  1. Homelessness is a hugely complex problem with much of its problems rooted in addiction. For any Labour or any other politician to claim they can "end homelessness" on top of all the other hugely extravagant and uncosted claims is sadly a lie.
  2. "something quite unpleasant"........your description of institutional racism...my God! "very little practical impact on British Jewish citizens." Those comments illustrates that you have completely failled to understand this issues.
  3. ELECTION 2019 Lord Falconer has ‘gravest concerns’ about Jeremy Corbyn and antisemitism A former Labour justice secretary says he has “the gravest concerns” about Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership after the publication of an “utterly damning” dossier about antisemitism. Lord Falconer of Thoroton said that he “completely understands” why the Jewish community has concerns over whether the Labour leader is fit to be prime minister. He was speaking after a 47-page dossier submitted by the Jewish Labour Movement to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) was leaked. The dossier, which includes evidence from 70 whistleblowers, describes 11 occasions when Mr Corbyn has “associated with, sympathised with and engaged in antisemitism”. It claims that since Mr Corbyn became the Labour leader there has been a “relentless flow of antisemitism” and that there is “overwhelming evidence” that it is “pervasive at all levels of the party”.
  4. Why do people need to look for an excuse to excuse the excuse of our excuses

  6. Guardian Labour Seventy Labour staffers give statements to antisemitism inquiry Testimonies by current and former party workers have been passed to EHRC, lawyer says General election latest - live news Rowena Mason and Matthew Weaver Scores of serving and former Labour officials have given sworn statements about antisemitism in the party as part of evidence submitted to the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s investigation into the issue. James Libson, a lawyer representing the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM), confirmed he had prepared 70 testimonies from current and former staffers as part of the inquiry. In the overarching submission from the JLM, there are detailed allegations of antisemitic abuse at party meetings and by members online, including: One respondent who listed 22 examples of antisemitic abuse at party meetings where he was called “child killer”, “Zio scum”, and “Tory Jew” as well as being told “Hitler was right” and that he was “good with money”. Another who witnessed a comment at a ward meeting that “the only reason we have prostitutes in Seven Sisters is because of the Jews”. A parliamentary candidate who described a councillor being told by a fellow member to go home and count their money after being deselected. The submission also alleges political interference in the disciplinary process by Jeremy Corbyn’s office, despite Labour’s insistence that the leadership has not got involved.

    Power vacuum

    Election fatigue setting in, Tories were ahead on the Lie detector but as each day goes by Labour have caught them up and now pulling away with blatant lies in the home straight, and we all know it, though may not be prepared to accept it. Anyway where is Billy, I’m sure a few of you are ITK😉
  8. Yep my 65 inch is showing all the quality , great thing about a big telly is you can see both halves of the pitch at the same time......now who said that😀
  9. Always been a soft Brexit, now some would say that's a Labour Brexit, and they would possibly be right, but a Labour Brexit will never win a referendum so I am left with a Tory Brexit or no Brexit, if thats the choice then it's a Tory Brexit for me.
  10. I thought you were the one that wished people thought for themselves Herman.The sound of barrels being scraped is deafening.There are many other policy areas where Labour could successfully go after the Tories, there is not enough evidence on this one and people are seeing through it. If Trumpy had let something slip then it could be so different, but atm he is keeping his self discipline. Might not last though!
  11. Flogging away at the "NHS for sale" is not a good strategy imo, if the evidence was there and the Tories were obviously persuing that agenda then great, but as it is they are flogging a horse that died some time ago. Waste of time.
  12. The poll I posted showed the comparison with 2017 where Labour are -8 All these 8's are confusing arent they😉 The overall picture there is a gloomy one for Labour when you consider London is one of their last major strongholds.
