Jeremy Corbyn: statesman or scapegoat.

At a meeting of the Fabian Society:
Speaker: What do we want?
Members: Gradual change!
Speaker: When do we want it?
Members: In due course!

As a non-UK citizen, you can join the SNP, Ukip, the Greens and the Lib Dems, who allow people living anywhere in the world to join. You could join the Conservatives if you were resident in the UK, and you could join Labour if you were resident and had been for at least a year.

I know. I had had a discussion about this ages ago - the last time in the Locarno Room (Jack Straw didn't really listen to my problem, though, but he said "hello"!)

He was president of the National Union of Students when I was at college; he hasn't changed, it seems.

Wow! The cavalry just rode in!

Corbyn blamed for not protecting MPs from bullying? This isn't terribly explanatory. I'll try to find a more detailed piece.

I just read today’s front pages...

What it is about Labour’s plans to make the super-rich pay their fair share that the billionaire press barons don’t like?

Cheering @jeremycorbyn today. #Funfact UK polls close at 10pm & journalists are banned from speculating on TV/radio/online re: outcome of election-Any outlet attempting 2 shape the outcome faces fines

Hmm it’s almost as if the US makes it harder to vote &doesn’t like democracy😒

Boris is in with promises of a post-Brexit chlorinated chicken in every pot.

I’m very sad for the UK. I get the impetus for Brexit, but Johnson’s other plans don’t bode well for the future of the NHS, or the fight against austerity.
