Why the lib-dems are shit

Speech was 41 minutes, apparently.

How long does it take to say "we're sorry for propping up the vermin for 5 years"?

Date set for next stage of Alistair Carmichael legal challenge - BBC News

"A date has been set for the next stage in a legal challenge to Alistair Carmichael's election as MP for Orkney and Shetland.

Four constituents raised the action under the Representation of the People Act 1983.

They claim the Lib Dem MP misled voters over a memo claiming SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon would rather have seen David Cameron become prime minister.

Judges have set aside four days from 9 November."

 
“aggressive and triumphalist.”

Disgusting, bet she doesn't say that about Remembrance Day
She actually has written a book praising/about another local WW1 memorial. That one was OK as it was made of local limestone. I'm serious.

“aggressive and triumphalist.” victory of the christ over death there. Lovely. Not at all freaky.
 
oxford&bucks light infantry memorial totally fine and dandy of course

Working class people blowing each other up on behalf of their respective betters is alright but working-class people going to Spain in solidarity to take up arms alongside the Spanish working-class in order to stop their betters from massacring them is going too far.

She can't have enjoyed that bit in Pat Barker's 'Regeneration' where the 'Tommies' used undamaged roadside crucifixes for target practice...
“ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, Bastard on the cross, FIRE!”
 

A MEMORIAL for men and women from Oxford who fought fascism in the Spanish civil war is being blocked by nimbys.

Oddly, I have failed to find an image of the proposed memorial. So I can't tell whether I would like it in my back garden.

(Memo to Morning Star: look up "NIMBY".)

ETA: contd in "Why the Morning Star has gone down the pan" with a discussion of its apparent lumping-together of all who oppose any construction, road, fracking...
 
Carmichael in court, (report is a thin on any substance).
Carmichael admitted to the court that he did not tell the inquiry set up by the Cabinet secretary, Sir Jeremy Heywood, that he authorised the leak by his aide Euan Roddin when he was sent a short questionnaire in mid-April. It was an “act of untruthfulness”, Carmichael said.
Sadly I can't see the fuck losing.

Not much more in the BBC report.

Although Tavish Scott calls it a "show trial", which suggests he thinks a guilty verdict is a foregone conclusion. Unless he just doesn't understand the concept.

"Shetland MSP Tavish Scott, the former leader of the Liberal Democrats in Scotland, told the election court it was a "political show trial"."
