No they're not, before the last GE they were at each others throats big time, When the expected wipeout failed to occur a lot of those to the right and centre of the party were even more shocked than Rupert Murdoch.
Since like all politicians their number one priority is their own survival, they rallied behind a leader who had turned out to be nowhere near as unpopular as they expected.
They are much better at putting on a show of unity that the Tories but there are loads of conflicts, disagreements and rivalries just waiting for the chance to come to the fore again.

tbh, the only real source of conflict is the hardcore Blairite rump in the PLP, and in some - but not that many - councils. And they are engaged in an epic display of dummy spitting and backstabbing simply because they have lost every argument, every vote, every contest of significance, in both the party and the country, for the past 5 years. All the evidence is that Blairism is dead, finished - and they can't handle that. BUT they have near Zero support amongst the membership, Corbyn has almost completely taken over the hierarchy, and OMOV reselection will probably be the coup de grace.
They are, finally - when set in the context of a party of 550,000 members (and rising), a tiny, marginalised minority, and they are too well aware of the history of the SDP to go for SDP 2.0

That's the point - it's yet another Tory con.
Phased in over 5 years, and paid for by raiding other budgets earmarked for social spending.
There is absolutely no new spending commitment here whatsoever. Not a penny

They’ve done the same in Ireland only today there’s a national housing protest. Housing is the issue that could bring down FG and maybe the tories too.

Housing activists hosting national day of action today ... here's how we got to this point
 
According to the Tory on Sunday Politics Labour is a socialist revolution in the making. Have they thought that message through? Sounds great. :thumbs:
 
Other bit on Sunday Politics was a letter in the Telegraph from a load of Constituency Chairman summoning May to National Conservative Convention.
 
In his Standard interview, (Brandon) Lewis... revealed that, at the conference starting this weekend, the party will unveil an interactive conference app which will allow people to provide feedback during cabinet minister’s speeches.

From the people that brought you the Matt Hancock app, the Tory social media game is fire as usual. What could possibly go wrong?



(Yes I know Coburn is UKIP)
 
Users, once logged into the app, were able to both amend and make the personal details of prominent MPs public. Twitter users claimed Johnson’s picture had been briefly changed to one featuring a pornographic image.

Gove’s picture was changed to Rupert Murdoch, his previous employer at the Times.

Anyone could log in as any attendee by providing an email with no password. Many MPs had registered with their public parliamentary email addresses, making it simple for any member of the public to access their mobile number.

What a bunch of cretins :facepalm:
 
Why the fuck is one of them staring at the wall from a few inches away? Is it some kind of Zen thing where he will shoot at reflections?
