    Rebecca Long-Bailey sacked

    Depends on your point of view. I’m not sure 0.07% of your members classes as institutional.

    Rebecca Long-Bailey sacked

    I do agree with this, and for this reason she should have been more careful with her sharing of the article. The EHRC report is due imminently too - I think it’s a symbolic move as much as anything.

    State of those beaches - why do people have to be so scummy with their litter. They should just close them for a period of time and fine every twat that ignores it.

    Rebecca Long-Bailey sacked

    Other rumours that he wanted rid of her because she was more supportive of Teaching Unions over their resistance to school re-opening.. which is not the Labour message. Again rumours though and if it were true made easy by this error of judgement.

    It’s from an Amnesty piece as well....

    Rebecca Long-Bailey sacked

    Right decision really.... She clearly didn’t do it intentionally but naive and should have checked the article properly.

    Finished it last night - ending surprised me a little but certainly worth watching.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    This is why open selection should at least be mandatory at every election cycle. Let the constituents decide if you are serving them adequately. Is it perfect? Perhaps not but it would keep more of them on their toes.

    George Floyd

    No it’s not about whataboutery - you said extreme left people have media slots - it’s simply not true. 2 of the most outspokenly racist and right wing ‘personalities’ in the UK over the last 5 years have had their own radio shows to promote their agenda. The fact that some ‘leftie’ commentators...

    George Floyd

    I’m sorry Nick but this is nonsense - the extreme left have media slots? Wasn’t it Farage and Hopkins that have had the prime time radio slots? Did I miss the communism show on BBC?

    General TV Thread

    I’m watching the Bodyguard at present. I think a thread of appreciation just for Keeley Hawes is justified.

    I’m just saying there can be a balance between the two

    George Floyd

    Yes - but my awareness can be raised without sharing of my opinion.

    George Floyd

    You’ve highlighted my point there - I’m not aware of what you’ve just said, rather than pretend I do I think I’d contribute more by not contributing.

    George Floyd

    Why do people necessarily HAVE to have an opinion on it and then voice it? For example the whole situation about gender and all the different types. I don’t totally understand it (and not because I am being intentionally ignorant) but people should just be allowed to be what they want to be. I...

    George Floyd

    It’s been more obviously divided since exactly 4 years ago today..

    Pubs

    The suggestion was that inside it was table service only.... guess from a pubs point of view to make that profitable you’d need to buy food too. I would assume if you can find one with a decent garden you can just rock up for a drink.
