    Glad I got out last season. Couldn’t justify that cost anymore.

    Good work. “Woodchippy” would just be SO wrong. More power to your derailleurs.

    You’re right that they’re terrified of the press. If only someone in power was in a position to order a follow up to the Leveson Inquiry. Unfortunately, that might reveal what the useless prick did to get the job

    Anyone else got one of these? I decided on 7 May 1983 that my then current shirt was getting threadbare, and headed for Simpsons Sports for a replacement for the trip. “We’ve got a box of new eens just in,” quoth the quine in the shop, “Wid ye like een o them?” A rarity, apparently, the only difference from the sark worn by the Dons squad on the night is that the embroidered occasion is a neat straight line rather than the shape of ex-Maroon Rougvie’s angelic smile. The mini-replica ECWC is a Dolly Digital commemorative artefact. We’re having a clear-out currently, and I may put it on the market, but very unwillingly.

    Agree the lack of strength in the LP is pretty damning. Suspect there is a pretty short list of candidates who want to throw themselves on the hand grenade at this point. Rayner is most ‘likeable’ and in normal circumstances would be most likely to appeal to the public but as someone said, our right wing media would have her in the woodchipper within weeks for walking on the cracks in the pavement while Nigel grifts his way up the polls. Feels like there is a sense of inevitability about Reform at this point. It’s a bit like Jambos winning title for me. Two historically dominant powers have an existential crisis and an odious, wanna be serious one emerges to threaten the status quo and it’s not the one I want

    Isn't this just a form of denial? Reform aren't going to be elected in 2029 because of their ability, they're a symptom of a system in collapse. The notion that switching Starmer for Burnham, or Labour for Tory or SNP will make the slightest difference to the structural issues we face is a little silly. I actually don't believe that you, or anyone else on here, has the slightest faith that Burnham could change things to the degree required. It's a call to magical thinking. Extremely unfair on people like Burnham, or Starmer even, but there's still a schadenfreude watching them squirm along the way. The only response to that suggestion will be platitudes that things will be slightly better, or that we "have to do something". It's fairly clear that these sleekit politicians have jumped the gun in their desperation for power. With the absolute shitfest that is Hormuz, the best plan is to quietly wait and see what happens and let Starmer take the meltdown that occurs when we move to rationing.

    True, but Labour need someone and it ain't Streeting or Rayner and it sure as fuck isn't Starmer. Reform in power 2029, isn't appealing.

    Cordon Sanitaire Theyre a minority party of wankers and Swinney doesn’t have to entertain them in the slightest. They’ll spend the next few years asking gotcha questions for their socials & actively hate the place their having to ‘work’ in

    Net zero is pish though. It's what happens when ecologists are drowned out by single issue "environmentalists". Business as usual, but with "green technology" is a very transparent con. Although that won't have been the angle she took!

    What do you all make of Swinney shutting out Reform - would it not have been better to have a code of conduct drawn up and try persuade the others to go along with it and leave Reform looking like the absolute wankers that they are as inevitably they wouldn't have been interested. I worry that by excluding they somehow get more legitimacy than they deserve.

    She was at a hustings I attended a couple of weeks ago - it was primarily about climate change and the first thing she said was blah blah net zero is pish - could not believe she was top of the list for the lothians

    Well if anyone knows about replacing a labour leader, it’s Tom Watson

    DT Politics Thread

    They’re no better than Tories with all this pish. A mix of personal egos and paying too much attention to the media has led to this when they should be getting on with fixing the mess they inherited. It’s amateur dramatics as Tom Watson said this week. If it’s Rayner (and I don’t mind her) she will be absolutely hounded out by the media. She’ll be crucified. Streeting would be dreadful, far worse than Starmer. Burnham ain’t an MP and they’d have to find a VERY safe seat for him to stand in.

    He likes The Smiths so we already know he’s a man of taste and good judgment. Id prefer it if the Labour Party just died though

    Replacing Starmer with Streeting would be absolutely fucking mental. Wes is the only person in the party more unpopular than him So that’s what they’ll do

    Fucking messianic Andy Burnham, eh? Is that what things have come to? Jesus Christ. It's a real wonder that voter turnout is so low.
