Should I vote Labour

I saw with interest that Corbyn is being challenged in Islington by one of his own Party (Foster?). Foster made the point that ab has been making for months that Corbyn does not want to win this Election and hopes it sees off those who are a thorn in his side, eg those in the marginals who are on the more sensible side of the Party. This will leave him with a small band of Stalinites. I am beginning to wonder if Jezza is completely sane.
And as for the young vote. Don't insult them; they know a plonker when they see one.

I think you'll find I've said a bit more than that, Annie.
You are trying to do a Corbyn on me, just mentioning the bits that fit your idea of me, like you do with him all the time.
That's why I told you to change the record and you know it.

Jen, you think telling a poster to piss off, another to shut up, another to change the record is debating? It isn't .

And what are you doing, Ana?

You're not debating and discussing durhamjen. You're just telling everyone not to vote Tory.

One problem I have is the labour shadow cabinet, like their leader they have no experience, many been in the house two years , Yvette Cooper 20 years, Hilary Benn 18 years for example, when one watches these two in the select committee sittings the lack of experience in the shadow cabinet is so obvious. Excluding Diane Abbott , if only we could, where is she by the by, surely not silenced !

Those of you who want to wait for the manifestos could just go and wait for the manifestos, and leave the rest of us to debate and discuss.

roses, a great many of us may die before a Labour government gets in again...

I'll await the manifesto

Ana I can see the post mortem now! It will be a replay of the last GE and the referendum.It will go on ad nauseam until either a Labour Government gets in at the following GE or we die, whichever comes first.

Good to see you keeping up with the press, roses and Ana.

Perhaps they won't bother with exit polls this time?

But, roses, the post mortem will be just as bad as the last one..

I seem to remembr some time back that you were hoping to move, daphnedill. Perhaps it would be somewhere less expensive and you'd be able to see the wood for the trees.

Exactly bags and what with Brexit, this GE is like no other.

No, more like Tower Hamlets, Barking, Walthamstow.

I think one of the main issues that many lifelong Labour voters have now is that they cannot imagine a Labour Party in its current state, where most Labour MPs have very little confidence in thr Party leader, as being able to form an effective government.

This problem is so huge that, even with a decent manifesto, people don't see the point of voting Labour in this general election, because it could never be implemented.

Meanwhile, for all her faults, Theresa May does seem to have inspired in voters, even ones who wouldn't normally vote Conservative, a confidence that she will get things done that they want done.

Well, I don't think they are buying in Knightsbridge or Kensington or even Islington.

London is a spread of boroughs sprawling a long way out from the centre.
I used to live and work there. I think some people who don't know the area imagine it is all out of reach house price wise.It isn't.

If someone posts something that seems to be completely implausible, why not challenge it?
Precisely JessM.
That is why I mildly pointed out that Elo's statement was not an absolute fact.

Well, explain how.



I didn't actually quiz them on their financial affairs as it's none of my business.
But if I find out I will certainly post it on Gransnet for all the world to see if you need some tips daphnedill.

And it wasn't debate. I never claimed I was debating with that post. I was appreciating an opinion because it chimed with mine. I think we're allowed to express opinions, even ones other might find unpleasant, on GN, aren't we?

A young couple we know ( teachers) have just bought a house in Tower Hamlets.
It is doable, as some boroughs are more affordable than others.
