We can extrapolate that in the opposite direction too. People don't have enough money to live which means they should work more so they'll have less leisure time to spend money, which means... That reasoning is far too simplistic.

Shouldn't companies pay more? In decades past, folks used to be able to support a family on one blue collar job per household and afford to buy their own property. Wage rises haven't kept pace with the cost of living.

What's the problem? Companies are raking in record profits year on year, so why shouldn't their workers be able to support a family? That doesn't make sense.

Corbyn
has won his Brexit Votes
in the Conference.

I don't think any Party can win an election outright.

In fact I'd expect a result similar to 2017 with the Lib Dems the only stronger Party .

Which could make the brexit voting even harder in Parliament.

I have been watching this a lot this week, taking a break every so often to scrape a metal spoon across a metal pan for some light relief.


Apart from TIBB, and its ease at forgiving blackface these days!! I can't ever remember seeing so many hypocrites in one place making thier points heard..

You'll see real hypocrites in the next one.
The CON conference.

I hope they don't all yelp as though they are reaching orgasm when they are voting!

It's very off puting!

The Cons don't really vote at theirs.
It's all just a show.

Rarely any dissension, virtual standing ovations before they even start to speak.

Shaun 23-09-2019 07:12 PM

Find it utterly bizarre how long it's taken them to pick a stance on Remain/Leave... I think the divide on that has pretty much bankrupted Labour for another ten years, sadly.

It's annoyed me.
Not that Labour would ever line up to leaving with no deal.

Also they want a customs union arrangements at least.

I hoped the membership would have swung the vote today to more full remain.

I don't mind the neutral stance, it makes sense to me.
I agree with you though.
It will be a harder sell to voters.

I guess I best get ready for some ridicule or attack when I come across the more stronger brexit views canvassing.

The policies being unfurled however, I love all the way.

They had a rather bad dancer last year while playing ABBA.

Don't think she's booked for this conference sadly though.

Ah well, that's last year...

Did you join in with the, oh Jeremy corbyn football chant?

Beso 23-09-2019 07:48 PM

How is abbot the hypocrite being received these days?

I saw her latest interview about the planned closure of all the posh people's schools. ...ducking and diving like a seasoned conservative mp, as she was faced with the fact she sent her kids to them.


No wonder she ain't on tv much.

No.
He was never my choice of leader and still isn't.

However I support his policies.

I actually support the Party that's all, and as to the social policies, I support it proudly too.
Too many vulnerable people, sick and disabled, have been made to suffer unnecessarily under this vile government for too long.

No matter the jibes, sarcasm and fiction from the press, Labour has my full support.

Fair enough...but to call this government vile, as a staunch supporter of the labour party..makes you as big a hypocrite as the rest of the sorry mob on telly this week.:joker:
