Is May the PM or trying to become PM?
Yep, but a brilliant radio host

True, but then does Labour need to be the largest party? All Labour needs is enough seats to be able to form a coalition with the SNP and Boris to not get enough seats to form a government without a coalition. I really don’t think that there’s anyone who will form a coalition with him. The DUP won’t unless he renegotiates his deal with the EU, even then I’m not convinced that the DUP will retain enough seats to be in that position anyway. Lib Dem’s, no way. Brexit Party, can’t see them winning any seats. Unless the Tories can win an outright majority they’re screwed.Ultimately there is nothing to crow about if they are still the largest party.
Is it Corbyn himself who’s been accused of antisemitism or party members? It’s the later isn’t it? In which case a Tory Party member has put the leader in the same position Labour Party members have put the Labour Party leader in so you being the apparent king of neutrality should be treating both parties with the same contempt.Is May the PM or trying to become PM?
Unless labour get starmer in charge the tories will be I’m afraid.Ultimately there is nothing to crow about if they are still the largest party.
Something I have missed. What are the details?She is a senior member of the Tories, (a party who claim to be so concerned with antisemitism) and an ex PM who has honoured a woman who said 'Hitler was a solution to the Jew problem."
If you don't think that's at best hypocritical, then good for you.
It was shameful. He can try and defend it all he likes, but to send Gove and his dad in, complete with film crew, is disrespectful and not taking the global climate crisis seriously enough at all.
I have now had three Tory leaflets through my door and had a phone call off them too. They seem rather desperate for my vote.
In the same period, I have had one Labour leaflet. Nothing from any other party.
I have never, ever had a Labour candidate come to my door before.At least the conservative candidate is local and might know where Keresley is
I have never, ever had a Labour candidate come to my door before.
I don't know much at all about this new Labour candidate unfortunately.
Yes, Robinson. Couldn't stand the man.Well I assume it was Robinson? The candidate now is a 27 year old from London selected for the constituency by head office
As an aside (and it's not just the Labour Party who do this of course), I find it utterly bizarre that candidates so out of touch can be parachuted in. Surely at least having got involved in the local area for a couple of years beforehand makes sense, even if they're not local themselves? It's just an easy stick to beat with, and increases the chances of losing a seat too... something which would be catastrophic for Labour in this instance. If Coventry were to fall, where would it end?The candidate now is a 27 year old from London selected for the constituency by head office

I suppose it is mitigated that Robinson barely set foot in his constituency, so it's not like we're downgrading! It's Coventry South where that could have more of an effect, as he was involved in local issues.
So your position is, it's Ok for a politician to honour a renown antisemite as long as it's not Corbyn.Something I have missed. What are the details?
A bit like the comment I made yesterday where Corbyn said the BBC is biased because it said Israel should exist. That is caught on video. But not one comment on here.
Would anyone like to watch the video of him saying so?
Here are a few details. Good for those in denial.
Video re-emerges of Corbyn saying BBC is biased towards saying “Israel has a right to exist”
Of course you have.So your position is, it's Ok for a politician to honour a renown antisemite as long as it's not Corbyn.
Your desire to argue with everyone is driving you to post even more nonsensical gibberish by the day.
Carry on, I've got better things to do.

Of course you have.
You want to make it loud and clear that someone close to May.....who isn't in the running to lead the UK......has said something wrong. But Corbyn......who is in the running to become the PM of the UK.....has said something wrong and you don't want to talk about it at all.
And now you say it is me wanting to argue with everyone. What utter bullshit.
It is you and others that wants to hold every Tory to account. And so they should be. But as soon as it comes to Corbyn he can't do anything wrong. Not even when it is on video. Isn't it a shame you can't just call it bullshit because the evidence is there.
And some wonder why I call this thread Labour propaganda.
You and Fernando are both right.
He does his job well, very bright but also lacks the ability to empathise with peoples views he disagrees with (because he’s never wrong !)
It was shameful. He can try and defend it all he likes, but to send Gove and his dad in, complete with film crew, is disrespectful and not taking the global climate crisis seriously enough at all.

So it is OK for him to have a go against Israel and their system existing?What has Corbyn said that is so wrong? Why is there so much desire to paint as a bigot the man who protested against apartheid and the Iraq War when our own governments were defending them?
No mate, a hard Brexit can be leaving without a agreement but you say it with certainty. I think you need to learn the meaning of the word 'subset' - a no agreement outcome is a subset of all the possible Hard Brexits, but there are many other Hard Brexits that are possible. Let me get you an Oxford dictionary for Christmas :happy:So a hard Brexit is leaving with an agreement but something softer is leaving without an agreement? What planet are you on?
Or are you saying that no agreement is a hard Brexit and that you were totally wrong? Whichever way round it is you are not looking very clued up on what is occurring.
And this shows the absolute bias on here. You have someone as clueless as yourself and not a single person on the same side of the fence as yourself......Labour whatever happens......says a single word. But some wait for me to make a post so they can try their best to discredit the post even when backed up with 100% evidence.
Say what a hard Brexit is exactly. Then I will bring up what you said I was wrong about.No mate, a hard Brexit can be leaving without a agreement but you say it with certainty.

I certainly don't know everything about Brexit, and I have consulted Investopedia on this matter, I know there's a difference. Who'd I rather believe - Investopedia or someone who calls themselves Astute on Coventry City General Chat? I think I've made my mind up...
So it is OK for him to have a go against Israel and their system existing?
Did you know that about 3/4 of Israel are Jewish?
Don't worry. It is more important that someone May knows said something.
He said the BBC was biased for saying that Israel had the right to exist. Since when did he have the right to choose what countries should or shouldn't exist? He said it on a TV channel that is now banned. It was the one he got paid quite well on.Did he say that Israel have no right to exist, or merely that if Israel must exist then so should Palestine - and that they must exist together?
It’s very well documented he believes in a 2 state solution.
Clearly we can add you to the list of 'dont-knoers' based on recent evidence :joyful:Say what a hard Brexit is exactly. Then I will bring up what you said I was wrong about.
So what agreement would there be in a hard Brexit? Just because you found somewhere that said there is a slight chance of having some sort of agreement and still have one.
Just remember you was the only person on here that didn't know what hard Brexit meant.
Either you still don't have a clue or you are trying to make it look as though you do but won't fool anyone.Clearly we can add you to the list of 'dont-knoers' based on recent evidence :joyful:
Our good friend Investopedia has already explained thatlayful:
Example of Hard Brexit that is not a no deal - let's say hypothetically that the UK gets a Canada plus style agreement with the EU and gives up single market access etc/other features entailed within a Hard Brexit. Then that's a hard Brexit but not a No Deal...
Nope, I have no one to fool and happily admit my flaws - it's why I don't put myself on a pedestal by naming myself something like 'Astute'. You Sir, are the opposite and have gone down a notch...Either you still don't have a clue or you are trying to make it look as though you do but won't fool anyone.
Yeah OK.Nope, I have no one to fool and happily admit my flaws - it's why I don't put myself on a pedestal by naming myself something like 'Astute'. You Sir, are the opposite and have gone down a notch...
I still believe Investopedia by the way :joyful:
High five then - we're now twins! The only person who didn't know has now caught up and overturned the 'in-the-know' status of 'Astute'!Yeah OK.
You are funny. Everyone knows the meaning of hard Brexit except for yourself.
Carry on.
So it is OK for him to have a go against Israel and their system existing?

Don't worry. It is more important that someone May knows said something.
No. Have had enough of the propaganda on here. You say Corbyn and Labour are not defended on here. But all you have to do is look at the posts.
You agree that Corbyn is the wrong person to lead Labour yet defend everything he does.
Yes it kind of does. I don't want a coalition with a party that's only focussed on breaking the union and nor do I want perpetual hung parliaments.
So lets see.High five then - we're now twins! The only person who didn't know has now caught up and overturned the 'in-the-know' status of 'Astute'!
You can fool me, but you can't fool Investopedia
Why have a coalition focused on breaking the union when you can have a majority party that is likely to bring it about whether it intends to or not with the NI border?
Choose one there's a decent chance Scots will get a 2nd ref. Choose the other and you embolden both the Irish unification due to the border issue and the Scots for being taken out of the EU against their will.
Either way the Union will potentially be at risk.
