'But after months of being isolated and bullied, including being stripped of paid organiser support when I was seven months pregnant, I should have known this was coming. The real reason for it all? I’m too interested in wealth inequality, public ownership and Palestine to be welcomed in today’s Labour party.'
Edit....personally I will have no part in it....a plague on all their houses.

"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."
Perhaps if the Dear Leader she cites in that article has actually bothered to do something about antisemitism in the first place rather than denying, dithering and delaying any kind of action she might now be able to voice her opinions on the disgusting nature of the ongoing actions of an Israel government bent on systematic abuses of human rights and being able to have a grown up debate rather than being stuck with an unimaginative plodder who feels obliged to to come down like a ton of bricks on any kind of grumbling about it now.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

Perhaps if the old guard at HQ hadn't been undermining the Left and got on with allowing the machinery to work.....but regardless none of what has gone before excuses what is happening now and I will not be validating them with my vote.
"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."
When Labour romps to a record victory, I will shrug my shoulders, and raise a glass to the demise of the current incarnation of the Tory party.
I suspect some things I care about will be some degree of 'better' under Starmer's rule, albeit that will be very difficult to measure, but it is hard to get too excited about beyond the satisfaction that this shower of sh!te will finally have had their comeuppance.
What's the alternative? Are you really going to claim they would not be even 1% better than the Tories? For most of the country this is a binary choice.

If you must?

Perhaps not voting for them and giving them legitimacy. Ffs are you really suggesting that 1% better is enough reason?

And the big difference to our lives will be.....
Who knows? Maybe give them a chance and find out? I'm not expecting radical changes but I think most things will improve at least a little bit and a little bit is better than nothing when there are only two possible outcomes.
If not voting would lead to any real change then great, but it won't. I guess you could argue that if you want real change then you should vote reform as Farage has said he will kick off if they get lots of votes and few or no seats.

Do you think that if turnout in an election gets to less than 50% that the winners would have a legitimate right to govern?
Edit....on a related point do any polls record the option of 'not intending to vote for any party?'

For some reason the left of the Labour Party would much rather be holding irreverent fringe meetings to a few other people than be anywhere near power and changing things for the good.
Probably why they are a just a bunch a losers.

Yep...a bunch of wrong'uns just like the woman that the thread began with!! So that would be The Labour Party machine again making sure they get nowhere near power because essentially things must stay as they are.

The left of the Labour Party.
The thing is, the left of party had their chance and fcked it right up.
I have to problem with Shaheen running as an independent though and if its split the vote / Ids gets back in, that's on head office. She's a local, went to the school up the road* and the collage just nearby - she's a perfect potential MP for the area.
* fun fact: its the same one Beckham went to. Maybe Harry kane too, but not sure about him
Edit: just googled and Kane did go there too - maybe I should have sent the boy there! Just seemed a little strict.

It’s notable that the journalist who wrote this piece put more effort in to talk to her than the NEC. I wouldn’t be happy if I was deselected in that manner.
It’s also quite amusing that the apparent reason was because she would hurt the election chances. I bet she’ll hurt them a lot more standing as an independent! It seems incompetence in the party executive isn’t solely a Tory problem lol.
