Corbyn & Cabinet in the Media

This is a real article, in a real newspaper, by a real columnist.

Nick Cohen, him of the Euston Manifesto. An ugly face and an even uglier mind.

The "ugly mind" is all that is relevant here though.

Stereotypes aren’t always pernicious. Leftwingers have benefitted (sic) for years from being typecast as decent people. They may possesses the self-righteousness of “a teenager who had just become a vegetarian”, as Jess Phillips, the marvellous Labour MP for Birmingham Yardley, warned. (how's that even a full sentence?)

Those opening sentences alone are one of the cuntiest things I've ever read. Nick Cohen is an oxygen thieving shitcunt.

Anyone remember this interview with him in Black Flag from 1999 ? Esp interesting to recall his comments about a clique taking over labour at that point. And describing himself as 'extreme' left of course. Which would, using his own logic (i didn't change, everyone else on the labour-party oriented left moved right etc), would lead to him describing himself as extreme right today.

Blimey! Has the Telegraph taken leave of its senses?

It is on this basis that there is a solid case to argue that we are currently getting Jeremy Corbyn completely wrong. After the Oldham West by-election, at which the traditional and ludicrous assertions about the political coming of Ukip were rehearsed, there must be a chance that we are mistaken, and that many of Labour’s own MPs are on the verge of a terrible mistake: what if Corbyn is on to something, and the worst obstacles to Labour’s electoral success are the “saboteur” moderates within his party?
Labour's obsessive rebel MPs should give Jeremy Corbyn the chance to lead

tbf For 'balance' they also have Mr McTernan doing his weekly column, which increasingly reads like a bloke who boarded a coach thinking it would take him to a nice holiday relaxing in the Tuscan sun, but instead finds himself headed to Magaluf with a bunch of 18-30's. I'm not sure what he is expecting from Telegraph readers, but worthy of popcorn and a deckchair.

Corbyn disassociates himself from bullying politics including deselection.
Stop the War calls for Labour MPs who vote for bombing to be deselected.
Corbyn does Stop the War fundraiser.

Hypocrisy is fine if you agree with someone, it seems.

How is deselection (or the threat of it) 'bullying politics' exactly?

Ask Corbyn. He said it was.

 

[ska invita]

Ask Corbyn. He said it was.

only because he was bullied into it

Ask Corbyn. He said it was.

Where did he say this?

Interesting: How Stop the War learned to stop worrying and love Labour

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Or not.

 

[J Ed]

Interesting

Not really

Ask Corbyn. He said it was.

And what do you think?

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Ask Corbyn. He said it was.

He said it was bullying did he? And he used that word rather than actually saying something else?

 

[MarkyMarrk]

Even the Green's leader has quit STWC. Corbyn carries on digging his hole.

Do you, MarkyMarrk, have something to say? If so, say it you feckless wretch.

Is he a relation of Marky Mark and Magnus Magnuson? (I'm actually not sure who either of those are and am presently regretting making this post). Oh well.

Is there anything worth reading in Ali's article apart from self aggrandising waffle?

Labour MPs must speak up for democracy against hard Left trolls

'Bullying like domestic abuse'

Well that 'moderate' ideology has seen a dramatic reduction in the provision of services to DV survivors so maybe she does reckon that DV is basically the same thing as being lobbied.

 

[DotCommunist]

its becoming transparent that claiming bullying from trots is a deliberate tactic thats been discussed and shared as a way of attempting to discredit anyone other than the moderate maquis tm
