Labour Live 2018 concert

This event was before the World Cup started, or at least before England played - and they could have included big screens to pull in the punters.

The fact is both major party's in this country are in a state of complete collapse, divided, incompetent leaders and trying to paper it over and pushing policies that are unrealistic, unfunded and could only be thought up by parties floundering around in the dark.

A plague on both of them.

I understand that Corbyn is a jaw jaw man not a war war man. So he believes in talking to all parties in a conflict. It does not have to mean he condones the views/actions of either side but is prepared to try to work towards compromise and resolution. That is hard to do, peacefully, if you only talk to half of those involved.

But he doesn’t talk to all parties in conflict does he ?

A fair old treck from Somerset for you . Did you sign up to be a Labour member having experienced the day?

No need to answer the question but I admit to being nosey.

Heathrow causing problems for Corbyn. McDonald is ‘no way will it be built’ UNITE is ‘oh yes it will , it means jobs’

Free vote .

Apologies for interrupting the topic, but is anyone else having problems with Gransnet mobile site. I can see the topics etc, with some work a rounds but there is no way to reply or start a new/topic.

I am in the office at the moment and site seems OK on Windows but obviously I cannot post on that system, so using gransnet on desktop site using my smartphone but that is somewhat difficult to say the least.

Have reported matter to GNHQ but no reply to problem at present, just an acknowledgement of message sent? However, problem been ongoing since last night.

There are a couple of threads on the problem GD1943

Many thanks POGS and Kittylestet for the above replies. However, it may well be that something much larger may be going on here, as the secretaries in the office are saying they are finding sites all over the internet that they use are down.

Please accept my apologies for interrupting your thread anniebach, will join thread again later on my tablet, hopefully

No apology needed, I hope you read niggly’s reply to your question re Lord Lucan

Jeremy Corbyn's name was chanted again this weekend by many of those taking part in the huge "Peoples Vote" march in London - but not in a good way. Yet again he has bottled out and was conveniently absent. He is a huge disappointment to so many of his supporters who see him as Theresa May's brexit poodle.

He wants out, he avoided campaigning for the referendum , refused to join tv debates He has always wanted out , just now he is leader to fearful to say so.

Goodness annie, it's quite amazing how correct you've been in your assessment of J. Corbyn almost from day 1. Even when his motives and allegiances weren't quite so obvious, you saw right through him and his colleagues! I think perhaps we need you for PM! Mind you anyone taking that job would have to be, as my grandson would say, 'A little Crazy'! No offence of course!!?

niggly, he is a devious man. I fear him being PM

annie, I agree, there is just something - unpleasant about him, something I've never felt about a potential PM (God forbid!) whichever party they belonged too. It's difficult to describe. A wolf in sheep's clothing?! something sinister?! Let's hope in time he/they will be pushed out and the Labour Party can return to normality, and be fit for government. (and sing the National Anthem!!)

niggly, anyone who can cock a snoop at colleagues who are in shock and mourning lacks common decency

This great leader Corbyn has wormed his way out of making a decision. John McDonald is against the third runway at Heathrow, UNITE is for it.

Corbyn has said Labour is against but has given Labour MP’s a free vote.

Such a strong leader . Not.

Yes, and Theresa May is for the expansion and her Foreign Secretary is not. Such a strong leader and government.

Also 50 Conservative MPs are prepared to vote against Theresa Mays no deal better than any deal Brexit. Such a strong leader.

Anyway in the office today but look forward to taking up this thread again later.

Very weak argument, May is the leader , Johnson is not.

Corbyn is the leader, McDonald is not. No difference .

May is Prime Minister, Corbyn is not.

The Conservatives are the government, Labour is not.

Strong argument.

Corbyn wants to be PM but can’t even lead his own party.

May, ‘ i believe we need the third runway

Corbyn, ‘ I sort of believe we need the third runway but I sort of believe we don’t. Comrade McDonald doesn’t want it but Comrade McClusky does . Best I stay out of this one.

Perhaps with this heatwave he has a far more important task, his allotment needs watering
