Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

(at them not you)

I suspect Bastani's pitch went straight in the bin.

 

[skyscraper101]

Yes the dub was strange. How about the content - choice of what items to concentrate on, and the comparative figures they give?

Well, if they weren’t delivered in a sub Harry Enfield style sketch they may have registered more tbh.

That's the trouble with young people today: style over substance

the city of london police do not date back to roman times. schoolboy error. otherwise they'd be the auldest police in europe, and not the parisian force which would be a mere stripling having only been founded in the seventeenth century. when you get the obvious things wrong the other things can be less relied upon. his corporate governance of the city of london, for example, doesn't quite agree with the city of london's own website:The City's government - City of London. the 86% of the land bit outside the british isles includes a vast chunk of almost entirely unpopulated antarctica, which at 1,709,000 sq km is 98% of the overseas territories he's on about. and no one - NO ONE - launders money through antarctica.

he is almost right

The watch of the City of London goes back to Roman times..it provides guards for the Guildhall and city magistrates courts

is class collaborationist social democracy revival with more cops and borders the best we can do as we approach climate apocalypse and the worst humanitarian crisis in history?

No more drugs for you..

What did they do in the decades when London was abandoned?

Good question.
Ill ask my brother. He was employed by the in the 90's when he was at doing music at Guildhall.

Perhaps he might have a look at the city of london police website which notes the colp were founded in 1839. While policing has been variously organised throughout London's populated history it's er bollocks to say there's a genealogy going seamlessly back to Roman times.

Im sure you are correct. Im no expert

I'd argue that is wildly optimistic.

 

[lucillemara]

you are right but I don't see how strengthening militant state power in the name of social democracy can be anything but a disaster in this climate

 

[lucillemara]

kinder gentler police state

No, what we need now is rhetorical questions and lots of them.

The seventies weren't that bad.

Rhetorical questions!
When do we want them?

oh dear

Drug supply councillor 'must resign'

 

[teqniq]

I'll see your drug supply councillor and raise you

Councillor suspended over Liverpool slur

He said abortion clinics in Liverpool were a form of "crime prevention", and joked that he had "bought two of the staff" from the city's slavery museum.

 

[hash tag]

I'll raise you with an MP! Osamor referred to standards watchdog
I seem to remember a fuss a while back about family members being employed by MP's in order to get tax free expenses.

 

[Rob Ray]

The idea that any MP would act shocked about someone's relative taking cocaine to a festival is a bit mind-boggling tbh, given the river of it flowing through Westminster.

Cocaine in the Commons: Parliament embarrassed by drug revelation

 

[Poi E]

Well, it's more the laundromats in the City of London that are the bother.

"A Conservative Party spokesman said Mr Frost "was being investigated centrally".

Corbyn has not been clear on Europe. He did vote leave a long time ago and appears to a certain extent to be sitting on the fence. From what I recall, many labour mp's are not very clear either with one or two be non committal, saying they want a vote on the deal. In quotes: Corbyn on the EU referendum

 

[two sheds]

I saw him saying he was against being in Europe because it would prevent renationalization of services.

Not sure that's true, though. I'd thought national governments often just ignored bits of European law they didn't like.

 

[danny la rouge]

He did vote leave a long time ago

He only had the opportunity at the same time as everyone else. Unless he had registered for a postal vote.

Corbyn proves himself to be the most progressive by becoming the first male politician whose policies get ignored while everyone obsesses over how he is dressed!

not me but some other board

 

[agricola]

Is it true that he went to the Rememberance service dressed as Zhukov during the Victory Parade of 1945, and his white horse ate all the wreathes?

As far as the media is concerned though it now appears the anorak is on another Foot.
