave the comments about being an IRA sympathiser etc as proof that some people had taken the media mantra.
    I don’t need a history of the Labour Party thanks I’m well aware of it’s diversity or fractious as you’d rather put it .
    The Party has always been a broad church and encompasses lots of views we don’t need another root and branch we got record votes last elections . The issue was Brexit not policies imo .

    These days Labour is all about young, middle class students who vote for them in numbers because it makes the feel good about themselves. The days of it being a party for working class people in small northern towns is long gone, and they realise that otherwise they would have appointed Lisa Nandy as leader.

    Thing is working class policies chills the bones of most of our multi rich media barrons etc so if anyone raises the slightest inkling of bemoaning rights lost the media Barrons unite and attack like a snarling dog .
    Case in point that Corbyn has never been as what they described him but it worked in certain quarters .

    as well as the introduction of EMA for students 16-19 in full time education .The New Deal was replaced by the Work Programme which only provided limited work experience for long term unemployed.

    If there was a vote today I’d be voting for Boris again.
    They have made a hash of Covid - but generally the Tories are more trustworthy.
    Latest mistake Labour are making is trying to gain voters through their over exuberance of BLM.
    Again it’s turning people against them.

    I can’t remember a more untrustworthy government than this . The Cummings fiasco highlighted how devious and dishonest they all are

    Do you think Corbyn could have done any worse that the current shower?

    I can see that you don't give a toss about Black Lives Matter.
    As for voting for Johnson, that's up to you but personally I think you'll stand for egg under cap.

    This post really sums up what I believe you are, and others on here for that matter, not a WUM at all.I know every village has its idiot and you are certainly this board’s. However, you’re much more than that including: Uncaring, shallow, selfish, self-centred, and going borrow a phrase from you thick as fook.

    Just a thought apropos of nothing...
    It's amazing the number of people who are always champing at the bit to smear Labour with anti semitism yet don't give a flying f**k about BLM.
