Here you are.

All Corbyn critics etc can now have a thread all to yourselves.

GillT57 Tue 28-May-19 14:14:31

I think it is disgraceful that Campbell has been thrown out, they will regret it because he is an erudite, articulate man and can fight his own corner well. I have always liked him, especially for his brave stance on the crippling effects of his depression. I wonder if the Tory party have sacked all those local councillors who were lining up to say they were going to vote for the Brexit party?

The right wing on GN never criticise the Tories and never have a policy idea to discuss as an alternative as well you know mycat

maryeliza54 Tue 28-May-19 14:09:35

Apart from one person, who is supporting JC on this thread - you can deflect all you like mycat but the last 9 years have been a disaster and for 5 of those it wasn’t JC as leader was it?

Trouble us Corbyn incompetence covers many threads.

As do the iniquities of the Tories.

Awful awful awful all of them

maryeliza54 Tue 28-May-19 14:07:26

Gutter language . Here catch <throws pearls and smelling salts>

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 14:06:10

And many posters abhore what the Tories have done while Corbyn sits back and allows it!

The labour back benches for a start but they couldn’t shift him because momentum idiots arnt interested and happily throw traditional labour votes under the bus.

He’s utterly hopeless. You know it and we all know it

Whitewavemark2 Tue 28-May-19 14:03:32

What posts? I didn’t start this thread because of you, I started it because the other thread wasn’t being given a chance to run smoothly by people wanting to chunter on about the Labour Party and JC.

There was so much of it I thought that I would try starting another thread, that’s all!

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 14:01:55

trichet

Will you let us all know when Corbyn is making a start on this please?

Anniebach Tue 28-May-19 13:57:33

Read the posts Whitewave read the posts

Whitewavemark2 Tue 28-May-19 13:46:23

annie that’s being a tad paranoid. It wasn’t about you at all.
Why on earth do you think that is why I started it?

Anniebach Tue 28-May-19 13:45:49

Corbyn is not responsible for the devastation caused by the Tory party

Doesn’t change the fact that a good opposition leader could
have attacked them daily and a good opposition leader would not have gained squatters rights on a fence

OK here goes The Labour Party now stands as the only way of stopping Brexit, the only hope for some sort of social equality to begin to repair the absolute disgrace our society has now become and the only hope for the welfare state to survive. And the only response on this thread is "We don't like Corbyn" well FFS try thinking a bit. He's 70 he won't lead after 2022 but you all persist in condemning this country to a bloody awful administration because of him!!!!
As for AC they shouldn't have done it but let's face facts he was foul to people when he was in power and they were bound to do something when the opportunity presented itself.

I guess you never thought labour would have an even worse day than they did on Sunday when you started this thread.

But jezza is literally the gift that keeps on giving isn’t he

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:30:00

And kicking Campbell out on the basis that he supports another ref while they seem edging towards supporting another ref is such an own goal it’s almost unbelievable

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:28:23

Many on here MaryEliza many on here

Anniebach Tue 28-May-19 13:24:41

Gutter language yet again

maryeliza54 Tue 28-May-19 13:23:41

mycatwho the actual f**k thinks he’s a great leader?

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:23:35

Jezza not actually having a good day is he?

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:14:56

And if it’s a correlation on gransnet it’s utterly ridiculous and should be called out as such

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:14:04

MaryEliza

Ditto the moment anyone criticised Corbyn they are right wing!

jura2 Tue 28-May-19 13:13:29

So I am not, and never will be, in any way, shape or form 'right wing' and not even 'right of centre', for sure.

Mycatisahacker Tue 28-May-19 13:12:58

So today!

Labour expel the man who helped labour become electable!

Labour is being investigated for anti semitism hatred

Labour was decimated in the Euro elections despite the Tories being the most unpopular in decades.

Please explain to me why you think he’s a great leader???

jura2 Tue 28-May-19 13:11:59

A pity to have 2 threads on same subject. So will just copy and paste 'I belong to several pro remain sites, 1 representing expats in France - and their reaction to Alistair Campbell being expelled- is that it is time for all labour remainers to expel themselves (many, including myself- did that 2 years ago)...

There are many on this thread and others who Corbyn 'haters' and probably LP too. Personally, this is NOT my case - I was a LP member myself, voted Labour, and have never been anti Corbyn, and did admire him in many ways. I feel totally disinfranchised and massively disappointed now. I have joined BOTH Lib Dems and Greens.'

Anniebach Tue 28-May-19 13:11:36

I assume Whitewave is happy ,

lemongrove Tue 28-May-19 13:07:47

MaryE that’s a lot of hahas, you will be saying ‘ya, boo, sucks’ next I expect.
Perhaps use full names, if you want everyone to be clear who you are talking about.
Have you criticised him btw ......you are on the right thread if you would like to.
