Indeed I do.

Hasn't he got any nurses to harass?

Morrison's was closed.

Fuckwit.

Shows how shite First Past The Post is and why the Tories love it. Even if Khan won 33% is no mandate in my opinion.

Mr Proudfoot thinks Mayor Susan Hall is a price well worth others paying.

But think it’s very unlikely Jez even runs or gets 15%.

Life. Is. Not. A. Fucking. Video. Game.

People like Proudfoot have never had a firm grasp on life and all its implications. I've seen them so often, with their vague and floppy thinking and their belief that whatever shit they think will obtain won't.

Corbyn's cult think Prime Minister Braverman, Chancellor Rees Mogg and Home Secretary Anderson are a price worth paying.

As said before, everyone who says "Come the revolution..." always imagines themselves in the firing squad.

Fair point about Libyan floods not being mentioned. But otherwise, typical pious stuff from Mr Hope.

Maybe it's me, but "fossil fuel giants" sounds like it's targeting Esso and giving Russian and Venezuelan state companies a pass. Anyway, they aren't pulling it out of the ground for a laugh. They're doing it because they can sell it because we want the power from it. Quite a lot of people are doing hard work on the situation, and if it's hope we want, there's hope we can take from that.

Nobody denies we're in a fair bit of shit. But we'd be in a bit less of it if certain people hadn't opposed nuclear power, perhaps. How did that go down in Copeland, eh?

The Guardian periodically does "these are the companies causing the damage".

Can you guess what these 20 companies, without a single exception, do?

Also that is a very flawed study.

Not even that. That'd take rutheless engagement.

They're reading it in the paper, sat in their frontroom, as though nothing changed.

Not just that - a prize worth chasing. Put the very, very worst in power and they expect it to finally trigger their glorious revolution as the masses rise up.

The political equivalent of those batshit American evangelicals who support Israel because they think it will usher in the rapture.

Their model is Russia, November 1917, with the Bolsheviks the only people looking even vaguely organised, and very much the least worst option.

I don't think they're that clever - look at our very own pet Corbynite on here and how he gave Farage more leeway than Starmer. They want Labour to lose because it's not their Labour - they're the spoilt kid smashing up their toys because they didn't get exactly the one they wanted.

Remember folks, Jez is just a regular Continental Social Democrat. He just never mentioned Continental Social Democracy and preferred to talk about Latin American demagogues instead.

This'll be news to a few people in these countries, Howard. And to the OECD, for that matter.

This stuff is odd. Almost like there's a common core to people on the right thinking foreigners are lazy and people like Howard thinking we're uniquely forced to work hard. What is true of course is that workers in these countries have more rights, which is very important, but it doesn't mean Easy Street.
