a shortage of stoliSo who knows what we'd get out of war with Russia?

shortage of bullet proof jackets also iirc. I remember a story of someone who died cos he was shot without one and how people were buying their own.
Isn't that standard form in the US? All the jarheads go on Amazon to buy their armour, with the odd jumble sale to help out. Not a mistake I reckon, just some sod deciding the value of a human life from an office somewhere.
Ooh, it's turned into a war thread. Can we have in-depth discussion on tanks next lads?
it was an ant n dec thread five minute ago.Ooh, it's turned into a war thread. Can we have in-depth discussion on tanks next lads?
millions of voices suddenly cried out in terrorMany things this thread has been. The ant and dec sexing, a great disruption in the force that was.
Found it quite informative.I don't think everyone does know or expect all that stuff though.
I agree Mason is OTT on the whole True Labour thing, but looked at from the outside the behaviour of the PLP majority shows an extraordinary level of message discipline. That 100+ attention hungry gobshites could pretty much keep a lid on it for even a day would have been unthinkable a month ago. It's no wonder conspiracy theories abound.Anyone whose been following all this stuff has been saying for ages once corbyn wins there be another struggle - one based possibly on parliamentary cold shouldering by the PLP to further drive a wedge then followed up with legal action on the basis that the PLP is now the effective labour party etc - we've literally been talking about that for months on here haven't we. I certainly know it's been part of the wider expectation by the people i know who've got a dog in this fight anyway.
That just gave me a flashback to one of the trolls on Harry's Place.I think of them as Anton DEC. Sod HP.
No bother, but they have all been rubbish since the ChieftanOoh, it's turned into a war thread. Can we have in-depth discussion on tanks next lads?

You do know that Tony Cliff (no E) was a pseudonym? Once again I find myself thinking that for someone so obsessed with the SWP you don't seem to know a great deal about them.Bagheot is the column currently written by Jeremy Cliffe(any relation to Tony?) in The Economist, a former staffer to Chukka.
What he knows about could be written in large letters on a couple of sheets of small paper.You do know that Tony Cliff (no E) was apseudonym? Once again I find myself thinking that field someone so obsessed with the SWP you don't seem to know a great deal about them.

Being kind to Mason there are still people who're being charitable enough to not see how determined those set on a divide are. Even more who aren't prepared for an ongoing struggle. Those people do need reminding and prepping for what comes next and he's doing it. Not for you certainly, not for me or for most Urbanites but for the people new to politics who still think there are fair rules and morals to it. I've seen and heard a lot of enthusiasm for Mason as an honest voice and that's all to the good, he's serving a purpose that the likes of Owen Jones have run away from.
Ridiculous eh? It's doing the rounds though. Lot of wrong 'uns out there, youth of today etc etcHmmm.
it got a fair amount of exposure in the EU referendum campaigning, so I don't think it's as obscure as you're thinking.One thing though, the biggest cheer was for abolishing TTIP, which most people in the country probably have never heard of.
Nice dig at 'the ignorant proles'Hero worship for Jeremy Corbyn as thousands turn up at Sheffield rally
Huge Corbyn rally in Sheff tonight, very mixed crowd, up to 3000 there. very confident speech from Corbyn and a moving barnstorming one from ex Miner John Dunn.
