Simply The Best.

Unless there is going to be a mass public hanging in 2015 then I beg to differ.

 

[Fozzie Bear]

Replace them with baying well-off Labour MPs who can continue Tory spending plans.

What's that William Burroughs quote? Something like "nobody does more harm than people who feel bad about doing it"

 

[DaveCinzano]

Owen Jones' accelerationism.

He's the Large Hadron Collider of the left

 

[tim]

Here's one. It's every day now rather than every other day. He's much much nicer if you're a face, regardless of how shit your politics are.

Thanks to Tory steadfastness, after HS2 he'll be able to whizz up and down the country in half a day.

 

[rekil]

The next few months will be busy so he should make like Montgomery and Deadmau5 and look into hiring stunt double #activist Owens.

 

[el-ahrairah]

they love a bit of blocking, don't they. owen blocked me on fb months ago, now left unity have done it. no sense of the dialectic, these wankers.

#payback2015 triple cashback on donations to the Labour Party*

*exceptions apply to trade union members

 

[Greebo]

Owen Jones' accelerationism.

Next he will be going up and down the country twice a day.

Then #Omnipresence2015

Gosh - you mean like we mere mortals already do via the *gulp* internet?

 

[The Pale King]

When I hear the words 'up and down the country' I reach for my revolver

 

[Celyn]

Owen spends his LIFE doing politics. What do YOU do?

This Stephen McCabe cannot spell "practise". Either that or he is an American impostor.

OJ was pretty much saying 'I'm a better politician because I do politics all over the country, not just in a small part of West Scotland'. That makes him pretty arrogant.

Whilst I have no wish to defend labour, Steve McCabe's constituency isn't in a particuarly wealthy (apart from the Kilmacolm area) part of the world. There's high unemployment for starters, and it is the worst area in Scotland for drug abuse issues in the 15-24 age group. Only Glasgow has more addicts in the 35-64 age group. When was the last time OJ visited the area to do some activism?

You wouldn't be suggesting it's not trendy enough for him, would you?

 

[chilango]

"Traipsing up and down the country" is a pretty shit way of doing politics anyway.

 

[rekil]

Joan Burton of our very own pretend labour party deploying OJ's "up and down the country" zinger yesterday (at 0:34 mark) in response to some SF grandstanding.

Spoiler

 

[DaveCinzano]

"Traipsing up and down the country" is a pretty shit way of doing politics anyway.

But a great way to do a bit of the old serial killing - has anyone checked OJ's travel itinerary recently?

Inefficient, expensive, not to mention worse for the environment than doing what you can in one place and using the net etc to reach places further away.

 

[DaveCinzano]

BTW I have no evidence to suggest that Thee Jones is a brutal and unempathetic slaughterer of strangers, using his self-defined role as the perambulatory überactivist de nos jours as cover for his charnel deeds, but, you know, cold dead eyes etc.

 

[el-ahrairah]

if he's killing tories he's got my unqualified support

 

[Fozzie Bear]

"By day he was the angel-faced superstar of the Labour Left, travelling up and down the country to bring hope to the hopeless..."

Angel-faced, you say? Now, there are angels, and there are angels...

Evokes wistful memories of this fine old zine (named for a spittle-flecked exhortation aimed at hunt sabs by a pink-coated psycho, I believe):

There isn't an ill-fitting glove and a Ford Bronco involved, is there?

Stephen McCabe is an MP in Birmingham. Unless there's two of them.

It's this one.

Not the brummie one then!

There's two of them. I did check.
