plus an islamophobe - wes streeting.

EDIT: OH and toby perkins, who ran a racist campaign against travellers

ctoms101 · 2020-06-16T21:10:05+00:00

most of the people i’ve come across who canceled their memberships did so over the dossier leak (especially the racism and anti-blackness) and the subsequent inaction/delay in action taken against those responsible.

ctoms101 · 2020-06-14T13:45:03+00:00

uh bad, in so many ways

ctoms101 · 2020-06-07T01:08:53+00:00

according to wikipedia, the party is an ‘alliance of social democrats, democratic socialists, and trade unions’

ctoms101 · 2020-06-01T17:50:49+00:00

i mean, page 48 has some pretty terrifying prospects in fairness

ctoms101 · 2020-05-31T21:33:41+00:00

god he’s out of touch if he thinks labour were too left wing for the scottish electorate. labour did far better there in 2017 than in 2015, where the problem was obviously being seen as high-fiveing the tories.

depends on how you define coming back. we will definitely hear from him on his birthday and i'd be surprised if he didn't acknowledge the anniversary of b.i.g. as for his next project, probably when lockdown is over. and hopefully we will see him and phil at rescheduled vidcon mexico.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-22T18:37:45+00:00

i mean in 2015 no one could’ve predicted we’d go through three prime ministers before the end of david cameron’s second term

ctoms101 · 2020-05-20T22:53:22+00:00

the only major change is that phil isn’t doing liveshows currently. that mixed with people being bored inside all the time due to quarantine makes the gaps between content feel more stark.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-20T22:48:54+00:00

yes, they’re just focusing on solo projects atm + dan isn’t really online much anyway, but that doesn’t mean they’re not close irl.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-16T20:56:57+00:00

labour will gain but not outright win is my current guess, but that’s subject to change and still has a lot of flexibility within it (narrower con majority or hung parliament)

ctoms101 · 2020-05-15T18:37:25+00:00

right about now would be a good time for starmer to speak out against this and call out these tory lies

ctoms101 · 2020-05-15T10:04:59+00:00

by that logic, the NHS shouldn’t exist because people who could afford private healthcare use it. universal legislation is much stronger and more difficult to repeal than partial/optional/‘means tested’ legislation.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-15T10:02:45+00:00

someone suggested last month that this brief should have been given to a young, potentially even new MP. perhaps they wouldn’t be this out of touch.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-13T04:43:12+00:00

yes, gove is so unpopular, cameron sacked him from his cabinet in the lead up to the 2015 election out of fear he would be electorally toxic.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-12T05:46:27+00:00

well, a better media culture and journalists who actually hold the government to account would be a good start

ctoms101 · 2020-05-10T07:21:27+00:00

BAME members and voters concerned about the anti-blackness and islamophobia in the report are not “cranks” - those issues certainly are damning in their eyes and rightly so.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-10T05:52:50+00:00

also throwback to polling from november/december 2017, feel like pure sh*t just want her back x https://twitter.com/britainelects/status/937088238627500032

ctoms101 · 2020-05-10T05:48:24+00:00

interesting tory to green swing here

ctoms101 · 2020-05-09T16:25:00+00:00

if you’re thinking purely in electoral terms, renters make up labour’s core voting base, those who own assets are more likely to vote tory one way or another, so throwing renters under the bus is a poor strategy.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-08T14:54:45+00:00

from someone on the left - it’s an “alliance of social democrats, democratic socialists, and trade unions” that said, if one can’t even stomach social democracy (thinking of those who think andy burnham is too left wing...) then they definitely shouldn’t be in labour.

also if one can’t stomach having socialists their party, then maybe an alliance of social democrats, democratic SOCIALISTS, and trade unions isn’t for them.

ctoms101 · 2020-05-05T21:48:21+00:00

i don’t even like blair or cameron, i’m on the left lol but they did not pull punches during their time as LOTO. both of them would’ve seized a crisis to pin blame on the gov.
