Ellie Chowns and the other rural Green voted against, Sian Berry voted for. I think the Greens will probably give up on rural seats, where the Lib Dems can challenge ToryKip better than they can.

This isn't great either. He's picked up stuff we've discussed about Wales being underfunded, but the problem isn't the Barnett Formula, and supporting independence any time soon isn't going to help.

I've never heard anyone suggest a London wealth tax that gets spent (by the sound of it) in London. That's not going to help regional inequality.

Fuck off Zack

Very progressive to say immigrants are great, as they'll do all the crap jobs.

Well do you, Mr Polanski?

[Boiler]

So, Polanski's got the same sense of superiority that plagues so many in this country. A Farage for the Left.

Well, he was never going to get my vote anyway, the prick.

I think Zack's sensible enough to heed this constructive criticism. But again, how do you get to lead a (now) mainstream party of the left with this level of stupidity?

Even worse are the comments BTL in response to James Vaughan, who is a scholar of anti-semitism (not that you have to be one to see the problem of dual loyalty).

Don't know who James Vaughan is but comparing Polanski's views to Oswald Mosley smacks of cheapskate attention seeking.

[Tubby Isaacs]

He's a professor who's studied anti-semitism for 15 years. He's saying that's the history of the trope. He says elsewhere that Polanski isn't prejudiced.

Oh god, the responses are really something .
