We haz local elections.
We haz a byelection.

Does we haz a grip?

The moneychangers have fled from their high seats in the temple of our civilization. We now restore that temple to the ancient truths. The measure of the restoration lies in the extent to which we apply values more noble than mere monetary profit.

I still see him as Stan from American Dad. I keep expecting to see Sir Patrick Stewart pop up.

It's just a puerile game to the thickos.

She gets it. Suspension for allegations of harrassment isn't that uncommon. How could this possibly be discussed on the conference floor?

Conference happening once a year doesn't exactly make it very suitable for this task anyway.

Starmer could boot Corbyn out a again the day after and that would be it for another year, one presumes.

That's a joke. Jones was talking about Neil Coyle, not Burgon.

Actually, you probably got that, didn't you?

More "proper opposition" (or as some of us call it, Boris Johnson-style bollocks).

Per Full Fact

£37 billion is the two-year budget for Test and Trace. The vast majority is spent on testing not tracing and does not go to Serco.

I mean, yeah, who cares if you just insulted people busing their arses to do testing that everyone apart from Trump agrees has been hugely important to containing a fatal disease. WHY ISNT KIETH SAYING THIS?

He was on the news moaning about Labours position before.

Probably should cross the floor, but he won’t because his seat is a safe one for life isn’t it.

Price caps are a famously brilliant idea, which never lead to shortages or racketeering.

Why does he say this stuff? A prominent Venezuela Solidarity Campaigner should know Maduro dropped price and production controls for precisely these reasons. About to say Burgon’s as bad as Brexiters but he is one and it shows.
