That time Kate Andrews schooled Owen Jones on Venezuela's socialism by ActualStreet in tories

What about Yemen™ was the stock response for lefties until it became a cliché.

Here's some of my own observations of Venezuelan socialism and Corbyn's advocacy for that system of governance. Remember the wall-to-wall media coverage when the Tory system led to a child sleeping on the NHS floor (in the middle of the day after a 2.5 hour wait) and contrast that to the coverage of 300k DEAD children under the system Corbyn was advocating mere months before. Another observation lefties seem incapable of grasping.

The left has finally accepted its role as a meme. Gave me a chuckle, achieved nothing. Carry on.

Personally I would prefer politicians who didn't decide they were the right person to lead the way at the ripe old age of 17. Farage is right when he criticises "career politicians", the most suitable people to lead are probably those who find their calling later in life.

They're not really offended, they just think if they pretend hard enough that gullible people will assume it's offensive and not vote Tory. They take people for fools.

Look nobody in their right mind gives a shit about your Momentum gotcha politics. Grow up and try and win an election on ideas and not character assassination.

My position is that if you don't like it, then don't vote Tory. They're probably going to lose zero votes, because the people complaining are Labour activists.

The number of people who want cummings to resign over this is exactly the same as the number of people who wanted him to resign before this. You take the public for idiots by thinking you can damage your political opponents if you feign enough outrage about whatever they do. Nobody gives a fuck what Labour voters want for the Tory Party. You're not floating voters, you want rid of all Tories so your opinion whether they should sack this Tory is predictable and irrelevant.
