They've been rather insensitive to put this motion into action literally the day following Paul Flynn's passing

Seven Labour MPs appear to have automated de-selection.
0 replies 0 retweets 9 likes Its like thew SDP all over again with a Brexit twist [LBC Reporter tweet: This is the point most people miss. If the metric of success is displacing Labour or even getting many MPs elected then this will fail. Their aim, instead, is to help destroy Corbynism.] Last edited by arista; 18-02-2019 at 11:47 AM. |

The common narrative is that all 7 left because they couldn't work with the current labour party, for whatever reason. They are also correct in that british politics does have to move forward because what we have now isn't working. It doesn't mean they have an answer, they are just highlighting a problem that everyone is aware of. People do want more choice than what is currently available. Whether that means the majority of MP's become independent or whatever, who knows, but it is high time things changed

The entire system needs changed to be quite honest, it's not just that the main parties are a shambles, the voting patterns and political leanings of the general population are simply diversifying to the point where "First Past The Post" is no longer fit for purpose. We need an entirely different electoral system that involves some variety of PR.

I'm getting the impression that Arista is not entirely happy with this breakaway .... it's very subtle, but it's there none the less

Honestly I reckon if the still had rubbery faced Ed as leader they'd be flying right now. Being a bit weird eating a sandwich and having a bad PR team in general isn't looking so bad, considering.

Good on em.
It was bound to happen.The current iteration of Labour don’t represent the values of many Labour voters. Whether it takes off or not is another story. I don’t think these seven would have done this on their own without having discussed it with other MP’s first. There more than likely will be more to come. |
