Come on guys....

 

Fury from a Tory MP who says talk of no confidence letters going in is not misplaced.

 

"My colleagues will rule nothing in and rule nothing out," they say. 

 

"There will come a time where people have to say ‘I know it’ll make us look chaotic, but we can’t go on like this."

 

I Mean it would be absolute turmoil. And would, at very least in the short term, make the financial situation even worse. 

 

But what you need to do is balance that out against it being very very very very funny.

Imagine the scenes of that did happen, it would be hilarious and disastrous.

Imagine if Labour did this!?

It might actually pay to be young. Its always felt to me the country has been in a sort of managed decline for 20 years as the baby boomers have started retiring, taxes slowly going up as public services slowly got worse. Some sort of reset may benefit the youngsters whilst hitting oldies sitting on lots of cash savings and annuities that are not linked to inflation.

The national anthem at labour conference…. Cringeworthy 😞 straight out the Tory manual 

It's probably an over correction after the Palestinian flag waving under Corbyn, however I just accept it's not aimed at me.

I've just spent a lovely week in Spain - better pace of life, nicer weather, cheaper food, etc. Wish I could afford to retire early & move out there!

If it works to make Labour seem more appealing to swing voters then I’m all for it.

I don’t say much of anything about it as I don’t really care.

It’s literally just a song and if it makes Labour more appealing to swing voters then more power to them. It’s so trivial.

You really are a moron.

I dont care either way if they sing the national anthem at the conference. 

 

I dont think it makes them the next BNP though, some people need to cool their jets on it.
