Jeremy Corbyn's time is up

[belboid]

I wanted to stay out of this because frankly I have no horse in this race but this is the photo thats circulating with Corbyn next to the effigy.

So some people brought it near stage he was speaking at. How evil.

 

[killer b]

Elsewhere on the boards people are discussing gardening, football, what we're having for tea tonight. fairly sure there's room for a debate about whether this inflatable sheik is dodge or not tbh

 

[BillRiver]

more like two I'd say.

It is three now.

 

[Flavour]

Most of the people calling out the effigy have also been active in the main Gaza thread. It's not as if it's one or the other. Ffs guys.

E2a for those hard of understanding: I absolutely appreciate that Corbyn has nothing to do with any of this but Corbyn is old news and this thread, 992 pages deep, has had several way-less-relevant tangents in the past. as if that mattered.

Sure, it's not as if its an irrelevance blatantly obviously raised as a distraction or owt.

let them discuss the trivial while people here forensically analyse the major issues of the day

This is such a weird line of argument. "Isn't it terrible how Corbyn was stood near that dodgy effigy?" "Oh, was he stood near a dodgy effigy?" "I dunno, but he's stood near some other things in the past, might as well assume he must have been stood near it until proven otherwise."

I’m not making that argument, though it appears that he was near it. I’m just saying that piling on to kebabking for a bit of piss taking was oversensitive given Corbyn’s form.

Given that even now thousands of Twitter warriors feel the messiah is due a comeback and some of those will be inspired by recent events to start crossing the line once more, then the microscope is going to be on him, where he goes and the company he keeps.

Well he could clearly see what it was

oh wait ...

So accusing someone of antisemitism is ok as long as it's for a bit of a larf.

Yes, well done, that’s exactly what I suggested.

 

[two sheds]

well yes i think it was actually - what else was it?

 

[JTG]

Oh god, this is fucking pathetic

There should be one overblown tangent per page until page 1,000 and then either the thread gets locked or purged right back to page 1. A kind of "Final Destination" for messageboards.

gawd this is superfical, crass twaddle, just a bunch of reactionary cliche's you can find in any alt centrist bores twotter feed, ad infinitum ....zzzzz

+ no idea what you mean by Kebakbking's ' pisstaking' ... it was a straight up ' Corbyn was next to an AS efffigy, again' smear ?

'solidarity with bears'. One of things I've always liked about Corbyn is that he's consistently shown iron fist support for nonhuman animals in their struggle for liberation against the parasite species that is Homo Sapiens. In that Rosen book the bear chases a family of hunters and tries to rip them apart.

Corbyn's greatest Marxist-Lentilist moment was being one of three signatories (inc. J McDonnell) to with out a doubt the greatest, most iron-fist pumping Parliamentary early day motion to date:

That this House is appalled, but barely surprised, at the revelations in M15 files regarding the bizarre and inhumane proposals to use pigeons as flying bombs; recognises the important and live-saving role of carrier pigeons in two world wars and wonders at the lack of gratitude towards these gentle creatures; and believes that humans represent the most obscene, perverted, cruel, uncivilised and lethal species ever to inhabit the planet and looks forward to the day when the inevitable asteroid slams into the earth and wipes them out thus giving nature the opportunity to start again.

Wishing death upon the entire human race for the actions of a tiny fraction of its population is tedious misanthropic bullshit.

Looks like an EDM from Tony Banks (who served on the GLC with John McDonnell). He was pretty strong on animal welfare!

Based on his Wikipedia he sounds like a pretty legendary comrade!

Possibly but it's also fair enough really

 

[two sheds]

Harsh but fair

If you're an edgy teenager, maybe.

 

[killer b]

it's... a joke? can't you tell?

 

[NoXion]

It's still shit.

Got me there spud

I agree with both Tweets...
... it's just annoying that it's a state affiliated spokeman saying it.
Plus the fact the state they are affiliated with are:
a. Communist (which undermines the sentiment in the eyes of some)
b. Warmongers (Taiwan and South China sea)
c. Terrible at human rights.
d. Massive polluters (climate crisis being one of the global issues)

Which state is communist?
