ewerk 26765 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Given Corbyn's track history for rebelling against the leadership it'll be interesting to see how he manages to command any loyalty from the back benches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4003 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Given Corbyn's track history for rebelling against the leadership it'll be interesting to see how he manages to command any loyalty from the back benches. Especially when the back benchers are really the front benchers in hiding. Echoes of Guillit, Shearer and Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Mr McDonnell said he had changed his mind on parliamentary tactics but denied changing his economic policy. He said they had seen the bill as a "gimmick" so had intended to "ridicule it" by voting for it. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-34519164 Not doing himself any favours here.

ChezGiven 0 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Comparing "Ile de France" to any area in the UK other than "greater London" is also not really helpful. Within Ile de France there are areas (the 93 for one) which has millions of people and massive poverty. As the area also covers Paris itself (which is quite small and ridiculously rich) the average figure means the area is overall very rich. From experience, there are worse areas with extensive poverty in the suburbs of Paris than many of those areas. With large populations too.

Gemmill 35332 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The fucking metro station that I got off to go to Monmartre for instance. I felt like I was in Spiral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Bless. Got a mate from work who lives round there, he has 4 kids and his front door is next to a transvestite's fetish store. Not as handy as Deliveroo but it's a perk of inner city living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 35332 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 This place was like a Moroccan bazaar. I thought I was gonna get rolled up in a fancy carpet and thrown in a van. Which is the mega fancy island in the Seine that Yves Montand used to live on (according to my guide book ) ? I thought that was Ile de France and it was swanky as owt.

ChezGiven 0 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Ile de la Cité which is right in the middle of the river. Rich there too. Aye it's best described as 'a bit sketchy' round there. It's a pure tourist trap but it's also near Barbès which is full of crack heads. Town 'planning' at its best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3992 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Unfortunately getting rid of them means people like her not voting for the cunts so you have to engage with them. I've never understood working class tories. Not saying they should automatically vote labour but not recognising their enemy is incredible. I hear them talking about aspiration not realising none of the things which support social mobility are tory inventions or ideals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26765 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Only showing concern when it directly affects you is certainly a Tory trait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6068 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I think most of it comes down to people not doing a bit of research into who they are voting for. They believe the daily mail headlines and that makes their mind up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
