Politics The General Election 2015

[ECA]

6 resigned so far.

Will be interesting to see what the shadow cabinet will end up looking like.
Cardboard cutouts of corbyn perhaps?

It won't make much difference really, as it's all pantomime, but. Cameron will tie him in knots. Corbyn will spout irrelevant crap whilst saying er, and um a lot, and stumbling to get any kind of message across. He is a lousy orator. Just an idealist.

I think he'll do better than Milliband, who always came across as a child exclaiming "but it's so unfair" at his parents, who'd just told him to go to bed.

I think Corbyn winning is a good thing for British politics. We need two main parties who are actually different, not the same.

They don't really get to resign, Corbyn gets to pick his own cabinet there is no way of knowing if Corbyn would want them to stay or if they would have had a job come monday.

 

[Gumbo]

Well they're still shadow cabinet until he announces the new one, so by resigning they aren't getting sacked, but it's all just a question of semantics.

 

[Raven]

Will he be even able to create a shadow cabinet? Did any actual MPs vote for him?

Lets be honest, it isn't new or unique.

Almost all clothes are made in that way nowadays. However the rag trade is actually improving life for workers in many countries. It just sounds horrific to us spoilt Westerners. Once the demand hits these areas hard, wages rise. Because economics.

 

[Job]

Tbh, 100 pound a month is reasonable pay in Nicaragua, if you paid them our minimum wage brain surgeons would be resigning to make t-shirts.

Which has happened. I remember reading about lawyers in Bolivia or somewhere quitting to go and work in factories because their (state-mandated) salaries were so pathetic compared to foreign owned businesses.

I think you missed the irony of my post. It's the Daily Mail ffs.

To be fair to myself it was nearly midnight and I'd had a few

Coxors?!

The left will then paint Cameron as arrogant, and posh, and just cos he can run rings around someone in debate, that just shows how out of touch

He IS arrogant, posh and totally out of touch though.

Remember that guy that went whacko and killed a cop before shooting himself. Gazza tried to talk him down. (lol)

He'd been to his doctor and begged for counselling saying he believed he could be danger to himself and others. But he didn't get the necessary treatment.

After he died a Facebook page was set up which sympathised with him for being a man with mental issues who begged for help but couldn't get it.

Cameron got wind of this and held a press conference in response and said that as a society, and I quote, "we hate these people".

Yep. We hate the mentally unwell who ask for help.

I'll never forget that. As far as I'm concerned that defines Cameron as a man.

 

[Raven]

So you expected the Tories to fix Labour's mess in 2 months?

They had only been in power for less than 2 months...

Besides which, he was a massive cunt, no sympathy whatsoever. Roid raging arsehole.

 

[Gumbo]

He was assessed by experts, you know, not keyboard warriors on forums, as not being mentally ill. He was assessed as just a bad bad man. It is possible you know.

And yup, I hate those kind of people. You could ask what the families of his victims feel about him too.

Raul moat. Or however you spell his last name

 

[Job]

Corbyns deputy, Tom Watson , who is the spit of that American comedien, has the kinda face you just want to slap, and he'll be doing all the talking, that man is a dangerous twat.

 

[Scouse]

So you expected the Tories to fix Labour's mess in 2 months?.

No. I expect him to understand the realities of the situation.

It was clearly horrible on *both* sides of the equation...

Actually - I think he understands that perfectly but doesn't give a fuck because to give a fuck means he'd have to change his politics and ideologies...

 

[Raven]

I see Andy Burnham has jumped on the Corbyntrain. What a cockroach he is.

 

[Raven]

A toothless, weak shadow cabinet including a couple of vile, milittant socialists, a racist and a shitweazle. Wondering why he bothered.

Between them they have no hope at all in the commons and less at the next election.

 

[Job]

Parliment TV should get a ratings boost, might compete with Jeremy Kyle

 

[Gumbo]

That's if Corbyn ever says anything out loud again. He pulled out of Andrew Marr on Sunday, and the Today program today. I can't believe anyone can be taken seriously who is running scared after 2 days in the job. Part of being a politician is getting out there and getting your message across. I expected a few months before he was found out, not a few hours.

 

[Embattle]

I personally don't see how he could do them since he will be put under so much pressure on what he said pre leader and now the realities of the job where he is going to have to back peddle on some of it or at least decide how to handle it.

 

[Scouse]

a racist

Who?

I agree with you on Burnham tho.

 

[Raven]

Abbot.

"White people divide and conquer"

I don't like her but I'd love to see the context of that quote...

That's why he isn't doing them of course. But you don't get to run and hide and be leader of the opposition. You just don't.

 

[Embattle]

I'm not sure he cares about the media, he made that clear thus he will do it in his own time.
