Also wasn't it said previously that speeches at Conference had to be approved by Milne beforehand? And I believe that when Starmer said this it wasn't part of the script. Which certainly implies it wasn't what had been agreed beforehand and Starmer was going off script and against McDonnell, Milne, McCluskey and presumably Corbyn here.
Unless something dramatic changes what matters is what Corbyn et al want not Starmer.
Nobody messes with magic grandpa.

Of course, it would be tragic if Starmer very sadly, accidentally brutally cut his head off whilst combing his hair.
Jezza will go with it, not least because it will not happen.

Fixed it for you.
Chairman Corbyn continues to enjoy the unanimous support of all commissars of the Politburo. The very uniformity of thinking was proven by the spontaneous flag-waving enjoyed by everyone later that same day.
The People's Labour Party remains utterly united. Everyone loves the Supreme Leader, and he loves everyone, even those misguided fools guilty of wrongthink get to enjoy their re-education in the luxurious camps of Siberia.

Is he, to put it another way, Elizabeth Holmes or simply your average startup founder?
If he invested a pound and it turned into a return of £ 1 million he'd tell the world he invested a penny and returned £ 10 million.
Says a Canada style deal will lead to the break up of the UK.

The prime minister has said a no deal Brexit would be better than a Canada-style deal proposed by rebel Brexiteers, which she claims would lead to the break-up of the UK.
Speaking during her flight to the UN General Assembly in New York, Theresa May also hit out at Labour, saying the party would "accept any deal Europe gives, regardless of how bad it is for the UK".
Asked directly by reporters whether no deal would be better than a free trade agreement like that agreed between the EU and Canada, Mrs. May said: "I've always said no deal is better than a bad deal, and I think a bad deal, for example, would be something that broke up the United Kingdom.
"What we've put on the table is a good deal. It's a deal which retains the union of the UK, our constitutional integrity, it's a deal which provides for no hard border between Northern Ireland and Ireland, protects jobs and enables us to have good trade relationship with Europe and the rest of the world."

Merkel said the terms needed to be nailed down now “concretely” in the speech to German industrialists in Berlin.
She told business leaders the goal was “to formulate future relations with the UK as concretely as possible”. She said otherwise the transition period would “very quickly become too short” to conclude what was likely to be a “very intensive” set of negotiations.
“Playing for time, I believe, also doesn’t help the business community, because the business community needs clarity,” Merkel said. “We have six to eight weeks of very hard work ahead of us in which we have to take the political decisions. A lot depends on what Britain really wants.”

Then we are all well and truly shafted.
The interesting thing is that so far she has a united cabinet which contains Brexiteers
If Raab, Gove, Mordaunt, or McVey resigned over her deal that would be her crisis but until that happens I see no chance of a resignation
And by worse, I mean Boris. Or Corbyn.
Wait for the tornado arrive, it picks you up and drops you off safely outside the minefield. I can't believe she could come up with such a successful and cunning plan.

The whole article is well worth a read too.
Asil Nadir: the Tories accepted a donation from a company which had significant legitimate businesses. The company subsequently went bankrupt because of fraud/theft by its ceo
Michael Brown: a convicted fraudster stole some money from pensioners. He gave some of that stolen money to the LibDems.
Fundamentally the Tories associated with an unsavoury character. The LibDems benefited from the proceeds of crime. Those are very different.
As I said, painted herself into a corner when she didn't need to. Yet again.
The divergence from the places they have left is dramtatic - and suspect. Life expectency in India in 2018 is 165th out of 228 countries at a little over 69 - not the 80.9 they found. In 2018, Pakistan is 169 out of 228 countries worldwide for life expectency at 68. By way of contrast, the UK is 29th at 81.
For example, the report doesn't cover mortality from anyone of African or Caribbean origin. I'm not sure you can rely on these numbers for UK wide effects on longevity. Somalia is 220th of 226 in the world at 53. Afghanistan 224th at 52. Both have recordable numbers present across the UK, if not perhaps in Scotland.

She is deluded and will lead us over the cliff.
I expect there's an element of RIADBEC after the way they trashed her own proposals in the summer.
So only a few minutes after Thornberry told the party it had to tackle its racist fringe.
I do think we need to increase immigration and I am relaxed from where it comes as long as they integrate into our communities

I expect this is tactically astute too.
Looks like this is just a "holding position" to get through conference.
I'm confident Jezza (who was eurosceptic before even Farage) will save Brexit for us in the end!
Ah. No. Got it. And surely RIADBSC is correct.
I think she was a narcissist and fraudster obsessed with her status and wealth
They went down to 8 seats.
There may be trouble ahead...
However if she denies Brexiteers the chance of trying for a Canada style FTA and a sustainable Brexit her days as Tory leader and PM are surely numbered
He will have seen the overwhelming support for remain in the conference hall today and the gauntlet Starmer has laid down and he may well come to the conclusion voting down TM deal could lead to a second referendum and the UK remaining. That would be a catastrophe for him so maybe abstain the deal and be out rather than risk remain
But it turned out that what she wanted was, if not impossible, incredibly difficult to do. Instead of reducing her aims, or refocussing, or just giving up, she continued in the vain hope that something would turn up. In the process she became a ratheer flamboyant fraudster. The obsession with status and wealth was always there (hence the 'I want to do something amazing'), but just grew when silly old men started fawning over her.
Others may have different opinions.
There is Zero chance of TM getting a deal through unless it is a customs union.
Surely you must realise Chequers or similar has no chance of getting through no matter how many wishes you use to make it so.
(You surely can’t mean TSE...)
As I've thought all the way along in the comfort of his own home (and the polling booth on 23rd June 2016) he's the biggest Brexiteer of them all!
