    Transfer Rumour McCallum.....

    12 games 5 goals this season after coming back from a career threatening injury. Give the guy a break ! Think Godden and Biamou would cause teams all sorts of problems. Both work hard, good movement, good in the air. Goddens more of a natural finisher but Biamous record from second half of L2...

    Misread that as ‘suck Murdochs little dick’ to start with (which amused me)

    Exactly Pete but unfortunately that reflects badly on current labour leadership (when all campaign Labour focussed on Johnson being untrustworthy...with some good reasons) We’ll have to see if he delivers. I personally think he will because if he doesn’t there is no way they will get a fifth...

    It is when you consider the public sector workforce is around 5-5.5m (if anyone has their voting split I’d like to see it) Thats not me being confrontational, however, I’d imagine after a period of austerity, minimal wage increases etc they wouldn’t have been falling over themselves to vote Tory

    I still find it bizarre though Dave and reflects the shift in the Labour Party support...they are supposed to be the party of the ‘working class’ !

    BSB you’re a bright guy and I appreciate you’re not a massive Corbyn fan but your obviously caught up in the same ‘blame everyone else’ bubble This manifesto was more left wing than 2017. I’m quoting labour MPs who have complained it was a wish list, economically illiterate etc etc An...

    New Labour Leader

    I was talking about the list attached to the post Clint, as he was talking about the increase in public support. Didn’t see water on there

    He’s a sensible guy, Kinnock and got it pretty much nailed on. I still can’t believe some (quite bright) labour supporters don’t appear to accept what even a growing number of their own MPs are saying as to the reasons why labour lost and the Tories won. I think it really does reflect changing...

    New Labour Leader

    I don’t think nationalisation, in particular the railways, was ridiculed Dave. People, rightly, questioned the need to nationalise everything (rail, water, energy) and give free broadband to all...and then the suggestion it wouldn’t cost the man on the street any more. Even if you believe the...

    I’d said numerous time’s BSB that this half in half out rail situation needs resolution ie potentially even the gradual returning to public ownership (and would’ve received public support). My point was the ideological drive regarding the various matters listed (nationalisation of utilities...

    General Election 2019 thread

    I don’t disagree. This half in half out just isn’t working for the public. The fact that prices are increased at the max amount they can every year (even when service has been poor) has never sat well with me either. I think because of the above, out of all potential nationalisations this is...

    General Election 2019 thread

    As I’ve said there’s arguments for each of the policies if you ignore the negative implications ! I know the potential benefits of nationalisation ...but saying you would nationalise rail and utilities and give free broadband for all and there wouldn’t be a cost to the wider public is loony...

    Nationalisation of rail and all utilities, together with free broadband for all and saying only the super rich will pay is ‘hard left’/‘looney left’ So is taking 10% of private limited companies and giving them to employees. As was the underlying (longer term) threat to abolish all private...

    I would never try to argue that Brexit won’t have any negative impacts on the UK (at some point it has/will but hopefully businesses will adapt etc etc), however, from memory since the referendum vote the wage increases for the lower paid//‘working class’ have increased significantly (as a...

    Yep, those thick working class northerners will get what’s coming to them ! (Can’t find a rolleyes emoji) That PVA, has been the attitude of labour hierarchy and southern, more liberal, base, which is exactly why those traditional labour supporters have voted against the party they love/loved...

    Exactly NW. If he fucks over the public and NHS he’ll quite rightly be voted out next time

    I hope we see a bit more of the real Johnson now so people can make a proper decision on him, good or bad. He was obviously kept well out of the way as he had a major fuck up in him ! Personally I don’t think he’s the evil right winger he’s been made out to be by some (lily and...

    The Lib Dem’s missed a massive opportunity in this election ! Mentioned earlier in response to NW that Johnson isn’t hard right and ERG will be under better control with a majority. Reshuffle will be interesting. With hindsight Johnsons previous cabinet picks were the correct people for the...
