Well, if they were actually advocating "storming the castle" rather than burning down their own village, I might be in favour.
It's a Frankenstein reference...

Not a big fan of D. Miliband. A Blairite who supported the illegal Iraq War, for starters. But obviously better than the current incumbent at No. 10.
I think the trouble with many of us leftists is that we get overcome by morals and hold our representatives to account. The other lot aren't usually bothered about that sort of thing. Party first!
I'm sure most of us at the time disagreed with the Iraq war, and we still don't know the full story of how we were dragged into it by the US (Bush doesn't get anything like the hard time Blair gets on this), but now nearly 20 years later we can't afford to get on our high horses - there are so many important issues to address urgently - pandemic management, climate change, the future of democracy, global poverty, etc. etc. We have to move on from how someone voted 20 years ago, possibly under considerable duress.
And by the way, until the left starts to acknowledge the things Blair did RIGHT, we will never convince waverers or Tories or Lib Dems to vote Labour,

We know exactly how we got dragged into the war along with the US. Read Plan of Attack by Bob Woodward

This is where your bullshit "plandemic", anti-vaccine social media whines and rants get you. Some nutjob messiah with a platform attracts a bunch of likeminded morons, all of whom somehow think they are informed because they "don't watch mainstream media" when in fact they are the modern day equivalent of a bunch of peasants armed with pitchforks and torches shouting "storm the castle!"...

I think if Starmer goes, you're more likely to see Burnham than the "Prince over the water" Miliband. I'm not even sure he's interested.
Although Labour might finally elect a female leader and go for Angela Rayner.
Which would be a disaster, because she would not appeal to 'middle England'.I think if Starmer goes, you're more likely to see Burnham than the "Prince over the water" Miliband. I'm not even sure he's interested.

Someone out there wants you to believe vaccines are bad...

The nasty nurse has said the vaccine will kill everyone who's been double jabbed in two years! Really hope she catches it!
Really wouldn't surprise me if she's actually double jabbed.
He's right embarrassment, makes life better knowing those that say covid is nothing to worry have caught it.Better that life-insurance policy sorted!
I see another fruit-cake - Piers Corbyn - has caught covid.
