Change UK: Chuka Umunna resigns from Labour party and launches Independent Group

[Teaboy]

But not quite long-winded enough to mention that, as a matter of principle, they'll resign their seats gained as Labour candidates and seek re-election.

Should be mandatory really. Those tories that joined the kippers did just that.

Do we think that FROTLPOC will have a single leader or a (crap)Green-stylee mish-mash of joint leaders? And what gender of leader???

 

[tommers]

"Go Forward"

 

[redcogs]

i have spent the last hour shoring up the foundations of redcogs villa in preparation for the earth shattering squeek. Better put the kettle on whilst the oven still in situ

And what gender of leader???

[brogdale]

"Go Forward"

"Forward without the people"?

 

[brogdale]

not sure eunuch is a gender

Be careful with that. They wouldn't win, but they'd eat into the Labour vote. Plus, in a remain seat it all become a bit difficult for Labour as they've only got the fraying Starmer plan.

They'd do exactly what they're for, then?

Presumably, as they're in Cunty Hall, today's photo op will use the HoC as a backdrop?

Well, if they can’t be punctual they won’t get my vote. It’s 10:05 now. Slackers.

What would Labour do without Gavin Shuker?

 

[two sheds]

I can’t wait, people we will never hear of again having a moment in the sunshine. First item on sky news at 10 o’ clock on a Monday morning.

Nope, I'm sure they'll be popping up in the Guardian and Independent front pages at least as the people of reference for what's wrong with Corbyn.

That titan of Labour, nay British, politics.
