Urban v's the Commentariat

[rekil]

Low quality beef with Hodges who's too stupid to land a knockout nazi hacker hero mention blow. Bit saucy from LP considering the attempt to insult people here with the "I work for living" comment.

C4 News had our Laurie on tonight. She was put up against Stephen Bush (NS) to cheerlead for JC. I assume that our Owen was otherwise engaged.

No real 'beer on keyboard' moments that I can remember.....she seemed a little nervous.

Laurie Penny on Corbyn. The campaign's Stalingrad.

 

[J Ed]

Corbyn's campaign might be able to get past this unfortunate intervention from Penny but it's bound to leave a taint.

Odd gig for La Penny; isn't JC white, middle aged, middle-class & straight?

When the interviewer repeated his bit about Chucks being a different "face" I thought he was going for some race angle but Laurie was wise to him.

ETA Also learned it's Law-ree and not Lorry like I thought.

It'll be Blue Laurie before too long.

You appear to have over-looked this...

The only way my friends and I could find to buck the trend was to improvise a whole new way of living, where we pool resources and share our labour, from carpentry to cake-baking. Imagine our surprise when we found created a post-capitalist anarcho-syndicalist utopia entirely by accident.

She's got middle-class bohemia mixed up with anarcho-syndicalism. Fine apart from that.

I note the cake baking and am conviced that she belives that her route to the Tory cabinet is Via "Celebrity Bake Off".

I take it the clock ran out on Little Richard's attempt to finish his PhD?

Or may we yet have the chance to remind him that he's not a real doctor?

I seriously thought you meant the real one. Now that would be an interesting read.

That's PhD training for you.

He doesn't sound like an ally of the sick and disabled either, come to think of it.

It's a peculiar kind of intelligence that makes you go "you know what, even Frankie Boyle wouldn't say something like that".

That's saying something.

And 'Doctor.' Seymour? I'd probably get a less unpleasant bedside manner from this 'Doctor' and he didn't have decent medical qualifications, either:

Harris has form for this as well.
Is it just because they are dicks, or are teachers see differently in America? Note I am not suggesting they are not dicks just wondering if this is part of something wider.
