    Nice piece pal and you can remember the good times you had with your pal every time you smoke from it, that's a bit special
  2. That's a man who get's it Corbyn has been smashing the neoliberal consensus that got us into the situation we're in now where there's no real difference between the main parties so we've no real choice when it comes to elections. Both parties need clear and distinct principles and policy for our style of democracy to really work, IMO.
  3. You certainly are loyal to Corbyn ha ha . But, do you not think the real leftist side of politics is now out of fashion and dated. The world has moved on and now we are faced with important issues such as people coming over here and trying to kill us, the massive benefit cost and uncontrolled immigration. The working man has been shafted by labour and can we really say that Corbyn is for the real grass-roots working man?I'm honestly not that loyal to Corbyn, there's others I'd rather see leading the party but he's our best shot at getting the badly needed reforms made so he's got my backing f
  4. And I was in a room the other week with 100s of ex-miners all singing Corbyn's praises. It was only a few weeks ago he was greeted like a hero at the Durham Miners Gala. I'm sure we could trade anecdotes like that all day but they're pretty meaningless in the grand scheme of things. He has support among traditional working class Labour voters but there's plenty that have been seriously turned off Labour since the Blair years and it's going to be no easy job winning them back. I don't even really see Corbyn as the man to do it TBH he's just the man to lay the ground work for it to be possible

    Organic has come a long pal the results are better than with commerical feeds when done right IMO
  6. Pretty much every single poster on here voted UKIP in the last election yet they only got 3,881,129 votes. The political views of the majority on here are in the minority when it comes to the general public, it's not a representative sample of any demographic other than hunters.

  8. I shouldn't even dignify this pathetic drivel with a response but I can't pass up the opportunity to laugh my fecking arse off at the idea of the Guardian being some kind of Corbyn supporting mouthpiece :laugh: :laugh: all the major papers are against Corbyn and the Guardian has been particularly hostile towards him recently.

  10. Honestly all the talk of electability with the GE 4 years away is just a distraction from one the main points of Corbyn's leadership, reforming the internal party structures and giving more power to the members. Something that absolutely terrifies the out of touch careerists and the establishment as a whole. It looks like Labour are headed for a long stint in opposition regardless of who's leading the party so might aswell make good use of the time and get rid of the neoliberal Blairite cancer while we've got the chance. Doing the whole country a service IMO
  11. Polls are part of the picture no doubt but the numbers are no worse than I'd expect considering we're in the middle of probably the most bitter and public battle the party has ever seen and the Tories have just had a nice smooth hand over to a relatively popular new leader. The fact he was doing relatively well in the polls all things considered before all this shit shows the current drop is the fault of the plotters.What's silly is using polls 4 years out from an election to try and predict the result If the PLP would unite behind him Labour would have as a good a chance as they could ho

  13. The worst predictions only show Labour losing around 60 seats, the one prediction you can make with almost 100% certainty is that Labour will be the official opposition if they don't win the next GE. Even if there was a split (which is looking more and more unlikely) and they managed to do well enough to become the official oppostion the new party would have all the policies you hate most about Labour but according you and the press they'd be way more electable than Labour under Corbyn so surely a bad thing from your point of view?

  15. Losing the next GE would be a small price to pay for reforming the internal structures of the Labour party but proclaiming that it's a dead certainty based on some polls taken in the middle of an extremely bitter leadership battle is just ridiculous. Assuming the next GE is in 4 years the political landscape in this country is so unstable at the moment that anyone making solid predictions on the result are pulling them out of their arse. Labour were always going to have an uphill battle in the next GE whoever is leader but Corbyn with his anti Westminster establishment credentials and the
  16. Not really surprising is it, the Tories are enjoying a new leader bounce and Labour are very publicly tearing themselves apart. Before the failed coup and all the shit flinging in the press Labour were within a few points of the Tories and actually ahead in a few polls. Polls 4 years out from the GE don't really mean much, so much can happen in that time. Of course there is the possibility of an early GE...
  17. Cheech & f'kin Chong feelin right left out. So dont forget the f'kin stoners I'm feeling all discriminated against
  18. Maybe that's down to all the hard left wing groups now joining labour after years in the wilderness as no candidates from TUSC are banging the drum any more in my area for what its worth imho labour will never get to govern the country in the next election.Do you really think there was over 300,000 total members of the various hard left groups? Try barely 10,000. The massive amounts of people joining the Labour party recently are just normal everyday folk that Corbyn's politics resonate with, many of them have never been involved in politics before. Go to a local Momentum meeting see how ma
  19. Great stuff pal, anyone who puts the effort in to learn a trade to better their lives has my respect, even more so doing it later in life. ATB pal, onwards and upwards
  20. How did you ruin your first dog Gaz? Impatient, short tempered, never built a bond. Didn't help he was a saluki greyhound and I was clueless.Fair play to you pal we can only learn from our mistakes if we're honest with ourselves and sounds like you've done just that Reckon you hit the nail on the head with your first post too I learnt lots from that dog mate. He only lived 12 months. Killed himself when he hit a tree lamping. Was a blessing in disguise really because he was a real head case and definitely had issues. But I didn't help those issues and probably created some of them. I
  21. I bet I wouldn't ........there is a better than even chance that there would be the smell of yams and petuli oil in the air ! Lol Plenty of that type about I'm not going to lie but I reckon most lads on here would be very surprised by the amount of "ordinary" working class folk there
  22. Never thought of that . . . if he's having it rough and not selling any nets should we not have another whip round to help him out? I'm sure BGD will second the motion. . . lol. Already sent him £100 over PayPal Come on lads dig deep, Andy needs us again
