Why do only knobheads use the word crank?Oh, look what’s at the top of my Twitter feed…
Yes I amThen who? Because you can only work with what you’ve got. Are you not frustrated by the low quality of left wing MPs?
Where is the platform to come through though? The trade union movement maybe but they are actually getting stuff done for the people that they represent in that medium.Then who? Because you can only work with what you’ve got. Are you not frustrated by the low quality of left wing MPs?
There's just been a selection in one of the London boroughs swung by eight online votes just happened to be the son of that civil servant what's her name?Where is the platform to come through though?

Why bother moving to politics where they will have less impact and be undermined by so-called left leaning colleagues.
Also manu left wing MP’s do a lot locally for their constituents, but often this is not seen at a bigger level.

Case in point the peak salary in my own physical science being £50-55kWe need both. Productivity is in the toilet because all our infrastructure is shite whether it’s human or not.
I honestly think a lot of it is down to the weird class system in this country that values law and finance and PPE and not Maths and Physics and Engineering.
Yeah but what's the head circumference?Oh good. Another international comparison to worry about that I hadn’t even thought of

Never will be because it'll always be the'next lot' who get the benefits and therefore credit.As I’ve suggested, the government can directly influence wages in say social care which would require increased Council funding. It could also focus on certain key sectors to better subsidise/incentivise further education which would require central government investment. There’s no ‘plan’ though. Just short term reactive policy

It's also worth noting Corbyn has always been a very hard working local MP. There are a few about - Jim Pawsey was in Rugby too.
You need a bigger picture if you're going to be leader, though.
Now as it happens, my in-laws are his constituents(!) Alas, I fear they probably voted for him too...They’re basically two different jobs. And should probably actually be such. There’s no way the PMs constituents get a fair deal.
On the contrary I think having such a big wet lettuce around must have some health benefits.Now as it happens, my in-laws are his constituents(!) Alas, I fear they probably voted for him too...
While I sort of see the general point, I wonder how much influence being PM has on avoiding controversial decisions being railroaded through your constituency etc? It's the speaker's constituency that *really* misses out!

Where does the growth come from? Relaxing planning law? What else?Trickle down and growth are not the same thing. We desperately need growth because of our anaemic wages. That’s trickle up.

Do we really think a lot of technological progress happens without capitalism though ?! Hmmm, doubt it
I do. Scientific progress has happened under all kinds of economic systems, even communism. Unless we think the wheel was VC backed.
