Do you have to do a google search for current news items then - you poor thing. I would have thought you would be more up-to-date than that!

This champagne drinking, cigar smoking, Jaguar driving ex Scotish conservative MP is a biased journalist who spends his life twittering all things bad about Corbyn and he's not very good at it.

Unlike all those biased Guardian and Independent journalists the left love to quote. The facts are still the facts as demonstrated by Corbyn's continued electioneering several months after the election and constant u-turns on Brexit. It all adds up!

Article opens;

"A year ago, Labour was on the wrong side of history"

Just Labour was it? Is that how we're remembering Brexit? Tories were all for it and Labour against?










Another trash article Brillo, you need to start being more discerning . When the first bloody SENTENCE is biased, revisionist nonsense you know you're in for something special.

Not a wise move.
It's all a bit transparent as to his reasons.

Pick your battles, Brillo. Who cares that a career politician was driving his career, when, as pointed out above, everyone was at it?

All adds up to what?!?! This isn't news... he's not telling us anything we don't know. This is just a spit and venom blog that has people like you sitting up and taking notice. There's nothing new in that Tory article other than Monteith's own twist and very deliberate negatives like, cunning plan and fatally flawed, downfall, disaster, damaging, exposed, deceiver, rat and crisis, to have us all believe the Labour party are a cunning manipulative bunch of ******s but he really wouldn't bother putting pen to paper if he didn't genuinely see the Labour party as the real threat that it is.

The difference for me is that a few on here will insist on keep painting him as purer than the driven snow, a so-called 'principled' polititian when he clearly isn't. He gets down and dirty with the rest of them and is no more trustworthy.

I think his confused messages on the EU could be a shot in the foot with all those Labour voters who voted leave but the rapturous worshippers will worship regardless. I expect time will tell. The problem with people who think you can do no wrong surrounding you is that you start to believe it. He needs to look at May and the last election to see how that turned out.

Well, if you pick on him for every little thing, like holding an umbrella or acting like a politician, people will just roll their eyes pre-emptively when you mention something substantive, you'll open yourself up to "here we go agains" without people listening.

Point taken! I suspect I have a looser grasp on self-control than you when annoyed by something.

My guess is that is your goal with these threads that you spam across the forum.
This opinion piece from the director of an organisation that has been structured specifically with the goal of moving the UK from the EU since 1997 is not in any place to judge anyone elses motives.



What is wrong with campaigning and preparedness in these politically uncertain times anyway?...

Don't tell me to calm down when you spend all your spare time hunting out nonsense like what you posted in the op. I'm not trying to get a hysterical message across.

Tbh the topic should have ended here. The article is trash and revisionist.

As I have told you previously I don't need to hunt down articles. If one of interest to me pops up on my screen when I log in that suits me.

It wasn't me being hysterical btw. I simply created a thread on a current newsworthy article. You come on here quite a lot yourself expressing your views or are only those with the 'right' views allowed to do so. This throwing toys out of prams malarkey by some because the subject matter is not in keeping with their personal/political views is tedious.

I assume that's the point of posting the article.

You only bring up Corbyn to bait a response from people, it's why your go to argument in any debate is to bring him up even when he isn't related to the subject, because it's a targeted attack on the person you disagree with.

Why because it is critical of 'king' Corbyn? The attempt to control what news subjects can be posted on here is what is more off-putting.

Because, if you acknowledged TS' post instead of ignoring it because you can't argue against it, then you would have to accept that the article tried to make out that only Labour Supported Remain when the issue of Brexit divided ALL the parties. From the very first sentence it had a critical inaccuracy that informed the rest of the article, thus voiding it of validity.

Again, you keep trying to attack people by making out they worship Corbyn but you are the only one that talks about him anymore. You are the one making topics about him, you are the one bringing him up in unrelated topics. You are obsessed with him and no one else is. You are confusing your imagination in which everyone worships Corbyn to the reality in which you are the only one talking about him and that's quite worrying.

Have you checked the date of the article - it is current news, you know something on our TVs and in our newspapers daily. Our country is experiencing uncertain times and many are interested in current events that affect all our lives even if you aren't. That isn't attacking people - it is presenting a different opinion. You are the one obsessed, obsessed with the word obsessed - as you have accused me of being obsessed about several different things. This is Serious Debates is it not, or are we only supposed to be interested in sex dolls and sausage rolls!

No, what's off putting is you attempting to pass an opinion piece off as fact.

You think the Guardian reporters don't present opinion pieces in their articles. Wake-up!

Please point what part of the article was a lie?

Then why are you focusing on the leader of the opposition? The person who is maintaining the status quo for some while subjecting others to a life of poverty and degradation is the current govt... Where are the voxpops in relation to that?

Discussing Corbyn at the moment is tantamount to discussion on sausage rolls as he is no the one in power making all the decisions is he?...
