I'm reminded of the SNP by Starmer's approach. I'm not their biggest fans but they take care of business when they have to. If it were them in this situation with Salmond, who was way more successful for them than Jez, this is what they'd have done.

Looks good at a quick glance. Professional.

You do realise that 'professionalism' is just about the worst insult that can be levelled by the Jezzuits?

Yep, it's right up there with 'successful'.

If its not mincing around at Glasto its pointless.

Their entire attitude is one of "Yebbut they're a mate/did a lot of leafleting/is a good socialist". Missing stairs all over the place.

[visage]

Being seen as a 'good socialist' grants you the superpower of 'solidarity', rendering all other crimes moot.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Good socialists seem to appear in lots of photos slapping each other on the back, or at least they did until Covid.

I don't want them all to go, Labour needs voters like them, with the Greens hovering. But they do seem to be excluding themselves at a rate of knots.

In today’s episode of bullshit doesn’t stand up in court:

[Tubby Isaacs]

Ah, this is about Rosie. I thought at the time that a few people might get into trouble with that they said.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Yeah, Chris. That's the contention. Teaching about Islamophobia.

Here's David Miller on the Israeli plot which is... Jews and Muslims cooking chicken together.

If David Miller had been saying that about any other minority he would have been sacked ASAP.

Professor David Miller has a strange attitude towards some students at Bristol University, where he teaches sociology. This extends even to some of the students on his own course.

To put it bluntly, he thinks that some of the students on his campus, and in his lectures, are agents for a hostile foreign power. He thinks they act under the command of this foreign state as part of a global strategy – an “all-out onslaught”, as he puts it – by this country “to impose their will all over the world.” In particular, he thinks these students are at the forefront of a “campaign of censorship” and “political surveillance” in support of an ideology that, he says, “has no place in any society.”

Who are these young men and women who pose such a threat to Professor Miller, in between logging on to their zoom lectures and trying to make new friends when they aren’t even allowed out of their student accommodation?

I think this is a good reply to the "they say they're Zionists themselves!" gotcha. (No particular connection with Labour here- can we maybe rename and move this thread now?)
