Jess Phillips MP 09:30 - Mar 14 with 1899 views | BanksterDebtSlave | A conviction politician...at least you are left in no doubt that she speaks from the heart and means what she says. Wish there were more like her. Very good on Andrew Marr just now. |  |

Jess Phillips MP on 09:34 - Mar 14 with 1533 views | tractordownsouth | I quite like her, I think she'd be quite good in a role within the Home Office at some point if Labour ever get into power - she's shadow Domestic Violence Minister at the moment. I was disappointed with her in the leadership contest though. I was open to voting for her but she was very unprepared for the hustings and looked like she didn't want to be there. In the end I wasn't surprised when she dropped out. |  |

That rather than seeing so many traffic wardens ticketing cars it would be nice to see people protecting people's safety...but woman aren't as important as cars! |  |

I like Jess, too. She was subject to a huge personal vendetta campaign from the Corbynistas because she had dared speak out against the Dear Leader and knew by then that she couldn't possibly win. So instead we got Sir Keir. Who is now subject to a huge personal vendetta campaign from the Corbynistas and also looks like he doesn't want to be there. He is always thoroughly prepared, though. |  | |  |

I would undoubtedly take issue with a lot of what she says but I have no doubt that she is genuine and well intentioned in her motive. (Kind of the antithesis to a Chukka) |  |

Yup but he wouldn't know a conviction if he tripped over one. |  |

what a thing to say about a former dpp |  |

Its long been the same, look at the sentences people get for financial fraud compared to assault, rape, abuse etc. Money is seen as more important than people to the justice system |  |

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen you call for a bigger police presence on our streets. |  |

“ That rather than seeing so many traffic wardens ticketing cars it would be nice to see people protecting people's safetY” Who are these people then? Vigilante groups? Private security? Your Jess Phillips quote suggests she wants the police to prioritise keeping people safe over ticketing illegally parked motorists? |  |

Community organised groups paid for out of taxes. Think traffic wardens but looking out for people. [Post edited 14 Mar 2021 9:59]

What powers would you give them? Who would they take their lead from? Would you give them powers of arrest? Could they legally use force or restrain suspects? |  |

Would they be effective? Open to the idea but not sure how seriously they would be taken. |  |

Organised by the community for the community...@narcho syndicalism in action. |  |

This is the problem. If not, they are useless. If so, they are basically a competing police force. |  |

....so, anyway, not the police! Edit...once you form your local syndicalist group you can start thrashing out the answers to your questions. [Post edited 14 Mar 2021 10:06]

Problem is, even if it is a syndicalist militia patrolling the streets, they still need the same framework, guidance and supervision as that outlined. If you take the example of the Spanish Republic, things were actually very tightly organised, albeit on a local level. |  |

I would say the Starmer negativity comes from him being completely useless, tbh. |  |

Jess Phillips MP on 10:15 - Mar 14 with 1208 views | Darth_Koont | Leadership bid? Personally, I fear she’s as equally lacking in policies – and populist centrism doesn’t fill me with any confidence at all. There needs to be a compelling vision of what the UK could become as a country and what needs to change to get there. Tweaking around social issues is on the surface better than nothing but If it obscures the greater injustices and imbalances then it’s possibly doing even more harm than good. It would be like making our response to climate change about using fewer plastic bags and buying organic avocados. |  |
