The Labour Party

lemon!

Yes come back Screaming Lord Sutch. It’s good to challenge the established parties sometimes.
Nobody votes SDP either. They do not exist any more. A bit like MRLP.
The OMRLP still exists in fact.
In times gone by some councillors were elected and one or two of them became mayors of their towns.

Who said politics is boring?

Screaming Lord Sutch would find it difficult, though.

Corbyn is a 'Johnnie come lately' I am speaking of the difference in campaigning by previous party leaders and this one.

I wonder what this thread would look like if we just replied with "ad hominem" after ever personal, unsubstantiated remark, either again Corbyn and the Labour Party directly or against members who try to balance the comments?

And without posters who take on the mantle of spoon twirler ?

Ad hominem

I can't speak Latin but my Welsh is excellent ?

Maybe they have no comments about the artuments themselves, so have to attack the person.

Artuments? That's a good word.
Arguments.

You were saying he was too old before; now you are calling him a Johnny come lately.
Perhaps the way he campaigns is the more honest way. He has been campaigning and winning the artgument since 1983.

Dj, do you hate T May?

No Dj, he has been campaigning for himself since 1983

No, he's campaigned for the Labour party as an honest labour politician.

"Corbyn is a good man, honest and caring. Sadly lacking in so many politicians."
Who said that?

By supporting deselection ? This isn't honest

Ad hominem.

You said it, Annie, before an election.

A caring man would respect the grief of colleagues

So why did you say he was honest and caring?
I can't believe you did not know about who he invited to the commons until 2017.

Gerry Adams didn't need inviting. He's been an MP for as long as Corbyn.

A caring man would respect the grief of colleagues

Ad hominem

Is there any chance of discussing policy?

A bit late for that, GracesGran.
Corbyn had a lot to do with the Labour Manifesto at the last election. That's why the party won so many more seats.
Not quite enough, unfortunately.
Martin McGuinness was an MP for 20 years, and deputy to May's best buddy in Northern Ireland.
A very honest stitch up there, I don't think.

Here's a thought.
Should democratically elected MPs ever be banned from going to parliament?

There are rules aren't there? If you go to prison for more than 12 months (that may not be accurate) or something similar. Otherwise I certainly don't think you can start banning them just because you don't like their views, but they are not illegal - that's the death of democracy really.
