The caring left.....willing to cancel everything they say for a bit of power....sounds like the UK to me. |

I don't see it as hypocritical, being pro-immigration isn't inherently a left wing position.

As I remember it was cons who entered into coalition with lib dems and then DUP On both occasions ditching part of their commitments and also bribing dup with 1 billion pounds That's what I call doing anything for a bit of power So get your facts right before you post |

Get yourself a consistent position on the issue and stick to it, regardless of the country. Then we can talk otherwise it's just opportunistic trolling |

You don't get much further left than the Communist Party. China have, at this moment, hundreds of thousands - some say millions - of Muslims incarcerated in internment camps in Xinjiang. And those camps are expanding. The Labour Shadow Chancellor is a big Mao fan as I recall.... He produced his Little Red Book in Parliament. At any socialist rally you'll see Stalin (bigger mass murderer than Hitler) and Mao flags. China is rife with Human Rights abuses... but the focus of the Left is.... the Right.

Well Parmy, it's China. And on the few occasions I've mentioned it, no response from those bent out of shape about Trump. These are not people trying to enter China illegally, they are Chinese citizens.

But I'd like to disabuse you of your fanciful notion that left leaning fms equals corbyn supporters equals fans of the Chinese regime |

If by bent out of Shape you mean not expecting our supposed closest ally to behave like known human rights abusers ... Thiis should really be obvious.

And yet there are Mao flags flown at socialist rallies, where Corbyn and McDonnell are regularly found. Its a big double standard.
