Anyone else notice the stony face on Sadiq Khan when JC says "labour's now managed to get a Muslim in as London Mayor" (or words to that effect)

A bit like Ricky Gervais, look here's my brown friend, do a little dance and wear you hat brown friend.

Fnnily enough I spotted that too. I didn't think it was because of the line Muslim Mayor or however it was phrased. I just thought it was through all the lines he said about Khan. Personally I thought it contrasted wildly with the "juniors " reaction to being thanked by "Uncle Jezza"
I genuinely cringed at some of their "ooh he's mentioned my name I'm all embarrassed now" reactions. Then again my jaw dropped when I saw Cat Smiths speech to conference, it was childish ,amateurish and simply embarrassing. It was then followed by one even worse.
So that was the "new guard" what about the old ? I saw two one was Andy Burnhams and the other Yvette Cooper - I cannot describe the contempt I have for this woman. her patronising lecturing style is just so typical of how they (Labour) were up to the election of Corbyn. Cooper I think is one of the most vile women in politics

How was the conference?

[pim]

Is this the Tory party conference on here?

What a negative bunch.If it wasn't for the Labour party you be all paying private for your healthcare.The Tories are making a good effort destroying what is left of it.

We have now the working poor.Zero hrs contracts and the majority of kids having a poor education.Take the mick out of Jeremy at your leisure.If you think Theresa is the answer.

You know you've made a good point in this thread when the only responses are one line school yard insults.

And the alternative is paying taxes for my healthcare. And half a dozen others. You're really not selling it for me.

Not quickly enough.

Ooh a poem. The working poor we have always had? Labour policies like tuition fees and working tax credits will make sure they are stuck there for generations.

pim said:

...the majority of kids having a poor education.

Evidently. If only we had something like grammar schools.

pim said:

Will do.

Don't keep us hanging. If we think Theresa is the answer, what? Is there a part 2? I can't wait.

[Stickyfinger]

BUT......Grammar schools really do not work do they ?



He achieved two E-grade A-Levels before leaving GRAMMAR school at 18
Corbyn began a course in Trade Union Studies at North London Polytechnic but left after a series of arguments with his tutors over the curriculum, he thus obtained fk-all.
Corbyn has not had a paid for profit job EVER

On a slightly off-topic subject, but one which I think is strangely related in some way.

I was watching one of those compilations of TV of the 70's the other day - you know, the ones that basically cherry pick the worst, most racist and bigoted stuff they can find so we can congratulate ourselves that we live in such enlightened times.

Anyway, the Wheel Tappers and Shunters Club was featured, specifically a piece with Marti Caine. I have to say that I was genuinely shocked; she came on stage and started with the line "Well, you don't see many s round here". Followed immediately by "The Chinese have discovered they taste like chicken" I knew the 70's wasn't known for its politically correct world view but what the actual fk was that all about? If someone had told me that they'd seen that on TV in the 1970's I don't think I'd believe them.

On the positive side though, there was probably a power strike on at the time so few people will have seen it!

Zero hours contract caused by uncontrolled immigration with a massive influx of cheap labour meaning employers can just say “That's the contract take it or leave it there are another 10 people that will do the job if you don't.” Schools are strained by the increase in pupils and the fact many don't speak english doesn't help needing extra resources all bringing down the quality of education.
Also its working class areas that the immigrant tend to live changing the local communities beyond recognition. Without consent from the locals living there.

It's all well and good saying they will invest that's easy to say just grow magic money trees which they most be able to do.
Corbyn will do f all for the working class he will just end up giving money to the non working class and bankrupt the country in the process.

Exactly, and Corbyn wants not just to throw the doors open to unlimited immigration, he wants to set fire to them - open borders. The class he's supposed to represent will regret to their dying day the time they voted for him.

Treat the school yard as the schoolyard. Such idealistic naive guff needs to be treated with hilarity, quite simple because its laughably daft.

On this point at least, it's not so clear. I sit on an advisory board for a charity that provides reading support in primary schools. The largest ethnic groups needing support are native born Brits. Yes, I was surprised too. Not to say immigrants don't need and get support as well, however they have an incentive to learn the language of their new countries.

[BigMon]

I would describe myself as centrist rather than right or left wing. I grew up in Sheffield in the 80's, experienced the full 'joys' a Thatcher government brought to Yorkshire and have no love for the Tories at all.

My biggest concern is that Corbyn has decimated Labour as a credible opposition, and surely a credible opposition is needed in our parliamentary system?

I think Labour will be pretty much finished as a party if Corbyn carries on, and god help us all if by some miracle he gets into government.

My Mum just retired from working at a primary school. By the end they had something like 25 different spoken languages there, with most parents not being able to speak a word of English. So trying to teach them anything was a nightmare as they had to keep getting things translated and stretched resources even further.

Zero hours contracts can work for some people, such as those who need to base it around child care or want a supplementary income. But for those who need a regular income or are the only provider they're a nightmare. Witnessed what they are really like at my last employer - tell people not to come in as soon as the work got low, but if any of the zero hours people said they were unavailable the attitude was "well they can't be bothered, we won't be ringing them again". So it's a totally one sided agreement. Same with the laughable apprenticeship scheme, which was an excuse to get people in to do the exact same work for half the money.

But the core Labour party still refuse to see the problem that uncontrolled immigration causes, or the anger from traditional working class areas. You would have thought Brexit and the rise of UKIP would have given you a clue, but instead they keep the blinkers on and sticking to the mantra that anyone who disagrees is a mouth breathing racist
