[British filmmaker Ken Loach has said
he has been kicked out of the Labour Party

for supporting others who have been expelled.
The 85-year-old lifelong socialist said
there was a "purge" and a "witch-hunt" in
the party as he criticised
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.]

Johnsons appeal has always been cruelty, and never kindness.

Of course those things should be in place .
Labour has been trying to get support with those policies for some time, sadly with this terrible Tory government I don't have faith .

I think the tide is slowly starting to turn against this detestable government and Prime Minister GoldHeart.

Starmer needs to start hammering these kind of messages home more and more.

It's a tough ask to win power at the next election outright..
However with the SNP in the main, more supportive of social decency policies.
The strong anti Con make up of opposition parties at Westminster.
Apart from the DUP that is.

Then the Cons overall majority could easily be removed strongly at the next election.
Paving the way for a Labour led government with hopefully SNP support.

Things like those simple statements above from Starmer are relevant and as I said should have been done already..
Glad you think so too.

Yeah if SNP and Labour could work together , then we might actually get somewhere.

I guess we'll have to see what happens next . It's all important , and it affects not just us but the next generation.

From Politics Live BBC2HD
Keir Starmer wants to change how they elect a Labour Leader
he wants to return to the MP's to pick the leader
before Ed Miliboy'
changed it, in 2015.

It is beyond my own understanding why Starmer is creating this issue now.
His first major conference as leader coming up.
This will be the distraction in the media, overblown as to its importance.

It has me just about starting to think Starmer isn't too bothered about winning the next election.

We have mountains to climb not just one.
If Johnson gets the election done after the new boundary changes come into play, then that gives the Cons more seats and Labour a few less on 2019 anyway.

So to raise this election of leader issue seems to me, an unnecessary waste of time and energy.
Not to mention the discord this could cause throughout the Labour movement.

I'm really puzzled as to Starmer actually.
