| Anas Sawar, Labour leader in Scotland on 17:39 - Feb 9 by DJR | But not several hours later than it should have been if it were to be effective. Instead, what Sarwar has done has grabbed all the headlines. The expression headless chickens springs to mind. It's almost as if they can't function without being told what to do by McSweeney. |
Saw a great line from a journalist earlier. "Anas Sawar picked a fight with the weakest man in British politics and lost". |  |

| Anas Sawar, Labour leader in Scotland on 17:40 - Feb 9 by lowhouseblue | you're not the only one with principles, so don't try to play the pure and holy card. we disagree politically, you support corbyn's policies that the electorate rejected, but we both have principles. there are many things which this government has done which i support strongly. most of them are long-term and slow burn which was exactly what people have been demanding. that is in the context of an appalling economic inheritance. from the bond markets to the public reaction to even moderate tax changes, financially the restrictions are very real. equally it has had more than it's share of cock-ups which is frustrating. partly it suffers from starmer not being a politician and lacking those nastier skills. seriously though, it you just want to wave your principles about then corbyn's party is the one for you. |
The public never rejected those policies - they were popular. The Greens are running with the same policies - they are going to replace Labour nationally. You and I may have principles but this government never has and that's why they are toast. |  | |  |

Maybe they'll now be putting pictures of Starmer rather than Sarwar on election leaflets for the Scottish Parliament elections. [Post edited 9 Feb 17:49]

I'm not keen on a Reform government. I came to the conclusion a while ago it was inevitable because of the Mcsweeney project. I think we might have to go through it to get to something better unfortunately. The libs tantrum over Corbyn and Brexit has brought us here and they are still going to miss the point. |  | |  |

They have a huge majority. Why would they call an election they will almost certainly lose? In what way will the government collapse? |  | |  |

it's not inevitable, it's 3 years off, a hell of a lot can happen before then! don't wish a reform government on us, the damage to the country would be irreversible |  |

individually policies may have had support in opinion polls, but when put together they weren't credible. given the choice, swing voters went for boris instead, which is all anyone needs to know. and even the promise of free broadband didn't inspire them! we'll see how the greens do in 2028 or 2029.

No way KM is a Tory. Irish Catholic, Celtic/Utd supporter! I assume his political philosophy mirrors his footballing one. Redistribution of goals around the team, industrial work ethic, working for the common good. We're clearly stronger on the left wing too. |  | |  |

I don't see Johnson's behaviour as being disrespectful to the victims of COVID. It was disrespectful to those of us who followed the rules to the letter of the law and had to arrange family funerals and deciding who would miss out on attending. [Post edited 9 Feb 18:24]

I don’t think his Brexit position was much of a factor, even if people moaned about a lot. If it was, wouldn’t the LDs have picked up a lot more than they did? They had a slight uptick in 2019 but were still well down on where they were before their 2015 collapse. Maybe I’m wrong about that, but it didn’t change my vote. A lot of people held their noses and stuck with him because Labour were the realistic option to the horrific Tories in 2019. |  |

Football - correct. Politics - incorrect. It didn't have to be Corbyn. Just needs someone with principles like that. Sometimes life is black and white. This government was always doomed because of it's character imo. |  | |  |

| Anas Sawar, Labour leader in Scotland on 17:05 - Feb 9 by jasondozzell | Several problems here. How are you proposing the strong leadership that the country needs on the global stage is going to come from a fatally wounded PM who has proven consistently that he has catastrophically poor judgement, no political programme and is presiding over a party that is entirely rotten and has been built and shaped in the New Labour image of Mandelson for the last 40 years? Secondly, the idea this is navel gazing from 'far left' members who are out of step with the country is total nonsense. It's lazy analysis and the result of people swallowing the idea that Corbyn etc and moderate democratic socialism was beyond the pale and unelectable. It was only the case because of the hatchet job that Mandelson and Mcsweeney did! Mcsweeney has no political ability whatsoever but he was an effective wrecker. The entire Labour party needs to be burnt to the ground. It's been revealed for what it has become - a vehicle captured by a nasty and self serving elite who are entirely out of touch. And anyone thinking Burnham is the answer - god help them. |
Firstly, Starmer’s handling of global affairs has generally been seen as a success by all and sundry even if a lot else hasn’t been great Secondly, I haven’t spoken about navel gazing from ‘far left’ members. I’m taking above navel gazing and a massive distraction when lots else going on; and that the membership are to the left of the electorate |  |
