Ironic, but now, it is recognized that he was right all along

How silly.

If you can't see the chasm between standing alongside masked men with guns, and extending the hand of friendship to someone who has long since disavowed armed struggle, then there really is no hope ...

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

So invited "IRA representatives" to the Commons a fortnight after the Brighton bombing in 1984 and, at a Troops Out meeting in 1987"

where these guys "masked men with guns"? at the Commons? ...

And do you believe that Jerry Adams was never member of the IRA? right? Then I believe in tooth-fairies too.

Saying all this, please note my earlier post "I believe in some things but I am not practicing them"

and a non-confrontational answer is

"Corbyn showed that reconciliation between the two sides was the way, he was ahead of its time"

but I chose Camilla's hubby photo instead.:)

Lets just say that Corbyns timing could have been better :)

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

Wrong. In so many ways.

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

Not sure Corbyn will drag Labour to the left (unless he wins it). This isn't the US primaries. No one really pays attention to internal leadership election debates here and even if they did there is 5 years to come to establish themselves and work it out in opposition, not the months US candidates have. If Cooper or Kendell win it then that will also distance themselves from the more lefty parts of the party.

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

So, Red Len's crew have backed Corbyn. Given the Miliband debacle, I'm beginning to think their senior ranks have been infiltrated by Tories... :D

Oh what nincompoops they are.

The key is that they've selected Andy 'Did I mention I am Northern?' Burnham as their secondary preference. If all their members vote as told then Burnham wins.

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

From what I gather from Labour voters in Stevenage, votes will be split between Cooper and Burnham. Nobody else is trusted. So a continuation of the Miliband rubbish then. Could we see another 18 years of Tory rule?

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

If the unions cause Labour to lurch to the left, then yes. :)

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

Seriously, who'd vote for any of these plonkers?

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

18 years is a long time in politics as we all know.

Re: Who will lead the Labour Party?
 

The same people who voted Ed into leadership over David. Would we have a Labour government now if David had been leading the Party? Sadly, this is one that we will never know the answer to.
