Should I vote Labour

This is Bright Blue's website:

www.brightblue.org.uk/index.php/about/parliamentary-supporters

Its parliamentary supporters are a mixed bunch and I'm struggling to see some of them as "liberal", but it's worth listening to some of them.

I have never though that all Conservatives are "nasty". Some of them have laudable aims, although I personally wouldn't agree with how they want to achieve them

Looking at the list of names Fitzy, I don't think the Bright Blue MPs have much in common.

Your Buzzfeed link says nothing that has not been said before by some posters , the links you constantly use on GN are connecting posters to ultra left / pro Corbyn blogs/sites such as The Canary, Another Angry Voice, Skwakbox etc. etc. who are the basis of the Buzzfeed article.

The ultra left / pro Corbyn blogs /sites are not promoting the Labour Party only the Labour Party under Corbyn.

It was an interesting read and personally I would be a little more worried than you obviously are about using such sites for fear of any possible repercussion, albeit an extremely unlikely event, but if the article is to be believed there is an issue with a story that you have posted links to on GN re HSBC.

Out of interest, do you ever have a concern one day you will put a link on GN and drag posters into responding that could be challenged as being libellous or do you believe your links are not accountable?

Did you watch Marr this morning?
He didn't seem to think anything on Buzzfeed is libellous.

The whole point of the alt-left is that they cannot get their information across in the right wing press.

Corbyn is the leader of the Labour party. What's wrong with promoting the labour party under Corbyn?

I have Marr to catch up with but I was not thinking of Buzzfeed as being a cause for libellous comment and my post made it clear.

You didn't answer the question I notice.

"Out of interest, do you ever have a concern one day you will put a link on GN and drag posters into responding that could be challenged as being libellous or do you believe your links are not accountable?"

As for promoting Labour / Corbyn as against the Labour Party / the PLP it is the well used term of 'A party within a Party'.

Dennis Skinner.

How is Corbyn a party within a party? He is the leader of the party and voted in. May hasn't been voted in as leader of the Tories.

I don't understand what you are trying to do. ?

You invited posters to comment on your link re Altra Left sites such as Another Angry Voice, The Canary, Skwakbox in a piece by Buzzfeed.

I made a comment, asked a question and I seriously do not understand your subsequent posts.

May hasn't been voted in as leader of the Tories you say dj

Not long to go until she is though.

Somewhat off piste but just found out that Jeremy Corbyn is in Leamington tomorrow at 2.00pm ...think I'll nip and see him in the flesh, as it were.

Any other GNetters going to be there?

This explains a party within a party

Will you be heckling Anya
Wave to the camera and we might see you on the news!

roses I've nailed my colours to the mast and put a Vote Labour poster in my window. I'm not a fan of the path Labour is following at the moment, but I cannot in all conscience vote for more of the same.

You knkw already we are on different sides of the political spectrum, but (unlike some) we've always agreed to differ and accepted that we each have an opinion.

I'm curious to see Jeremy in RL though.

I will wave though ??

Report back ( and take a selfie with him.)

Anya

I will be interested to see if his appearance is a walk about or a rally for activists.

He came to Leicester on Saturday and I thought it was going to be an open rally but it turned out to be an invited guest only do for activists / Labour supporters at Leicester Tigers Stadium.

He was in the city centre.

Here's his rally so you can see what you missed.
